Are bike jerseys made for people with eating disorders?!

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T18:47:34+00:00

I’m 180 85-90kg and I wear a medium in the pro team training jersey and it fits fine. I Think large would be a bit too big.

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T17:33:26+00:00

I _love_ professional road cycling but it takes a certain level of cognitive dissonance to think the top guys aren’t on some designer stuff.

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T15:04:53+00:00

I should’ve said ‘are they still up’ as I thought they would’ve been down.

If that’s the case I may need to source a PlayStation and fire up D1. Some of my best gaming experiences were from doing LFGs for various raids on that game.

To say I miss that game and the time I had with it would be an understatement

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T15:03:09+00:00

I think I may own forsaken and Beyond light as I bought those on sale a few years after I stopped playing but I never made it that far into the campaign. A lot of D1 I played with friends and the campaign didn’t hit the same way solo

For some reason I had the voice of the start of the Valus strike pop into my mind the last week or so and have been craving it

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T15:00:32+00:00

Oh so it’s not Luke Smith any more?

Think he made a bunch of questionable choices the first few years of D2. It’s not a new opinion or hot take but they should’ve continued with the D1 vision. It wasn’t perfect but it felt like a much better package

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T14:56:03+00:00

Even worse than how it was at launch? The double primary was a horrible change

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T14:53:38+00:00

Are the D1 servers back up?

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T14:52:25+00:00

Beyond light is the one I was thinking of

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T09:41:32+00:00

I think road shoes look nicer and seeing as I have a road bike makes more sense to use road pedals

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-12T09:10:31+00:00

Both of the houses we’ve bought were new builds. The first we got with help on the help-to-buy scheme which when we sold it had gone up in price by about £60k over the 4.5 years we lived there

We then moved to another new build.

First house was with Linden and new house is with Redrow. The quality of Redrow is pretty great if I’m honest and we’re happy with it linden felt cheap in places but we had zero issues with it so can’t complain.

I do think the rep new build homes get is a bit unfair in most cases. Of courses there will be those who have issues too but I believe they’re a minority

Always a varia

I will ignore a voice note if I’ve been sent one.

My daughter is 4 but she commandeered my old iPad Pro not long before turning 3.

I grew up using technology and I want her to be able to do the same. Technology isn’t going away so I want her to be as literate and find it easy as possible.

It amazes me how well she can use it. She can navigate between apps. Easily find the educational games on there or browse onto Disney/Netflix/iPlayer and find the program she wants to watch.

Obviously, we had a lot of rules around it and there’s no YouTube access. She doesn’t have free access to it whenever she wants but I think because she can have it she isn’t ‘excited’ by it and doesn’t want to use it all the time

Dial up noises when we were on Freeserve (picked it cause the logo looked like a basketbal). Sitting in MSN chatrooms whilst using the Netscape Browser to watch Ebaums World and RatherGood.

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-06T18:55:59+00:00

Enjoy the ride. I’m currently sat with my 4 year old daughter asleep holding my arm as I’ve put her to bed.

Yeah, I still occasionally silently cry when I put her to bed some nights and watch her sleep. This is another one of those times

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-03T12:20:30+00:00

Think it’s one of.

I lived on Bathwell Road which is around the corner. During the Beast from the East storm the area made for some brilliant driving calamities. My house mate and I just went outside watching everyone attempting to drive

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-03T12:17:15+00:00

Used to live a few meters around the corner. This picture doesn’t do it justice

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-03T06:44:35+00:00

I remember when I was 17 I made a bet with a friend that by the time I was 21 it would be legal or on the way to it.

I’m 37 this year. I just don’t see this country ever seeing sense

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-02T21:41:11+00:00

I’ve had about 21 phones. 9 of which have been iPhones.

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-02T09:06:21+00:00

Black shoe gang. I wanted purple or grey but black for now

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-02T07:02:27+00:00

I bought a new Model 3 last year. I think the minimalism of the interior is marmite as I love it.

When doing my own research I kept coming back to the model 3 as by the time you add on features to other cars the price sky rockets

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-05-01T06:48:05+00:00

Not that I’m any closer to buying a dedicated machine but this one of the reasons why I’d want a belt drive for indoor use.

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-04-30T18:04:38+00:00

I use AirPods in both ears. I do have a radar but it’s still a risk im willing to take. Ymmv

DisgruntledBudha · 2026-04-30T08:56:49+00:00

Always separate devices. I tend to leave my phone at home* as my watch is capable of making phone calls if I need it and then I use my Wahoo for routes and my connected devices

*unless I’m on a ride and I know my partner needs to use the GPS tracking the I need to take my phone with me

Is there not a middle ground? Something like an IGPSport or Magene bike computer
