My Moto G4+ has recently started blacking out at random times. Just goes dead with no warning, when the battery is often over 80% charged.

I've been in touch with Motorola and they say that as it's over 30 days old the only option is to send it away to them for repair. Obviously this is inconvenient - it'll probably take a week.

Has anyone got any other suggestions? Is there a way around this?

Couple of bits of furniture that need to go:

1. Malm chest of drawers in white stained oak veneer. This one. £20?

2. CD tower shelving unit thingy. FREE. Looks a bit like the image below. Roughly 2m tall.

I can take photos if required.

Collection only from N4 - they're both fairly big, obviously, so a van or large car may be required.

Can anyone recommend a driving instructor/school in North London?

Global average is lower than that I believe.

Saw an amusing incident involving a Boris biker wearing a Hovding (cycling airbag helmet thingy) a couple of days ago near the Brunswick - I think he took a corner too fast, skidded a little bit, bumped the kerb lightly, and bosh the Hovding inflated around his head with a loud bang. It He looked fairly embarrassed, as he tried to take it off.

Those things are expensive, and single-use right? I guess it's better for them to be too sensitive than the opposite, but I'll stick with a helmet for now.

The long route is here
There are a couple of obvious cut-off points if you wanted to shorten it. Well worth going up to Dunkery to include the best DH section.

Yikes. Looks like it takes in similar trails around Minehead. Might need a more XC-oriented bike for that though - obviously the bike is the limiting factor, not the rider...

Just about recovered from the Exmoor MTB marathon this weekend - I think I underestimated it. Plenty of technical single track climbs (Porlock is unrelenting!) and the descents were less tame than I was expecting. The rocky descent from the top of Dunkery was fun.

I got passed by a fair few serious XC types going up, but I managed to get a few of them back on the descents...

Condor stock Swrve (jeans and also shorts).

Prufrock, if it's on your commute?

Nice frame, lovely build.

Wish I was a little bit shorter...

DIBS.

Nexus dock is now for sale on eBay. Shoes still going free.

Still got these - £15 anyone?

Saddles, stem and bars now gone.

Shoes and Nexus thingy still available, I guess I'll probably charity shop them soon if nobody wants them.

Pics...

All of it?

Clearing out, don't need this stuff. Feel free to make a forum / charity donation. Collection N6.

1. Charge Spoon saddle. Was once white, now sort of blueish. Gone

2. Specialized saddle - 155mm. Black. Gone

3. Northwave shoes. Very used, but still intact. Size 43.

4. Cinelli quill stem, 1 inch I think. Gone

5. Combo: Drop bars with 2 x dia compe brake levers attached, inc bar tape and old quill stem. Very beater. Gone

6. O/T: A handy charging dock / stand for a Google Nexus 7 like this one that I no longer have.

Sold.

#gone

Was useful when I didn't have a computer, but I don't use it any more. Still works.

Come and collect from N6.

I'm having trouble uploading the photos I took, but it looks like this:

Provisionally sold...

As per title - I won an eBay auction but don't want them. They came from Wiggle, presumably a return. They were described as "New with defects" : "Shoes have been tried on for sizing, has scratches on the soles(see photos). Comes in original box. Box slightly damaged."

Couple of eBay photos attached, they're in the same condition - you can see the "scratch" on one of the soles, it's nothing really. Comes with all the stuff - inserts for the soles, shoe bag, original box etc.

I tried them on but decided I don't like laces, although they look great. They've clearly never been worn outdoors and never had cleats fitted.

I paid £108 including postage which is very cheap for these shoes I think, so just looking to pass on the saving. If there's no interest by the weekend I'll return them and get my money back.

Collection from N6 evenings or WC1N in the daytime. I'd rather not post.

Which distance did you do? I'm doing the Exmoor event (and also possibly the Peaks in Sept) - mates have done it previously and said it's good fun and well organised as you say.

I rode up Porlock on the road bike last year and thought there must be some good descents around there...

Wheels now gone!
