Good morning,
I have a favour to ask: if you enjoy getting my newsletter, would you mind sharing it on Twitter?
I’m continuing my experiment of posting links from the archives down at the bottom in case you’ve got time on your hands and an appetite for internet exploring.
Here are some things I’d like to share with you today:
Suck Less. I’ve just completed this 30-day “Practice and Suck Less Challenge.” I enjoyed it so much I’m going to repeat it this month.
⛴ A Single Map: My continued exploration of the map that I live on discovered scuttled fishing boats, peeling wooden hulls, wobbly homemade jetties and huts: it felt like the marshlands of North Carolina, the bayous of Lousiana, or a fishing village in Haiti.
️ Questions: Fancy answering some deceptively difficult questions about life?
Wanderlust: Staring at a screen and desperately dreaming of far-off lands? Mapcrunch will drop you on a random street, somewhere on Earth… (Just click ‘Go’ at the top of the page.)
Film: The most elusive man in North America? Dag Aabye is a septuagenarian Ultra Marathon champion who lives completely off the grid.
🧠 Article: 68 Bits of Unsolicited Advice. (Being enthusiastic is worth 25 IQ points.)
Environment: If you don’t quite have the energy to read a dozen ‘REWILD THE WORLD’ books and a dozen ‘BEEF IS BEST’ books, then this considered article on how to save British farming (and the countryside) will serve you well.
✂️ And a few snippets for you…
✂️ People got very angry on Facebook when I posted about Bill Gates’ interesting new book on Climate Change.
✂️ “You know, wherever you get out on your bike, it’s not how far you go or how fast, it’s how much fun you have along the way.” Timmy Mallett (yes, Timmy Mallett!) is a gifted artist, a keen cycle tourer, and a great speaker.
✂️ MSR (outdoor equipment) are offering free kit to selected individuals who join them as ambassadors for 6 months.
✂️ Pete Casey is still going on his brave ascent of the Amazon and could use your help.
✂️ Massimo has a consistently fascinating Twitter account.
✂️ Epic cycling on ice.
Can I help you? Let me know if you have a relevant project that my readers would appreciate. Here’s what you guys have been up to recently… |
