People drive for free on electric bikes so i'm wondering how about petrol?

Is there a engine size limit? UK ONLY thanks

Answer
It's a bit tricky. I'm no expert by any means, but I know that an ordinary assisted electric bike which does away with the need for pedalling and doesn't go very fast is quite legal. However some forms of powered transport are not legal for use on anything other than private land, like segways (shame, cos I'd love one!) , motorized foot scooters, and I know the speed can make a difference. That is actually going to be the biggest hurdle - whether something is legal to use on the road or not. Maybe checking out the DVLA website might help.

Who was contributed the most to the world? The UK or Denmark?

Kopper

Things that Denmark has contributed with:
- Carlsberg, the best beer in the entire world, the number one beer drinked by everybody even in the UK
- Lego, best entertainment in the world
- Best food in the world, lots of Danish restaurants even in the UK

Things that the UK has contributed with:
- Fat old men for thai women

I think Denmark wins, hands down.
Denmark is also more of a world power. Look at how much the elite soldiers of the kingdom of Denmark are contributing in Afghanistan while the British soldier do nothing. America knows that Denmark and Danish soldiers are amongst the best soldiers in the entire world.
