Created by coder Seedy, this Grand Theft Auto IV mod features a Marty McFly skin, five different time periods of Hill Valley, audio and cut scenes based on the BTTF trilogy along with a fully functional DeLorean which does the whole fire trail thing at 88mph.

The General Lee you see parked in the clip is from a Dukes Of Hazzard mod by the same coder.

Australian-made Stealth Electric Bikes – available in a range of styles (with names like ‘Hurricane’ and ‘Street Fighter’) – have a 50 mile (80km) range on a two-hour charge and a maximum speed of 50mph (80kph).

The ‘Bomber’ (above) is on sale in the UK for (ouch) £8,325.

Still.

An easy crime.

But does it pay?

It’s dead simple to steal a bike and the consequences are near zero. You can resell stolen bikes. If you want to get a good price for a stolen bicycle, it requires a decent amount of work. That amount of work is what limits the bike theft trade from really flourishing. Criminal masterminds have an opportunity cost for their time; they can’t be messing around lugging heavy pieces of metal and rubber that are only in limited demand.

So, if your bike ever gets stolen, you can at least take solace in the fact that the illicit bike trade isn’t a very easy way to make a lot of money. That probably won’t make you feel any better though.

I thought with the weekend that was in it these may interest people, when the game last visited Dublin in 1989 [Pittsburgh Versus Rutgers at Lansdowne Road], my old man got us down to the sideline and sitting with the players. How, I have no idea. In the picture where I am being held aloft, that is Alex Van Pelt, current running backs coach for the Green Bay Packers. Cannot wait for this weekend.
