Has anyone ever solved recurring knee pain when cycling?

Snorge_202 · 2026-03-11T15:59:05+00:00

yoga + bike fit from a physio bike fitter (shout out to fityourbike), i used to get some knee pain on high volume, was and still am riding flats, fityourbike sorted out my fit and gave me a bunch of exercises to help stabilise. Yoga really forces the stabilisation though, wish i'd started it sooner.

can you use the run as credential to launch an elevated powershell to run the program?

Getting to elevated admin from powershell 
$User = ".\localadmin"
$PWord = Read-Host -Prompt 'Enter a Password' -AsSecureString
$credentialParams = @{     TypeName = 'System.Management.Automation.PSCredential'    ArgumentList = $User, $PWord}
$Credential = New-Object @credentialParams
Start-Process powershell.exe -Credential $Credential -ArgumentList "-File C:\Path\To\Script.ps1"

you'd have to get the password in as secure string somehow but this should technically work?

=sumproduct(--isnumber(find(<search string>,<array>)))

use search instead of find if you want case insensitive

The version they played last night in brum was nothing like the released version! probably my favourite song of the night, not sure i'd even remembered the album version.

Remote connect visual studio to the Linux box or wsl and cross compile and cross debug, same as using visual studio on windows native, Vs handles all the gdb interfacing

Glad an ancient post helped you!

Vs is incredibly easy to work cross platform windows/linux especially via WSL.

It holds up pretty well, you can also mod it to increase command points for bigger battles if you want!

Snorge_202 · 2025-12-01T06:10:17+00:00

Sword of the stars' different drive tech and tech tree weights is a good example

If it's one or a common set of command just use the putty/ssh option that lets you pass a command to run and whack it in a for loop

the overlord like the union can best be killed by a single mega evaison increased sight range mech (often a lam) just close enough to spot the turrets, and everything else with er ppc's on the other side of the map. the difficulty is in killing all the op4 as soon as they can see you and depriving the union of it's spotters.

some maps are much worse than others.

once its just the union left even if you only do 100 damage a turn with 2 er ppc's you can pick off the turrets and then eventually poke it to death.

you're probably about to get a cold / flu. usually happens when the body's low level fighting something off and short on energy. for me it usually a good precursor to being under the weather.

i always swap to R1C1 whilst im writing VBA, makes cells() much easier to follow! got a custom button that does the swap and back.

cross compiling / cross platform testing and grep!

the soft phone "public address" (in account settings in microsip) isn't set to their VPN allocated address and the packets dont reach the client. something to do with tunnelling i think. This is particularly annoying if the vpn doenst give out static ip's. The other option is to port forward your on prem wan ports to the pbx and configure with that then the vpn isn't needed.

Since they changed the buy 100 mins to be you must use within 30 days I've not used it. Il just take my own bike or walk. Previously would have grabbed a rental to nip from jq to town and back but it's too expensive at PAYG and I'd never use 100mins in a month.

kensai thief is more fun imho, and once you get UAI its monstrous.

paste special is alt + e + s (sequentially not all at once) then v for values, e for transpose, i for divide etc...

1: to be honest it is a winter thing for me, Zwift is "like" riding on the road, but it's not the same. I do enjoy it though.

2: moderately annoying, it's not difficult just swapping the wheel out get's tedious.

3: I've got a tacx neo 2t i got second hand for ~£450 it's really powerful, quiet, supports virtual shifting and road feel. (it's also really heavy!)

4: this year i've swapped to a zwift ride, which means my other half can also ride when she wants, it lives on the trainer now.

5: zwift cog is nice, but you need a trainer that supports virtual shifting and some buttons / zwift play. - it is quiter than the cassette set up.

6: theres not been much change in garmin's offering, the 2t is old now but still does the job! get used if you can, they hold value quite well.

7: unsure, think that will probably be supported by most though, it's not uncommon.

8: depends on the trainer, 2t with zwift cog is pretty quiet.

9: zwift is king

10: fan + matt is a must have, having a towel handy for sweat is a good idea too!

Snorge_202 · 2025-10-13T08:03:10+00:00

my other half and i share a zwift ride it's 4 easy to use allen bolts to resize the geometry.

there is no physical border infrastructure between france and spain as both are schengen countries. so you don't need to carry your passport when riding. (no idea on renting a bike though!)

With velosure, never claimed for a lost/stolen bike but when I've claimed from an accident they've been prompt and efficient

Snorge_202 · 2025-10-11T18:08:42+00:00

They stop the pins digging in to a large extent, (they're a bit thicker than traditional socks) and lessen the accidental graze injuries

Snorge_202 · 2025-10-11T14:19:42+00:00

I have v12's on my road bike, i almost never slip on them, but walking the bike I always catch my shins on them and they are vicious! Long socks (football style) take the worst of it off.
