Well done, Roy. I can't remember if I donated before, so I've done it now. "More enthusiasm than sense": there's a mantra for life if ever I heard one. 🙂

Well done Roy.
This caught my interest as I've very recently been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer and have also been looking at E-bikes!

I realise that you eventually ran out of battery but was this just with the standard battery, or with a range extender?
Any tips? E-bikes or PC!

Cheers

Roy was riding the Orbea Rise M20 which is the carbon model with the smaller battery 360Wh
V the Rise Hydro Alloy models with the 540Wh battery.
