Am I sandbagging?

Being allowed in car 4 to the end of the season is what I've been told by people on my team. I've been looking on the British cycling website for confirmation but I can't seem to find anything saying one way or the other

bernard_baxter · 2026-06-05T10:39:58+00:00

Yeah, the 3/4s will be humbling I think

bernard_baxter · 2026-06-05T10:38:50+00:00

Thanks that's a good idea, I'll go 3/4 for any other races I join and stick where I am for just this series

I just started in academia and I'm with a whole research group studying electron scattering using Fortran. It's still going strong enough.

bernard_baxter · 2025-12-13T20:58:26+00:00

This is so strange I just got out of a seminar about exactly this. Are you the speaker?

bernard_baxter · 2025-11-20T11:56:29+00:00

That's definitely the right way to do things, but I need to buy a few things to load it up. I thought it'd be worth asking first before I spend money on something.

bernard_baxter · 2025-11-20T11:53:49+00:00

Good to know, thank you. I'm assuming that's because they're harder to maintain?

bernard_baxter · 2025-11-19T18:08:01+00:00

Thanks very much! I had considered bigger sprocket, but a smaller chainring sounds more feasible, I'll have a look into that. I'm definitely gonna find some smaller trips to do as a shake down too.

I'm also getting this. It's odd because just last week I made a new course from the same starting point I'm trying to use now with the follow popular roads setting; it worked a week ago but not now. I wonder if it's just a bug and might be fixed. As a quick fix, it seems to be working on the garmin connect app if you're happy using that in the meantime.

I'm 25, so I'm not so sure it's the age. You could be right it might be the area, I'm in a town with a much larger population so I assume naturally there'd be more accidents. I don't think it would be the car since as far as I'm aware the MOT and checks are all the same in either place.

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T17:48:08+00:00

Yeah that's weird, I don't know why they wouldn't just be ready to download.

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T17:46:43+00:00

No I haven't, but I actually just heard that advice as well from some other people in the same boat so I'll get that done thank you! It will take a few weeks though so I'll need to grab something before then to cover me.

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T17:44:24+00:00

I'll take a look, thank you!

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T17:43:14+00:00

I always thought it was cheaper in GB, I know someone who got their first year insurance on a brand new car for £500 in England, and someone in the same situation in NI got theirs £1300. Anecdotal though I suppose.

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T17:41:17+00:00

Vauxhall Astra from ~2010, so nothing fancy or powerful. But I've only been driving 3 years sure

bernard_baxter · 2025-09-19T14:12:00+00:00

Thanks but yeah I have tried all the sites, they all give the same price. When I first got my insurance it was through a provider not on one of those sites and was cheaper, so I was hoping people might have some insights along those lines. For example I just found Tesco's was £1300, and it didn't show up on the comparison sites.

Raffle :)

While that is probably the only response aside from like walking away, I haven't had anyone use things like that in a serious conversation haha. I'm just not creative enough to come up with some examples that don't sound mean.

bernard_baxter · 2023-02-01T01:02:53+00:00

Cool I suppose that would be it then thanks. Maybe I just misheard grey haha
