In the 4 years that Trump was president, the US national debt grew from 20 trillion dollars to 28 trillion dollars and that before covid costs were added. Besides lowering taxes, there is little to say about what he has accomplished. It's clear that he borrowed to buy votes with lower taxes.

that's not surprising. No insurance company will insure an illegal bike. If you want to ride with ordinary cyclists or without helmet, you have to stay with 250W kits.

Jury punished Trump today in E. Jean Carroll case for 83 million dollars. If he carries on like he's been, he'd end up in jail for contempt of court. If he wants to appeal, he'll have to post bail. Where is he going to find the 83 million bond if he doesn't shut up? It's kind of ironic if a...

about the buses that caught fire, was it BJ who bought them 12 years ago?

Fires are real risk for the early electric buses but I am pretty convinced that electric buses are for the foreseeable future. From what flecc has explained, there is not much Saddique Khan can do other than finding the money for new buses.

The guy implies that the bus company Go Ahead London has several hundreds. That's why I wonder if they are TfL or someone else ordering without doing much homework. They started using electric buses 10 years ago, so it may be time for a refurb.

they are approved testing stations and there are not many around. There are about 40 testing stations for the whole of the UK. In Essex, there is only one in Chelmsford. They know probably more about motors than most of us do, so don't expect to argue the toss with them. The certificate that...

Any product advertised as EN15194 compliant, I am able to issue a CoC for it. The DWG22C kit we sell is EN15194 compliant unless the customer changes its speed limiter settings.

The guy wanted siddique Khan to do something about them fast but are they TfL buses though? If they are, then who bought them?

That's just the law. You can build a vehicle but to use it on public roads, your vehicle needs to be licensed. To have your ebike considered as an electrical assisted cycle which allows access to public cycle paths without insurance number plate and wearing of a helmet, you need as I said, a...

You've all heard about Trump's court case brought by E Jean Carroll. Trump's lawyers applied to the Appeal Court to dismiss the case against him on, wait for it, presidential immunity! His application was rejected.

An ebike is a motor vehicle. You can only ask for it to be considered as a normal push bike if it is conform to standard set in EN19514. A certificate is required for that and your supplier should provide it. Otherwise, your bike is considered a motorbike, you need type approval or submit...

If you ride on private land, you only have to answer to the land owner. If you ride on a public road, path or land, you have to answer to the law. You can't plead ignorance oe just say no to the police. The basic law is that your electric bike must have a certificate of conformity to EN15194...

How are you going to prove that your bbshd is programmed for 250w? There is nothing in the manual how to do that

to be fair to BJ, his legal bill is tiny in comparison to Trump who takes every opportunity to make his case worse (like in the E. Jean Carroll case) so he can claim to be victimised by Biden and all the left leaning media like ABC, CNN, CBS etc. His potential bills will run into hundreds of...

The government of Florida is trying to pass a new law to allow taxpayers' money to be used to pay for political legal costs, ie Trump's legal fees. The amount is fairly modest, 5 million dollars. If it passes, MAGA will try next time to increase it. I wonder sometimes if democracy is the right...

some do. I have been asked by customers in the past.

as far as I know, insurance only take on 250W bikes.

it's also interesting to note that for the traditional registered republicans, their most important issues are the economy, immigration, foreign policy. For MAGA, immigration tops the list, then tax, then the economy, then the role of catholics in society. On this, it's clear that traditional...

Did anyone follow the GOP primary in NH? Nikki Haley did OK-ish, losing 44% to 55% to Trump. The next battle ground is her home state, SC. It's interesting to watch the left leaning channel MSNBC talking up Haley's chances and advise her campaign team how to beat Trump. The problem for Haley is...
