Btw there are conversion kits to make a normal road bike to an e-bike and are surprising affordable

24 miles (2 hrs for me - I'm not a fast cyclist!) or more cycle to work. As fozzy defended me (and others) not my choice. Wife needs fields. Not many of them in Central Edinburgh! When I lived 7 or even 12 miles I cycled or ran. Now train or since pandemic elec car (hopefully solar powered soon!) ![]() |

I still wonder about the output... My BIL, a capable cyclist, commutes to work on the flat going really quite fast... I am now tempted to go try out mine on the flat but no time to get to a flat-ishbit of road.. |

HG - would you be able to take public transport part of the way and then cycle the rest of the way when going in? The cycle highways in Edinburgh are pretty.

Think once you've done it a couple of times, you will enjoy the exploration and the freedom
