Still if the advantage is too great you might as well buy a motor bike. I've had a lot of them over the years too and they don't do much for aerobic fitness.

Leap tall buildings and fly like a bird.... Actually I'm not sure I do want a normal unpowered bike experience nowadays which is why I'm leaning toward the BB. A few years ago I wouldn't even think of buying an e bike but fings ain't what they used to be. I'm setting out the pros and cons, and...

Yes I read a post from a CD owner who said that was the way he did it. But as I posted above, doing that changes the experience of riding; and the nicest way to ride a normal road bike is to keep a steady cadence as much as possible and change gear frequently to keep to it. So having to change...

I'm undecided between those bikes too. While the CD will encourage pedaling it will also put a lot of stress on the drive chain components. The combined effects of motor and leg power make for pro rider levels of wattage going through them which would cause severe wear in a hilly area...

Really? Do you have one then, and how do you like it? I don't mind putting in some power and actually I want to, but I would be nice to know it did have that capability in reserve.

The inconsistencies you outline are just the product of a state which has no formal constitution and which just grew organically. It's only in recent years that some English people have started to think of themselves like that too. Very largely as a reaction to Scottish identity politics, as in...

I'm thinking of getting one of those too. I'm vacillating between that and a Sirocco CD which will be a different experience. I like the idea of the CD and being able to lower the settings and do a lot more work, but I also like the idea of just cruising around on the BB and and putting in leg...

That website is mainly for people wishing to take out British nationality, and there are now several categories of British nationality which were introduced to stop a post colonial influx of peoples who until those changes were all British subjects and able to settle here. For census purposes we...

Britain is the nation state, and my nationality is and always has been British since I was born. You can think of yourself as a Northumbrian, or a west countryman, or Welsh or Scots or English, but it says British on the passport.
