    Flights - what time of day?

    That sounds very civilised - no need to get up early on the departure day, and you arrive back in time for a good night's sleep :D

    Does anyone have any tips for sights, architecture or trains in Tbilisi? Not looking to go too far out of town but could be persuaded.

    Bus stops on country roads that have no visible markings that they exist

    Bus stops on country roads that have no visible markings that they exist

    Bus stops on country roads that have no visible markings that they exist

    VeloViewer - anyone else use it?

    Paid Veloviewer does give you a lifetime map - I think on the free preview it limits it to using your most recent X rides. I can DM you a screenshot. I mainly use it for the tile bagging function - basically it divides the world into 1 mile squares and it's fun to get new ones as you travel!

    If you do a lot of motorway driving as opposed to town driving, your miles / kWh will go down slightly and you will be paying supercharger prices if you can't always get home on the charge you started with. However these users would mostly be people travelling for work so it's less of a personal...

    UK switching to electric vehicles discussion

    Apart from motorway services which cater for long journeys, supermarkets are probably the sweet spot for public charging in terms of cost, charging speed and productive use of the charging time. In the last couple of weeks I've been to two Morrisons which have blue MFG chargers in the car park...
