Phone wise the best thing I did was jump from idevices to android. The iPad is still the best tablet out there IMHO, but is still muchos ‘spensive. The Sony ones are catching up very quickly though.
I haven’t really played with macs, but Apple’s OS doesn’t make me go ooooohhhhh, Windows 10 did though.
The original send up video of the gent (not sure if he was Asian or Middle Eastern) saying Peppa the Pig is evil etc is comedy gold IMHO. Especially as it really antagonised the nutters into some hilarious Youtube xenophobic rants.
I just wish they could do something “different” the one in 2004 was bloody awful (I’ve not heard the new one yet). Shirley someone could pen a more up to date song? Hashing some slightly different lyrics into the old one to is a bit meh.
I have this year as work and uni work is zapping me 🙁 I really want to go and ride more, but I am exhausted. Fingers crossed when Jan comes and I’m only doing one module, I will have a bit more va,va,voooom.
Check the geo out on the Boardman site and see how it compares to your current bike or one similar. I ride a small (just under 5’8″) and it fits “me” just fine. The medium didn’t feel right when I tried it (TT was too long).
They are ace bikes by the way, I love mine.
Grab whatever I fancy wearing. However last ride out on the MTB I wore baggies and hated it (kept catching on my saddle). May have to stick to purely Lycra.
My PC hasn’t been switched on since getting a Chromebook a few months ago.
It’s excellent, I use Google docs for uni work and stream to my Chromecast, Bluetooth Harman/kardon speakers and it’s ace for integration with my android phone.
My mate got hit from the side by a car (he somersaulted clipped in and landed on the car bonnet) he had physical injuries and a written off bike. It took over a year for his claim!!! So prepare to strap in.
I watched 22 jump Street last night and loved how it just didn’t take itself seriously. They are both worth a watch as they are so daft. TMNT is a good action romp.
You’d think so, but the in-law’s neighbours had their 5 or 6 year old Astra convertible nicked in the same way as the OP’s mate. It wasn’t anything special at all.
On the shared Sustrans route I commute on, it’s usually Dog walkers with their 80ft dog leads taking up all of the path. I usually get daggers or chunnering from them? Makes me chuckle, as you get moaned at if you are on the roads paid for by “road tax” or if you use the designated paths. People are idiots!!!
I tend not to bother with the news as it is mostly fear mongering. We appear to becoming like America, where everyone is out to get you!! Russell Howard’s Good Newa is my main news source 🙂
I’m similar height and ride a 16″ I have upgraded the wheels as I already had them (std wheels are fine though) and it’s bloody ace!!!
I’ve 24 hour raced it, xc raced it and trail centred it and it rides a treat!!! Haggle them down on price I got mine for less than £700. It’s replaced a Salsa El Mariachi.
