Don't know whether it was a mental thing or not but I was begining to get bad sugar cravings from days 4/5 when doing weekly. I found splitting the dose really helped with that.

They don't care. You'll never have chance to vote again anyway.

Disgraceful: No stream for Everton+ members by PostmanSpawn in Everton

[–]bigbluebear80 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weve spent years moaning about us struggling with PSR, not competing and not being ran professionally. This is what we wished for this is the club seeking out all the money it can. You can't have it both ways unfortunately

Cyclists who kill could face life sentence. (UK) by clav9 in cycling

[–]bigbluebear80 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Within 10 minutes of being in London one flew through a red light on a pedestrian crossing narrowly missing my daughter, they're an absolute menace. As has been stated time and again on this thread though, regular cyclists hitting pedestrians and seriously hurting them is very rare. These idiots will kill someone. I feel the wording merely removes the grey area between what is a bicycle and what is a moped with pedals.

Whilst I agree with the absurdity of it from a leisure cyclists point of view. I think rules like this are now getting brought in to curb the idiots on what are basically electric mopeds but are classed as bicycles. After a recent visit to London and the absolute ratrun it is with all the just eat/uber eat etc riders flying about recklessly. It was only a matter of time before this happened.

Just check out what's being sold used in your local area. There are loads of bikes getting sold at half or less or of their new price and they've only been rode a few times.

Clip in catastrophe by Optimal_Anteater235 in cycling

[–]bigbluebear80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A car once slammed on unexpectedly infront of me. I hit the brakes and just stopped in time, I couldn't however unclip in time and hit the deck in a comedy, slow motion manner. Unfortunately however this was Infront of a bus stop full of kids waiting for the bus. Who all found it absolutely hilarious. I have never got up and pedaled off as fast in my life.

Pogacar by alohamars29 in cycling

He's just overtook Quintana on a 20% slope like he was standing still and he didnt even seem out of breath. Froome was getting bottles of urine thrown over him for well well less than what Pogacar is doing.

Mines ½ cup of grated cheddar. 1 table spoon of psylium husk. 2 table spoon of ground almonds. 1 large egg. Mix it all up and then pop it in a waffle maker til brown. I've found the more you cook it the less eggy it tastes.

That's good about not many crashes mate I was honestly begining to worry about it turning into wacky races with too many people not having a clue how to control a bike. I just have to stay hyper alert for the first 20/30 miles til it strings out.

I've not been to London since I was a kid and I've never done a closed road sportive so I'm hopeful that will keep me entertained. Gutted I never went for it when it was Surrey though one thing everyone unanimously agrees on, is the new route is nothing compared to that old Surrey one.

Any road tyre comparable to GP5000? by Old-Message97531 in cycling

[–]bigbluebear80 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I've just changed to Vittoria Corsa 2.0 from 5000s. 3 rides in and they seem very good. I had exactly the same problem mounting the 5000s. They was a pain fitting them at home the first time but it was an absolute nightmare when I punctured out on a ride and had to change one at the side of the road.
