The ban won't last very long because sodium batteries will be used on bikes; sodium batteries don't catch on fire.

As if gravel cycling is defined by racing 🙄. Oh that’s right, gravel racing is the end of the Spirit of Gravel, so gravel has finally arrived in Britain? Is it too late? 😂 Hello.

Another kneejerk anti-cycling brain fade. Unless they ban all lithium battery powered devices on trains, it’s blatant discrimination. Homemade e-bikes should be illegal everywhere anyway. As should dodgy cheap lithium powered anything bought from junk websites. It shouldn’t be a train security issue. It’s a worldwide policing and cheap crap market regulation issue.

We’re giving people real choice in how they travel by making buses, trains and active travel cheaper, more reliable and easier to access – including lowering the bus fare cap to £2, freezing rail fares, and investing £4.5bn in cycling and walking But we're subsidising drivers by abolishing the fuel price escalator, so that drivers can be assured that we're not serious about this 'Active Travel' bollocks and are encouraging people to drive everywhere whenever they like

@Smiley775 The attitude of Guernsey drivers is a worrying example of how bad driving behaviour can get accepted as the norm just because everyone else does it and there’s no control or general thought to stop it Just as well I have no interest in a holiday on the Channel Islands because it would clearly, as regards cycling, be just the same as being at home in Lancashire, except that it's nothing to do with driving on the pavements- it's Panzers and Stagecoach buses.

@Ramz "take it in my hand luggage when I fly" Unless your e-bike battery is less than 160Wh you're actually forbidden from bringing it onto a plane. And between 100Wh to 160Wh requires approval in advance from the airline.

In visiting Guernsey I've experienced the driving on pavements. It's bad. Drivers don't slow down to do it cautiously - they just carry on using the pavement as a bit of road overrun at full speed. It obviously makes the pavements hazardous in places. The locals say there's no choice due to narrow roads and large cars. But the narrowness is no worse than many places near me on the mainland - but here drivers are (currently) wary of mounting pavements and, if done, are cautious. The attitude of Guernsey drivers is a worrying example of how bad driving behaviour can get accepted as the norm just because everyone else does it and there's no control or general thought to stop it.

@ROOTminus1 apparently they never ever do and if they did it is by definition your fault, for which the post office may pursue prosecutions. At least, those are the rumours I heard.

@chrisonabike Does the "Post Office" approach also have a carte-blanche pass on any Fujitsu products no matter if they are demonstrably defective and having life-altering impacts on hundreds of people?

The world has gone mad, smoke and mirrors here, it's The Emperors new clothes all over again with this tent. £530?! Seriously? For a bit of woven nylon and earths most abundant metal?! I cannot believe this hasn't already drawn more scathing comments. Big Agnes if anyone buys one of these they're an utter mug and you are completing the heist of the epoch. Everybody get real FFS. This is on parr with £400 cycling clogs, ridiculous content. April 1st was a few months back.
