Velociraptor Sep 2022 12:29pm, 6 Sep 2022 59,636 posts	0 Velociraptor The Medical Society at my university got banned from Gleneagles. Nothing to do with me, I couldn't be doing with other medical students. And also didn't have the money for Medical Society balls.

I think the VT dentists (equivalent of pre registration) got banned from Slaley Hall in Northumbria after a car was driven across the golf course. I’m sure Leeds dental students were also banned from various places, definitely Headingley Stadium, though I think we were out priced anyway after their upgrade.
57.5 Degrees of Pain Sep 2022 2:33pm, 7 Sep 2022 9,695 posts	0 57.5 Degrees of Pain Nice spot on Lake Windermere to celebrate getting past half way. Looks familiar too as I ran past in the opposite direction virtually in mid-April.
tipsku Sep 2022 4:39pm, 7 Sep 2022 656 posts	0 tipsku Made it past 1000 miles, yay! I don't think I've ever cycled that much in one year before. This challenge has been a huge motivation to use the bike a lot more. I barely take public transport now, I mostly hop on one of the hundreds of free nextbikes around me and simply ride where I want to go. Last weekend, I used my subscription for the first time in another city with the same scheme. That opens up new options when I'm travelling. I can rent a bike for 30 minutes for free.
