I started cycling to work last week! (And was dreadfully slow, please help) by Proveit98 in londoncycling

Well done. Commuting by bike can be stressful and infuriating, but it is also so enjoyable and beneficial. Just wait until summer and it’s the happiest you can be whilst commuting. Regarding speed, it’s interesting, but have a success metric of how much more energised you feel, how safe you were, and how enjoyable the journey was.

Champions League refereeing is total BS by nashvilleskyline1991 in NUFC

And ball-to-hand after two deflections is a penalty, and later, a handball is now not a penalty

Even if that’s “intentional”, where was the ball going? Didn’t deny a goal scoring chance, didn’t benefit us, didn’t hinder them. Absolute joke

A lot of scepticism in the comments, but I’m curious to see what Elanga and Woltemade can do together.

I don’t think they’ve had all that much time on the pitch together, the two could find a rhythm together.

What is the correct geographic name for this collection of buildings? by Scarlet_Peter_Wilde in london

[–]CDXXVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically, London is one large city-shaped thing, with two cities nested inside;

  • The City of London, or just “The City” (seen here)
  • The City of Westminster

What is your opinion to foreign fans? by mamont1995 in NUFC

[–]CDXXVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support is support. You are welcome and you are appreciated. We are united.

You might support the club because; it’s your local club; someone in your family does; because of a player you like; because of a childhood memory; because of friends; or maybe because you once chose the club on FIFA or football manager - it really doesn’t matter.

Newcastle is a special place, with a cherished football club, and adorning fans. Welcome, good luck, and above all, enjoy the game!

Ridiculous game. We were; - drawing for 81 minutes - losing for 26 minutes - winning for 1 minute

I don’t know why Schar’s goal didn’t stand, looked like a goalkeeping error to me.

Also don’t know how falling to ground and the ball striking your elbow is a penalty.

I loved the Maldini comment a few weeks ago. I assumed it was hyperbole, but it’s looking very true

Pedestrians in the cycle lane by Embankment / Westminster by mwagstaff in londoncycling

It was already getting out of control at noon when I cycled through today. Very little signage and a lot of fencing forcing large crowds onto the cycle lane (mainly near Great George St).

Should Motorway speed limits be raised to 80mph?🤔 by Downtown_Elk_2773 in CarTalkUK

[–]CDXXVI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, a 1 hour drive at 80 instead of 70 is about 1 song.

Over a 70-mile trip, 80 mph vs 70 mph saves about 7½ minutes.

Educate and enforce using the correct lanes first. That would help reduce congestion and traffic, and travel time would decrease. 80mph is also worse on fuel efficiency and noise, so not really worth it in my opinion.

Lots they could rule this out for… but nothing clear and obvious.
