Me to young
« on: 28, December, 2012 - 19:32:21 »
I though I'll ask just for next year and the year after, I am fearing that I won't be able to take part in some of the events next year or the year after because I am to young, (12 years old). If I can't let me know :(:(:(

I though I and my dad would gear up my C5, get the accessories and get it all working for 2013, just now it dawned on me that I am too young :( :( >:(

You would need a battery to participate in any of the runs - you wouldn't be able to keep up otherwise. Though I can't see any police pulling a C5 over to check the driver's age. I use mine daily and haven't been pulled over once.

Hi Luke,

kamilb is not asking you if you have a battery, he's pointing out that you would need a battery.

There is no law to stop you, as a 12 year old, taking part in an event if you use the C5 as a bike. As he pointed out with peddle power alone you would not be able to keep up with the rest of the participants, therefore you would need a battery. This of course changes the legal situation.

I have driven past about 5 police cars using the power and none of them have pulled me over nor taken any notice of me :o :o

I keep convincing him to get one but all the work we have done to get my C5 going we need a pod still it has put him off a bit. But I am sure he'll get one one day as I don't have the money  :( :(
