Last Sunday (27/10/2024) the Gorrick folks held their Halloween XC race at Highlands Farm (locally known as Area 51) near Tunnel Hill, Deepcut. We went over to watch the race (our son usually races the Gorrick series but he's now moved to the Forest of Dean area) to see some friends race. I...
I've been away for a few weeks and haven't been riding.... the weather hasn't helped either. Anyway, got out today to one of my local ride areas, known as Porridgepot. It's actually Area G2 in MOD parlance and there are firing ranges alongside.
The area is closed off for army training a lot...
Well, I definitely qualify for the "Old Fart" title....

Thanks for clarifying that. At the moment I'm riding with both my Kiox and Garmin 520 logging the ride. Typically, the Flow app records a higher average speed by around 1/1.5 mph than the Garmin and around a similar higher distance completed... this is for a typical 18/20 mile ride when loaded...
I put my tyre size into one of the on-line calculators to give a rough guide to the factory setting in my Flow app. I've got a Maxxi DHR 11 on the back... 27.5/2.4.... the calculator says circumference is 87.12 inches. If I put in the size as 27.5/2.6 it gives me the 88.5 inch number. I...
A little excursion into part of the army vehicle testing area at Bagshot Heath. Nice to have a bit drier day for it. The downside of the general area is that a lot of it is getting badly churned up by moto-x bikes riding there illegally as far as I know. All of this is very close to the M3...
Well, to answer my own question.... I did the update today (all works fine btw) and the app version has remained at 1.20.6 (1052) so, based on that, I don't know how one tracks their update status.
I've obviously got myself a bit confused over how Bosch release updates. I'm currently running 1.20.6 (1052) on Android and I'm being asked to install the update which is also called 1.20... so presumably once installed I'll see it called 1.20.??
Does that sound right?
When I went for a ride this morning and opened my FLOW app, was asked to install a new update. Anyone know anything about this? I'm currently running 1.20.6 (1052) on Android.
I haven't done the update as I don't know anything about it other than it seems to relate to Komoot and gpx routing.
I've just checked this on my Cube Stereo 160 and it's as you describe for the UK. Never knew that but I was aware of it after a small low speed tumble the other day and wondered if I'd moved something.
I use Shotcut for my editing/export. I have the option to select Youtube for the export and that selects libx264 for the codec.
If I was to ignore that selected codec I could, from the large number of other available codecs, select vp9_qsv. I don't know if that's the same as vp09. I just stick...
As a previous "Roadie" I've broken a couple of chains. The last one was just as I came over the brow of a category 3 climb in France. I'd just sat down after being up on the pedals. If it had "gone" whilst I was standing it could have been painful in the nether regions. Btw, I always carry a...
Not specifically answering your question but... I had a Calibre Bossnut with SX. I had similar problems and spent ages tinkering with it with limited success. In the end the rear derailleur exploded on me on a trail where forest debris had got caught in it... Long walk.
Bottom line is that I...
