okay then

Cowabunga.

Yeah, the wall is such bullshit on many levels, literally driving the Cartels further underground.
Apparently nearly two hundred tunnels have been discovered since 1990 on the U.S-Mexico border. How many others remain undetected?

One border official in the above article says that the border "looks like Swiss cheese" when you consider tunnels.

I'm asking for £900 ONO. Can collect from me in Swansea or I will use a courier to you, will ship inside or outside of U.K. Courier costs will depend on where you are outside of the U.K., so will provide quote when interest is expressed. Will also use courier with insurance to cover total value of the bike so expect between £30-£40 in the U.K.

Selling this jersey as I am too rotund for it. Pity as it seems to be a really nice bit of thermal kit.

Apparently full RRP for this is usually £159.99 but I'll let it go for £60. Postage will be free.

Pearl Izumi Pro Thermal Cycling Jersey, size medium. Anatomical fit. Rated 10 out of 10 or 9 out of ten in many reviews, the only negative is generally the price, but here you can have it much less than the recommended retail price of £159.99. Read the excellent Cycling Weekly review:

https://www.cyclingweekly.com/reviews/jerseys-tops/pearl-izumi-pro-thermal-jersey

"Despite initial scepticism regarding the thin Thermal+ material the
Pro Thermal is actually a very impressive jersey. Capable of keeping
you warm in cooler conditions without the overheating that can be
associated with thicker long sleeve jerseys. It also works very well
under a jacket thanks to the low bulk construction. The pockets and
other features such as the stiffened collar are also well thought out
and make the jersey a pleasure to wear. The price however is a little
steep and this prevents it from getting perfect marks."

I'm really looking forward to this ride, particularly as I'm in January winter blues mode after being hit with two consecutive bouts of mega lurgy.

Bring on fucking spring!

I stopped watching before he hit the ground. His fall was enough.

But he's back on the bike now, riding Revs. Awesome resilience.

Tom Walker, the guy who nearly took himself out permanently on the railway gap in Pemberton rode Revolution Bike Park on the weekend. Amazing that he can even ride, great to see.

We now know who you'll start with then.
:-D

The EU will still be a spectre they'll conjure up to blame, even long term, for issues caused by Brexit and the continued fucking of the country by the Tories themselves.

And immigrants, of course. Those that are left.

At some point with how insular Britain will be they'll run out of outsiders to blame.

If heavy winds catch them and the earth spins twice as fast will we all be shot off the face of the earth into outer space?

What did you think of the first episode, at any rate?

There was a massive social media output from the Grant siblings for the past couple of years, visible and risable supporters of Brexit and Farage.
I thought they were paid agents of Banks and co. and in their early twenties, turns out they're school kids who were then promoted by the Brexit machine.
Not sure what relevance this has now but it's an interesting doc at any rate.

Wireless headphones for the next episode then.

First episode of Picard is damn good.

Can see the resemblance between his dog and Riker.

Calling @Howard...

Learning how to levitate over the bogs of eternal stench will be more useful for Badgers rides.

Nice.

Now reading "Neurotribes: the legacy of autism and how to think smarter about people who think differently" by Steve Silberman.

Finished the book a couple of days ago. Very good. What did you think?

I now have nostalgia for a building I never saw, the Temple of Serapis. Nixey's descriptions of its beauty made the razing of it so poignant.
And the fates of Hypatia of Alexandria and Demascius, so sad.
