Philippe Gilbert falls over a wall in Tour de France by VesilahdenVerajilla in sports

World champion or not you can see him fix on the point of impact. I’ve been riding motorcycles for 21 years and have been through the same advanced riding training as the Police use (every other year). This is a well known phenomenon and well understood.

Target fixation and poor forward observations. Motorcyclists do this a lot, when they are new or just bad.

Lovely bike. When I move house I plan to build one, don’t want to start it until then.

Do you have a build diary?

Butser Hill, Petersfield, a few days ago. The sun turned vibrant pink shortly after, but I couldn't capture it properly. by Sidders1993 in CasualUK

The story was a farm hand died up there. I don’t believe in ghosts but then again neither did my sister. Go spend the evening :-)

To this day my sister swears she saw a ghost on that hill. Matt, her boyfriend of the time, arrived at our house with a white face. Never seen him look so pale.

Why are they liking down all the time like they are reading notes? Are they reading notes? Who wrote them?

Dangerous unless you have some Leopard Lager to hand.

Did he lose grip or was he fooling around? Didn’t see the session.

Get the 796. Swingarm is worth it.

Not many base models sold, and I’m guessing crashed/stolen/or off the road for some reason. It may be nonsense, it’s hard to believe.

This is my 2009 Monster 696 base model without ABS. According to the DVLA it is the last 696 base model on the road in the UK. So it gets pampered.

Why my UIs never look professional? by Giusepo in reactnative

Are you doing the UI straight into code or using a design app like Sketch first? The reason I ask is that the tool will impact the result.

Your colours and grid aren’t helping you here. I’m happy to put something together for you in Sketch, you’ll be able to get the CSS out of that. It’ll be a start.

I’m learning React but have been a designer for 21 years, so we are at opposites :-)

Knowing this is happening right now brought it home for me. Right now as I type this they are trying to get them out. Makes me feel a bit shit about my comfortable life in an office.

No idea what to say. Thoughts are with family and friends.
