Some updates re electric bikes. For me, the sound of a bike should make you want to throw your pants up into a tree, so these aren't really for me.... but interesting nonetheless.

Mission Motors unveiled the bike, dubbed Mission One - 150MPH...

One lap of Isle of Man huh? Guess the batteries won't last any longer.  It will probably sound like a hairdryer convention.

The czysz was out at PIR the other weekend... it sounded pretty cool... there are some you tube vids of it too.
