Replied to a post on werd.io :

Interesting to see someone else dithering about how to present smaller, stream-like notes and longer articles. I have not resolved this to my own satisfaction, nor have I found a home I control for my newsletter. I have a domain, I just don't know how best to make use of it.

Top tip from a Park Tool video: use an old toe strap to keep centre-pull brakes close while you fasten cable. Worked a charm. We now can stop. Next: new chain and gear setting so we can go.

Thanks to Ton for the reminder about isochrones. I have been thinking along similar lines and may well try to adapt the isochrone mapping tool to my needs.
