Re: The new improved fitness thread
Feckin hell... how long did it take for the dizziness to wear of [emoji1787] According to Strava algorithms I am not the fittest I've been over a 2 year window. I really wish I could compare to 2019/2020 when I was at my fittest. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231009/1e26f4afad763f8899aff45f94dc33f9.jpg ...

Re: World Politics Stuff (not brexit)
Yeah, let's use the Zionist excuses to flatten the area. You can call them excuses, Israel would call them reasons. You could take just about any country on the globe, launch a huge phalanx of rockets at it, and expect a significant military response from it. Hamas knows this...they ...

Re: Stonesie's GS Mods, Farkles and Tinkering
They're all out to take the piss. I remember when I crashed a car with £15k. The insurance asked for proof of ownership so I sent them a receipt for a slender payment when I paid off the finance agreement. They took that value and ...

... again as the bike is irreplaceable, they're out of production and it was less than a month old so they will have to do better! Apparently it will take 7-10 days to get an updated offer and then they will pay my finance company by cheque unless I personally provide them with the full payment details ...

Re: What are you doing today ??
My stitches came out today and I'm back to work later, so I've mostly been doing bits around the house to see if my back can take some bending and twisting and I can vouch for bruised kidneys hurting a bit... The whole thing is a learning experience.

I was asked to come in to the office today.
It's technically autumn so the heating is on full blast. It's like a sauna.
My boss has come in with a chest infection and cold symptoms. It's ok though, he doubts it's covid, he's not done a test. He'll take tomorrow off as a sick day.

Re: Stonesie's GS Mods, Farkles and Tinkering
Well, that didn't take long. Brief ride today and the SOS system has thrown a hissy fit and flagged a malfunction message asking to see a specialist workshop.
Google says that it's most likely that it had a poor signal and will sort itself out. Might give it another go tomorrow.

Another 110 miles of running in, up to 575 now so if I take it the long way for its service on Friday I'll be very close to the ideal 600... She's a big girl this GS, and has 3 daytime running lights so it's pretty hard to miss, on this ride 3 driver's ...

Re: The electric car revolution
Its storage of hydrogen that is the problem. To get sufficient into a fuel tank it needs to be a minimum of 5000psi and kept cold.
It will take massive steps forward in technology for it to be viable for bikes i would have thought.
