    The thing is, what kind of power meter works with a Sturmey Archer 3 speed?

    I won a race this evening, real life on the road 'cos I are hard core. Went to get the EPO's bike from the station, picked up some shopping and bought her a bunch of flowers and a bottle of plonk. Riding back and I get to a set of lights and a chap on a hybrid barges across the front of me and races off as the lights are changing. Caught him up quite easily and sat behind him with the Sturmey Archer freewheel clicking loudly as I coasted. This seemed to bother him so he sped up. So I cracked on and rode past with flowers and shopping in the basket, gave a cheery "evenin" as I clicked into 3rd and cruised away. Childish, but very satisfying.

    This is proper racing. Hat to that man.

    I remember years ago when I used to have a baby seat on the back of the Plug: banibina and I used to chase down club cyclists and as passing them I'd sit upright and say hello and she would do a little wave.

    We would cruise off into the distance laughing hysterically while humiliated club man would undoubtedly head off to buy some new Dura Red Zwift power meters so he could go faster.

    What did he have on it? Any norks?

    Annoyingly no, just remote desktop software, LDAP software (change his rights on the network) a TOR client (dark web crap) some torrenting software and he was using it as an FTP server


    Are those real words?

    Message from the dark side I hear.

    All real, basically very shifty character, doing things that will get you fired very quickly

    Anything on/in/around his desk worth stealing?

    I've just answered your post in that thread and cleared up your confusion.

    So there.

    Apologies on the back of a nice picture of TDNFNATN.
