The best e-bike systems are now achieving 60mile ranges on single batteries and have controllers sophisticated enough to just compensate for the trailer making the bike feel as though unloaded.

I still wouldn’t go near one with a bargepole mind.

Top Gear would also love it!

Paging Regulator; Regulator to the camp courtesy phone please.

You've just reminded me of Regulator's mad moment.

I didn't realise that there had been multiple mad moments
