Re: Heated waistcoat

There was a comparison test in ride a while back and it came to the conclusion that the cheap one wasn’t as good, but did make a difference. My wife and I have been using Keis waistcoats for years now and they’re a game changer in my opinion. They make biking much more comfortable when the temperatu...

Re: Don't get an electric car without watching this...

I’ve recently taken delivery of a Tesla Model 3 Long Range company car. A 385 mile round trip to Stevenage requires either two short charges of 20 minutes or one longer charge of 35 minutes. The charging cost is 9p/mile at a Tesla Supercharger (36p/kWh) and half that at my standard electricity rate ...

Re: Traffic

I use to have a TomTom Rider 550 and currently have a Garmin Zumo XT. Both receive traffic info via a smartphone, although the Garmin traffic info is rather hit and miss.

The TomTom is a much better sat nav in my experience, but suffers from screen condensation issues, hence the switch to the XT.

Re: A photo you took, today

Slightly late, but I celebrated Freedom Day on Monday night with the first ride since late October.

The Yorkshire Dales were beautiful as always 8-)

Re: Had the jab yet?

My wife and I had our first AZ jabs at Elland Road on Monday. I felt like I had a mild hangover for about 36 hours. She was completely unaffected.

The second jabs are booked for early June, so it’s worth the discomfort if we can get to Spain in September 👍

Re: How long does it take for the new coronavirus vaccine to take effect?

I had my AstraZeneca jab at Elland Road yesterday (prefer to go there to watch my beloved Leeds) and I’ve felt like I’ve had a mild hangover since. My wife had her jab at the same time and has had no after affects at all, not even a sore arm.
