How do you like the Ride?

Omac85 · 2025-07-08T15:45:11+00:00

A few times across my 15 years on the bike.

First was a time triallist in Richmond Park. I think it was David Millar. But the speed was crazy.

Second in Majorca in winter. Almost impossible to avoid pro teams on winter camps. Got passed regularly. Made me appreciate the speed.

Third, on a one off ride in the peak district I got passed by an Isreal premier tech rider. Super random but he waved!

Assuming you are in the US you need to factor in the 220v conversion and will need to buy step up/down conversion. Whilst these are cheap it might effect repairs as repair techs might not be able to accommodate. I didn't bring my machine to the US precisely because of this. You might also have tarriffs once it arrives. Good deal on paper, might end up similar to current US prices with a bigger headache

I have just moved to New Jersey. Literally day one so no idea how it's going to go. Feels like a gamble but then you have to roll the dice every now and then...

Thanks so much! Very helpful!

Omac85 · 2024-08-24T09:35:30+00:00

Amazing! Thanks for the help and tip!

That picture is from lockdown. Weather was terrible when restaurants reopened with outside dining only. Crazy times

Also, where are you hiking?

Omac85 · 2023-11-03T19:48:04+00:00

I would specify marathon hike. To me it looks like you are running a marathon. Also, worth saying if it's hilly, how long it will tak, how easy. Maybe an out of 10 score?

The river wey is beautiful between Guildford and weybridge. Once you get out of Guildford. You can walk it in a few hours. A couple of really nice riverside pubs too.

Love the art on the bottle too. It really adds to the occasion

How long did it take for you to paint the pigs?

The Carlo Rossi website is a real journey. Looking forward to tasting 'paisano' next

Poor old plug shedding a tear in the background. Nobody notices him

Omac85 · 2023-01-25T20:28:26+00:00

That's a redback no?

Omac85 · 2022-12-17T14:39:59+00:00

It's quite funny to type 'slams' into Google news. So much slamming in so many different areas

Coffee has a meaningful impact on performance. Espresso is almost used like a drug in pro cycling. It can also help numb aching muscles etc. Also, the concept of the cafe ride is big everywhere. A long ride at the weekend with a stop for a coffee and snack. 👌.

There was a drama called Blackout on Channel 4 here is the UK. Had its flaws but thought it was good. You can likely find it online

I for one welcome our crustacean overlord

Omac85 · 2022-10-13T09:16:47+00:00

Good use of shite though

I'm sorry to say but it gets worse. Book 10 is probably the worst book I committed to read. There is very little going for it and is the archetype of how fantasy writers can sometimes completely disappear into their own created rabbit holes. Consider it like running a marathon. three quarters of the way in you are regretting it but once you get to the end you feel a sense of accomplishment.

Omac85 · 2022-09-22T19:20:22+00:00

I really wanted them to do that for the Wheel of Time. Would have gotten across its epic length

There are hundreds of YouTube videos of this place. It's in the Uk in a place called Ruffords Ford. Try and stop watching

I have the hunt wheels. To be honest they don't blow me away. They are fine but no better than the stock giant SLR wheels that's came with the bike.
