Your ebike is limited to a max 250 motor, which must cut out at 15mph, but you're free to buy an Audi R8, capable of 200mph, with a 600bhp engine

Can you not see how batshit crazy that is??
Drivers kill 42 pedestrians per year on the pavement (many of them children) but you want to scream at cyclists on the pavement?
Do you not realise how unhinged that makes you look?
Almost half of ALL head injuries are sustained inside cars, despite seat belts, crumple zones and air bags, but you think calling for car helmets is stupid, while you say cyclists riding without flimsy polystyrene hats somehow have a death wish?
Do you know what evidence is?
Why is it even legal to drive a car, or motorcycle, that can do 200mph? The max speed limit is 70mph!
Why do we not have laws limiting the max speed a vehicle can have?
Now awaiting the inevitable onslaught of "Stop messing with muh rights, you commie bastard!" from those with insufficient brain activity
I've added a blog post to go with this, at http://willcycle.blogspot.com 
If your response to the points I raised are emotional, sit down & have a think about why YOU get angry when someone suggests you shouldn't exceed the speed limit, then seek help for your anger management & your emotional investment in cars
