Yesterday was gig day. I shared a post originally stating that I was playing at North Ormesby Institute. Well as it happens that was not quite right. As it turned out we were actually booked to play North Ormesby WMC, a very different club two miles down the road. We only found this out thenContinue reading “Of confusing gigs and floods”

North Ormesby tonight
After a change in the billed event (which was originally the evil load of Cargo Fleet club) we’ve now been moved to North Ormesby. A much nicer load in and pretty much flat if I remember right, plus there’s food across the road so I can have a pizza if I want. Being back outContinue reading “North Ormesby tonight”
Strap yourself in… This is amusing!
So yesterday I suited up to take some outdoor pics of me in my full leather suit. I’ve become somewhat of a recluse just lately, especially since getting my own decent sized unit which I can store and wear all my gear in. Now the problem is that one of the woodlands I used toContinue reading “Strap yourself in… This is amusing!”
A ride.
I’m still playing around with the Fiido and getting a feel for the range on it. Today I had a ride from Old Moor up to Hoober and back. I also got some good photos! I was towing a simulated camping load to see how the foldie haired faired – and to be honest evenContinue reading “A ride.”
Over eleven years apart!
Back in 2010 I took these photos in my, at the time, newly assembled leather suit. Today, I recreated one of them and did a bit of fancy processing. This is the result.
New bling.
I’m not usually into blingy stuff, but I had to buy some new ear studs today and the multi pack from Claire’s Accessories had some in it. They’ll probably last a week the way I lose them…
Winter’s Coming
Ok, I’ll come clean. I’ve never actually watched much Game of Thrones. It’s all a bit too killy for me – I prefer my TV a little more gentle (unlike my music, as you well know, which I like to be aggressive and thoughtful). Those of you who have followed my blog for a numberContinue reading “Winter’s Coming”
Range Testing
Although I’ve not done it in one session yet, two long-ish sessions have allowed me to give a fairly decent range estimate on the D2S. It started flashing a single red light at about 24 miles, and shut off totally just shy of 27. So essentially it’ll ride a marathon. That’s a little under theContinue reading “Range Testing”
I’d have never thought this would happen.
Today for the first time ever, I did a “big shop” on the bike; coming back with quite a large number of items. The bike in question was the Fiido D2S and the trailer was my brand new Burley Travoy, which after fixing the minor manufacturing defect is now absolutely perfect. It easily coped withContinue reading “I’d have never thought this would happen.”
What’s with all the hate guys?
I sparked controversy a couple of days ago. I’ve had some pretty opinionated comments on Instagram from people who have since been removed from my circles. Why? I hear you ask? Well consider this photo. I’m out on my Fiido enjoying a ride. I’ve got the trailer hitched on the back and I’ve just beenContinue reading “What’s with all the hate guys?”
