Dark Sky was integrated into the iPhone native weather app, still uses met office for the UK forecast.

Having to put people on ignore

Wrong way round? There was a story going round a few years ago that manufacturers only added direction arrows to stop people calling them up to ask which way round they go. Unless there’s clearly a directional tread pattern it won’t make a difference.

Compost bin

That sucks Mikey, get the bike you would want to ride daily and spend big money at pragmasis or elsewhere on a 19mm chain, ground anchor and maybe look at the new grinder proof ulocks just hitting the market.

I’m using over £500 worth of metal plus a cover and a camera and that’s in a quiet corner of East London.

Ducati 748 with OEM bars is 27” wide
Most common size for a UK door is 30”
Put a small pice of cardboard down where the kink is to see if you can slide it laterally when you get to that bit.

Good luck, should be mostly doable by sitting on the thing and walking it along with a mate behind to help slide the rear across.

I often do and I’m not

In fairness to myself I have a 100% penalty record

Before the universe came into being there was Messi, making space.

It’s what we deserve

In this weather, take a sickie.

If that’s the only goal in two hours of football, I don’t feel robbed.

I’m halfway through episode 3, super cheesy, fairly obvious plot twists so far with all the reveals well signposted. Loving it, great scenery with terrible acting, perfect combo for cold weather train commuting.

Happy to be wrong

This game has dodgy VAR penalty decision to Spain written all over it

Personally I’d wear the giro leather shoes without air holes.

Mum has one, its a great car

Has anyone tried the reboot of Willow? Is it worth a watch?

He’s on about touring Europe on his own, take the hint.

Welcome to the powered two wheelers corner.
As Airhead said, you only start learning to ride after you pass. Having done a rusty rider earlier this year the instructors were clear, the DAS only teaches you what you need to pass the test, it doesn’t teach you to be a good rider.

To be a safer rider, I’d pay attention to the doom and gloom of nick and his raising awareness campaign on this thread, also watch this: https://youtu.be/hniCYWivitY
its a guy called teapot one doing his bike safe course, its the commentary he has while riding that makes it valuable as a video on awareness and observation.
The things we need to watch out for are similar to those on a cycle, it’s just we are approaching them faster so have less reaction time, positioning and being ready to brake/accelerate from trouble is even more important. Flip side, we have way more safety gear, airbags are ace, Knox urbane armoured shirts allow you to get use from your cycling gear without having to splash out on pricey bike gear (this morning at 4c I wore warm cycling gear over a Knox shirt) and was toasty.
Enjoy your chosen lid life crisis, its cheaper than a Ferrari and can be quicker off the line.

That’s crying out for someone with a 5m selfie stick to come along and push it over.

I have a GS with alu cases

I knew that.
Seriousness though, why off-road a grom when a monkey is almost off-road ready and makes a cool scrambler?

Also second dibs for a spin

Would it take 2x35L hard case side panniers and a 55L hard case top box?
If not, is it a true ADV dad bike?

Be sensible and convert a grom to a chopper, complete with monkey hanger bars, peanut tank and a bobber seat you fool.
