  Thanks, that's what I should do, maybe first rent some etc. or keep an eye on 2nd hands.

  Is there an e-CB in the market with a long base (to carry one to 1 ½ person) and low CG around £3k? Everything I fancy seems to be high £4k?

  Survey came back with 6 urgent and 11 mild issues, urgent ones mainly around services (electricals being weird/outdated, boiler EOL and flue vicinity issue, various water heating concerns) and high-medium flood risk (being in Somerset). Mild issues include roof insulation (laid over electrical cabling), joinery and possibility of asbestos (1997 build by Bryant Homes...)

  Not sure what to make of the report, I'm sure there are worse reports out there which turned out fine, but I don't want to wholly ignore also.

  to be clear: Uploading an older ride would mean to connect it to a computer, go in and grab a ".fit" file from the Activities folder in there somewhere. Then use the "Upload activity" option in Strava.

  Second pair of P-Zero Race TLR (not SL) gone after the 2000km mark. Two plugs in the back (which is already squarish) so far, even the front had some leakage after yesterdays ride. Swapped to GP5000 S TR's, we'll see how they are.

  Sync modules actually come with the box (at least it did with my 4-pack outdoor one, I too wasn't expecting that)

  They seem to miss some of the action as sometimes don't get activated very quickly and there's a retrigger delay after max 1 minute of recording. Which is a bummer.

  I'm attaching the screenshot from the management interface.

  My experience of this stuff is it looks serious but they didn't really seem to care very much. We had random bits of money coming from all over the place with little paper trail and nothing was flagged.

  Apparently same here, I gave them a bunch of statements, some crypto, some not even from UK banks, not even covering the full deposit + stamp duty amount (short by about 7%) rubberstamp-approved without any questions.
