I did wonder about that as my GorPro has voice commands. Can't be that far off surely.

Re: Veloviewer map - explorer tiles
In other square hunting news, we went for a walk today and I collected 1 single new square. Probably the only square I will ever specifcally aim to get on a walk.

There’s a German(?) chap on the same amount, has claimed squares in the middle of 2 lakes I read about a few guys in Europe somewhere who were big square hunters that were all missing the same few squares in the middle of some lake.

Re: anyone run any chris king stuff?
Got a Chris King Headset. Used it maybe 5 or 6 years, never changed the bearing still as new as far as I'm concerned. Is it good value? I guess I'll tell you in another 5 years.

Re: The Acepac luggage I mentioned.
Got the tool roll today and seems good. Serving its purpose of keeping the tools tidy in the frame bag. Once I get a new smaller pump I'll be able to strap it to the seat post and leave the frame bag at home for shorter rides. Cheers Stu.

Re: Do I need an Exposure (6 pack Race or Diablo)
I really like my Diablo. I use it as a helmet light in conjunction with the Exposure Revo dynamo light on the bars. I also use it as a bar light for summer evening rides when I'm expecting to get back early enough not to need lights but have one with me just in case. Their customer service is vaguel...

Re: What are you listening to now?
It's like any genre there's a ton of niches within techno. Maybe you've just not found the niche you click into. Well, I can safely say that it's deep minimal techno that I like. Nothing to melodic or any big synths, I like the space between the sounds. :smile: I feel like I educated myself about d...

I really want the BB to happen as well. Although I have done shed loads of riding in the last year or so since I have been back at it, the BB300 would mark a return to off-road long distance riding.
