Peregrine Perfect

Posted at 4:19 pm, Wednesday December 29, 2010 by rich

It’s amazing how a few little changes can make a big improvement to a bike. Since I last rode the Singular Peregrine it’s gained a Selle San Marco Rolls saddle, and the bar and shifter positions have been tweaked slightly. It feels like a completely new bike now.

I was a last-minute stand-in for tonight, making use of a spare ticket. It was an interesting evening of christmas related medieval and early folk music, all performed acoustically.

#73 – Metropolis

I’ve not seen this for possibly 20 years or so, and never in a version this long. The Blu-ray look superb for a film that’s now 83 years old.

Canon Professional Services have seen fit to let me renew my Gold CPS membership for another 12 months. Good job qualification is only based on how much you’ve spent on photography kit and not talent, or I’d really be in trouble.
