    Today was a nice day for a ride, bright sun and dry. Started off chilly, but got warmer and there was still a nice bit of warmth in the Sun. A bit windy though and, sometimes quite blustery. Had to use Turbo a couple times going up some hills into the wind. Some pictures of Stowe; The...

    Going to document my weight loss

    Last year I lost 35kg (77lb / 5.5 stone) through a mixture of a low carb diet and more e-bike cycling. Since then, I’ve put about 13kg (28lb / 2 stone) back on, so have been back on the low carb diet and more e-bike cycling again. Pleased to report that it’s working and have lost about 8kg...

    What a change this week. Our last ride was on Monday around Oxford and the weather was lovely that we were wearing tee shirts. Didn’t go out on Tuesday as the bike was at the LBS for a service. The only thing that needed doing was putting some more air in the front forks. Wednesday, I did a...

    There are over 200 miles of Redways and some of these are now over 50 years old. Unfortunately, most councils are strapped for cash, so they cut back on areas that they don’t consider as a priority. A lot of roads have many potholes and cracks which are not getting repaired, so cycle paths are...

    Android Based GPS Trackers?

    Another consideration is to get Apple Air Tags, an older, cheap and suitable iPhone with the cheapest SIM card and just use it for tracking the bikes. Both Mrs DG and myself have iPhones and use Air Tags on a number of items. These do work well and also notify us if the battery is low on the...
