e bike consultion


Recommended Posts

Government failed to grasp the nettle, allowing illegal bikes on the road, grey imports etc.  So their response is to simply roll over and allow more powerful assisted bikes and twist and go full electric.  https://cyclingindustry.news/cycling-industry-alarm-at-government-ebike-regs-consultation/

Do respond to the consultation, I have

www.gov.uk/government/consultations/smarter-regulation-proposed-changes-to-legislation-for-electrically-assisted-pedal-cycles

I'd love to hear informed comments including those who think this is a good thing.  Cheers

Good news for the Deliveroo/Uber delivery riders.

Bad news for the fire brigade

Bad news for pedestrians

Good news for those who think e-bikes need to be registered

And given the reaction from them, clearly bad news for the UK bike/e-bike manufacturing industry that clearly isn't ready to support these new bigger e-bikes and/or sees market share erosion to them putting yet more pressure on the troubled bike manufacturing industry.

    • And that's good news for the existing cohort of state school children at those schools how exactly? A sudden influx of kids from the private sector will mean class sizes will grow and the most disadvantaged will lose out - remember a private school child moving to state is a double-whammy as they won't be paying the 20% tax and costing the state more for the state school place they will be occupying. Very, very unlikely - far more likely to make them even more elitist as it is the big schools like Eton (which massively skew the perception of private school in the minds of the masses) which will survive. It is the smaller schools that will struggle and many of those are not catering to the types who frequent Eton etc.
    • Hi!  I found a bank card on Ondine Road for somebody named Lynn. The bank is Asda money.  If this is you, please get in touch! Please include your surname in the response for security reasons 🙂 Kind Regards, E
    • Has anyone got several boxes you no longer  need. Would be gratefully appreciated.
    • They apparently have another office: https://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/register/organisation/?sraNumber=70939.  A Firm can't simply close down without arrangements in place to store/access deeds (especially Wills) and other important documents they hold, unless they have arranged to return them to the owner. The Law Society or SRA should definitely be able to help.
