I only ever went into the Bristol shop once and was very unimpressed, dirty bikes crammed in so that you can't really see them.

Unfortunately this means that there's even less choice of places to buy bikes from.

One of these log splitter is being delivered this morning.
I've got a whole load of wood on the drive that needs splitting ready to keep us warm this winter.

The sprocket lock ring is fitted on the outside if that ring, it had castlations on the outside and needs a special tool to undo it, which is only a couple of pounds on eBay.
Im pretty sure it has a left hand thread , and you'll need the non drive side crank arm fitted to contract you when you're ...

Your 13a plug will only give you 3kw/hr so 30% ~30kw ~ in 10 hours is about right. (Assuming 240v)

Wall chargers are on a 30a circuit so can charge at 7kw which is still mega slow compared to the Tesla charger that can pump it at 250kw or whatever it is.

Seat frame and seatpost?

A local came to buy some honey last week and tentatively asked about a custom order as wedding favours for her daughter's wedding guests.
We chatted about the options in jars and labels and she was pretty clear about what she had in mind, we settled on these Italian style jars, gold lids and custom ...

Evangelical you are mate

One perfect use example is what I had planned for Saturday, showing you around a new area and exploring which would have been purely up down up down up down where the focus is purely on the down bit, on a manual it would be tough to do the climb more than a few times but on an eeb you can save your ...

If i were going down that route, it'd be a Roller Team

I'm not suggesting that all ai tools couldn't take a stab at it, but different tools have their strengths, Google AI is effectively a Google search and that's exactly where is be putting questions like that.
Co pilot is there place where I'd be asking how to use excel or word features because it's ...

It’s not infallible. I just correct it when it’s clearly wrong and off we go again. Another simple use case I just used it for was to identify a bulb by showing it a picture. Huge time saver, especially in this case where it’s a non standard headlight.


But what about when it's not clearly ...

In work there is a big push to embrace AI and we were getting a briefing on Claude a couple of weeks ago.

The in house version of chat gpt was described as a switched on high school kid where Claude can be described as the PhD student, and those that know how to use AI properly really like it.

Pretty much anything that can go wrong in any other aircraft.
Think Nimrod and Concorde as just 2 examples of what happens when you have a fuel leak.

Airbus have just announced that they are still moving forward with hydrogen fuel cell and it sounds like they're dropping a pretty penny into it.

I'm a bit funny about rechargeable batteries and heat. ☀️☀️☀️


My BM is sat on the drive charging away merrily with the battery conditioning system keeping a decent temp, it isn't the hottest of hot days at 32 degrees (according to the bike on the way home that was happily charging it's ...

Going to be a big big few days i think. I've got Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun on the bike over FoD way for various lengths/time. The boy is finishing his coaching stuff so after this weekend will be flying solo as a coach for Katy. But that also means i've either got a lot of time to kill, or a lot of ...

I paid just under £500 for an arrow can for the wife's Honda Rebel. That bike was so quiet it was apologising for polluting, now it sounds like thunder with all of its 47bhp going straight through unsilenced

what a rollercoaster year 2026 is turning out to be. This is going to be a bit rambly, sorry.

we started off in early and mid spring with the colonies exploding in size, it was absolutely amazing to see the brood nests expand really quickly and loads of honey coming in nice and early.

Next up is ...

Three, my Whyte had never been derestricted.

Not that it matters much because I rarely use it because I prefer my manual.

That doesn't make sense to me that you would pay any tax on a monthly salary that is below the 12500÷12 figure

The way I understand it is that the tax in each pay packet is calculated separately, i.e. You don't use up all of your 12.5k tax free in the first few months of the year, you have a ...
