    Current car (I-Pace) doesn’t have roof rails, so bars (Thule) clamp into the door opening with specific locating points. No issues with leaks or damage to the paint, even with four bikes and an awning on top.

    Minor one regarding the like button. It can triggered by the whole “bar” at the left of a post, not just the “ST” icon.

    Many years ago, niece about 4, upon unwrapping a Christmas present…”not another bloody puzzle”.

    Nephew about 5, came into the kitchen complaining older nephew (7ish) had kicked him, voice from the other room “no I didn’t, I was kicking myself and he got in the way!”

    If you had a low down floor tent you could pitch behind your car, a windbreak, or whatever.

    What can you expect in a country run by plutocrats?

    Not trapped wind, but have had small bowel blockages, adhesions from Ileostomy surgery being the cause.  The muscle spasms will go in waves of mild discomfort to doubled up in agony. Sometimes solved with over the counter painkillers, occasionally a trip to A&E for morphine and drips, last one, passed out in triage and got a 2 week stay in hospital – blockage took over 4days to clear.

    Maybe they’re just rejecting using a symbol of European origin.

    Yes, but very aware of what they are – think MG B vs brand new MX5.
    Have “copies” of my first two, ‘91 Fire Mountain – original given away! ‘98 Kilauea – original stolen. Still have my ‘02 Sub5pro.

    Being able to read members only feature, still seems to be coming and going (can’t find an obvious common theme/behaviour).

    Mines still adrift, can post etc, just can’t see Members only articles in features, including the one about my Konas.
    And back now.

    And it’s gone again (thinks I’m not a member).

    We think we have sorted everyone’s membership levels now.

    Filled in the report a post form thing, all seemed to work (post then only showed reply, not reply/report options) but had a message saying report had not worked properly.

    Possible membership issue, I’m all logged in so can like posts etc, but can’t view Feature articles that are members only such as: https://singletrackworld.com/2024/06/spotted-teds-retro-kona-themed-collection/

    Re disliking humans – I use sprigs of crushed bog myrtle to help keep them away.

    Does it also work on midges?

    Is this not evidence supporting Dr Brian Mays early paper on the systems driving planetary motion.

    @molgrips – heated seats if you have them. They warm you, not the air volume of the car. Jumpers also good.

    I’m sure there’s a rational plan, but I really have no idea what it is.

    Could it be as simple as protecting his Evans investment by effectively preventing anyone else from using the Wiggle/CRC brands to compete with the online side of Evans?

    So you don’t have to power up the high voltage systems just to run some of the low voltage stuff. In reality, an EV is never really “off”, there’s always something running on the 12v side of things, even if at very low current demand – alarms, remote locking, contact via the app etc.

    Anyone still regularly riding their old Sub 5 or am I the last??

    Regular, maybe not, but the T130 isn’t getting any more miles either. Need to get back off-road properly rather than fairly flat bimbles.

    Follow up question, which came first bowls or plates?

    Similarly, do flat earthers deny the existence of bowls, and only follow the one true way of the rimless plate?

    The remarks likening him to Jesse off the Fast Show are unkind. 🙂

    They certainly are, dunno what Jesse has done to deserve that comparison.

    I doubt the blown bulb would trigger the engine warning lamp – as not related to emissions equipment on the vehicle.

    Time ATACs on my commuter – can there wear shoes that can be walked in far more sensibly than road cleats.

    Car battery on the rear rack, once up to speed, ok, but that much weight high up made for a very wobbly start. 😮

    Anyone else really like breaking them down again?

    I’ll find out later, Ferrari Daytona SP3 gets dismantled, to be rebuilt as an F40.

    Two stand out for me…

    First  meal I had at the Sportsman near Seasalter, sometime before they’d got there Michelin Star – the Dover Sole was amazing.

    A bacon roll at the takeaway cafe on the A5  near Llyn Idwal, where the YHA is now.  Just done a walk around it and properly sprained my ankle, and had to hobble back to the car.

    Ask the hotel if they have a “bag room” you can put your bag in prior to checking in, then no need to go back to the car.

    Or check-in first, then go and get your bag, only opening the boot, not the drivers door.
