In Australia or California maybe! :) .

It cannot solve the problem and I've described the drivers limitations on mirror use. For example, a mirror to cope with a cyclist just forward in that blind spot would have to be at the rear of the n/s door window and facing forward and downwards. A further mirror to cope with those close...

I decide at an early age that the insulting "Jack of all trades, master of none" was actually desirable in our complex modern world to be able to understand sufficiently all that affects our lives. So often claims like twenty years experience mean in practice one years experience twenty times...

Unfortunately Rob, that area is "blind" to the driver of the truck types in question. It's under the mirrors or a bit forward, and there are demo videos online showing this. One featured on TV showed how a number of cyclists can be positioned in "blind" areas around that type of truck, all...

It seems that's true of most of the country. I worked at Epsom for a couple of years and hated race days, traffic chaos! .

Thanks Mike, but I still won't bet on them. :) .

They are doing the wrong things as I've said in the fifth paragraph of my post, and as I've constantly said, it really doesn't matter what that is. What really matters is that they should stop doing that, and that is my aim. As for the knowledge, I've lived in London virtually all my life and...

Maybe Rob, but it was announced on some news bulletins before the race that the bookies stood to lose around £50 millions if Tony McCoy won, hence my sayng they sighed with relief when he came in fifth. I never bet on horse racing so know nothing about the odds distribution. .

At over 70 years I did a number of circa 60 mile rides which included the hilly North Downs, using multiple batteries on an eZee Torq. Five years later that was becoming a bit too much though, since when it's been more local .

Yes, the bookies, they breathed a sigh of relief when A P McCoy came in fifth. Well done on your gain though. .

Very true, but it does mean the vehicle was there first so in the present context of the discussion, it doesn't trap a cyclist alongside. .

In that case Matt, from Powacycle, the suppliers of the Milan 2. Here's the details: FOR AFTERSALES SUPPORT AND TECHNICAL QUERIES email: support@powacycle.co.uk - tel: 01279 416176 .

1) Can I still buy an E-bike with a throttle prior to Jan 2016 and still use it legally afterwards? Technically no if it hasn't been type approved, but I don't see this being enforced before January 2016. For example dealers still have existing stocks and they normally have a period of grace...

But why no chargers in those cases, the dealers disposing would clearly know of their presence and the need? .

You really are not up to speed on this subject John, there have been many changes. I'm surprised that you mention that truck sides could have transparent panels inserted, when many have already had them for years. I was occasionally driving a high cab truck like that in the early 1980s. There...

A legitimate source of such charger-less e-bikes results from deaths of the often elderly riders. When their estate is disposed of, those doing that will often be ignorant of the need for a charger with the bike when it is sold off. .

Indeed, and therefore having no significance or importance in an overwhelmingly non-biological universe. .

I'm not being rude, just commenting on your insistence on avoiding the point of my posts and this thread. I've already covered your point as shown below. I mentioned my own observations and the various videos I've seen, and they all show the very common practice of riding up into the nearside...

Oh dear! London's cctv coverage is is extensive now that virtually everything is captured, I've just been watching the crooks making off over more than one stage with the proceeds of the Hatton Garden raids for example. Armed with this information and some witnesses, in the great majority of...

You stagger me John, you appear determined to divert from the real problem. None of this is relevant. When a large number of cyclists are performing the same function and one fifth of them have 16 times the death rate of the other four fifths, those deaths are caused by that one fifth's...
