    Happy 2024 burners

    Welcome! An E biking area for E bikers and those interested in E Biking

    Sounds like some smart people behind it. A bit over $2500 AUD might be a good option for commuting using a hardtail and still be able to go out bush without it. I will be keeping an eye on them when released. Not going to pony up that amount, however, before it proves itself in the real world...

    Fathers Day

    For those who are fathers or even if you gifted your father today, what goodness did you get or give? I got a Pushys voucher, 2 Toblerones, Tim Tams, PJ's, note pads and a Dozen mixed craft beers. Beers are some I get most occassions like this and some new ones.

    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.
