Exciting news - today we can announce that we're trialling e-trikes! Powered by pedal and solar power, e-trikes could help to reduce CO2 emissions in urban areas. Look out for them delivering in Stratford, Cambridge, and Sutton Coldfield later this month.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers. The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

I can't think of any road in Basingstoke where that wouldn't be an absolute nightmare to use. Besides which, you'd return to find it up on bricks, or on it's side, or on fire round here. As every Postie I've shown it to has said, obviously designed by some dimwit who's never delivered a letter in his life.

Nice. Think an Olds Deliverance might have better carrying capacity. Hmm. Perhaps I could sell the idea of an electric version to daft delivery companies.

It'd make more sense than their electric rickshaw.

I can see it having trouble when we get really high winds.
