E-bikes could get faster, more powerful and not require pedaling, in a move announced today by UKGOV. Cycling organizations are opposed to the plans.

    The people that upvoted you clearly did not click either of those links. I also thought the commenter sounded like an old fart who was amazed at electric “kick” scooters. But then I clicked the link before writing a whole comment about it.

      I didn’t click the link either, but yeah I’ve never heard of mopeds referred to as “e-scooters” before, but I guess that could be a regional thing…

        You’ve never heard a Moped be called a Scooter before? Dude put “scooters” in quotes. He was trying to convey it in a brief comment. You wrote out a huge, condescending reply instead of clicking the links. I think that’s on you mate.
