I see Sir Clive Sinclair launched his new invention, The A-Bike, today. Hope it does better than the C5. Could you see anyone riding one of them across Caithness? Hmm...

What does the A-bike look like Pepsi? Have you got a pic? I remember the C5 & what a flop it was for Sir Clive. I never actuallly saw anyone in one,but I seem to recall all the comedian`s of the day ridiculed him for it also

Problem is, once it got in the shed, I don't think it would ever come out again:lol:

Just purchased an eco rider motorbike from the Royal Highland show. It runs on petrol, diesel or bio-diesel, 120 miles per gallon and we've got it with a tipping trailer. Does anyone have any knowledge/experience of these bikes? It has a ball hitch on the front as well as the back and reverse gear.
We have a trike but I wouldn't want to use it for fear of tipping over, this bike however feels more than safe and I won't hesitate to jump on when it arrives. It won the silver medal award at the RHS and has big wide tyres and good footrests, can't wait for it to get to Caithness.
It has been purchased already in a big way for agriculture and forestry purposes but they want photos of our Golden Guernsey goats with the bike for their website, up to now they have never sold to a goatkeeper!
Caithness has the first so will let you all know when they put photos on the website, will maybe send a pic of our Champion goat from Latheron show in the trailer. It's all good for Caithness.
