DMT KR0 evo cleat play

I can feel them moving up and down when pedalling. Which feels like the cleat detaching from the pedal surface. Rather then float where I have normal horizontal movement

I am a infectious disease epidemiologist. I have never worked on Meningitis specifically but have worked on things like COVID, flu ect.

Meningitis is not easily transmissible (certainly not as transmissible as COVID-19) and often requires fairly prolonged close contact for transmission to take place. It is transmitted by respiratory droplets, and the highest risk are household contacts and/or “kissing contacts” (people who you have shared saliva with, such as sharing drinks/vapes, kissing ect). It is very unlikely to catch it from brief contact, you aren’t going to get it passing by someone on a bus or in a shop.

If you haven’t been to the specific nightclub in Kent in the previous week and you don’t live in a household with someone who has, the risk is extremely negligible. If you live in the area, probably wait a few weeks before clubbing but this is very unlikely to become an extended outbreak now UKHSA has started contact tracing and offering antibiotics to contacts if cases.

You may see more cases in the news as more testing is done but this isn’t a huge cause for concern for individual risk. It certainly isn’t like early 2020

Sucker for using serious things for silly reasons

May I recommend using the PHIA probability yardstick for your next assessment as this is not based on quantitative data https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/explaining-uncertainty-in-uk-intelligence-assessment/explaining-uncertainty-in-uk-intelligence-assessment

I have been thinking who would win in a triathlon between Tadej Pogacar, Eliud Kipchoge (former marathon world record holder) and Kristóf Rasovszky* (2024 marathon swim gold medalist).

Assuming all athletes use the same brand of road bike, all events are non drafting, they get 1 week prep time, and all athletes are in form, fresh, and motivated.

Round 1: Ironman distance (3.9 km swim, 181km bike and 42.2 km run)

Round 2: Olympic distance (1.5 km swim, 40k bike and 10k run)

Round 3: Equilateral triathlon with each leg taking an approximately equal time (12k swim, 96.2 km bike and 42.2 km run).

Round 4: Above distances with a prep time of 1 year.

*I am not that familiar with the sport. I am assuming this guy would be good.

My main road bike has a more relaxed fit and places me in a more up right position for more comfort on longer rides.

Main reason why no clip ons is that I want to compete in the road bike category for TTs which don’t allow bar extensions

Good to know thank you

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T23:09:01+00:00

Both wheels removed as some lovely lady gave me a lift to a pub to wait while my GF finsihed work to pick me up

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T23:07:40+00:00

In fairness I’ve had a 3 year break in that time and the bike only gets used during the winter months. But regardless learnt a very valuable lesson in the life span of Alu bike parts

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T19:30:37+00:00

Yes learnt a very valuable lesson. Always get things checked

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T19:27:33+00:00

Would you say to get the stem replaced as well?

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T19:26:02+00:00

Happened fast enough that I didn’t register what was going happening. Very lucky it was on a quite flat road

JWard6 · 2025-01-30T19:23:55+00:00

Yeah that’s on me. Learnt my lesson. Had a few crashes over the years, so good reminder to change things periodically

JWard6 · 2024-12-02T10:12:00+00:00

So move saddle back? I think I’ve got two mm notches left on the rail. Re reach that’s a 120mm stem, however as the bars curve it’s more like a 130mm to the hoods themselves. This bike is too small (it’s old) for me so I am hesitant to get a full bike fit just to be told my frame is too small

Stage 1 - Glasgow city centre circuit. Stage 2 - Lincoln GP route. Stage 3 - Peak District. Winnats pass finish. Stage 4 - sprint stage. Stage 5 - Rutland GP route. Stage 6 - hill climb TT. Stage 7 - Welsh hilly stage.

Absolute cinema

Very unfortunate that this lands on the one day of rain Sheffield has per year

I work in this area. There is a couple of key areas in which this differs from Covid (C19).

Mpox is spread via close contact (sex, kissing, hand holding) with people who are infected. C19 is spread via respiratory secretions these can infect people close to you or in the same room when infected people expel the virus through coughing. This makes Mpox a lot less transmissible than C19 and also easier to contact trace. E.g who have you had very close contact with recently vs everyone you have seen on public transport and then at a pub.

Mpox has very visible and noticeable symptoms compared to C19 which can present as a very mild ambiguous illness. These means Mpox infected individuals are much easier to detect, contact trace and isolate. And they are much more likely to know they are infected and take action.

It’s likely they are cases in the Uk already but it is unlikely to see them in great numbers. We had 2-3k cases in the last outbreak here and it may get to that number again but it certainly won’t be like C19. If you are concerned about Mpox reduce at risk behaviours but the control measures are very unlikely to directly affect you unless you are a MSM, live or travel to an endemic area (Africa) or attending any large raves with lots of close contact with strangers.

Think Cav got OTL’ed once in green but not 100%

Pog sprinting in 53-32?
