Being pedantic what were they most top out around 185mphI've been on motorcycles capable of 200+ mph on the road, but doesn't make me a good rider..
Ok - lets have a higher limit for eroad bikes, and for those who can ride bikes properly and can ride responsibly. I've no idea how you'd enforce or administer this.
As has been pointed out so many times, if you want to plough into pedestrians on pavements there's no limit on unassisted bikes, or ebikes over 15mph. Much of my ride earlier today was over 15mph - hard work!
There are a lot of people who have said they don't support a higher limit, some ebike riders and some ordinary bike riders, so I assume these people all ride responsibly and have regard for other uses, and if the limit was to be raised their behavior wouldn't change.
So why is it they think if the limit is raised we are going to be overrun with crazy ebikers.
As I said before, make helmets mandatory before worrying about increasing the speed of assisted cycling.

Just licence E Bikes, Simple.
Because licensing car drivers works does it?
Doesn't guarantee the licence plate is on the correct vehicle though.Because licensing car drivers works does it?
