The same for me, which I why I haven't been pushing for treatment. Safer at home. .

Sorry to learn that Zlatan, I hope you are able to get the surgery. My problem is to actually get any treatment at all. My heart problem never went away and came to a head in Autumn 2019, but at the time the local NHS was overloaded with consultant referrals and the health trust had appealed...

More nonsense from you both. My health trust centre was the first in the UK to get the vaccine and that was triumphantly featured on TV. We were told our local priority groups of health and care workers and all over 80s would get their jabs before Xmas. I'm on the 'flu vaccine contact list...

This is only a trial with a view to possibly making them legal in future. It's already been said that if they are made legal the law will be stricter than the above, in particular following the slower Continental speed limit and not the trial's 15 mph. .

Have done for all your above posts Llívia. Thank you for the excellent photos. .

A lost bet I'm afraid, since the DfT have already made themselves clear on this subject. Faster e-bikers are already allowed using the S Class high speed pedelecs, but as I've explained above, they have to be registered as motor vehicles and there is no getting around that. The law cannot...

Sorry to have to break it to you, but the reason there were so few signing is that this won't happen, cannot happen. There's huge range of reasons why, but a key one is that everything else either limited to that speed or a little faster is in law a motor vehicle which has to be registered...

No, the car industry is completely innocent of anything deliberate in this. The origin was the sheer speed post WW2 with which the British public got away from cycling, switching to powered two wheels from the 1950s and into cars in the 1960s. By the 1970s utility cycling had virtually...

I have not been predicting no deal, only predicting that the deal will be no good and that is what has happened, only you are incapable of seeing it though your red mist of anti EU rage. Indeed thoughout both May and Johnson I've repeatedly posted that there would definitely be a deal, since I...

As a shop with little stock to sell. Just like those glorious EU free days before 1972 when we reached bankruptcy and had to get the IMF to rescue us. Napoleon was nearly right. .

Thanks for this Danidl. Delusional was precisely the word I intended to use in a reply to Zlatan's post but in the end I didn't bother to respond. I know from past experience that Zlatan's phobic hatred of the EU makes him unable to see reason and judge rationally in any discussion about...

That's the predicament, you in creating the pedelec are the manufacturer, just like anyone else who uses a proprietary Chinese frame with such as RockShox forks, Shimano gears, Tektro brakes, Continental tyres etc. But your own name might not be suitable for convincing a police officer. What...

Best wishes Helen and Russ nonetheless, and to all Pedelecs members. Even if the conventional greeting has become in truth: A Restricted Borismas and a Hancock New Year. :) .

Never ever take any notice of the governments published advice on e-bikes, they consistently get it very wrong. Only ever take notice of what the law actually says. To learn more about that read through my following two comprehensive posts, the second being an elaboration on points raised by...

In this respect that's true, we both got the free trade that was essential to each of us and fish never mattered anyway. But I feel you are missing the negatives. Services are essential for us and a huge part of our exports, but they are not included in this trade deal and still have to be...

Free greatly reduced trade. Honda gone, Ford Bridgend gone, Nissan like Honda announcing new models including e-cars will be made in Japan instead. Toyota will be next. This so called sovereignty has been bought at the cost of the loss of trust. .

Not true, the Great Repeal Bill of Autumn 2019 locked all prior accepted EU law into UK law, which includes the European Court being the final arbiter in numerous matters. And only hermits have a degree of sovereignty in the modern world. We certainly have nothing remotely like it, apart from...

That is definitely the wisest course, here's the law on labelling according to James Brown of the DfT International Vehicle Standards section: "As part of the GB EAPC amending legislation, that will come into force on 6 April 2015, the requirement for the marking identification has been...

Long gone I'm afraid. The original members map administrators left pedelecs long ago and I am the only one left updating it, originally only as a volunteer to help them. As I'm not the administrator I've no idea how to admit anyone else to help or how to get a replacement for myself since at...

The car charging point companies already resell their units of electricity with very large profit margins to build their networks. .
