A few years ago I went to see the Tall Ships in Newport. There was a gent there at dockside pitching the latest electric motorcycle...forget the name.
I was allowed to give it a short test drive. I was advised to be aware of the acceleration. At about half throttle, it was amazing. I slowed, turned back and slowly made my way back to the sales guy.
I dismounted, handed him the handle bars and promptly shat me knickers. It was fast.
Tall Ships came to Charleston SC a few years ago.
Well worth seeing.
