Prometheus
I usually try to keep this website on topic (which at the moment is generally anything to do with motorbikes and bike racing), but I just saw the trailer to Prometheus earlier today and it’s looking fairly epic.

KTM Freeride E: ridden by Alan Cathcart →
A good article from CycleNews, the first real ride report I’ve seen on an electric bike. The basics: It’s equivalent to an 85cc frame (it’s compact), it’s about equal to a 125cc in power - but with double the torque from as soon as you twist the throttle (it’s just a bit heavier at around 100Kg, but it doesn’t burn fuel so the ideal weight distribution remains...
