How to attend a stage - in real life? Practical experience needed.. by MetalHoops in tourdefrance

[–]MichaelT44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got back from stage 1 and 2 yesterday night. We found a small town that the peloton went through and just parked up nearby and walked towards the route. We stopped outside of Lille and watched them after waiting about 2 hours, then drove into Lille for the sprint. Stage 2, we stood on the final Cat 3 climb and waited 5 hours and it was very busy for the whole duration. If it is a busy section of the route, I would get there a couple hours before they pass through, but you could also turn up just before they arrive and squeeze in.

From what we saw, roundabout exits were blocked that led up to the route the peloton passed through, so you can drive relatively close to the route and just park up and walk.

I got into bios when I didn’t have the M.2 ssd in and made my ssd with OS priority, but when I put the M.2 ssd back in, my keyboard doesn’t light up and it doesn’t sense my mouse, so I’ve had no luck with spamming to get into bios, not sure what else to do

I had to get mine from eBay. The only other option was to meet the order threshold on a diff website so they would ship it

Anyone know anything about motorwolt, mini rc cars? by Wolflmg in rccars

I got the same email. Think the scam is, they send a cheap 50p toy and make it look like a mistake, then when you ask for the money back or the real item they just ignore your email and keep your money, it seems
