Looks like you've identified two skill sets to improve. Learning to drive, and running a car are both expensive but give you loads of options you don't have. Bikes are great transport for one or two people, less good with nippers, but keep you fit and get you around the place. With a trailer they ca...

My work now has me on the M4/M5 two or three times a week near to Reading and I often spend time thinking how I would get home to Devon should things turn pear-shaped quickly. I haven't got the answer, I just know it would be a mammoth challenge in a SHTF scenario. It's mind-numbing thinking about ...

Oh this is on my mind at the moment. Used to be very very fit - triathlon and marathon fit. Then life changed, I went back to school, started commuting, met a girl, settled down - put on 2kg a year for 10 years. Now I'm 45, I have a 6 year old and a 1 year old, and I want to stay alive as long as I ...
