Gocycle - Interview with inventor Richard Thorpe

Gocycle inventor Richard Thorpe used to be an engineer for Formula One racers McLarens, but he took some time off a while ago to make an electric bicycle. Launched in 2009, we take a look at its buttons and spinny bits as National Cycling Week urges us all to get in the saddle. Richard chats us through the features and give the hard sell on why you should shell out on the £1500 bike. (Also available for £45 a month.)
