Australian regulatory agencies together with the Australian Bicycle Council have been working to review legislation affecting power-assisted bicycles.
In Australia, the motor vehicle regulatory framework has the effect of prohibiting motorized cycles except bicycles with power-assist to 200 watts, conventional motorcycles and mopeds.
We'll have an on-line forum chat about it on-line Thursday 15-Jan-09 from 9:00 pm Eastern Australia Time and see what comes out of it. Visit social group "Australian legal/regulation/ADR interest group"
If you are interested in participating, take a look at the HybriPed website
Cheers, Greg
