    What a crazy day, went to Southport to check on the Open preperations, then all the way to Liverpool on the train. I rode the entire city, every single possible road, every crowded street, every dodgy backroad. I filmed the entirity of humanity, punk revival, gay bars, shopping centres...

    New Federal E-Bike Legislation March 2026

    Theres an awful lot of misinformation, misconceptions and purposeful ignorance. The only thing preventing complete lockdown is climate change. Its not a good look to be clamping down on zero emission ,personal low speed transport. Speed is relative, I have got used to 16mph, and tbh in such a...

    You can get cheap tickets, but its so convoluted, with multiple operators and overlapping constrictions that anyone deciding to do the right thing and ditch the car gives up after five minutes. Trains are only 2% of journeys in the UK and we invented the freakin things.. This sketch sums it up.

    Its bus and train, I can actually get to Chester on it, maybe a 30m radius overall. Im sure it wont last long, I use it to take the bike up the coast, but theres no way I would pay. Its 8.50 single to Southport and thats just 12 miles. I can easily get there and back twice in diesel in the van...

    Not when you have a free pass at 60 :) Only local, but yes its stupidly expensive unless you can plan ahead with incredible accuracy and gain god like knowledge of every single facet of savers, off peaks and singlecreturn glitches.

    Yes, Im saying we need a button we press to keep the car below 20, its ridiculous to be monitoring by endless off road glances. I had this argument with my mate Gary in Wales, hes like Chris just keep it at 20, is it that difficult. Im watching him drive in a 20 minutes later. Im like, Gary...

    Blanket 20mph speed limit, its going to happen. We need electronic help, its incredibly difficult to hold 20 mph when 24 is three points on your licence and 12 points is a years ban. Emma Watson got a years ban earlier this year. Ive got 6 points from doing 24 and 25 in Wales. Just the simple...

    Yeah, my only issues with EVs are battery safety, weight and charging when everyones got one. We are going to have to out the box it as Coffee says.

    Weve admitted to a 4X bigger grid requirement. Theyve already built a huge pylonway from the North sea megafarm. Its quite a thing to fly over. I love this pic, it shows the issue of turbine distancing

    Weve had a few, the rigid part is foam filled and they can plane without any tubes fitted at all. We were rescued off a Welsh Island while diving by a club members small rib, we had 12 people in it with all their bottles and weight belts. It was powering along through three foot waves with the...

    The lead time for transformers also seriously limits grid upgrades for renewables and electric vehicles. Its nice to see they are prioritising AI. Sam says they 'could' cure cancer. Wonder who gets paid for that.
