Haha this makes me feel better.

Haha yes i came across the KKK twice yesterday, second time he immediately asked me to give him a break and leave him alone lol.

I have to say i do love this game and i was very doubtful i would.
I get about 90 minutes a night on it and having run out of missions to do, found myself levelling up the challenges.
I did make the mistake of thinking i had to run over rabbits on my horse rather than shoot them from horseback, this was frustrating.

However, if I find as I did in one fairly new indie bike shop in Bristol, the owner has basically bought their entire stock from Wiggle and doubled the price, they can do one.

Haha, i had an experience like this in central london recently, Continental GP4000ii's listed as £70 each 'Sorry mate, the way the market is going i simply cant afford to get these in any cheaper'
I'm very much keen on supporting independent bike shops but i felt like that scenario was engineered for someone who didn't know any better rather than the resourcing issue delivered.

For example: How do you steady your horse when it's startled by something nearby? The game told me once but I've forgotten and feel like it would take me an era to find a controls screen that tells me.

Looks great!
Agree with the 1x11 sentiment, I was blown away by the same thing when fitting XT.

Gnarly

I just pre-ordered RDR2 on a punt that it downloads and installs in the next two hours. Not actually got the energy in me to play for long so this download bar is probably the most fun I'll have with the game tonight.

Strange one to report, and could be tempting fate a bit much but thought it would be interesting to some, especially those who are looking to buy but concerned about theft.

I keep my Bullitt in the bike store at the back of the underground carpark of my building. You need a building fob to enter, but that hasn't stopped people from breaking the door to get in and steal bikes throughout the summer.
First they stole all of the Bromptons and a cervelo s3.
They then stole all the alloy race bikes and in the process completely destroyed someones brand new Specialised Allez trying to break a cheap lock by twisting the frame.

Not once have they even batted an eye at my Bullitt or tried to remove parts from it.
They are capable of cutting a New York D-Lock as there are many left over as evidence from other thefts, but my bike now sits in a room of rusty old abandoned bikes that aren't of any interest to them.

I took out insurance with Hiscox immediately after the first theft. Sadly I cant get the thing back upstairs into my flat without dismantling it and i do like to use it every few days, but generally i think its safe from theft, (they wouldn't know what to do with it or how to ride it out i presume.)

The main thing is that the screen is now larger and has rounded corners. the impression this gives is a significantly larger screen due to how some apps are using the space. I really like how much you can get on this analogue infograph screen in the image below.

Your next meeting is listed between 9 -3 .
The 4 buttons inside the clock can be active to show progress/ live info and the 4 around the outside are active buttons with slightly more information available. My favourite is the coloured scale for low - high temperature, the dark sky app uses this well.

All of the above is great and might work on the older watches, but in the new size i find the buttons are far more accurate and responsive.

Got my series 4 watch on friday to replace my original.
The Sport Loop strap is incredibly comfortable compared to the Leather Loop and Sport straps i had previously. I hardly notice i'm wearing the new watch as a result.

The larger screen, and significant performance improvements are really something, the new complications are really something, i feel like I've got a completely new level of information available to me at a glance.
Highly recommend it to anyone who is on the fence regarding an upgrade.

One can only hope.
I do like that the plan is also pinned to a financial incentive to cycle to work.
Denmark has a tax break for cyclists and i imagine its the kind of thing required here in the UK to re-frame the entire Road Tax bs.

France considers bike register as part of drive to increase cycling

French cyclists would have to register their bikes on a national
database under a proposed law aimed at increasing cycle use and
reducing thefts.

Bike owners would be given a “certificate of ownership” similar to car
documents to be either presented to the police if the bicycle is
stolen or transferred with the bike when it is sold.

Each cycle frame would be marked “in a readable, indelible, permanent
and unforgeable way in a clearly visible place”, the draft text says.
The registration number will be in a form that can be verified by an
optical reader.

The proposal is part of a 25-point, €350m (£308m) “Plan Vélo” to be
unveiled by the government before the end of the year. It is expected
to come into effect in 2020 and is aimed at tripling the number of
short journeys made by bicycle by 2024.

This made my day, well done.

lol ok yeah i cant remember this happening, maybe i loved the map screen too much, i can see why people would not be impressed.

interesting, i bought a wall mount for my ps4 pro and did not experience jet engine levels at any time.
I would put this down to the wall mount allowing for better airflow ?

I see one doing an after school club run quite regularly, tend to pass by on my own cargo and enjoy waves back and forth. Love the movement and the increase in cargo bikes around central london. Makes me want to show everyone from back home up north that there ARE genuine other ways.

Hi Raphael,
I have tried a couple of sets of these, sadly the core of these screws are remarkably hard and they cant find a purchase. I believe a Vice and Table Drill would allow for a high quality drill piece to break down the screws, the m3 tap would probably only be necessary in order to straighten out any damaged threads.

agreed,
For what its worth, I got a ps4 pro this time around (had a year off) I don't have the 4k tv to go with it yet but it definitely provides the frame rates I know the normal one couldn't.

is it on pc tho?

Is there anybody out there in possession of a nice heavy table drill and an m3 tap who can help me?

The brake calipers on my BMC have headless m3 bolts for adjusting spring tension and they have become stuck inside of the caliper. I've already attempted to drill them out with my wimpy cordless but not been very successful.
It appears it would cost me £150+ to replace the calipers from manufacturer and that seems more than wasteful so if anyone here has the equipment and can envision their time and materials costing less it would be greatly appreciated.

wow! skipping over the rear end, I wonder what the deal is with the fork.

Ooh I switched to dark and found it to be unlikable too but failed to switch it back, after revisiting a couple of times I completely love it.

niceeee

Yeah i think they have begun to under promise and over deliver as part of practice.
Friend of mine went to Regents St store tuesday to buy an iPhone 8.
He was told to sit and a colleague would be with him within 15 minutes. His name was called out by said colleague within 2 min.
When he put the order in, they said someone will bring it down within 15 minutes and it came within 3.
He said he got pissed off each time they said 15 minutes but then came away extremely happy within 10 minutes of entering store.
I've not had quite the same rapid response but i've never had to wait as long as they tell me to.

I don't have 4k (yet) and so cant make use of the upsampling/HDR but from what I understand the frame rates are much better, certainly cant imagine god of war having played so smoothly on the original
