I have two months to go before my next triathlon. So that’s focussing my attention! I wouldn’t say I am triathlon fit right now but I hope to be quite a lot fitter, come the starting gun.
And so I’m taking this opportunity to spend a little bit less time on the water, a bit more time in it, and a lot more time on Sexyloops. We have a bunch of great things happening, not least of which will be the flyline database I talked about a few weeks ago. This should be up and running later this week.
This will be a database of as many lines as we can measure, because as you may have realised, not all of them are what they say on the box - and the only way to deal with this is to know their true weight!
There are some excellent conversations of the Board at the moment, not least casting two lines at once, which is a study of two different line tapers https://www.sexyloops.co.uk/theboard/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2989
Should everyone who goes anywhere near water be made to wear a lifejacket? https://www.sexyloops.co.uk/theboard/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2995
Where do you draw the line? Can’t swim? On a moving boat? Going fishing? Feeding ducks from a distance of 30 metres? Washing your hands in the sink? What do you think.
Some nice discussions on loop morph https://www.sexyloops.co.uk/theboard/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2982 (in fact there are about five threads on loop morph at the moment!).
I can see there are some more discussions that I have to read now in order to catch up but first I’m going out training! Next month I’m flat out with guests and so I’m making hay while the sun shines.
Have a superb week :)
Cheers, Paul
