I saw a bike that had 4500w come into the shop todayjasonc wrote:had an ebike overtake me on bicentennial bikeway this arvo. I averaged 39 along there. He overtook me like I was standing still. Caught up to him at Sylvan Rd lights. He didn't like my suggestion that his bike was producing more than 250w

What's so hard to understand about "It's a f$cking bike lane, don't stand in the middle of it!"?

That's "Night Fury".jasonc wrote:here's the culprit

Turns out he lives around the corner from me. 1500W DIY project. Very quite. He's quite responsible with it by my observations though.

Maybe for youjasonc wrote:i didn't say he wasn't responsible (this is the commute thread, not the dumb cyclist thread). passing me at 50km/hor over barely pedaling gives away that it's more than 250w....

Yep - Night fury is pretty quickjasonc wrote:if it was a velomobile, 250w would have been quicker than me. but this was pretty much a BSO. even for you luke
PS Jason - my new velomobile is on a ship which just docked into Brisbane this morning. I should have it by next weekend. Full carbon and more aero = lighter, stiffer, faster. On the flat, it should be about 10km/hr faster than my old velomobile. Climbing performance should also be much better. Please keep to the far left of the path ...

if I had that much power, I'd mostly stick to the road.

Saw a couple this morning on Rathdowne St. The worrying thing is that it's becoming normal to me and I'm no longer surprised.cancan64 wrote:Still surprises me how many cyclists are out there in the dark and rain with no lights
