AWESOME!
I was just thinking yesterday that it was unbelievable no one had come out with a production electric bike.
This is great to see this going.
What happened to that Hydrogen fuel cell bike?

They have been available for a while now. Several manufactures. They are just not produced by one of the major bike makers.
Here is one line of them

".....no gears, no clutch to worry about." I'm sorry, but I'd be worried that I'm losing them. The smell of the exhaust, the sound of the exhaust, the feel of slipping the bike in gear. I get misty eyed when I smell the exhaust on my clothes..... :roll:
I had to look up what fly tipping meant (the sign behind him). How in the heck did you Brits come up with that expression :lol:

I think it comes from "Tipping on the fly..."
Doing anything "On the fly.." is said to be being opportunist, or exploiting an opportunity, so fly tipping is dumping anywhere you're not supposed to when the opportunity arises.
Hell, I was born here and sometimes I don't understand... :roll: But the wife would say it's just my age... :oops:
Even more interesting, I assumed fly meant the little flying critter and tipping was to leave a little something for them like you do your waiter/waitress/bartender (of course they want money 8) ). At least in the states we call it tipping for service (or gratuity), you guys may have another term for it.
