Scary rotor wear on the commuter. Bike shop installed a too narrow replacement rotor for the pad/caliper 😬

The quality of parking in Sheffield is astounding. It’s fine, we don’t need pedestrian crossings in the city centre.

I can no longer manage the kids now they’re 9 & 13yrs old, but bikes can be perfect family transport as well!

Chilly start to the day. My wife’s broken ankle and a need to do various logistics necessitated the car today, but at least I could record how bloody cold it was!

It’s also our last week with an ICE car!

I had a good, if very tiring, long weekend down at Excel giving project advice to prospective self-builders and delivering talks on #retrofit and low energy self-builds.

“It would have been so easy to dismiss this building as being unsaveable, but Sjolander Da Cruz has turned it into a delightful studio space that makes the most of the elegant existing steel structure.”
