And relatively quick.

And people were just bored of it…
Really not a good time to be hit by a motor vehicle (is there ever…)
Or have a heart attack. (Same)

Wellgo do a huge range, there might be something that looks road enough to you yet still has enough grip.
Getting them might be a bit more complex though…

They will not reinstate the 5p drop just before a potential election.
Rishi might not last a week, let alone the next year. Some one is gunning for him. The unkempt slob denies it’s anyone at No 10, but seeing that he seemed completely oblivious to some raucous parties going on In there, some of which he was at, I’m not convinced by his pleading…

Small, light and more
Small, light and more efficient cars are just not wanted anymore, or so it seems.
Because of “range anxiety” car owners seem to want 2-300 mile range, or that is what the car company seem to sell them. That means transporting huge weight of batteries meaning more weight which then needs more batteries. When most journeys are only a few miles, and even 50 miles would be a huge amount to drive on a daily basis. Perhaps removable battery packs for that very rare occasion that the really need the range would work.
I think it might be in Singapore, they did an emoped scheme that you never charged the battery, when getting flat you’d visit a hub remove the old battery and pick up a fully charged one, shove it in and away you went. Negating the problems of charging in apartment complexes.

There was a bit in the graun yesterday on the new electric hummer, four and a half tons.
Are us tons different to our tons?

Luckily it’s not that high, tends to be about 50 a year on pavements verges and crossings. Most get killed crossing the road, I would suppose. With the police of course accepting the “nothing I could do about it” line.

I brought my brother one if the Italian bar end mirrors many years back, but never asked how he got on with it.
I have seen, in adverts, a mirror that installs on the down tube, where the shifters used to be, and to use it means looking through the legs, just mentioning it so that such a thing exists out there.

But on a train you don’t have to concentrate what you are doing, you can gaze at the passing countryside, read a book (join and use your local library). Eat or drink, when mask usage allows. And any delays, read a few more pages, nothing to get to worried about.

When I was hit on the clockhouse roundabout, Farnborough, the investigating officer came to see me after I had got out of several nights in hospital, traffic officer I believe, he said that he knew how I felt as he had run over a kid on the roundabout outside the Farnborough police station…

Your endeavour seems interesting and I hope you succeed with your documentary.
Also posting so that it moves up the forum and hopefully gets noticed more.

If it works fully you will get to wear any sunglasses you want.
Though you might have to get some clear ones for riding at night.
