If you're on dry tarmac try taking the tyres up to close to 'max rated pressure' that may make it a bit more sprightly and don't forget if it gets a bit muddy you can always drop the pressure a bit for better grip

I've done that - to a point. The roads around here are so broken up by farm machinery, that tyre pressures are something of a compromise. Otherwise I'll shake myself - and the bike - to pieces.

I think that someone has been adding to your story.

Quite possibly... One of my characters has a tabby cat called Thornton.

And you can get 26" tires that run 100 p.s.i.

Can't you just leave it plugged in? A bit of a hassle, I know, but a better option than carting a Desktop PC around the house!

We are doing that but it is terribly slooooooooow ! By the time it has gone through the start up procedure you've forgotten what you went on for .

Anyways, I've split a bin of logs and i'm calling it quits.

It's ttotm and I'm not feeling terribly stellar, so I'm just going to curl up with a hot water bottle and a stash of chocolate. Tonight's yellow sticker venture to Tesco has been postponed till next weekend - I will go midweek to clear the shopping list.

That wouldn't be a battery/power problem, would it? 🤔

I'm in Hadleigh. Soon, I'll be heading for Harwich.

I've given up trying to find somewhere with a decent savings rate for the meagre amount of savings I've collated for all my years. So this evening I paid off most of the outstanding mortgage I have. By the end of year I'll own all of the house, rather than just some of it*

* It does mean no 'new' bikes though for a while

I've just got the fire going.

And it's time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me - a tin of gourmet for the girls, and pasta bake and a mince pie for me.
