On balance, I still am not a fan of e-bikes (previously known as ‘I just don’t get E bikes’)

That would've been so cool. What would you call it if you got big air on the moon?

The fact that his name isn't Dick Hymen depresses me

and I have just come across this picture of someone having huge fun on an e-bike

WHAT IS HE WEARING !!!??!
Do e-bikes cause permanent sartorial breakdown?
And why is he being following by a ball of plasma?

I see this quite often, where someone is quite prepared to spend 3grand on a ebike, but no more than a tenner on a helmet?

I'm looking at the pic and wondering what's wrong Wear what you want, and don't give a damn what others think. The helmet is perfectly functional - especially for a bit of rough track riding.

Ebike bad - poke with stick and run behind bush
emotorbike really bad- do not poke with stick, just hide behind bush
bicycle good- invite in to cave and make little bikes.

argument over?

Come on, Novocaine, where’s the fun in rationally resolving an irrational discussion…?

Good point.

 

[Sir Neil d'Menture]

Good point.

A pointy stick.

I don’t think Ebikes are bad. They help many people get out riding who are either disabled , unfit or too lazy to ride a normal bike.

However they are the devil …..
