Electric Mopeds

    Hi,

    I usually bicycle to work (cross city, about 30 mins), but am looking for an alternative so I can take days off cycling to go to the gym etc.

    I am thinking of getting a moped and am especially interested in electric mopeds.

    I read a fairly unflattering review from the Irish Times, but then again I have read other reviews that didn't mention any of the problems this guy had (like the delay in acceleration :eek: ).

    Does anyone have any personal experiences or opinions with electric mopeds?

    I know of a guy who crashed into a pedestrian who walked out in front of him.
    He has since bought a "noisy" moped. Lesson learned.

    That was one thing that worried me. Plus car doors opening suddenly etc. That said, as a cyclist it's no different. I'm used to dozey pedestrians.
