I've written previously about one of my trips in Israel and Europewith my Freedom Ebike and wanted to share another travel experiences which illuminates the amazing freedom and flexibility that our electric bike kits give you, especially when installed on a Brompton folding bicycle.
When I was in Australia recently I had to spend a couple of days in the NSW country town of Collarenebri, where I am installing a number of solar PV systems. My house in Coogee in Sydney is about 10km from the Airport and my flight left at 7am. |

Ever wondered about transporting children on a bicycle? There are a number of options that can be used alone or in combination: a) rear child seats; b) front child seats; c) child trailers for 2-3 kids; d) riding double.
I've tried all except b) with much success and the kids love it. Its also quite safe as long as you don't ride too fast and are aware of the extra size and weight. However all of these options significantly increase the power demands on the rider such that its very difficult for normal people (ie not Lance Armstrong) to take multiple children in hilly terrain. |

I thought I'd share with you my recent
trip in Israel and Europe as an excellent example of how a good
quality folding electric bike can transform the way you travel.
I had a wedding on a somewhat isolated
Kibbutz in central Israel on Sunday night then my nephew's Bar
Mitzvah (Jewish coming of age ceremony) in Strasbourg France on
Monday night and Tuesday, then Eurobike 2010 on Lake Constance in
Germany on Wednesday & Thursday returning to Israel on Thursday
night / friday morning.
I have a Brompton M3L-X (Kojak tyres)
with Freedom Ebikes electric conversion (it's our demo bike). |
