I found this site the other day when I was looking for information about solar panels for my campervan. It may be of use to someone who's thinking about a solar powered ebike. Not UK based, unfortunatly. Solar bike panels solarebike .

Just been up to Tesco’s and had an experience that made me laugh. Our Tesco’s is close to a busy road junction that has seen numerous accidents and at lease one fatality. Public pressure has forced (the powers that be) to change the dangerous “T” junction into a big round about. The work...

After spending £1250 (or so) I should think something free should be thrown in. I hope you enjoy your free subscription. Didn't get any freebees with my bike :( .

I see all is not rosy in the world of congestion :eek: Supercar company Porsche is launching a legal challenge to London mayor Ken Livingstone's new congestion charge. Porsche Challenges Congestion Charge - Yahoo! News UK .

Thanks John (Aldby) I am now marked on the map :) .

I must have missed something. I have gone to Google Maps after signing into the forum. But I can't see how I can I add myself to the map. This may be a stupid question but - do I have to sign in to Google Maps (setup a membership)? Or what? Any help would be appreciated. .

I managed to find a longish (flat) bit of road today, to try out the bike (instead of the usual hills). Bike went well with full throttle and 4th or 5th gear selected. 6th was too high and resulted in the motor fading out as I reached 14mph. 5th seemed the best gear. So judging by that, the...

I have added my location and part of my Post Code - but I expect many already know I log-in from sunny Cornwall. I've also added my home web page to my profile. But don't all visit it at once, otherwise it shuts down if too many visitors visit. If it's not viewable, try again in an hour as...

Being rich is something that will never be a problem with me living and working in Cornwall :rolleyes: I do hope your right - as I want to be riding my ebike long into the future :cool: .

It will in the short term - but what about the long term? I seem to remember when petrol cars out numbered diesel cars and diesel fuel was cheaper (described as being "more green - need less" if I remember correctly) everyone switched to buying diesel cars. Then someone in the Government...

What, you mean all dressed up like this? - (Me2) Of course sometimes I get surprises on the cctv - (FlyBy) .

Thankyou Ian, for that information. Not sure I will ever do a coast to coast on a bicycle – did it once on a trail bike (green laning – and was that hard work). Not for the faint hearted I can tell you. I would love to cycle to work. But as I live less than 70 feet from the front door of the...

Are cycle lanes a good thing or a bad thing? The news about London going even more green for cycles is good news. However I think it will have little impact on places like the southwest (I mean past Exeter) were all we face is steep, long hills. As for the cycle lanes we have here – they...

Very interesting Ian - When you got 30 miles on the Trial, how much input (peddling) was there and what amount of throttle did you use? I'm not sure if I should go for half throttle or full with peddling in top. I seem to be either full (bloody hills) or none (flat, smooth tarmac - bliss). I...
