A big change in May was to get the new map functionality online. I wanted to get that done before I went away on holiday, as it was when I was in Tenerife last year that I came up with the idea to add that to the site. Anyway, I managed to get it done … Read more
It’s been a crappy few weeks for me on the bike. I’ve been hit with Covid for, what, the fifth time now? Awful. I’ve learned my lessons though: don’t get back on the bike too early, or you end up off the bike for longer. I’ve been taking it very easy in terms of activity, … Read more
It has been about a month now since I last posted a site update, and there has been a whole lot of stuff happening behind the scenes during that time. Here’s the current Trello status: The ‘done’ column actually goes down quite a long way. A lot of the work has been on the Climb … Read more
