Latest news on ebikes. The anti bike mob have discovered home made ebikes go faster.
Still any publicity is good. The bit at the end puts a good light on them.
Electric bike a 'life saver'
The lycra set may sneer at what they consider e-bike 'cheaters', but many of those who ride them, swear by them.
Seriously overweight, Mr Tallar purchased an electric bike three years ago to use riding to work.
He has commuted 30 kilometres a day to work since.
"I've actually lost something like 35 kilos," he said.
"I was 170 kilos when I first started, and to be honest with you I think to myself that I might not even be here if I didn't start riding.
"It's made me a lot happier person - my children have noticed."
