    Have you decided which one you will eat first?

    Its obvious: the one he loves less.

    Or the fattier one.

    What's with the dead straight route lines on the map, too?

    How come there's no flybys? A privacy thing?

    Don't you only get one if there's a group and not for individuals?

    You should get it for anyone, so long as they are not private.

    Cool, I thought you only got it when you were at least other, never noticed it for solo activities.

    You'll get it for anyone on Strava (cycling or running/walking) who comes within 250 metres (?) of you when you're out (provided they are not private).

    You may be confusing it with the "Joe Soap rode with Wishbone Ash" type of message which is when people ride in a group or happen to be close to another cyclist and going in the same direction for a considerable period.

    Get Fit Fast is on C4 now and talking about cycling, weightloss and technique.

    Going cycling with my personal trainer mate is proving useful. That and a hrm have been my best tool, I've got rid of the Nov/Dec piggery and pintery and I piled it on so much my favourite suit didn't fit

    It was fairly mild. They went to the velodrome and spoke about engaging your core and improving your pedalling style. They said a cadence of over 90 is good for weight loss. I question this! I guess it depends on what cadence you're used to spinning.

    Thats not actually a motorway is it? Doesn't look wide enough or treated enough for that matter. He's looking like he's moving a bit better than the cars too :D

    i can't remember the last time i bought a sliced pan. are they good these days?

    Most modern breads are made by Chorleywood Bread Process, developed in UK in the 1960's. Before that bread had 4 ingredients, sourdough only 3 as it has natural yeasts

    Simple old school breads can be delicious and have decent nutritional value, most modern sliced pans/rolls barely qualify as food.

    If ever at beach in Tramore local bakery does a brilliant sourdough


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,520 ✭✭✭Alek


    I bake sourdough once/twice a week, my family would not touch anything from the store.

    Thanks for this, I always wondered how can you make such an easy recipe taste so artificial. I'll have a read.

    With plenty butter, starch, salt and texture of bread the food reward rev limiter must be in the red zone!

    Nice habit, common in Poland? I suppose you do keifir to?

    Jaysis, any time! I'm yet to force myself not to devour a huge slice with butter (or two!) when its freshly baked... around 11pm usually :D

    In the olden days, yes. Now mostly hipsters. But then what you get in shops is more palatable than here - similar to stuff you can get in Lidl.

    Not really, but started experimenting with souring vegetables recently. Kimchi-style, like sauerkraut, very trad for southeastern Europe. In Romania they sour everything, from apples through tomatoes to watermelons!

    https://www.dublininquirer.com/2018/02/28/event-can-the-cyclist-and-the-rest-of-dublin-city-ever-be-friends/
    On the evening of Wednesday, 21 March, from 6:30pm to about 8:30pm, Dublin Inquirer and Banter will present a panel discussion of these issues.

    Moderated by Banter’s Jim Carroll, the panel will include:

    ––Claudine Chen, cycling advocate and a member of the Dublin Cycling Campaign

    ––Jason Taylor, principal author of the Design Manual for Urban Roads and Streets, the government handbook on how to encourage sustainable travel in urban areas.

    ––A representative of the National Private Hire & Taxi Association

    I suspect the quality of these discussions hinge on the authority and independence of the chair. Jim Carroll's certainly got experience, so it could be an interesting night.

    The park beside my house is so much fun right now. Families, dogs and children out throwing snowballs, making snowpeople and tobogganing down the hills. I wonder how weird it would look if a 33 year old woman went out and started making a snowperson on her own...:pac:
