ABSTRACT with Improving Batteries and Economies of Scale Driving Lower Prices, Electric Bicycles (E-Bikes) Are Becoming More Popular Worldwide
E-bikes: legislation, policy and design considerations of an empowering technology Authors: John Lieswyn BSc, MET Senior Transportation Planner, ViaStrada Ltd [email protected] Axel Wilke BE (Hons), ME (Civil) Director, Senior Traffic Engineer and Transport Planner, ViaStrada Ltd (03) 343 8221 [email protected] 2Walk and Cycle Conference, Auckland, New Zealand, 6-8 July, 2016 ABSTRACT With improving batteries and economies of scale driving lower prices, electric bicycles (e-bikes) are becoming more popular worldwide. Specialty retailers are opening across New Zealand to cater for demand. However, in contrast to most countries, New Zealand legislation regulates motor power and is silent on motor assistance cut-out speed. More powerful batteries and controllers supplying high amperage can enable any otherwise legal motor to propel an e-bike to speeds well in excess of 40 km/h. Legislators must respond quickly to keep pace with technological and marketplace changes, minimise harm to road and path users, and support the positive benefits of e-bikes. To help inform any legislative change, this paper clarifies e-bike definitions, discusses the range of technologies including motor types and electric cargo bicycles, and describes regulatory criteria commonly used overseas. Finally, e-bikes increase the variance in operating speeds and the prevalence of larger bicycles that can carry people, pets, and cargo. This paper suggests aspects of cycleway design that should be updated to better accommodate e-bikes. INTRODUCTION Structure of this paper This paper presents a classification of e-bikes and reviews current legislative approaches from selected international jurisdictions in contrast with current New Zealand law. -

Considerations on the Assessment and Use of Cycling Performance Metrics and Their Integration in the Athlete's Biological Passport

Abbiss Centre for Exercise and Sports Science Research, School of Medical and Health Sciences, Edith Cowan University, Joondalup, WA, Australia Over the past few decades the possibility to capture real-time data from road cyclists has drastically improved. Given the increasing pressure for improved transparency and openness, there has been an increase in publication of cyclists’ physiological and performance data. Recently, it has been suggested that the use of such performance biometrics may be used to strengthen the sensitivity and applicability of the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) and aid in the fight against doping. This is an interesting concept which has merit, although there are several important factors Edited by: that need to be considered. These factors include accuracy of the data collected Raphael Faiss, and validity (and reliability) of the subsequent performance modeling. -

Thomas W. Symons, Corps of Engineers, assisted by Alfred Downing and C.C. Manning Topographical Assistants U.S. Army Drawn by Alfred Downing . 1885 (F.D. Baldwin Copy) Stock#: 45449mv Map Maker: U.S. War Department Date: 1885 Place: Washington, D.C. Color: Hand Colored Condition: VG Size: 40 x 30 inches Price: SOLD Description: Indian Fighter Captain Frank Baldwin's Copy of A Remarkable Northwest Rarity The single most advanced and detailed map of the Northwest, published by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1885. The present map is the most detailed and complete map of the region published to date. It was printed specifically for use in the field by military officers and not available for sale or civilian use. Carl Wheat recognized this map as the single most noteworthy Military map of the 1880s, closing out his discussion of the Warren / Freyhold maps with a 2 paragraph discussion of the map. The present example was used by Captain F. D. Baldwin, 5th Infantry, whose name appears on the verso. The map was almost certainly issued to Baldwin in the short window of time between its issuance (about June 1, 1885) and Baldwin's relocation to Montana, in November 1885. A decorated officer whose career spanned nearly 50 years, Baldwin is perhaps best known for his involvement in the pursuit of Sitting Bull and his involvement in helping to relocate the Nez Perce Indians back from Indian Territory to Washington state, after previously participating in 1887 in the Nez Perce's forced relocation to Indian Territory. -
THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index
THE WALTER STANLEY CAMPBELL COLLECTION Inventory and Index Revised and edited by Kristina L. Southwell Associates of the Western History Collections Norman, Oklahoma 2001 Boxes 104 through 121 of this collection are available online at the University of Oklahoma Libraries website. THE COVER Michelle Corona-Allen of the University of Oklahoma Communication Services designed the cover of this book. The three photographs feature images closely associated with Walter Stanley Campbell and his research on Native American history and culture. From left to right, the first photograph shows a ledger drawing by Sioux chief White Bull that depicts him capturing two horses from a camp in 1876. The second image is of Walter Stanley Campbell talking with White Bull in the early 1930s. Campbell’s oral interviews of prominent Indians during 1928-1932 formed the basis of some of his most respected books on Indian history. The third photograph is of another White Bull ledger drawing in which he is shown taking horses from General Terry’s advancing column at the Little Big Horn River, Montana, 1876. Of this act, White Bull stated, “This made my name known, taken from those coming below, soldiers and Crows were camped there.” Available from University of Oklahoma Western History Collections 630 Parrington Oval, Room 452 Norman, Oklahoma 73019 No state-appropriated funds were used to publish this guide.

A Reconsideration of the Career of Prince Alexandre De Merode, Chair
Saint or Sinner?: A Reconsideration of the Career of Prince Alexandre de Merode, Chair of the International Olympic Committee’s Medical Commission, 1967-2002 Authors: Paul Dimeo, University of Stirling; Thomas M. Hunt, University of Texas; Matthew Bowers, University of Texas Contact: Paul Dimeo [email protected] Abstract This article explores the role of Prince Alexandre de Merode in heading the IOC‘s fight against drugs from the 1960s to 2002. History has not served de Merode very well. He has been presented in simplistic ways that emerge from context rather than evidence – as either a saint or a sinner. IOC-sanctioned accounts cast him in the mould of the saint: a moral and intelligent man who saved sports from doping. In contrast, sports academics have tended to portray him as a sinner: an ineffectual leader who did not develop either the testing systems or the punishments required to prevent doping and who deliberately concealed evidence of high-profile doping cases. This article assesses both representations before presenting information to support a richer and more complicated interpretation. Introduction Drawing from a range of primary sources, including the IOC Archives in Lausanne, Switzerland, this article concerns the role of human agency in the development of doping policies by the International Olympic Committee. The focus throughout will be Prince Alexandre de Merode and his contributions to the anti-doping policies, organization, and image management strategies of the IOC Medical Commission, which he chaired from the 1 late-1960s to 2002. Building on prior research concerning the evolution of doping and anti- doping beliefs in society,1 this study fills several gaps in the existing historiography on performance-enhancement in international sport through a biographical analysis of de Merode. -

Writer and Cyclist Mark Johnson's Formula for Getting Drugs out Of
allen heroes lie strewn across the annals of sporting history, their drug-fueled achievements spiked from the record books. Cyclist Lance Armstrong stripped of seven Tour de France titles, baseball slugger Barry Bonds locked out of the Hall of Fame, sprinter Ben Johnson struck from the Olympic record books. Yet, while star athletes are quickly cast from our affections, FAmericans wolf down all manner of supplements in their quest for greater performance in the office, classroom, gym, or bedroom. Some 45 million men have taken the erectile-dysfunction drug Cialis; America reportedly produces 70 percent of the world’s legal amphetamines. “With sport, we have created rules that say it’s illegal to dope, but in society, there’s no law that says it’s illegal to dope to get a better Riding grade in college,” says writer and photographer Mark Johnson (GRS’89,’95).
