Ex-pat Brit in NZ right?

The fact I think these look quite neat for some parts of my ride has me worrying about becoming an XC weenie.

Despite agreeing strongly that protest is critically important in society, I think there are much bigger things to fight against. However, as it happens I think the opportunity to rethink all our transportation is upon us. If the infrastructure assumption for ebikes was EU-wide 25kph bike lanes...

TOGS thumb rests maybe?

Can we keep the casual racism and homophobia off this forum please. And anywhere else for that matter.

And what are Forestal up to? I’m super curious about that.

The rise of the electric scooter (that can be derestricted) won’t help either. This are only used in urban environments and aren’t ‘assisted’ like a pedelec.
