    OP
    Shocking driving and behaviour afterwards. Well impressed you kept at it and kept your cool.
    Please disseminate the video as widely as possibly ( once you’ve edited out the 4 minutes of just riding along)

    I use Apple Fitness+

    It does a huge range of things including yoga and core strength. I started doing it in Jan this year and have seen a huge change in my posture and how I stand – I also have a old lower back injury.

    They do on demand classes via the app that start at 5 mins up to 45 mins with an easier option in every session.

    Are you not paying for it each month via a subscription?

    Nope. I don’t use much paper/ink each month so rarely go over the monthly limit.

    Also this

    Also the cartridges they send are much bigger and last loads longer so only need changing rarely.

    Yes and from “web devs” from random web domains that aren’t the same name as their supposedly company name.

    I’m assuming they are attempts to see what email addresses are active and then sent more dangerous spam emails with links/docs attached?

    Another for instant ink. Can’t remember the last time I actually paid for ink – it just arrives when needed and they recycle the old ones

    I’ve got the 12 mini and love it too. I waited for it to come out before upgrading from an 8 and the size is perfect.

    Battery lasts pretty much all day even under heavy usage

    Long winded but managed to do it by uploading the original file to Google maps as a new layer, then downloading as gpx and back into OSM

    Thanks for the suggestions tho

    Thanks @scotroutes

    That looks promising but even when I delete the route part from the list in “my collection” and then export, it still imports as a track to OSM rather than just a simple list of fav POIs

    Another vote for HelloFresh – I get 3 meals a week which feed 2 people each meal. Cook them together and have the second one for lunch the next day or freeze for another week. Loads of options and can pause/change each week as I need.

    I’ve got a free box code if you want to try it – PM me if you do

    Watch the replay, Sagan is bouncing riders all over the place from a km out, clearly bumps Lotto rider at 850m, nearly takes a Ineos rider out, then barges a DSM rider, he nudges Ewan at the corner who then does what everyone does and over compensates and clips the rear wheel of the Alpecin rider.

    Nonsense. Ewan was totally to blame for that – just rider error.

    So sorry to hear this. I’ve no words in times like this but my thoughts are with you.

    Tried to book mine in Bristol today at 7am as soon as it opened but only two centers taking bookings and end of next week onwards.

    Thought there were 19 places in Bristol doing them – is this because they aren’t offering us the AstraZenica maybe? Or just everywhere else fully booked already?

    Thanks all!


    @footflaps
    , that would work perfectly. I’ll give them a call

    @thegeneralist

    I thought Uist was grim.

    In what way? The beaches look stunning. Not bothered about facilities or anything like that

    I’d do a loop from Uig. Ferry to Lochmaddy. Drive South. Camp. Drive North. camp. Ferry to Leverburgh. Camp. Drive to Tarbert and return to Uig.

    That sounds pretty good to me!

    We’ve booked the Mallaig – Lochboisdale ferry across which is lovely and scenic but is often cancelled.

    That route was the one we were looking at the most – mainly as it looks stunning. The plan is late May – how easily do they cancel the crossing?


    @poly
    and @tuboflard – looked at both of those as well but keep getting taken back by the other islands.


    @trail_rat
    – I know. We’ve just got very little time but want to make the most of it

    This thread does my head in

    It’s doing your head in as all you’ve done in this entire thread is victim blame and be one of the entitled dog users. Why can’t you accept that some people don’t like dogs and/or are scared of them and that dogs and dog owners are at fault?

    That was tough! Thanks @bails and @oopnorth for the through and off!

    Huge thanks to @robbo1234biking for doing all this. It’s definitely got my fitness up massively and kept me sane during this last lockdown.

    Bouhanni has plenty of form for violence and aggressive behaviour on and off the bike – not entirely sure why he’s still in the peloton

    @reluctantjumper cheers, I like the second fan idea next to a window. I’ll try that too.


    @funkybaj
    , yep works well! Used to drive me nuts having to restart it each time. Now if they can only fix the Apple Watch connection…

    @oopnorth good shout, that floor fan looks good. I’m not wearing a headband haha


    @franksinatra
    bit of both. Sweating to the point that my arms look like liquid but yes overheating too.

    vanilla83

    @oopnorth yes mainly the STW races but also any ride with a big climb in it. I don’t use a jersey at all – just bibs and wicking “string” vest.


    @reluctantjumper
    I’m limited by where I live but have the window open right next to me plus fan in my face. Maybe I’ll try opening a window on the other side of the flat to get some through flow as well.

    Might just have to accept that I sweat a huge amount!! ha

    Slightly off topic but Zwift related.

    I’m overheating a lot (despite having a decent fan) so considering some new bibs to help with wicking etc.

    Short list is:
    – dhb Aeron Bib Shorts
    – Madison Turbo Men’s Bib Shorts
    – Alpkit Rhythm Elite Bib Short

    Any real life reviews on those? Anything else I should consider?

    Enjoyed/hated that in equal amounts!

    Every time we get to a hill, I just go backwards.

    Thanks as always for organising!
