Careful, police forces are getting more aware of illegal ebikes with increasing reports of clamping downs

"80 year old thug has illegal bike seized."
"Because I need to get to the toilet quickly" defence not accepted

Or do I use a 40 year old moped as donor?
Then go legalish.

Fit a legal 15.5mph motor.

that sounds lovely

too bad we have to drive 100 miles to a beach. we've dreamt of living at the beach, but in reality we're happier where we are. it keeps the beach as a special place. this is just one of several that we frequent throughout the year

I'm about 800 miles, if you don't count Lake Michigan. I am a two hour train ride and about an hour's interurban ride from Indiana Beach on the South Shore Line. Which drops me right at the entrance of The Dunes.

+1 to that. The collection of licence points just isn't worth the risk imho.

At the moment I can't help thinking we got the better end of the deal...

Well, the Native American in me doesn't half disagree, but you all were rather rude at the time.

I looked and I think I'm closer to the Italian coast than the German coast.

Very useful that the BBC have a guide on the news app today about how to walk for 30 minutes. I didn't have a clue how to go about it before I saw that.

Completed a windy and overcast 30 miles this morning, managed to stay mostly dry. Its getting slightly brighter now I’m back. 17°, so no sign of any heatwave here, thankfully.

OK, who nicked the sunshine and turned the fans on?

Shopping completed in cloudy & blustery conditions which have continued for most of the afternoon. Made a bit of a fun extended ride of it with some offroading as well, doing triple the 6 miles the outing should have taken. The good news is that everything will just about go in the small overnight bag and with it forecast to be warm, Endure Hummvee baggy cycling shorts can securely carry things like phone, keys, old farts travel card, etc.

Constant drizzle of the sort that doesn't seem much but guaranteed to soak clothing in a few minutes. Now windy. One full size bike consequently still unboxed.

Theatre trip was good as was our granddaughter in her appearance's.

Afternoon cuppa went down well.

Need to decide what I want for my takeaway tonight

Just had a roe deer visit the back garden, a first as far as I know.
