Hah, much the same as my link to the French car :laugh: Or more like an ariel atom without the speed I assume :laugh:
Without the speed, protection from accidents, range, style, anything really.... :laugh:

A few weeks back I mentioned an aquaplaning adventure with my motorcycle. Today it was unexpectedly slippery (newssites even mention the many accidents this morning) and this time the back-end of my motorcycle broke out. I was driving pretty straight at the moment (so no turn luckily) and I just went of the gas and it pulled itself back straight. I had many sharp turns coming right up, so needless to say I went at crawling speed through. Perhaps it was good I received the warning moments before :). I really need to move to a warm and sunny climate...

No, the dragons didn't like that one ;)

Sinclair claimed it remained "the best selling electric vehicle" as recently as 2010
Don't know what to say to this except, really? :laugh:
Well, at least you didn't have to pay a monthly rental for the batteries?

I do not think I would have been able to recover. If I did I too would have went slow through the curve. I need to ride more. But not at -4F.
Wimp! :laugh: http://31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lykxiz97AV1qli934o1_500.jpg[^] And http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lykwaioSNN1qli934o1_500.jpg[^] (neither of those are me, but I've ridden in worse - heated gloves or grips are a goooood investment)

...and you're not going to be in the lead for long either! :laugh: I dread the day someone decides to hook a caravan to the back of one... :sigh:
