Did my first Parkrun yesterday. Quite enjoyed it although there were lots of Strava types who appear to take it way too seriously.

Do cyclists need to give cars 1.5m when they're doing the passing? Driving around London doing 20 mph once in a blue moon I'm usually the one minding my own business when I get a cyclist throwing one down the inside or outside or just travelling at the same speed as me beside me...

Mild hybrid too, who knew?

Mates Mum had hers nicked, was used in a robbery.

First car I knew to have a digital speedo. Very Knight Rider

I had an Manual A5 FWD a few years back and it was all but undrivable in slippery conditions - best of luck Did you have a 2.7, or was that someone else? When the tc and esp kicked in did it flash up "should have bought a quattro" on the dash? I had the 3.0 (it’s still outside :lol: ). I ...
