Your predictions for the New Year.

[Cycleops]

Here's mine:

@Dave7 will go on a strict diet.

CycleChat will be bought by Elon Musk for £5bn and become the premier social media platform.
All members of Guru status and above will receive a top model Tesla FoC.

Shimano Di2 will become available for the bargain price of £99.

Meanwhile down here the Police have threatened loud mouthed jive arse pastors with prosecution if they predict anything bad happens to people:

I'll win the lottery and retire.

 

[Paulus]

Much the same s**t as last year.

 

[Grant Fondo]

The nBike will be invented. A tiny nuclear powered motor makes eBikes redundant, but still needs topping up every 5000 years.
Elon Musk is the first person to ride one on Mars, but unfortunately gets a flat at 375 mph.
The rest will be history.

My prediction is to try and survive another year at least and carry on enjoying my cycling along with cycle chat

2023...

I would save this is rather tame & it will get worse

I predict that Trump's demented rants will feature even more capital letters and exclamation marks before he stamps his foot so hard that he disappears through a hole in the floor.

 

[Brandane]

Nuclear war and the end of the human race.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

It’ll start on Sunday

Russia will have to start advertising for volunteer oligarchs because the country is rapidly running out of them due to the number tripping and falling from hotel balconies/downstairs, having heart attacks/strokes/[insert name of previously unsuspected terminal health condition here], hanging themselves in remarkably unconvincing fashion, cutting their wrists, or accidentally drinking 6.5 litres of vodka and knocking back enough pills to kill a bull elephant...

Late kick-off?

 

[Arrowfoot]

A very difficult year for all - rising interest and prices for essentials , employment opportunities, medical attention and sense of political direction for the UK. Both political parties will struggle within themselves to set vision.

Some sectors will gain such as private insurance, private medical facilities as loss of faith in NHS will be pronounced. Private and independent schools will prosper as parents are always aspirational even in hard times, good teachers will leave the public sectors for private to focus on their passion.

Those companies that have depended on cheap EU labour for decades will falter. Those drinking from the diversity fountain career wise will be focus of attention for the wrong reasons.

You got to give credit to the highly revered and respected Indian Police Force. Shortly after arrival at both the scenes 3 days apart determined that is no criminality involved in either of the oligarchs’ death. Its no surprise that Zelensky approached the Indians to negotiate with Russia rather than the EU.

They will start recruiting oligarchs from Russian prisons with the promise of a Presidential Pardon if they survive Oligarch Service.
