Re: Electric bikes and scooters
2So sorry to hear that Jim. It must have been really painful. I've nearly been hit a few times on the Newport foot bridge between Friars Walk & RP by pizza delivery bikes coming up behind me at a great speed.UPTHEPORT wrote: March 1st, 2023, 1:59 pm What a complete pain in the butt they are and someone is going to get killed being hit by one

4Nothing mature to add but I do chuckle when a nkob head falls off of one of them especially when pulling a 'wheelie'!

Unless the footage was speeded up their bike appeared to be going at a fair rate too.
Re: Electric bikes and scooters
8It appears that it was an electric off road bike capable of 40 plus MPH, bought as an early 16th Birthday present. No one from the police commissioner down to the person who bought the bike comes out of this particularly well. There is a reason why you need a road licence for this type of bike, so so sad for all directly affected.

9We know for a fact in our area drug dealers use lads to transport goods to the paying customers on these bikes
You see them totally disregard laws of the road some even riding on the wrong side of the road
They know full well that they won't get chased because they chose not to wear head protection

Re: Electric bikes and scooters
10I was reading earlier that some (unmodified) electric bikes can do 60mph.
