Flipper. I like it. I think that most Americans call it a thingamabob, doohickey or the bent thingy. thingamabob noun INFORMAL used to refer to or address a person or thing whose name one has forgotten, does not know, or does not wish to mention.

Still going strong. Timeless designs. They got it right, but I’ll keep my Martins.

What were we talking about????

This thread was doomed from the time of its conception. It was off the rails by design. Just another troll stirring the waters under their bridge.

Because of the terrain, it seems that there is little need for a wide range of gears or electric assistance in the Netherlands.

I think that the latest incarnation of solarcabin/dashriprock/karen may have crawled back into their bunker, (mom’s basement). Be vewy vewy quiet.

Pretty wild looking ride. It must provide an interesting perspective.

I served honorably. I doubt that you can say the same. My oath had nothing to do with a twisted and reckless interpretation of the second amendment. You say that I am an oath breaker. Are you an Oath Keeper? You must be a very Proud Boy. I am tired of cowards that need to be heavily armed...

Arms does not literally mean guns. There is a reason for the term firearm. It’s because it is a specific type of arm. You can be armed with a knife. The second amendment doesn’t say firearm. This is not a gun forum. I understand that your gun probably helps you to compensate for your...

And the rest of the world doesn’t care what you think.

Read the amendment. It never mentions guns. It says arms, and never mentions firearms. My point wasn’t about the misinterpreted second amendment. It was about uncontrolled use of deadly weapons and your lame argument about inanimate objects. “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the...

Nuclear weapons are inanimate objects and also do nothing without human intervention, but that doesn’t mean that everyone should have one.

I was paid to become proficient with killing weapons. I get no pleasure from them and I don’t feel the need to own any. I am not the fearful type.

You are free to own and ride a cheap ebike. It sounds like it suits your purpose. Others, including myself have purposes that require greater range, better handling, lighter weight, good brakes, a good range of gears, decent build quality and basically a better bike. It seems that you are...

If they figure out that his “ebike” is really an illegal electric motorbike the kid and the family may have some bigger problems than just banned e-bikes. Liability wise, if you are breaking the law the consequences can be extreme.

One problem is that it is easier to ban all e-bikes outright than it is to learn about them and make common sense laws, (and enforce them). Parents that enable dangerous behavior should be held accountable as well. Whether pedals are present or not, if a vehicle is powered solely by a motor...

It’s not too surprising. They tried but failed at making rules regarding age and class, so instead they ban them all, (they chose the reactionary/easy way out). The woman that was involved wasn’t wearing a helmet and it sounds like the investigation is ongoing. My own feeling is that anyone...

https://kbindependent.org/2024/02/16/key-biscayne-bans-e-bikes-and-scooters/ A 12 year old boy on an e-bike collided with a woman on a bicycle. Two days later, there is a total ban there. Please read the entire article before commenting. It sounds to me like they are throwing the baby with...

Absolutely correct. This is not a law and it is not even out of committee yet. I don’t know what this guy’s problem is, but we don’t have a King or a dictator in New Hampshire, so I doubt that this bill will advance. The bill also requires a functioning brake light, a headlight that...

Good point. The only reason for leaving out the Class 2 was that many production Class 2 ebikes tend to be on the heavy side, (that may be a misconception on my part).
