Really good turn out for the REAST Radio Expo being held this weekend. Congratulations to all the people involved with organising the event! #hamradio #icom
Nice afternoon for a ride - certainly a bit warmer than this morning's Parkrun. Apparently taking photos of your eBike near a bridge is a thing, so here's mine #ebikes #bafang #specialized #Hobart

mind blown.

Today's Annoyance:

A single 18650 LiPo costs $20 from Jaycar which I can put in a power bank to replace a chemically dead battery. I would prefer to repair to minimise ewaste, right?

Well I can get two of the actual powerbanks WITH batteries for $20!

Where is the incentive to reduce & reuse, when I can buy a replacement for half the price of the actual battery?

First #Parkrun today at #Bellerive. Just doing it as walks for now but was good to get out and have friends encouraging me to get some exercise. Hopefully the first of many.
One of the greatest life hacking tips I have ever received - keeping the "Cable Draw" sane by using zip-lock bags. Thanks to @[email protected] for mentioning it is a podcast a while ago :)
Having an e-bike conversion done has been truly a revelation and I am loving it. Being a larger person, having that "help" getting up hills or managing road rolling resistance is simply amazing.
I went for a ride today along the Pipeline Track on Mount Wellington, a 20km round trip. Seen here is the "wishing well" - part of the early water infrastructure of Hobart.
If you are looking for something to do today, why not come up to the top of the queens domain and visit the REAST Open day and learn about radio? Open until 2.30pm #hobart #amateurradio #hamradio #event #Tasmania
Ahh yes, you know its a Tasmanian summer when on the first night of December it snows #hobart
