I liked the idea.. But, I have a massive pile of pink batts sitting above my bedroom at the moment (from before I bought the house). And they're likely so compressed now, they're unusable (I plan to replace them with cross thatched insulation to reduce sound from outside, as I only have blow in at the moment)
Auzy
I've been hit by a car, and even with a helmet, I had a bump on my head (which is why the ambos who attended managed to convince me eventually to come hospital for 5 hours). My skull would have been cracked open if it wasn't for the helmet. My brother was hit on his motorcycle in a hit and run too.. He's lucky he survived at all. It's awesome even when ducking branches and such
It's not impeding cycle culture at all. Literally takes 2s to put on a helmet.. how is that impeding anything?
Your advice will kill people.. Anyone who has ever fallen off a bike knows this.. Try running on gravel in bare foot if you want to get an idea of just how effective helmets are. Please don't spread bullshit like this. You can even get MIPS helmets which further improve the safety
That being said, Chain and sprocket guards, I have no issue being made mandatory on new bikes (at least so there is a transition period). But, just checking amazon, they actually seem to be cheap anyway. So maybe not a big issue (but, not sure how badly people are struggling these days)
This is something I've been waiting for, for ages, and is the reason I didn't get any previously (because the interest free loan didn't make sense, because of the risk of batteries dropping faster than any savings from the loan)
If it's a good deal, I'll likely buy more Solar panels too and double them from 6.6kw (5kw inverter).
Obviously, wouldn't be buying a tesla powerwall, but ideally something AC coupled still (so really hoping BYD makes something like that)
