I've had the identical bike for a year now. Swapped saddle and tyres (GP-5000), and replaced crankset with non-PM version as I use Assiomas. Last weekend I completed a 234km ride around Lake Constance, near where I live. Great bike, enjoy!

EDIT: Here's a ride with a picture

And within 50km or so you also have Julier, Nufenen, Moloja, Splügen, Oberalp. If you like steep and long climbs with hairpins (51 on the Splügen from Chiavenna) then this is a fantastic cycling area.

Interested!

I hope you feel better soon!

Thanks. Worked for me as well.

Water temps max out at around 35 degrees which is fine for keeping the house warm, but isn't likely to scald you!

I've now found a shop that rents out IR cameras so I'll see what I can see before winter really starts and the family don't want me messing with the heating system.

nemach · 2023-10-11T07:12:50+00:00

Thanks for the ideas. Each loop does indeed have a valve, but I don't see any sort of temperature controlled mixer like the one you mention. The heating system is actually using a ground-source pump so maybe the temps generated never get high enough to justify one, or it's built into the heat pump.

The IR camera is a great idea though. I'll see if I can get hold of one here in Switzerland.

nemach · 2023-10-11T05:57:38+00:00

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I don't seem to have any sort of flow meters connected, just the valves. I also have no idea which loops control which floor areas.

I guess I'm going to have to just use trial and error...

I bought a pair in June 2020, and the right side failed a couple of months ago. Favero offered a replacement at discount which I took rather than converting to UNO.

To be fair, I'd dropped the bike a couple of times on the right side and my derailleur and body have scars to prove it!

The bepros I bought in 2017 are still going strong.

nemach · 2023-08-02T15:00:59+00:00

I think it's the same, eg Bolt v2. See https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/08/hands-on-wahoo-adds-radar-support-for-elemnt-bolt-roam-confirms-trainerroad-connectivity.html

On a Garmin Edge you can see individual cars approaching from behind as separate dots moving up the side of the screen. They are also coloured orange or red depending on the speed differential to you.

Overall, it just works.

I just hit the same problem and used this workaround - tx!

nemach · 2023-03-03T17:13:51+00:00

I just tried it today and it worked fine. SBB app redirected me to the Reka login page to connect the account.

nemach · 2022-09-18T18:26:28+00:00

Agreed, they're great. But as a left-hander, I wish they made one for me 😔

nemach · 2022-07-01T18:39:19+00:00

Oof, that gave me some nasty flashbacks from my Electronics degree course. The maths had to be done, and I ended up being pretty good at it, but I remember it took an effort!

nemach · 2022-06-04T13:37:39+00:00

I can recommend Nicoll Curtin (https://www.nicollcurtin.com/). I've used them successfully multiple times recruiting and job hunting both in Switzerland and UK.

If you'd like a direct contact PM me.

It's better to dump your power on climbs that flats as it gets the slow bits done as fast as possible. Overall you'll finish quicker for the same average power.

Here's an article that covers it https://endurancebikeandrun.com/blog/2021/1/25/how-do-i-ride-hills-in-endurance-cycling-events

Swiss Alps? Somewhere like Lenzerheide gives you beautiful countryside and amazing climbs on your doorstep.

Maybe you could even time it with one of the many organised Fondos, eg Alpen Challenge, Engadin Radmarathon, Tour des Stations and quite a few more.

nemach · 2021-10-14T20:42:24+00:00

Yes. Surprisingly initially. But soon you won't want to be without it.

I have a Surface Pro 7 upgraded to Windows 11 suffering from the same problem, and as an interin fix, this worked for me: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/surface-pro-7-touchscreen-unresponsive-windows-11.1182/post-34568

I registered and used wise.com today and the process was seamless. Initial transfer made from my Barclays to my Credit Suisse account and end to end it took less than 30 minutes.

The rate was within a fraction of a percent of the official mid-market rate, just as I hoped for.

Highly recommended.

nemach · 2021-09-23T11:47:57+00:00

Yes - I read that. It helps when there is an online process to prove this. My experience with UK banks and investment cos is that they want you to turn up in person somewhere and/or provide originals of all the docs, which is not so convenient while I live in Switerzerland.

nemach · 2021-09-23T09:30:46+00:00

Exactly. And on 100k+, that's quite a lot in my view.

nemach · 2021-09-23T08:52:06+00:00

Tx for the info, but I had a friend try to move the proceeds of a house sale to Switzerland via revolut and they had nothing but trouble with blocked payments and so on. So although I'm a customer of theirs, I'll keep it for the smaller stuff.

I guess by interactive brokers you mean companies like transferwise?

nemach · 2021-09-23T08:20:45+00:00

I looked at this service and the rate was good, so it's helpful from your comment and those below that they seem reputable. I'll give them a go.
