I have a shipment of Ramblas arriving Tuesday. https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?rambla

that does not mean that states don't have an interest in who is going to be elected POTUS or which way the brexit vote goes. States don't have to directly interfere with elections, but they can give money and data to local activists. Would you call that interference? Legally speaking, probably...

the idea of combining graphite with black phosphorus in the anode is a good one though. Phosphorus is dangerous, I am not sure that it can be adopted for cars and bikes. https://science.sciencemag.org/content/370/6513/192

Brexit has so far given us a dictatorial government headed by incompetent politicians and a chief of staff at No 10 who is more at home with weirdos and marginals than civil servants. They are so useless that they have not managed to negotiate a single substantial deal since. if there were...

Trump was answering some questions about how he could have caught the virus. He said that 'it may be at one of the big events at the White House, one learns that this virus is highly contagious.' in a normal tone, which is so different than his usual arrogant tone. Perhaps the virus changed him...

it is doable for a fit person. His Faro has thin hard Marathon tyres, rigid fork, straight bars meaning efficient with air resistance. It can easily be just as efficient as a Bosch bike, 6WH per mile, 120WH for 20 easy miles not much traffic lights, 40% of the battery's capacity, 3 bars out of...

you can reduce the weight a fair bit by removing the kickstand (about 700g) and replacing the crankset, saddle, seat post and pedals with lighter kits without breaking the bank.

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/sep/30/neanderthal-genes-increase-risk-of-serious-covid-19-study-claims If you have two neanderthal genes, you may be a goner if you catch Covid! A professor of Max Planck Institute explained on BBC News just now. That may explain why different regions of...

remdesivir costs £2,000 per patient per treatment for 5 days.

if Trump loses, Mike Pence will most certainly run in 2024. I reckon mos republican party members will like that. They'll let the Democrates sort out Covid first.

the problem is when about 1 in 4 got Covid, even only dormant, Covid can no longer be controlled with lockdown. That may be what we are seeing now.

brinkmanship. Bluff. we have to do deals with most if not all our commercial partners even if that takes years.

Would I volunteer to catch the virus for the sake of herd immunity? of course not.

lockdown works only if most people stop mixing. When you look at local lockdowns like Manchester, people pouring out of pubs at 10PM - go buy booze and continue partying somewhere else. To make lockdown work, you have to close non-essential venues like pubs, university residences and send...

government has to take decisions and can't pass that responsibility to the people. Take the issue of test, trace and isolate. If the contact tracer calls 5 people per case and tell them to isolate, each one may lose a lot more than £500 in income for staying at home for 2 weeks. Are they going...

My thanks to Ray and Richard who kindly replied to my ad. I will get back to you by email by next Monday. Best regards Tony

the cost of staffing them is much less than the cost of the chaos that our government is generating at the moment. So far, Covid costs tax payers about £200 billions plus the restrictions placed on people. Give a quarter of that to the Nightingale hospitals and the problem is reduced by more...

our weakest link is the limited resource of our NHS. Forget about the R numbers for a minute. Ministers should send Covid patients straight to the Nightingale hospitals and use their daily hospital admissions as a key indicator how to deal with the virus. These admissions should be analysed...
