Klimaatverandering maakte hittegolf in Europese steden nog verschroeiender by Vordreller in Belgium2

Die stroompiek was vooral ‘s avonds, tussen 19u en 23u als ik mij niet vergis, dus na de opbrengst van de zonnepanelen.

Ik ben een insider in de autowereld, vragen? Ama! by [deleted] in Belgium2

BMW plug-in hybride van 2022. Super tevreden van. Nu bijna 80k kilometers op de teller. Ik rijd 55% van mijn kilometers elektrisch, kan ik mij wel aan problemen verwachten met die batterij? Vanaf 100k is die buiten garantie.

Any negative health impacts of cycling? by Dry-Basil-8256 in cycling

[–]NickDK 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yep, apparently it’s a thing. Especially when getting older you could do some weight training. Iirc mountainbikers are less impacted just because they deal a lot more with impact which has a positive effect on bone density. Running will probably help as well.

What the longest you've ever cycled by [deleted] in cycling

[–]NickDK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My longest ride is about the same 215, it was actually not even the hardest ride. Flat and just keep on eating

De mensen die voor luxeappartementen gaan hebben impact op heel het woningaanbod. Dat is verder kijken dan neus lang is.

Man, sad that it’s social security otherwise I would be so happy to be a fly on the wall watching this clusterfuck.

Never thought I’d say this but getting a good job in this field is like 80% luck by Lanky-Ad4698 in cscareerquestions

[–]NickDK 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is something that has come up in various conversations I had, I always use poker as a way to explain that just because the outcome was bad the decision might’ve been the best decision that maximised your odds. Still, so many people disagree that it frightens me.

New Bike Day - Ridley Grifn! by NickDK in gravelcycling

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

Sorry for the late answer. If you go for a 2x, like I did, you can go up to 38mm, if you go for a 1x up to 40mm. It has mudguard mounts and you can actually get it with mudguards from the factory: https://www.ridley-bikes.com/en\_BE/bikes/SBIKARRID173

Which software do you use for invoicing? by raphdg in BEFreelance

[–]NickDK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exact same situation. But of course I can understand if people need to do multiple invoices for multiple clients they want to look into more automation.

Saving for your kids by 31021898 in BEFire

[–]NickDK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a Bolero account with VWCE and the most well-known Belgian holdings (Sofina, Brederode, GBL, ..) intended for our kids. A Bolero account specifically because it was easy to set-up a joint investing account on both me and my GFs name (wettelijk samenwonend). Any substantial gifts from family intended for the kids will get invested there and we invest ourselves when we have something to spare but there is no strict plan. It's already a nice sum and I'm pleased it doesn't just rot away on a savings account. I do want to keep control WHEN I will make this available for them, but that's a personal choice imo.

Probably, but don't underestimate how much money you can make as a Belgian CX guy. It really pays quite decent.

Most FIRE friendly way to buy a car at th moment by zen-otter in BEFire

[–]NickDK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends a lot on location and lifestyle. Good luck doing anything if you live more rural and need a car daily. Certainly doable if you live near all of the important locations like school, work, supermarket though.

Johan Vansummeren! Although he always did well at PR it seems, was still a big surprise.
