I like the simplicity but is there no gauge?

That wasn’t the intention, just sharing the excitement with some mates! I may find it difficult to be cool. Fuck it, who cares about cool

So why does it happen Pete? What do all those annoying cookies and tracker thingys do to stop devices/laptops/PC’s working properly?

I haven’t seen a pump that connects to your bike with a pressure gauge. Do they exist?

Still having to do the job anyway Pete? -
I did think that Then I thought NOCO should make a plug one in for their jumpstarter. One battery pack that does everything, jumpstarts, inflates tyres, charges your phone/laptop etc etc And maybe a connector that allows you to leave it plugged into the bike and auto charges only when the bikes running.

Fair enough. I like being able to turn up at airport parking do the tyres and leave, no wasting time checking the pressures and then having to go to garage to find air and when moving on everyday it’s a relief to not have to add finding air to the job list. I suppose I consider its ability to fully inflate a flat not its primary purpose and won’t be fussed when it conks out. Where as that other compressor is more an emergency tool. I don’t want to carry both.

When did the rules change that you can’t change your pic? What if you take a corker after you submitted one but its still in this month? Kinda takes some of the fun out of it if people can’t switch photos halfway through a race. The vote swapping and people changing their mind about what photo they want to put forward is where the humour is. And a ban for multiple bike submissions? Bit much. You can just say oi you only one photo, pick one. Got your special constable pants on a bit? -
Knew it wouldn’t be long before one of you sex obsessed loons moved onto that.

I have no doubt it will have a limited lifespan (all the reviews for these things say as much) but it gets used so I’ll know when it’s on its way out and for the convenience the £27 it price is worth it.

As someone who never bothered much with tyre pressure I learnt the hard way that it makes a difference to the stability on corners/roundabouts etc. particularly with a fully loaded bike. Very low tyre pressure feels like riding on jelly and properly inflated feels planted. Maybe you might not notice so much because all your off roading makes that unstable feeling second nature and your natural balance compensates, if they are too low I feel the difference. At speed it’s the difference between enjoying a corner and backing off because the bike doesn’t feel right. It used to be only when that happened I’d eventually think what’s going on with the bike it doesn’t feel… doh

Happy Sunday Peace and quiet finishes today as Mr Slowly is arriving I seem to have managed to spread stuff over both his desk and mine so might have to have a look at that We’re both excited which is mad after over 30 years together but it’s been two weeks which suddenly seems like a very long time.

Still have the inconvenience of finding and stopping to inflate. Thats the bit that gets very boring when you’re so tired after days n days in a row. Have a trusty old tyre pressure gauge, still love it but all it told me is ok you’re fine to go or worse you’re not so go find something else to do the inflating.

Garage tire inflators are also woefully inaccurate. Days and days on the road not in 4 star surroundings finding and paying for air becomes very tiresome.
