Oh my god! The professional trade mans excuse more aptly described as the English ( and Welsh) Disease. Never hear that from a Pole

Funny you say that!
I have another equation that determines how lazy pokes have become, relative to how long they’ve lived in this country and picked up our habits. You’re 56 right?

i am all for the physical work bonus BUT it should be on a sliding scale , playing with dewop power tools or even worse , twiddling a screwdriver should not count the same as wielding a mighty pickaxe and shovel all day

I work in accounts so using a computer all day, I’ll be at the top of this new physical list right guys?!
It should actually be skewed in your favour. Look at all the free fitness that people with physical jobs get. Whereas you have to train hard for all of yours.

Too right, I build houses, never wielded a trowel in my life
Hang on
Scurries off to justify man who builds houses, marking out should do it

Pokes?!? I hope that was a spelling mistake matey otherwise there’s gonna be a load of Polish builders with Sunday vodka hangovers making their way to Camden with pick axes to take down your home. Then you can find some English builders to rebuild it

ZHR Audax for anyone in 15 minutes ... It's not a race ... Honest 
Think I've found the next bike build frame https://surlybikes.com/bikes/disc_trucker/geometry Wide tyres, flat bar, single or hub drive Steel, yum yum
Did Stage 5 yesterday. Quite enjoyed it but the small numbers meant I was soloing a fair bit. Good workout anyway.
I was set up in the summer house at the top of the garden of the place we're staying. My good lady took the following pic of me and I never even noticed her there

Due to the combination of being ill and busy it looks like I’ve missed all the TDZ fun in January. I’m back training, albeit got some work to do but I will try and look in more often and join in the fun.
Quick question - thinking of buying some pedal power meters for the road bike, anyone running any that they would recommend.

I bought an Avio for Shimano crank arms. £150. probably the cheapest. I wanted just to have number to track my effort instead of relying on HR only. With comparing HR and a power number, I can see where fatigue is creeping up on me.
4iii, Stages, are other common crank based PM, then you're into pedal, hub or crankset PM
