I’ve got a Ring RTC2000 hand held unit. Been fine every time I’ve used it. Took the tyres from 30 to 36, takes a bit of time but I usually just hook it up and leave it, then come back a few minutes later and swap it to the next tyre. It did all 8 tyres for top ups on a single charge, it would...

Well, the deed is done. Ordered an i5 M60 Touring in M Carbon Black with Ultimate pack and tow bar (for the mountain bikes!). Just waiting for a delivery date. Finally joining the BMW clan!

Yeah, some great deals there, i got a couple of pair from Evans earlier this year too for a bargain price. Managed to get myself a new Fox Speedframe Pro helmet for £80, been after one for a while, also finally took the plunge and got a full face Proframe RS and Fox VUE goggles for 50% off list...

It'll be a lease from work, so any option (apart from the ultimate package mentioned above which is factored into the cost already at an extra £75 a month over the std car) is split over 36 payments which is why i'd prefer to stay standard for most things. I do like the brown but think the black...

Thanks folks. I'll go take a look at the weekend. I fancied a red interior, however it's not even a paid for option on the i5, it's either white/brown/black verganza, black verganza with alcantara as a std option, or black/white/brown merino leather as a paid option. I'm also out at least...

So, what’s a good colour combination for interior/exterior. I like the Brooklyn Grey and Phytonic blue, but not sure what vegan leather (also not sure how they get away with killing and skinning vegans, but it must be legal….? :D) colour would match, maybe brown? I’m uselsss with all that as...

First time posting in the BMW thread! Been looking at these also. On one of the NHS schemes the saloon i5 M60 was on special offer (white only) for £483 nett (yes, i understand there's other deductions going on) or £530 (now £598 since this morning!) if you wanted to pick a specific colour from...

Went to the England Vs Wales game, corporate hospitality! Great experience, food and drink all top notch. Only small complaint was the size of the seats, they don't half pack you in! The first half was pretty poor and the crowd didn't really have much to cheer about, but the second half got the...

We had this with kids living at home with a house on the entrance to our estate. Each house gets 2 spaces, usually a double drive or drive + garage. Mum, Dad and 3 kids (1 son, 2 daughters) all had cars. The kids all had partners who all had cars. The dad, the son and both daughters partners...

Just back from a weekend in North Wales, a hungover spin round Coed Y Brenin red route, Dragons Back. Followed by a bucket list ride doing Snowdon, up the Llanberis path and back down the Rangers Path and Telegraph Alley. Great weekend with a few beers and lots of laughs!

New saddle for tomorrows ride, finally getting rid of the fizik that came on my Orbea Rise, horrible saddle. Got a specialized bridge comp with mimic, feels nice on a spin around the block! Been a bit of an update month for the bike, just put some Raceface 35mm rise bars and shorter stem on...

Remember working on the Sun Sparcs, IBM and ICL kit. Then those new fangled Compaq kids came in with their 8u 100kg+ “mini” servers that were rack mounted, they’ll never catch on!…. :D

I usually use the meet and greet parking. It’s slightly more expensive but you drive up to the front of the airport, they scan your car to get images to cover themselves/yourself, then you walk into the main building and drop your keys off. Then when you return your car is waiting for you...

If you fancy a try on trails outside of a bike park there’s Dales Bike Centre with some really good stuff around them including Ard Rock stages, they can point/give directions to get to lost and it’s pretty easy to find.

Back on the proper bike at the moment. Going down a rocky chute on my Orbea Rise a few weeks ago, a rock took out some spokes and essentially the wheel shook itself to pieces, the wheel hooked the derailleur and pulled backwards and the hanger split the seat stay and damaged the chain stay...

First round of the year yesterday, last played in November! Steady away 91, happy to just get under 100! :D Lost most shots on chipping around the green, driver and irons working well (252yd carry on the last, I know that as it was nearly fully plugged!), but definitely lost the touch around the...

I still get results from my old club, still got friends who play there. A lad won the monthly stableford (Division 3) with 53 points….. My mates have played with him and say he is new to the game, usually scoring mid/high 20 points off 28, every dog has his day! :D The following day one of the...

If you plan on putting pictures up make sure there’s no location data in them and set your security settings on Facebook appropriately. Also, when meeting someone I’d advise meeting in a public place like a supermarket car park and not your house so they don’t know where your next potentially...

Played it lots of times as a mate was a member for years. It was bizarre at times, if the wind doesn’t blow the old course is like a pitch and putt (about 2 times out of 20!), if it’s blowing it’s an absolute nightmare! :D Lovely clubhouse and food was good too.

I started out with a Boardman Pro 29'er Hardtail from Halfords 4 years ago. Did all sorts of outings on it, Peak District, Lake District and took it all in it's stride. Can also have a look at...
