Battistinis, Jenson Button drives for McLaren . . . . . .



Battistinis, Jenson Button drives for McLaren . . . . . .

A bit of four wheels rather than two but when it involves the first time in Formula One history that a team has started the new season with a line-up featuring the two most recent world champions, and is the first pairing of two British world champions since Graham Hill partnered Jim Clark at Lotus in 1968 it has just got to be posted here!

Jenson Button vowed to make the United Kingdom proud after joining Lewis Hamilton at McLaren to form an all-British line-up. Jenson added, "It's fantastic that we'll be forming an all-British line-up. I know that we both fly the flag with pride and I sincerely hope we can make the whole of the United Kingdom, as well as Vodafone McLaren Mercedes fans across the world, proud."

Good luck to you both JB and Lewis for the twentyten season as we know its gonna be a cracker that’s for sure!

Battistinis, Nicolai £5,200 electric bike . . . . . . .

Battistinis, Nicolai £5,200 electric bike . . . . . . .

A German designer has developed a €5,877 (approx £5,200/US$8,750) electric bike with help from Karl-Heinz Nicolai, who's more famous for his full-suspension mountain bikes.



Grace is billed as the 'world's first street legal e-motorbike'. It has two rear hub-mounted motors, powered by lithium ion batteries stored inside the frame, that produce 1,300w and can propel it at up to 45km/h (28mph).

It still has pedals and a chain, but designer Michael Hecken says that to ride it in the EU you'll need to wear a helmet and have motor liability insurance.

To comply with EU regulations, Grace has certified electric engines, brakes, tyres, headlights, rear light, brake light and horn. It's only specced with motors up to 48v. However, in theory you could bump the voltage up to 96v which would give you a top speed of 70km/h (43mph).



The frame is hand-made at Nicolai's factory in Lubbrechtsen from aircraft grade 7020 and 7005 aluminium. The massively oversized tubes (the down tube is 78mm in diameter) contain all the cables and the bike's Energy Storage System Module (ESSM) – 60 Li-ion cells arranged into five stacks.

Three different frames designs are available – Race, City or Universal – and there's a choice of three different motors – Sport, Flat or Mountain. Prices start at €5,877 (approx £5,200/US$8,750). Buyers can choose between 67 powder coated or anodised colours. For more details, see www.grace.de, or check outthe video below.

Battistinis, Volume Bikes Tate Roskelley . . . . .

Some of us here like to ride a 20” kid sized bike as much as a bike with a V-Twin bolted into it. With that being the case this great web edit being a true breath of fresh air from the usual backflip type videos we see online. From the hoop sunk at the beginning to the manual through the swings at the end its all about innovation on a BMX and simply put, this rocks!
