Frosty Posted December 8, 2021 Share Hit a new max power today… Naturally Garmin proposed a new FTP. I might (virtually) accept. Anyway, the virtual sights were quite nice. Good to (virtually) get out of town. Charles71, fanievb, KingZA and 2 others 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF is up with this weather this year? I blame Covid. ChrisF and TheoG 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold engine brake and pull the cord, most I've had to pull was 3 times. Did just over 1500sqm with 850ml of petrol.

I no longer do it. Just stand in the road till it is safe. Just my 2 cents for the day. Ive only found a couple of tortoises on my rides...if they are near a road and/or my tortoise eating brothers then I move them... Otherwise happy travels!

I do think though when they are in harms way, like on a major road etc, its better to have a scrambled GPS than a scrambled insides 🙂 Some info from the interwebs: Edited December 9, 2021 by Hendel Clase DJR, herrowpreeze, TheoG and 3 others 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbr Posted December 9, 2021 Share Also heard it hurts them to be picked up especially from the top, maybe less so if you lift it from underneath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
