Electric transport on the road
It is with great pleasure that I inform you, dear reader, that Cafe Lumiere now has electric transport on the road! Hence forth, the proprietor of the cafe has the option to use the electric moped as a mode of transport to and from work: it can also be used for pleasure purposes. Pictured on the right is me riding it for the first time on the public highways of Sussex! Easy Rider eat your heart out!
The moped will do about 25 mph-30 mph and goes rather well up hills. Cost to fill up, about 2-5p depending on how much you pay for electricity. A full charge will be enough to take one about 20-25 miles. An additional perk of this vehicle is that the tax disc is free! How about that?! I am very pleased with the moped and I hope soon to get a back box to put supplies for the cafe in - perhaps some jam tarts!
I love this moped I hope you love it too!

I like it a lot! I did think that it would be bigger than that, but I still think it's a good buy. Obviously more speed would be nice, but that's a price worth paying for efficiency like this.
Electric mopeds are an expanding business and now come with a variety of sizes and capacities. For about £1000 (new) you can get a moped that looks like a conventional one, but which is powered by electricity and will do about 30 mph. There are high powered models which will do 40 mph, (http://ecomoped.com/bike-spec.html) and even electric motorbykes that will do 60+ (http://www.electricbikesales.co.uk/shop/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=598)

for a pretty good line up of the available mopeds, but more are always being added, especially from Japan.
