Great feeback and as is said, interesting, but, "the bike goes rally speed" - I wonder what that means?
- not 170 kph ![]() It may have some way to go, and it would also be interesting to know the time/distance you can cover on a charge - solar power next

Merci Pat!
loving the idea of a gear box on an electric bike must be a treat with all that torque but I am not sure I understand the need for it other then simulating a standard moto experience. That may be a topic for another thread all together but I am curious about your thoughts on it. Whenever you folks release more info on it please let us know. Keep doing what you do - you are an inspiration! Quote:

Here we go - looks like the Moroccan food reputation is true
![]() From Safaribergs FB 18 hours ago Ben was due to be the first bike away today, but unfortunately he picked up a severe dose of food poisoning last night and will now sit out today to be able to recover. He is planning on restarting tomorrow. Given his very weak state the risk of pushing on today and maybe crashing was too high given Dakar is now so close. ![]()

Is "abandone" french for "holding onto the toilet seat for dear life...!?"
![]() Maybe the "Maroccan Roll" torrent went through a good portion of the competitors?
