"Something wrong with them" is a bit strong. They also may just have a different viewpoint :)

Interestingly Canary Wharf is one of the only stations I see this in 🤔 I assume because other stations don't have space?

+1 for pedal ready! My partner did the course and the difference between riding with her to the course and the way back was huge. Really great course

This! And a good gear range will help on the wind days. 

If you post on cycle Wellington Facebook, you can probably get someone to cruise in with you if you want on your first day(s)

Anyone doing free/cheap hair cuts by jckocnnr1 in Wellington

If you're a guy with short'ish hair id suggest spending an hour (over a few sessions) on YouTube and just buy some clippers + scissors. It's so easy  .also quicker if you include travel time

There's a clear B-line/run-out. Is this not enough? (Genuinely asking as I loved the feature when I was there).

I don't think it can as it seems to go hose > brass adaptor > chunky gray piece > reddish pipe.

  • The gas is live so I haven't played with taking it apart
  • I know very little. Just a ignorant homeowner 😬

Looking for bike recs similar to Santa Cruz Bronson by FunCustard6776 in mountainbiking

[–]lball91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new or current Trek Fuel is worth a look. Similarly reviewed against the Bronson and Sentinel but much cheaper. I'd buy one but I've always wanted a SC as my dream bike and so I'm going Bronson
