yes, exactly my feelings: I'm nervous even trying it out on the patio at about 2 mph! And it's certainly not a bike I'd reckon on using for a 30+ mile ride. But pootling round Putney? That might do it, but I don't think I'd venture out as far as Richmond Park. Having said that, there's a guy (Nigel Moore) on the facebook page who posted a photo of his in Egypt near the pyramids. I hope he won't mind my posting the picture here. It's rather an impressive upgrade, with a derailleur etc...
