    That’s big beanz. But I can see how it all adds up. A lot of the tech in that will be similar to bikes I suppose. Trying to make components, frame, wheels lighter and stronger.

    Also like you say, a lot of those chairs will have to be specific to the user, unlike a bike which is basically just S,M,L,XL. So you’re buying a bespoke piece of kit.

    are those chairs made of carbon ?

    Normal for active chairs are Aluminium and titanium though there are Carbon ones out there . Most chairs are not bespoke in the sense they are adjustable so this for example is a "cheap" rigid from the biggest brand

    and for that a basic measurement will be done for back height ,seat width wheel sizes which come in pre set amounts . You can then if required at later dates move the back up and down , adjust foot plate height , drop rear of seat down to increase seat incline etc .

    Monring.

    Nice little weekend lined up. Put the van on Gower last night so the Mrs and kids can have a few nights away (her bezzie has a static across the way).

    Today I will finish work at mid day, go home and play golf (win hopefully as it is at 1/4 final stage) , have a couple of beers and then nip out into Mumbles for a few more beers.

    Play golf again in the morning, go home and have a bit of a chill, and then go over to where they are for the afternoon & evening for beach and barbecue.

    I've actually got a Friday to myself, which is still sinking in tbh.

    I haven't, no.

    Not been down there for a while, I've got pictures of my middle son on my shoulders walking along to the waterfalls last time we went and he's 12 now so quite some time ago.

    Did drive down Glynneath bank Tuesday though, after circumnavigating the valleys as the M4 was closed in two places.

    Drove past Aberdare and such like, was keeping my eyes out for you and @aberdude !
