Speaking of glasses, do you get a new pint glass with every keg? How is the Lime ale?

It's nice, they do special releases when they do a new keg so I have a good selection of glasses.

@Randyberlin what do you like about the beta version?

@Randyberlin what do you like about the beta version?

It loaded faster and the changes to the stats display is better. The pairing seemed to recognize both Ant+ and Bluetooth instantly. Still a noticeable lack of fat bald spectators.
The gradient change in the bottom right corner gives a visual of the upcoming changes with a graph and the %.
On the video the other riders no longer block the view but show up as a small hexagon that doesn't distract from the video but lets you see where they are ahead of you.

I used Bluetooth instead of the Ant+ it Seems like it changes quicker so the lumps were a little harder, but I'm also beat up from my wife's chore weekend. She has me getting the infrastructure set up for her Christmas village. Plywood and Styrofoam and the electrical. luckily I'm off tomorrow for Alaska day. Its a holiday here because its where they transferred it from Russia. 7 million bucks works out to be Less than 2 cents an acre.

@Bored Man The video this week was hilarious. I loved the flashback! Have fun in the lake district.

Happy Alaska day

Bout time they sorted out the spectators Randy.. also, not near enough British flags on show. Also, glad I can wheel suck in video mode without hitting the potholes..

Could be available for handicap , if you don’t mind any chance of more details if I am allowed. No worries if not I will have a pop at a mountain somewhere

 

[shimceltic]

Bought some nice insulated bibs, didn't realise they are padless. Shall I just tough it out or can I buy an insert or similar.

 

[shimceltic]

Berty @keithaitch will invite you to the seperate chat for handicaps and give you a time. @Bored Man are you starting tomorrow?

Good weekend of Pro Racing on the box.
If young Alaphillipe comes out of this seasons late races with one thing learnt it is to stay alert.
First he didn't look left and Roglic steamed by, then he did look right and van der Poel almost steamed by and then, finally, he didn't look forwards and the rest is history already.

I have got to say that I wouldn't blame the Outrider like Quickstep did. Van Aert simply swung out of the slip stream of the motorcycle that was slowing and he should not have been slipstreaming and gave no warning to his followers. Van der Poel only just missed the bike and any crossed wheels could have taken them all down and sadly Alaphillipe was not paying attention and came a cropper.
