@Rendel Harris I've edited the first post to avoid this misinterpretation.
@IanMK It's a common fallacy that driving laws don't apply in car parks. They are accessible to the general public, and driving in them is subject to the same laws as anywhere else. If you want to neck a bottle of whisky from Tesco and do donuts in the car park, you can still be convicted of drink driving.
@Nigel Garage Completely ignoring the fact that you said the black woman was only in power because of "the population of London being made up the way it is". You are a racist and have proved so on numerous occasions under your other aliases. Deny it as much as you like, everyone who has been on this site for a reasonable length of time has seen it.
@Terry Hutt they were on a vehicle that was limited to maximum speed of 10mph, it's almost impossible that they were going "too fast to stop" - and indeed the defence doesn't even appear to have tried to argue that. Instead appear to have queried the possibility that he "didn't realise in time that she was stationary". Which is a pretty staggering claim. But the prosecution "expert witness" appears to have agreed this was a possibility. Which makes me wonder how many stationary cyclists this expert witness has actually seen. They are really quite difficult to mistake for moving cyclists. Or how familiar he is with the vehicles moving at 10mph. That's over 1/3 slower than the maximum legal ebike speed. To state the obvious, It's really not very fast - and you would have to be very distracted indeed to be unable to stop in time But there we go - Centreparcs is now on a mission to ensure that its staff are made safer, by ... *checks notes* ... encouraging staff on stationary bikes to always ensure they have a helmet on. Because that's what will make the difference.
@Rendel Harris in Rendelworld, am I allowed to disagree with anyone who isn't white? Or is that not allowed? Because I seen to remember you disagreeing with loads of minority ethnic people publicly in the past. Or are people allowed to disagree with right-leaning ethnic minorities but not left-leaning ones? As for your ad hominem attack "you're stupid", it just reveals you have nothing substantive to argue and are deflecting.
@Nigel Garage Of course Nigel, you just slagged off a black politician and said how atrocious it is that people like her are in power, then said "what do you expect with the population of London being made up the way it is?" and you weren't referencing race in the slightest. As I have had occasion to remark about many of your aliases in the past, it isn't that you're so stupid that's really aggravating, it's the fact that you assume everyone else is as stupid as you and will fall for your bullshit.
@lesterama Indeed. The essence really does not boil down to a sticker even if that is the only uniquely Colnago in these bikes. The Steelnovo is more like it - wish they'd make a review here (being a ROAD bike and all) - just for shits and giggles - I could not afford that one either.
@Rendel Harris no idea what you're talking about. I'd have said the same about any number of politicians in the UK, including some in the Tory party, regardless of their race. So not a "racism" issue at all, just a common sense issue, and how typical of you to see something that doesn't exist. If you watched the video rather than throwing insults around, you'd notice the guy she was arguing against was black. I'm assuming you don't agree with him, but I wouldn't be so childish to shout "racism" if you said so out loud. It's just a way for you to ignore the substantive content of the post. We have massive issues all over the UK and Europe, turning countries into powder kegs of civil unrest, yet some politicians obsess about non-sensical stuff like this, when the clear outcome of pushing people onto unsuitable forms of transport would be worse growth, more unemployment and therefore fewer tax receipts and lower government spending power on the things we need. Yet this takes place with the blessing of many local voters who appear to live in ivory towers, blissfully unaware of how many people actually live, work and function. This is - after all - the same city that spawned politicians like Jeremy Corbyn and so forth... And I'm pretty sure Jeremy Corbyn is a white British guy.
It feels strange to me that someone would come on a site about e-bikes to explain how you can't do things with e-bikes.
@StevenCrook motor vehicles are completely immune from tool theft?...
