Been watching The Rookie. Pretty decent.

A friend told me of a tube he kept on patching... it ended up with 28 patches!

Longer piece of string An actual torque wrench would be better and easier, this looks like it needs an extra pair of hands to work well.

Has anyone tried this improvised solution? https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/torque-wrench-luggage-scale-d_1909.html

Having the right shoes makes a difference. My shin muscles used to get sore, then with a new pair of shoes more suitable to me they were fine.

Watched 'The art of racing in the rain'. The dog's commentary was funny! A few sad parts as well.

Oops A wheel fell off an Air Canada plane during takeoff: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/01/05/americas/air-canada-plane-wheel-falls-off-trnd/index.html This could work (I think it was just an advertisement):

How accurate was Ford v Ferrari? http://www.historyvshollywood.com/reelfaces/ford-v-ferrari/ The movie was entertaining, but differs in several areas from what actually happened. They didn't just build a car and "win" Le Mans on their first try.

Someone took this photo in PE's Baakens valley: * I think he / she has the right of way

Thanks for the info * that kinda sucks, eish! You'd think that the factory that basically supplies SA with hardboard would be doing pretty well. ** https://estcourtnews.co.za/68669/official-statement-evowood-formerly-masonite-placed-voluntary-liquidation/

A question for the woodworkers - it seems like it's difficult to get the old fashioned brown hardboard these days. Or at least I couldn't get at Builders. Any ideas why and suggestions of other places to try?

Cheap tubes suck! I bought some 26" tubes and they seem too small for the tyre, like there is a gap between the sidewall and the tube. I have to inflate it very hard to get it expanded properly. They are supposed to be 1.9 - 2.25. Using a 27.5 (2.1 - 2.4) tube seems to work pretty well and it's also not as stretched out. So... buy better quality tubes that fit the tyre properly. * I'd go tubeless but i'm not sure that the tyres I have are going to work, but after pinch flats and punctures this week I'm might as well give it a try.

It's on Netflix.

There's a Fast & Furious animated series 'Spy Racers'. Watched the first episode, but I think it's meant for kids.

A quick recap of season 1 (contains spoilers):

@Capricorn: Check this special edition magazine out: https://www.denofgeek.com/us/movies/284795/den-of-geek-partners-with-netflix-for-lost-in-space-issue * It's quite a large pdf, about 74mb

I had a late start to LIS, only started watching it recently and finished season 1 yesterday. Glad I don't have to wait long for S2 - it looks like it lots of danger!

@Honkdonk You can have a look at services like Tranferwise.
