Well these were the easiest inserts I’ve fitted. Like a 10 minute job. They don’t have the structure of a Rimpact or Cushcore-type but ought to help. I am kinda left thinking that I could just have cut strips from a sleeping mat though. 🤷♂️ #cycling

After a daft off, I rode the last ~50km of my ride the other day needing to hold the lever to the bar with my little finger while on the hoods in order to use the brake. #cycling #gravel

I knew it’d wind me up so don’t know why I ever clicked on it, so am not gonna link to it either, but the latest Grauniad buyers guide includes a ‘best stove for wild campers’ that uses charcoal briquettes. And weighs 6kg. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Had a right laid back ride with the Fatties yesterday. Caught the train over to the Wirral, rode across it, then back around the coast, train back to Liverpool, then ride home. #fatbike #cycling

I’ve got a parts bin/fleaBay/budget flat bar ‘#gravel’ build coming together for a friend. Would likely have been completed today were it not for Evri’s incompetence. “Out for delivery” my arse. #cycling

There don’t seem many signets on the local canal this time round compared to recent years, but rode past a few this evening. #ukBirds

Went to an antique place to look for a gift for my mother’s 80th. Tempted, so so tempted by this … purely as I know she’d be too polite to say she didn’t like it. 😬

Been asked to act as a pallbearer tomorrow which I’m proud to be, but they’re playing Golden Slumbers to accompany the coffin’s arrival. I’m not crying; You’re crying. 😭 https://youtu.be/AcQjM7gV6mI

Listened to #WardleyDubois last night then watched this morning. Absolutely ridiculous. Wardley is a beast. How the feck did he survive that while staying standing? #boxing

Perhaps #TMI but it may give someone else strength: A big day today. I’m moving out on separating with K after 30+ years together and 20 years married. Amicably, and we each know it’s the right thing to do. Mentally and emotionally we split up years ago, but now practically too. It’s never too late to take a positive step and make a fresh start. Look forward with hope, not backwards with regret. ❤️✌️😊

Aww love&#39;s young dream … &#39;A&#39; is a riding buddy who&#39;s taken to using my snaps on her socials. &#39;B&#39; was also riding last night and likes A so asked for any photos I might have of him but also A so he&#39;d have an excuse to get in touch and share them with her. But there&#39;s a &#39;C&#39;. C was riding last night too. C has noticed A&#39;s recent photos and C seems like like A. A has asked me for photos of C so she&#39;ll hav...

Went searching for a sunset on last night&#39;s #gravel ride, but ended up walking a guy off the fell with a broken collar bone after an OTB, arm supported in a sling made from inner tubes. First time he&#39;d ridden with us too. 😬️ #cycling #bikeTooter

With the election results overnight and this morning I&#39;m reminded once again that all this is fake. You&#39;re alright, you lot: That&#39;s why I follow you. Even back on Xitter I&#39;d managed to curate my feed so as to live in blissful ignorance of too many&#39;s true feelings and intentions. But then just like the Brexit vote, the 2017 GE, and the &#39;green wave&#39; now, every so often reality smacks you down. ✊🏼️ Go punch a nazi.

I'm not really a motor racing fan, but there's something about #motorcycle road racing that appeals as a spectacle. #motorbikes #superbikes https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/motorsport/live/c77m70enlp4t#player

RE: https://masto.hypertelia.com/@pete/116492846899028046 Kinda related to this, in my day job, I&#39;m currently trying to untangle a mess that&#39;s ultimately come about because of content building tools given to non-tech folk that allow them to put together web pages with zero regard as to what&#39;s realistic. It is quite bonkers that there are so many features and so much functionality taken for granted as just going to work. #webDev

#Cycling #PSA Go check you&#39;ve got a chain quick link with whatever you carry when you&#39;re out. Don&#39;t assume the one you think you have is actually there. Yesterday I learned it wasn&#39;t, discovering this about as far down this valley as you can see. Amazingly I was bailed out by the only other cyclist I passed all ride. Thank you Stu, whoever you are! #BikeTooter #MTB
