Whats happening while we are home?

Well, I am getting out and about on the Viking E stepper, and that means a ride to the park each morning to start the day
Here it is in front of the main lake of east Park.
Sometimes I ride there in the evenings, and occasionally get a glimpse of the deer that stay hidden during the day when the park is busy.

And then there are some mods to do to the Brompton

Like improving the brakes, and these Swisstop Brake shoes have certainly done that!
The difference is dramatic and well worth the slight expense, but it did highlight another problem that has been bothering me.
Keeping the handlebars from moving when braking!
I  have had no luck just tightening the pinch screw  that is supposed to do this, so bought sone thread sealant and hopefully it will do the trick.
We shall soon find out whether it has worked.
I have also sent off for a spare Shwalbe Marathon Plus tyre which has a arrived, and just now an inner tube for it from Wiggle bikes.
