might be on to something here.... :think1 selling back unused power from the bike to the grid at peak times, and charging the bike in off peak.  ;-* sort of like how the Hydro schemes work :whistle

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Just what you need for an long distance touring ride... plus a follow up car with trailer, loaded with spare charged batteries, a generator....?

Be prepared for an extended stop every hour or so to change/charge batteries...

Maybe strap a solar panel on your helmet?

Cant see any use for these outside of city area, and I am sure the boys in blue will approve of commuting at 350 kph on suburban streets  ...
