Oh Wow Lizzie, You got a Brompton. I will be uploading a few E bike review videos shortly but whenever I go out to the shops or around town it is on my Brompton. I use it two or three times a week. I find it so good and don't have to worry about leaving it outside when I go shopping:) I hope your Husband will try the King Alfreds way. It is a challenge but a great adventure

Yes Bjorn, They are typical sight hounds but now with me they have soft eye's. I adore them:)

Yeah bloody depressing. People are so fecking lazy. CBA to pedal for themselves.

Hi Chris, I have a specific purpose to this folding bike and that is to combine it with journeys on public transport but I must agree a full sized bike does roll better

Thanks Anne, I do enjoy the sense of freedom a bicycle gives

I've tried handles bars up and pulling but for some daft reason never thought to try pushing. I'll give it a go

After having my deraileur fould up recently on my other big I have grown fonder of geared hubs

Sounds like your doing a great job looking after your 5 dogs Robert

@@WiltshireMan Yes Mate, they're all rescues with the oldest, now 14 flying here in the baggage hold from Moscow in 2009 and his crate being dumped on the luggage carousel in Sofia Airport with the suitcases. If there is reincarnation then, I want to come back as a well looked after dog. 😉

You are correct on both counts Lonnie:)

Thanks Alan sorry to hear about your dissability, yes I can understand where your coming from about the added expenses

@@WiltshireMan Such is life! You just have to (as the saying goes) 'cut your suit according to your cloth' I play with stoves and tents at home in the garden and we use a caravan (1991) so def not new!)on the most basic sites we can find (I need power for CPAP but a car battery runs it for a week). Miss camping in the wood though (envious)

Thanks Olly I am also reaping the rewards of a regular cycling habit, it does work wonders

Just a random bit of fun really Dave:) Back to normal soon

Thats a decent ride Doug

Haa beer wine and steak will put the shopping bill up Martin:)

5.19 seconds ...I'll have to practice

I think Pinehurst here in Swindon also has that nickname:)

We did have a Woolworths in Swindon but it was right in the town centre, I think what you saw was part of the Supermarine industrial estate. They used to build Spitfires and Hurricanes there during WW2

Out on a moto camp shortly

Thanks Keith JBJ :)

Yes definatly some shelfs empty now. Supply chain collapse

I'll try that next time Dave:)

I think I've used it half a dozen times as a camper Bry, it would be great to combine it with the folding bike but having the bikes and the motorcycles means the car rarely gets used now

Hi Tim Yes I know they have a persons head emblem above the doors. I think most of the smaller houses in Ferndale and Rodbourne were built to house workers as the town became more industrialised especially during the Victorian era

Hahaaa It is important to fart:) The Brooks saddles are very good:)

I've got to get a few parts for the MTB Peter but it is fixable

Hi Tom, I brought my Brompton which is a standard A line (The cheapest) online on the Brompton website. You have to setup an account with them. Currently they have no stock, I just checked. If you do buy an A line they are supplying them with the 44 tooth front chain ring, but to make the bike easier for the hills I swaped out the rear sprocket from a 14 to a 15 tooth. Makes the 3 gears more usable and 1st is quite a good climbing gear. You can get a 15 tooth rear sprocket from "Brilliant bikes" costs about £3. Cheap. The other thing I added was a rear rack and mudguard, a front mudguard, a carrier block and front bag.

@@WiltshireMan Thanks for info Sandy, Bromptons certainly a desirable machine and will keep a lookout, you've inspired me to get my full size Boardman crossover ready to ride again, bought some paddle handlebar grips as I suffer from lumps in my hands, mud guards will also be a must going into winter, the Boardmans a quick bike and look forward to riding again, it's been five years so my bums probably going to suffer, I'll be looking into getting a nice leather Brooks hopefully like the one I had many years back, I do miss my Claude Butler and Peugeot U09 Race bike, cycling many miles was certainly a joy of mine, getting out with the wife should be fun.. Atb Tom..

I only used the nav device to track the journey then it automatically uploads to strava for me, this was only a short journey across town, total distance about 7 miles

Hi Victor I prefer to cycle if I can. I have some hip pain now but only when I walk. Cycling doesn't cause me pain

Thanks for your reply Mr W. Hip pain and you’ve just done the King Alfred’s way. Your a strong man physically & mentally, long may your hip last Mr W..👍

Hi Keir, I am no longer paramotoring.

I just use a Gopro hero 7 Paul

@@WiltshireMan Oh wow, do you use a selfie stick on it as well??

Tomorrow I get the code. The Morse code

This was mid afternoon before the rush hour

The rest of the country is like this now. Everybody stays in. Recession on the way

@@harashigomari1690 I was wondering if that had something to do with it, mid afternoon here in Austria is normally busy. I tend to go just as they open at 7:40 ( another reason I have loved moving to Austria, no twenty four seven shopping and everything shut on Sundays bar the bakers in the morning and petrol stations. So nice to have a breather from commerce just like it was when I was a child in Devon in the 70’s. Fuel costs are rising like everywhere else but they just started to roll out the €500 bonus to help with costs. Not sure what it is there but it’s €500 per person, €250 for under eighteens, my friends who have two grown up children still at home will get €2000. I never really know what it’s like in reality there as I’m not sure whether to believe the media in the UK much these days, some say everything is fine, some say it’s going to be very hard. I hope everyone manages to get by. Feels like the sixties and especially the seventies there though when it was really tough.

Tried that but it's easier pulling it by the bag

No it's not very good though there are bike racks 100 meters away

That was a Garmin Edge explore Mark, it tracks all my journeys and uploads them to strava

@@WiltshireMan thanks Sandy. I will do my homework on those .

Yes like so many other places

They might do what I ask them then:)
