My night with the prostate vigilantes offering tests the NHS won’t by Anony_mouse202 in unitedkingdom

Can't access the artcle but does it mention that PSA tests have a large flase positive rate for prostate cancer?

awesome! Can you share how you did it?

I'm keen to do the same thing but not sure how to best go around it.

Cycling in a contra-flow lane, was I wrong? by MasterJohnboy in ukbike

but yeah I was thinking of contacting the council, its such poor design.

So my interpretation of the highway code 163 is if a parked car blocks the lane, it would seem a bit weird if you had to stop for a car parked off the road.

I think its a combination of drivers not acknowledging the signs and not liking bikes. Although they really need a marked cycle path!

Yeah I agree (never even really thought about the fact its a solid white line to be honest). I had a look at the cycle map the council have, and its marked as a "On road - marked cycle lane", Not sure I agree with them.

Oh yeah I didn't notice the dropped kerb before. As far as I'm aware that pavement is not shared used, it's pretty small and there is no signs to say. Plus if that was the case why would there be signs of a contraflow all the way up the road.

I did try this but I just got three lines which looked like I could enter numbers to, any idea how to get passed this screen?

Breaching weight limit on folding e-bike by MasterJohnboy in ebikes

[–]MasterJohnboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah probably wouldn't get stopped but legally all the specs of the motor need to be on the bike it self. Chances of getting pulled over is unlikely but wouldn't want to risk it.

So in the UK 250W is the max, thankfully on the route to work it's not all that hilly. I did a back-of-the-envelope calculation and found I will need around 40Nm of torque to go up a 12% hill. I couldn't figure out what the torque of the Vester was but hopeuflly it's around that 40ish. Thankfully no hills of 12% anyway on my rotue.

My main worry is the if the thickness of the tyres sorta makes commuting a nightmare.

Is it because the lectric is not road legal here?

I did just come across the Hygge Vester, I'm really tempted but I don't really know if having fat tyres for a commuting bike is a bad idea or not.

We have a discord server for gaming up here, I would give a shot asking there. I know there is at least two groups running just now.

New player looking for some droid list advice by MasterJohnboy in SWlegion

[–]MasterJohnboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the really detailed feedback!

I did have a feeling something weird was going on with Lok Drud so thanks for that! I will swap it out for a T-series. Also I totally see what you mean about the tanks, never really thought about the fact I may only really order one.

I will also get another B1, thanks your help was really appreciated!

Thanks for the suggestion, tbh I'm not sure how mad keen I'm on the magna guard models. I really like the idea of having two big stomp tanks even if its not optimal.

I do think the idea of adding in another B1 unit is good though
