I was tempted to type "He's just a very naughty boy!" :D .

Yes, disaster. :( .

But I didn't refer to that, I quoted you on grammar and punctuation. .

I can't agree. Large blocks of text on screen with no punctuation or capitalisation are often so difficult to read that I ignore them. The division between sentences is important, since when displaced, meanings can be changed. And good manners come into play as well. When someone is asking...

You'd better watch out for my nephew Mark then. Born in the south, after a lifetime career in the army, back in civvy street he's the range warden for the army's yorkshire lands, taking care of the environment. You mighty forgive him though, since he has a deep love for Yorkshire and was...

It's three-quarters gone, but today is National Kindness Day, so you've all got to be very nice to each other until midnight. :) .

The newest generation of bike dynamos that come with lighting systems from such as Busch & Müller and Shimano may well have much lower outputs to suit the greatly reduced demands of their LED lighting. That in turn will mean much lower drag. .

It's American then, Noah Webster compiled the American dictionary, he was their equivalent of our Samuel Johnson, and actually a better scholar. It was he who completed removal the redundant "u" from such words as colour, something Johnson had only half completed for the English language. .

That's the point, the output isn't anything like adequate for charging our batteries. It would just reflect the input you gave when you spun the wheel, a small effort for a small output. .

I'm guessing it's your use of bullyism, should be bullying. Maybe bullyism is an example of a Wooshism. ;) :) .

Hope so, it's holding up my plans for the next ten years! .

Tell me about it, I'm currently awaiting the results of X-rays and blood test to find out why I'm currently in a weakened state with breathing problems. Cheer up though Tillson, my death is much closer than yours. .

All been done many times, and on almost every occasion found not worthwhile on e-bikes. There just isn't enough mass or speed involved. All energy conversions involve loss, so it's far more efficient to use the kinetic energy in the bike to gain downhill sped wherever possible, often helping...

As I already posted, the necessary connectivity will be interpreted as the bike being motorised. Section LXX, page 395 contains a ban on any machinery including "engines" within 25 yards of the highway. The language in the 19th century was rather quaint when referring to motors of any kind...

That I don't know, my local Giant dealer never stocked the twin battery ones. .

These were sold in two versions, one with a single battery, the other with both. .

Given the huge number of transatlantic flights, ships helmsmen could ignore their compasses and just follow the white line on the sea. We'd need to agree with the USA whether we flew on the left or the right. ;) .

I'm afraid this wouldn't pass the legal test Dan, this excerpt from the requirements illustrating why: - - - where the output of the motor is cut off when the cyclist stops pedalling and is otherwise progressively reduced and finally cut off before the vehicle speed reaches 25 km/h; The last...

Sail and paragliding are out, since the Type Approval exemption from motor vehicle law is expressly for electric motor assistance only. .

It was this I was posting about, trade, I should have made that clear. In trade terms we have about the same total suffering as all the 27 together, clearly far more painful for us. In EU budgetary terms, of course they will suffer the differential between our contribution level and what we...
