    And they are unregulated/unlicenced.

    What sort of motorcycle are you talking about? The ones I know
    about (e.g. BMW which my son rides) are regulated and need a
    special license.

    The difference between a motorised bicycle, a moped, a scooter and a
    motorcycle are based on weight, engine displacement, power output
    and/or top speed and vary somewhat from one jurisdiction to another
    and so do the minimum age and licence requirements.


    Cheers

    They exist in the United States. Delivery drivers in some cities use them
    for transportation. I don't think they're in common use otherwise.

    My confusion was when a motorized bicycle or moped was called a

    wheeled vehicles.

    Title: Black Bean & Root Vegetable Stew
    Categories: Main dish, Vegetarian, Stew, Casseroles, Mark's
    Yield: 6 servings

    1/2 c Black beans, soaked
    1/2 md Turnip, cut into rounds &
    -- each round halved
    1/4 ts Nutmeg
    1 md Onion, sliced
    2 lg Carrots, quartered
    1 ts Dill weed
    3 lg Potatoes, quartered
    2 tb Parsley
    1 md Parsnip, quartered
    1/2 ts Oregano
    1/2 c Green peas
    1/2 c Mushrooms, halved
    Salt & pepper
    Water or stock to cover

    In the bottom of a large casserole dish, arrange the turnip slices &
    sprinkle with the nutmeg. Layer the rest of the vegetables in order,
    sprinkling in the herbs after each layer. Top with the soaked beans.
    Pour over enough water or stock to cover & season with salt & pepper.
    Cover with a good tight-fitting lid & place in an oven pre-heated to
    300F. Cook for 3 hours. If you desire, add dumplings & cook for a
    further 30 minutes.

    NOTE: I made this recipe to emphaise the taste of the root vegetables.
    Add whatever vegetables & herbs you wish. I used black beans to add
    some protein. If exchanging legumes, be sure to use ones that can
    stand a lot of cooking, kidney beans or chick peas, for example.

    My confusion was when a motorized bicycle or moped was called a motorcycle. Thanks for listing the different types of motorized two wheeled vehicles.

    In my little corner of paradise motorcycle endorsements on the driver's
    licence come in two classes. Class M denotes any motorcycle over 150 CC.
    Class L denotes a motor-driven cycle with less than 150 CC displacement.

    Class L motorcycles are also called "motor driven cycles" and are banned
    from Interstate/limited access highways along with pedestrians and farm equipment .... the reasoning being thay they are unable to "keep up".

    When I lived in SunnySoCal the freeway dividing line was 250 CC.
    Although I often rode a 160 CC Honda Benly on I-5 and/or the Harbor
    Freeway it was quite capable of humming along at Interstate (slow lane
    anyway) speeds. Never got a second glance from the CHPpies.

    Title: California Spot Prawns w/Thai Seasoning
    Categories: Seafood, Oriental, Chilies, Squash
    Yield: 8 Servings

    3 1/2 tb Fresh lime juice
    2 tb Grapeseed or vegetable oil
    2 tb Light brown sugar
    2 Kaffir lime leaves
    +=OR=+
    2 1" strips of lime zest
    1 Stalk lemongrass; bottom 6"
    - only, peeled, minced
    1 tb Minced fresh ginger
    1 ts Asian fish sauce
    16 lg California spot prawns;
    - shelled, deveined
    1/2 md Seedless cucumber; peeled
    - coarsely shredded
    1/2 c Plain whole-milk yogurt
    1 ts Minced shallot
    1/4 ts Ground coriander
    pn Cayenne pepper
    2 sm Garlic cloves; minced
    2 tb Fine chopped mint
    3 tb Very fine chopped cilantro
    1 ts Fine grated lime zest
    Salt & fresh ground pepper
    1 Charentais melon
    +=OR=+
    1/2 Cantaloupe; rind removed,
    - sliced 1/2" thick
    2 Hass avocados
    3 tb Minced red onion
    1/2 ts Minced hot chile

    The California spot prawn is unusually large, meaty and
    sweet, which is why it has become such a chef's favorite.
    LeFevre isn't afraid to prepare these big prawns with a
    vibrant Thai marinade and serve them with an array of
    distinctive accompaniments: minty melon, lime-mashed
    avocado and cool, creamy cucumber-yogurt sauce.

    In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the lime juice
    with the grapeseed oil, brown sugar, lime leaves,
    lemongrass, ginger and fish sauce. Add the shrimp and
    toss, refrigerate for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

    Meanwhile, squeeze the cucumber to remove as much liquid
    as possible. Transfer to a small bowl and add the yogurt,
    shallot, coriander, cayenne, half of the minced garlic, 1
    tb of the mint, 1 tb of the cilantro and 1/2 ts of the
    lime zest.

    Season with salt and pepper and refrigerate for 1 hour.

    In a medium bowl, toss the melon slices with 1/2 tb of
    the lime juice and the remaining 1 tb of mint and 1/2
    ts of lime zest; season with salt and pepper.

    Refrigerate until chilled.

    In another medium bowl, mash the avocados with the onion,
    hile and the remaining garlic, 1 tb of lime juice and 2
    tb of cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.

    Heat a grill. Drain the prawns well. Grill over high
    heat, turning once, until browned, about 4 minutes.
    Transfer the prawns to a platter and serve with the
    yogurt sauce, melon and avocado puree.
