Cycling and my mobile

May 22, 2007 · 2 Comments

So I have got a new mobile a Nokia E65. I’ve downloaded the Nokia Sports Tracker software and this can then link up to my bluetooth GPS and record exactly where I’ve cycled and at what speed and altitude.

At the end of the ride I can then export the file to a Google Earth KML file and then see exactly where I’ve been.

So here is my 1st ride. Just click on the KML file and if you have Google Earth installed it will show you exactly where I cycled this morning.

Not as fast as I wanted as too much traffic and hundreds of traffic lights.

Relegation

May 7, 2007 · 2 Comments

Well, it finally happened tonight. Charlton are relegated from The Premiership.

It had been coming for a long time and if we are honest we deserve it. We have improved but were terrible for about 2/3rds of the season.

So onwards and upwards even if we do have to play bloody Palace again.

Rumours of a bid for the club on the BBC tonight. Had often thought before why none of the foreign investors had looked at Charlton.

Maybe there is a silver lining….
