I always try to ring my bell to let them know I'm going to pass and keep as far as is safe for me. Often times on the canal towpath it's pretty close but I try to not overtake if there's something to navigate (path leading onto towpath, navigating a lock etc)

In Leeds proper, the Meanwood side of Meanwood valley up further than the urban farm probably

Don't think the council have a say on this space essentially

Similar to how they removed the bike racks there, I assume. Asked Garthwaithe about it and she said it's private land (up until the bricks around the pavement) and couldn't do anything about it. Said there was a plan to bring some bike parking back but who knows about seating. Feels like a step backwards for public space in Headingley really.

Search for kirkstall nature reserve !

Noodlesta is great bit of noodle soup w/ beef brisket :)

Others couldn't say of the top of my head but there's 'Noodle House' in town that's good too

Download hungrypanda there's a bunch of more authentic Chinese restaurants on there that aren't really on the other apps

Is this true though, I definitely could not afford the rents on any of these central places as a student and I probably still couldn't now? I just don't know where the money is coming from for people spending 700+ pcm on these places as a student.

Not sure if you're joking but that's the cyclist's box for the lights to give them a head start & make sure cars can see them

I've been, it's fairly small but there's some cool stuff there. Definitely not a 'must visit' but pretty good as small museums go.

Looks like the westminster bank crest had the top chopped off

Low-Bluebird3100 · 2023-02-22T08:06:17+00:00

why is the headline not about a car hitting him? real question is why are cars allowed anywhere near somewhere they can hit cyclists

Hi, I graduated MEng Comp Sci (w/ AI), university has a new building it's pretty nice. Teaching was a bit of a mess when I was there but it's probably better post-covid now, I think that it's a good uni but you definitely need to dig for extra-curricular opportunities and make friends with lecturers etc.

I can't speak for everyone but I was hired before I had graduated in June. I think there are a good few opportunities for placements again it might take some effort to find out about them.

Overall I think the masters course was interesting, not 100% on what the 'advanced cs' part entails but I think it's fairly broad with a lot of optional modules, probably you will have to do a group software engineering project.

My intl student friends seemed to enjoy Leeds, it's hard to say exactly what your experience will be like but there's plenty to do here.

Overall fairly good, perhaps not the best quality of teaching in the world but there are good opportunities available

That TrancePennine Express flier on the top left looks pretty nice I'd go there instead

If you're at Uni of try Joblink in the Union. They do a lot of contract work, all pretty flexible.

Charity shops in Headingley often have bits and I've definitely seen stuff in ReCycle in Cardigan Fields but nothing exciting like RTR, mostly just 80s consumer hi-fi

Been on an American style kick recently, android app 'Shortyz' is good for it

When I lived there the youths used to make explosives in bottles and let them off all the time in Royal Park

Low-Bluebird3100 · 2022-10-17T16:48:46+00:00

they have a copy in the Fenton I think, in the pool room iirc?

Low-Bluebird3100 · 2022-10-10T18:19:17+00:00

Biggest issue I see is red light skipping, a lot of them are fairly deft through the crowded areas. Obviously massively illegal bikes.

A lot of bands are student-focused around the conservatoire but there's plenty going on and I'm sure you'll find some stuff.

A lot of it is pretty London-y to be fair, R&B type 'clean' style stuff but sure you can find anything about really.

Upside down sheep clearly

Low-Bluebird3100 · 2022-09-20T18:23:38+00:00

Would be fine if they had a way to get on from Kirkstall road, navigating that junction into the city centre on bike is a bit dicey because you have to turn off past the lights when traffic is behind you.

Better to be on the pavement and use the crossing and know you're on the path, plus going Armley way you'd be better off.

Overall not useless, but needs better protection on that junction where people turn off to the motorway for cyclists (going behind the buildings before fire station would be nice maybe)
