So i'm out today for a spin when a cyclist flashes past me at some great speed. Im always up for a chase so I pick it up and try and catch his wheel. Before I know it im doing 28 mph and only just hanging on..and the rider in front is in jeans wearing a rucksack!

I had a similar encounter during the summer - spent ages trying to reel in a cyclist ahead of me and was completely amazed when I got close enough to spot he was in jeans/jacket etc (poor eyesight :sad: ). I finally managed to catch him (not doing 28mph though!) and he was laughing his cock off as I finally passed - dripping sweat and swearing! :smile:

if you can do 28mph on an electric bike then why get your licence and a scooter and tax and MOT and insurance plus fuel after all that just to go 30 MPH?

you sure about his 'full carbon banchi'?

Ive had electric bikes they are suppose to be able to do 15 mph over that guess they have to pay tax maybe this guy had a souped up illegal one
