I don't see any on my 'Following' or 'Popular with Friends' feeds as I don't follow Americans. I never look at the default 'Discover' feed any more

The factor no-one ever mentions is people without jobs now being forced to take low-paid unskilled work immediately rather than being given time to retrain or even spend a few more weeks looking full-time for a better-paid job they're already qualified for

It appears the British Horse Society had no problem with the name 'Walk Wheel Cycle Trust' when they wrote this guest post back in 2021...

...unless WWCT replaced their name in everything on their website even if it wasn't written by them? Surely not!
Walk Wheel Cycle Trust and The British Horse Society: Making paths for everyone
The British Horse Society is supporting Walk Wheel Cycle Trust to create a UK-wide network of traffic-free paths accessible to all, connecting cities, towns and countryside.

Is it unusual for the land to be several degrees warmer than normal at the same time as the surrounding sea is over 9 degrees colder?

That passage was still in Richard's New Bicycle Book (1990). It's 3 pages long – this is the climax, though not the end:
With a big dog you are fighting for your life. If you are weaponless try to tangle the dog up in your bike. Use your legs to kick at the dog's stomach and genitals. If you have got a pump or stick and the dog is moving too fast for you to ram it down its throat, hold the pump by both ends and offer it up to the dog horizontally. Often the dog will bite the stick/pump and hang on hard. Immediately lift the dog up and deliver a very solid kick to the genitals. If you have no pump or stick, throw rocks, or use a heavy rock as a club. If worst comes to worst, and you are forced down to the ground by the dog, ram your entire arm down its throat. He will choke and die. Better your arm than your throat.

You still have more followers than people you're following. Maybe you could try following some more people and they might follow you back? Although I followed you a couple of weeks ago and it appears you didn't 🤷‍♂️

Clever battery concealment, though 187 Wh battery capacity could be a bit limiting? Only slightly over half that of Electric G

Power comes from an external 187 Wh battery, housed on the rear rack in that removable leather-style case, and wired neatly to preserve the clean look.
