    I agree with Submarined.

    I own a couple of pairs of Briskers, they are great for commuting or Park stuff, but when its proper cold they don’t cut it.

    I use snowboarding gloves for commuting when its proper cold.

    Borrow a wheel chair.

    I broke my ankle and borrowed a wheel chair to get about on, made my life so much easier.

    a mate of mine used broken up pallets to do the inside of his Mancave/shed once he had insulated it, looks interesting and a lot cheaper than T’n’G

    Had gatorskins on my commuter for 2 years, zero punctures.

    They aren’t as nice a ride as other tyres but we are talking marginal gains on a tyre running near 100psi

    I’m a Sender subscriber and so far the content is great.

    I recently stopped subscribing to MBUK as it’s out of date junk.

    At the market in Chelmsford they sell NOS old magazines so it seems not all end up in a skip.

    I recently purchased an Exposure Joystick, it is perfect for night rides.

    Compact, lasts ages and is super low profile using the supplied clamp through helmet mount.

    They were on offer at Cycle Republic via Halfords for £120 using BC discount it was £100 on the nose, bargain!

    I have been through my fair share of ebay specials, this is miles ahead.

    I still use an ebay/amazon special on the bars.

    That is a great way to look at it!

    Mine is a D 78% efficiency so not worth doing for 8-12% efficiency gain.

    I gave up about 10 years ago, then slipped in to a low level habit again, just evenings and social smoking. I then stopped about 7 years ago due to the wife and since then I haven’t smoked, except for when drinking, if i’m doing any sustained drinking I tell myself I won’t but 5 mins later i’m there on it.

    I wish I had the will power to stop that.

    Incidentally I only smoke when drinking if the Mrs isn’t there.

    I disagree.

    The pace of it is slow, due to the judging and the camera angles but the action is top drawer.

    Maybe you need a bigger tv ?

    Out of interest why the roadrunner over the lightning?

    Is it due to the fabric?

    Check out the Kansi range, they are more comfortable than the Bromptons due to the 20″ wheels.

    most cree lights can be adapted to a go pro style mount.

    I unscrewed the mount from the base of my light and fitted an adaptor tab I got from ali express, prior to this I used a normal 90° go pro arm and packed it with washers to fix it.

    As above I used the top fixings for all of my curtains, they are all still there.

    Give it a whirl.

    I have a Cross click, mine is fully murdered out unlike this one but that’s the closest I could find.

    Cross Click Ballpoint Pen – Classic Black

    I have changed the cartridge to a slim gel rolling ball refill much nicer than the straight ball point.

    I made a variation on an andy/scorpion stand from a guitar stand, it works great on hollow axle cranks, not so much on my Hope cranks.

    This stuff is what I use on my Tech M4’s, all of the pistons were sticky, I popped them out as far as I dare then cleaned them with Isopropyl alcohol and then lubed with the Hunters silicon, works well.

    i’ll second that,

    I have smashed two iphones into trees in an otterbox, while they still crack the screens and destroy the otterboxes they do still function which is good.

    They also leave iphone imprints on your leg which nicely bruise up a couple of days later.

    Very short sighted survey.

    What is most important?
    All of those items.

    folded size very key for trains etc,
    Unfolded size, needs to be rideable
    Weight very important for commuting
    time to fold and unfold very important, I could unfold my Kansi in the time it took to walk the length of one train carriage, while walking!

    One feature, which seems only to work properly on Bromptons, is that the folded bike should stay folded without the use of a strap.

    A clean place to hold the bike is useful.

    Get a 4 silver, it has the best value combination.

    It can be used for all sorts I have used it for Flyboarding, Snowboarding, mountain biking, larking about in the pool, swimming under waterfalls, walking around temples and so on.

    It is very versatile and has a screen on the back.

    The session has an internal battery, this is quite limiting unless it is the secondary camera.

    Buy a decent branded memory card and you won’t have issues.

    Accessories wise
    Chest mount
    Go-pole
    floating bobber handle thing
    Helmet side mount
    Helmet Ninja mount
    mini gorilla pod style tripod
    spare batteries and charger
    spare memory card, I changed mine out halfway through my recent trip to Bali just to make sure worst case I lost half not all the footage.

    hope that helps.

    I use a Cross Click with a gel internal.

    Perfect weight and doesn’t take up any room.

    They seem to have forgotten about fun.

    Every spring, the boyz get together for a pre season workout…..

    I had this converted from VHS to digital and It’s still as good as it ever was.
