    Not too sure about the idea of suction pads. I’m sure they are good but doesn’t seem quite right.

    I am looking at the older 3 door model. Pref 2013. The new ones can’t take a roof rack unless they have the rails fitted at the factory.

    The centre exhaust is a limiting factor for a tow bar rack but it seems there are systems around but US based.

    How did you manage to get two bike in godihatehills? No front passenger?

    Contact GoPro with the serial via there web page. There were a few issues with those cameras that resulted in the being bricked. I had one replaced. Its a software rather than hardware issue.

    Best mount i’ve found for the front angle is actually the chest mount. It also tends to get smoother images. When I did use a bar mount I used a no-name 3d printed one from eBay. It worked well and I still use it occasionally.

    Run up to the family home (my side) only 40 mins north and then Lakes for boxing day. No riding going on.

    Outside of lunch etc I’ll pass some time online updating my site – http://www.unsponsored.co.uk it tends to get a huge number of hits Christmas day as I suppose many paddlers want a little bit of escapism from the 25th’s routine.

    I ride out of Reeth pretty much every Sunday so know the trails well. My tyre choice is currently 2.4 Continental Der Baron with full apex protection. Mate uses High Rollers with the full protection version on the back.

    We both run the same tyres year round.

    No issues to date. I moved from Trial Kings (2.3) to Der Baron after a split in the Trail Kings gave me my first puncture for about 6 years (running tubeless) this was a manufacturing flaw rather than a normal puncture. Despite being larger they roll really well and I’ve been pleased with the choice.

    I have a defender guard on the front of bike after years of using mucky nuts. It isn’t the prettiest of things but for function its superb. I stay dry even on the wettest of rides. It can also be removed from the bike really quickly with no special tools, no need for zip ties either.

    Trail Kings. 5-6mm slit at bead. Looks just like the image about.

    Used rubber queens for years without issue. Now on Der Barons.

    Been running tubeless for years. Stans Flow with Continental tyres.

    Only had one issue when the bead separated from the tyre wall. Only 5mm or so but no way the fluid would seal it.

    I always carry spare tubes and patches for the tubes.

    A mini floor pump and levers come along too.

    I have done the same in the past and have replaced just in case. I didn’t want to set everything up including fluid to then have to pull everything apart. I have stopped using Stans tape and have gone for Gorilla Tape – http://amzn.to/2aHcdJw working really well and less than £3 a roll. It was recommend by a wheel builder I know.

    There is a notch on the inside so you can get a punch/screwdriver in to start knocking them out.

    We use a Brodit one with our mini 2 but it fits to the headrest on one seat.

    Little one loves it. Saves a load of headaches when travelling hours to see family.

    However the holder may be used to rig something up. Saved £100’s compared to the BMW prices.

    Holder – http://amzn.to/29YfGC7

    The headrest clamp is available separately and comes in different sizes to accommodate different headrests. It clamps on using allen bolts and has been rock solid. i’ve used some insulating tape around the chrome headrest posts just to offer some protection and friction so I don’t need to crank the clamp up super tight.

    http://amzn.to/29YfMK2

    Once fitted I have never removed it. But have had to tighten the holder to the bracket bolt once or twice. But no way was it an issue.

    If you are making edits for your self and mates and uploading to vimeo or youtube the fact that the session is “only” 1080p won’t make much difference. GoPro edits from the company look wow but i suspect a lot is done post production.

    I have a GP Hero 4 black and a session. The Hero4 black hasn’t been out much since the session landed.

    Cancelled mine a month ago. Used the online chat.

    Moved to Now Tv for 6.99 a month. Given the channels we watch we haven’t really missed anything.

    8 subjects used to calculate progress 8/attainment 8

    Each grade is given a point score. This is added together and divided by 10 (see below) to give an Attainment 8 score, an average grade if you like. Colleges and Unis will be looking at this closely in the future.

    Progress 8 compares the Attainment 8 score against where the student should be given their starting point at the beginning of Y7 (Y6 SATS).

    Moving forward I’d go for getting –

    Slots 1 and 2

    English Lan and Lit (doing both ensure that highest grade double counts)
    Maths (double counts)

    Slots 3, 4 and 5

    Three subjects in total from

    Hist, Geog, Sciences inc Computer sciences.

    Slots 6, 7 and 8

    Plus three other subjects and the lower of the two English grades. This is where the Arts, sports and everything else sits.

    A total of 8 subjects with 10 grades being counted (best English grade double counted if lan and lit sat and maths double counted regardless)

    All the courses have been toughened up and will be harder still moving forward.

    Hero 2 is quite an old camera now. A good few years old in fact. I’d personally stay away from one, I had one, they were great. It’s not worth £90.

    BUT You can pick up a Hero for that –

    Or the Session 4 for £60 more.

    Just spoke to my brother, he’s only uses work email for work related matters and never uses hotmail or similar on the firms network or even on mobile devices he has been issued with.

    nealglover thanks for the link, I’ve sent it to him (not to his work email!!!)
