Happy birthday mate!

Happy birthday honey, looking forward to enjoying a long lunch today Love you xxx

If you are still local there is a big event on 2/17. I believe there are tickets available.

Thanks Fuzz. I’ve introduced myself using the link you provided. I am however having a difficult time navigating the site as a whole. It’s a bit all over the place

I had a Raleigh Technium in 1990 that was a sweet bike. All the full suspension stuff was way above my skill levels . I had friends who did downhill , one of them broke bones and I was never into that sort of thing. This is for getting out and light duty low impact cardio. And . I will look cool, in my mind 🤣

If you could trade one box from your collection today, what would it be? What would you trade it for/replace it with? Think of it as a great opportunity to swap out something that isn't "floating your boat" for something you haven't tried or better still, something you know you will enjoy

Yes. Up Down in Old Town has the entire lineup. Great shop if you haven’t been. I am a regular there.

I have a Los Angeles cigar loving mate currently riding his bicycle from Melbourne to Brisbane 1800 km 1100 miles in the peak of Australian Summer. Last heard he was in Newcastle. He is due to hit the Czar deck in March....sometime. He was struggling

I saw an instagram feed come through overnight from a Cigar Journal writer saying that he heard the Habanos Festival will be cancelled this morning (our time). I have seen no confirmation today. I have a busy day ahead of me but if members come across any information.....post it up

Hang on a few weeks and I will bring that up to speed. If I don't then kick my arse as a reminder We have added two new people February 1 to the FOH/BR scene that will manage content (video/pics/updates) etc. Well, they will manage myself and Hamlet. Over the Christmas break I realised that we could use some help in these areas and put the fix in motion.

Welcome along

@JohnnyO Baggage revenue helps. Three 70-pound bags per passenger adds up. But that alone does not make a route “very profitable.” These flights still need to be very full. Cuba is not a low-cost operating environment, and elevated airport and handling fees compared to other Caribbean airports tighten margins further. I took a look at American’s load factors leaving Miami for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Thursday averaged 67%, Friday averaged 67%, and Saturday averaged 43%. I also checked Sunday’s returns to Miami, which averaged 58%. Those are not strong numbers. Also, US carriers do not have some protected contract guaranteeing the right to serve Cuba. They operate under DOT authority and OFAC approval. That authority can be modified or revoked as US policy changes, just as was done in 2019. American’s lawyers can help manage compliance, but they cannot override federal authority.

I have a roadbike that I have used for a one and done Ironman race. The bike was a grind for me, I have not sat on that tiny little seat since. My arse thanks me for it. I am in the process of buying a mountain bike for summers in Colorado now that my son is old enough do it with me. Prices are absolutely insane! I got him a mountain bike for his 7th birthday the thing was $1200. It’s nice but man the last time I bought a mountain bike in probably 2005 or so prices and technology were definitely a level below where they are today. Growing up my buddies and I used to race BMX. My best friend started collecting vintage BMX and freestyle bikes and it’s basically a collection of all the bikes you wanted as a kid…a Hutch Trickstar, GT Pro Performer, PK Ripper, Thruster, a few Cycle Craft. They definitely bring back fond memories.

Welcome to FOH!

Just means I will have to (a) wait; and (b) smoke more cigars. Challenge accepted.

I think 7 years or so of consistently using it. Sorry to disappoint, but I did nothing special or out of the ordinary.
