I get scared for everyone else when I see them on the pavementOn roads?
I get scared for them oaps if I happen to see them on the road!

Assuming that I have understood this......
"Fast e-bikes" are those that exceed the regulations (typically 15mph)
They would be treated as in the rest of Europe
My village's drivers have helpfully protected everyone from that menace by parking all over the pavements.I get scared for everyone else when I see them on the pavement
Yeah, well, we (you and I ) would be cheating ourselves, because we know that we can cycle unaided.As to the OP - I didn't vote, but I would see it as "cheating" for me to use one, because it isn't what cycling is about for me, right now.
Or even for those who don't like cycling unaided. It's not for me, but so long as it harm no one, &cFor those who can't, better them being on an electric bike than on no bike at all.
You're buying a weirdo, I thought you already had enough of them round your way?Indeed. I have decided to buy myself one..

Pointless exercise, if you want to rattle along at 30mph legally, it's cheaper and altogether simpler to buy a manufacturer type approved moped.
One of the lads that works at our caravan site in North Wales has a petrol assisted bike. It will clock well over 40 apparently. He uses it on the NCN path to get to work, as we all know these things aren't legal. Not seen it yet, but my dad has.
I'll never forget the mobility pilot knocking my mum over in Blackpool about 10 years ago. She ended up with a gash over her eye brow that needed 7 stitches after a 3 hour wait in Blackpool Vic' A&E. I took the idiot's ignition key out and threw it across the road after he said it was her fault for not moving when he shouted at her to get out the way.Shamed to admit I wasn't far off battering one of the mobility pilots as he nearly ran over my 4 year old daughter no long back..
