panniers on the bike for some shopping, always seems silly driving 2.5mi to the shops when I'm fit and able. fucking heavy though, looking at e-bikes for the first time.
enjoying not panting when going up the stairs as well.

Norwich but it could be anywhere. Drivers have always just taken whatever space they need with little care for the consequences.

When student loan borrowers are in default, how does the Trump regime respond?
By garnishing their wages.
When billionaires see their wealth hit record highs, how does the Trump regime respond?
By extending their tax cuts.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

cars are a large, depreciating asset and exploding car prices / monthly payments is just taking money out of people's pockets.
frankly this is a direct route to making people poorer.

This is outrageous! “The average price of a new car broke the $50,000 barrier”, according to Kelley Blue Book. Why won’t car companies make cheaper cars? Why won’t cities build reliable mass transit so that cars are not needed?
Car Payments Now Average More Than $750 a Month. Enter the 100-Month Car Loan. — The Wall Street Journal
This fall, typical new car broke $50,000 barrier; ‘We don’t have $300 monthly payments any longer’

Having a discussion over on Farcebook after a post about passing cyclists safely, ever if they are 7 in a single line....
Another guy posted a screengrab from the old Surry RPU Twitter account.... I do miss those guys, wish they were here.

Decided to come back to the evil cycling lobby after deleting my account on the other platform. I've been cycling on and off, mostly time dependent as there's a fetish for long hours in the transport industry *sigh*.
I've got a new job that's close enough to cycle to, so that's cool.
