On Saturday, I spent the afternoon tinkering with the family’s bikes:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Bottle holders for the girls<\/li>\n
- A kickstand for one of the girls, since the other already had one pre-installed<\/li>\n
- New, lighter & shorter bar ends for my boy and myself<\/li>\n
- Towbars removed from Other Half’s & my bikes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This took me a little while.\u00a0 Just long enough for it to start raining<\/strong>. Pah!\u00a0 Nevertheless, I was already wearing my eco-ninja cycling gear, so I decided to set off regardless.\u00a0 I switched on the tracker<\/a>, zipped it into my pocket and off I went.<\/p>\n
It was only a swift pootle along the canalside in the fading light, following some of the route taken by Rooley<\/a> earlier that same day with his daughter<\/a>.\u00a0 With hindsight, it’s a shame I didn’t bump into them, that’d have been a nice surprise.\u00a0 For me anyway, maybe not them \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I’ve just got round to uploading the kml track that the computer recorded and I’m most impressed.\u00a0 The accuracy is far superior to what I had got used to with my old Vodafone V1615 (Kaiser; TyTnii, whatever they call it<\/em>) and I’ve had to do hardly any editing of spurious tracking points.<\/p>\n
So far, I’m very happy with the new phone and this is just one of the reasons.\u00a0 On the other hand, my Trusty Steed, she’s struggling.<\/p>\n
