Thanks for taking the time to read it, it was a hell of a ride. We really jumped in at the deep end for our first tour

Started in the north West of Scotland (trying to not doxx myself too hard) went to see a friend near Edinburgh and stayed for a few days, then to York, via a town between Birmingham and London to visit my girlfriends parents (she was riding the red bike (a Specialised Hardrock)) then through London to Kent to see my parents. Then after a stay in the most run down hostel I have ever seen we crossed at Dover to Calais and then cycled up the coast to Brugge, then to Amsterdam, then to Hamburg and finally Szczecin. We had planned to go all the way to Warsaw but we have run out of time, wanted to get the train but they are all fully booked so are taking the flixbus instead.

Writing all this out makes me think about making a better post about our entire journey

We left on the 3rd of June. So about 2 months doing between 35-50 miles a day.

It has my coat (which is black aswell) in the elastic net thingy to the top of it which makes it look bigger than it actually is. It was still quite heavy as it had allot of our food in it, made the bike handle like a cross channel ferry that is taking on water.

Metals are made of crystals, they usually defourm along the grain boundaries and fatigue cracks also grow along them. By eliminating those boundaries you reduce the chance for fatigue cracks and make the overall blade stronger.

Does it talk about fixes, I.e proportional representation, stv, etc?

His dad must be very upset that he is making pots and not tools.

Then how do people get to the jobs without any infrastructure

Also lots of other places (YouTube as an example) allow you to migrate your account indefinitely, over a decade after they were purchased.
