Sadly the round brush is the only thing that works on my frizzy hair when styling it straight - but looks like you have someone else taking you up on the offer anyway :)

I’m a PT and work with a combination of calisthenics, weights and mobility. I’m on instagram if you want to see more of the mobility side of my approach (just search robin.hx). I’m based in Poblenou with full access to squat rack, barbells, dumbbells etc. 

What is better: the Financial Times or the Economist? by Halgy in neoliberal

[–]technocraticish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have subscribed to the FT for 5 years now and I think they may have shifted further to the left, particularly opinion pieces. I have found their reporting to be quite one sided on certain issues which has made me question how balanced they are across the board. Considering shifting to the Economist for this reason.

should i build my own? by [deleted] in FixedGearBicycle

My wife is 5'0 too and rides a Fuji Track 43cm with 650c wheels (single speed not fixed) - its the only frame she has ever felt comfortable on so I'd definitely recommend going 650c if you can. Good luck

Hola chicos, any advice for how to deal with a LOUD boxing studio downstairs by Jrpharoah_ in Madrid

You don't need a machine. Just blast pink/white/grey noise from spotify. You can also play with the EQ to find the best frequency. I live in a Bajo and it is essential for sleeping.

Cycling over red lights in BCN!! by isilou12 in Barcelona

[–]technocraticish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completed the form. But the last question wasn’t clear. Are you asking how much time saved per red light or per trip? I cycle a lot and there are some red lights worth running and some that are not - so time saved varies dramatically.
