I've finally bitten the bullet and got a push cart (Bag Boy Nitron) but not sure what bag to put on it. I always walk so not looking for a bag that's optimised for a buggy.

Sun Mountain C130 looks too big, I've heard the OGIO Woode doesn't fit that well so I'm not sure what my options are and would appreciate any and all insight.

As we are going back to the office it's probably time to refresh the suit wardrobe. What do we think are the next level up suits from the likes of MJ Bale, Oxford etc and where can I find them in Sydney?

I'm talking the scenes that you can watch again and again because no one's done it better; Mozart defiling Salieri's march in Amadeus or Tommy being whacked in Goodfellas

I'll admit to being more of a hobbyist than a professional but I would love to know people's approaches to the challenge of making sure the characters in book reads have a consistent and identifiable sounding voice.

Do you identify all the characters individually and plan out who they are or do you let it come organically? Do you create a "voice reel" for each person so you have a reference when they need to speak and its been a while? What do you do?

Kudos to Heath Miller who kills this problem in "He Who Fights with Monsters" with each character having a unique voice and boo sucks to Wil Wheaton's reading of "The Martian" who uses his own voice for every single character, male or female.

I completed a ride on Zwift last night, the thoroughly enjoyable Road to Sky where I dragged my carcass up Alpe du Zwift. The ride was published to Strava including all the data (power, HR, cadence etc) and the segments of the route. All as expected.

About an hour late, I revisited the Strava page and noticed that all the segments had disappeared. I know that they were there and they were the official segments but don't know where they went.

I have clicked "Refresh Activity Achievements" and no dice.

Anyone know how I can get them back?

I went out on a long bike ride which I recorded on my 530. I have a heart rate strap to monitor my HR but it died almost immediately. Garmin now classifies my 150km ride at 200W NP (recorded by a powermeter) as a recovery ride with a tiny exercise load as the HR data is missing! Is there any way I can manually add in something that brings it up to where it should be?

It's completely thrown my Training Status off :-(

Maybe it's just me but it seems that in every marketing email, there's at least 1 instance of the product being advertised at a super low price and when you click on it, it's either the kids version and the adult version is significantly more expensive or it's for some unusual version and as soon as you select the version you want, the price suddenly increases without any previous indication that different versions are different prices. It's shady as hell.

I'm happier to pay more at my local shop - screw these guys.
