Electric bikes? Shocking! Watt can they be thinking? I have a battery of questions for them...
A trifecta of Pre-Unit Bullets: a Red Deluxe 500, a Green Standard 500, and a Black ES 350.

That's the way of the world, there will always be those japes that get their jollies applying impedance to progress. If it works out though, Anand Mahindra might likely receive induction into the Britbike Hall of fame. As a person of good breeding, one imagines he would have the capacity to accept such honours gracefully... 8)
