Sue Doughty MP, Endorses Pedal Power Thanks to Electric Bikes Direct.

Sue Doughty Liberal Deocrats MP for Guildford, Surrey, UK. Is now in possesion of a lightweight folding electric bike supplied by her local expert retailler, Electric Bikes Direct.

(PRWEB) October 14, 2004 -- On Thursday 30th September Sue Doughty will be visiting Electric Bikes Direct in Burpham to collect her loan bike and discover for herself the benefits of pedal power.

Sue said 'with fuel fast approaching 1.00 per litre we need to utilise more efficient modes of transport and the electric bike really fits the bill for short range travel helping to reduce congestion in our towns and cities.

Around town the electric bike can travel at 15mph which is generally faster than any car and a 5p fee for charging will take you up to 20 miles which is cheaper than shoe leather.

Additionally employers who buy electric bikes for their staff can gain on tax savings as an electric bicycle is tax deductible and National Insurance and VAT reclaimable.

I am delighted to endorse any innovative solution to help reduce congestion and reduce emissions in our towns."
