@jonburkeUK @edwardjtaylor £650 for mine for three children. £50 for the bike, £300 motor, £300 battery. Note: photo is prototype; wasn't used like that!

Some time ago, I posited the idea that a cargo bike capable of transporting a small family would be transformative. I've found that bike. Now we need manufacturing scale to get it below £1000.

@weegie_wummin @n00dles71 The language is usually if you cancel *after* 14 days have passed (blah blah blah)--so you might be ok to do it today?

@LegoLostAtSea Interesting. Those with foot (not boot) pockets likely to be from warmer places. You'll not get many pairs which makes reuse hard; maybe a market for single-finned divers who have lost one! Some are worth ££ as a pair-e.g. black one on the right mid worth £170 or so. Dive clubs?

So many fins washed up from the deep. What to do with them all - seems a shame to take them to the household waste/recycling centre.

@marksuttonbike Cheers, would be very interesting to see what the official answer for retrofit is, could have a massive impact

@marksuttonbike The article is in agreement with 99% of what I've read, however I also saw this 'counter' article which has a different conclusion --any thoughts on this?

@edi_dot_bike @KirstyLewin @LovetoRide_ Definitely requires a bit of thought but well worth it. There's different design and different quality from the few I've tried but once right, they are excellent

Thought I'd try cycling every day in January - even if it's just a mile or two on some days. Logging rides on @LovetoRide_ to keep track of them. I may need some motivation on some days! Anyone like to join me? Virtually is fine 😀

Whoop whoop 😁 We have the newest member of @WorldBollard on duty at the East Craigs Rigg / Maybury Rd cut through. So much more accessible than the previous tight chicane for 🚶‍♀️👩‍🦽🚴‍♀️ Thank you to those who helped make it happen 👍 @Mr_Mark_Brown @EuanHyslop @edjthornley

@JohnFarquhar74 @soon_slim @david_mccraw It is but lots of folk don't bother. The council had proposed speed cushions on Bridge Rd which would have enforced lower speeds but instead we continue with speeding drivers.

@soon_slim @david_mccraw I'm getting confused now (easily done), Colinton already is a 20mph zone, from St Cuthbert's to the bottom of Gillespie Rd, isn't it? If it's not, that'll explain why everyone is up my chuff when I pootle along at 20 🤔

@whatjoewrote Dunlop valve, should be pump up-able with a Presta pump I think

Or rather, a pump that fits it.

Anybody know what kind of valve this is, and can they bring one to my house in the next couple of hours? Having a logistical nightmare today.
