Just sent everything i needed to over to the mortgage advisor, having not logged in to my banking on an actual computer for the better part of 3 years that posed quite a task.
I assume that was the most difficult of my hurdles to clear right?

My gut feeling (having not really ridden eitehr HT or FS ebikes) is that if you're going to be riding off road, with the extra weight of the bike a hardtail would struggle more and the extra compliance of a full sus will far more easily allow you to make full use of the drive and traction that the bike will provide.
It’s more getting to and from, I ride a hard tail now and pretty happy with it

I think it's going to be a very long time before the weight issue rectifies its self.
bear in mind a decent "normal" MTB is like 15kg, until they invent a battery that weighs nothing its going to be 20-25kg as the norm.Most flagship full sus E bikes this year are actually heavier than previous years due to the battery getting bigger, 625kwh has been on most bikes for some time and Norco just dropped a 900kwh which is 4.57kg on its own!
I'm debating a hardtail, as it'll be more efficient should I want to put some longer miles down, but the only thing stopping me is the price tag.

First meeting with the mortgage advisor..

Why did Jack sound not English after his UCI win interview?
(again not angry, we really need the question thread back)

I've ridden them in the past, but today I commuted home on one, around 16miles, which took just over an hour, and had a great ride on the way home, took the scenic route and had a blast.
I'm very much not into my climbing, years of smoking at university and a shit leg means that almost any hill I come across will result in legs feeling like they will explode so I'm 100% pro E bike.What about you chappies?

E bikes will require some sort of license and likely be pumped up to 25mph rather than the 16.6mph they currently are considering the rest of the word is currently at 20mph

It weird how nobody has posted the UCI world cup video, not really angry, but we dont have a middle ground

Those are great. I used to work for a designer brand who bought a lot of this sort of thing and this looks just as good as the stuff we were selling for £150+.
How did you finish the edges?Thanks mate,
The edges are sanded down with 240 - 2000 grit then a bit of wax and leather finish, then I creep up to 10,000 grit as well as a burnish stick (slippy wood) by comparison to some other guys my edges fall way short the guy I've linked to below is beautiful

Ive got my 2nd Pfizer on the 17th. Surprised at how many of you have had your seconds already, you must be a lot older than i thought haha.
Covid's hitting the local schools pretty hard (Leeds) so it feels like its only a matter of time before we all get it.
The whole football thing just feels like a piss take really. All the videos on social media of pubs rammed full of people cheering and hugging yet you're limited to 6 people at home.
i heard they were doing the whole rock up and get a jab thing in a village near mine, so i jumped right on that as I have a holiday planned a few days before my second jab was due, which would have been shit

Hot tub works
Took 3.5 hours to heat, then we spent 3 hours in it last night. Eyes, nose and skin don't get battered like normal which is a bonus. The water coming out of the heater coil was boiling (!) so that should kill any nasties. It even maintained 36 degrees for over an hour after we'd stopped feeding the fire!
Next upgrade: a better, more insulated lid, in two halves so we can keep it partly covered for winter use.
i need to a see a full shot that
