Good morning and welcome back to The Fast Charge, the electric motoring newsletter. I’m Tom Riley.
Today is a special newsletter. Not only is it the 20th edition - thank you to everyone still reading - but I’ve also got quite a juicy story.
Sadly, it’s not about cars. But it is about electric bikes that are being converted by couriers at home using kits bought online. Though a great way to reduce costs, I’ve discovered that many are installing illegal motors to their pushbikes - essentially making them motorcycles. And the police have now caught on.
Because of story’s length, the news section this week is very short!
