Ok it’s officially a pain in the rectum doing my videos in two halves. I really need to sort out the crash. Anyway I left Wolverhampton and passed through Coven. I also need to sort out a better way of detecting when I’m near a town because Coven didn’t come up at all. I’ll probably use an embedded database rather than doing it online.
Ok so because I can’t get to the bottom of why it keeps crashing when I do long sessions I’m going to do my videos in two halves for now. Pain in the bum but at least I can keep going. Though today I had an early, unrelated crash in the second video so this one is only 30 mins long 🙂
A few changes today. Added the nearest town’s information like population and Wikipedia summary. Seems to work but the summary is… short. Also the keen-eyed amongst you will spot that I’m facing the other way. That’s just so I’m facing my fan 🙂 Also today it crashed after 17 minutes so I did a two part video. Oh and I almost forgot, I passed 500km!

Finally managed a session again today. Been sick and on holidays. Some boring country stuff and more interesting city stuff today though Stouport-on-severn is a bit rubbish. Also the geo-town thing seems to be working now. Huzzah!

I’ve increased my session length to 16km or roughly 1 hour and as expected it didn’t make it all the way to the end without crashing. I’m going to have to fix this now. Saw some lovely houses and villages along the way though.

After a few false starts I made it to Worcester. The last couple of nights I’ve been interrupted by something after 5 minutes. Also I had the idea i should make a video of bugs or odd things that have happened on the journey. A lot of early bugs have been removed so most people won’t see the warts.

I’m in Worscestershire. Also I passed through a village called Upton-Upon-Severn with a street called Minge Lane. Oh how I laughed.

After a week of holiday I’m a bit rusty. My legs are a bit seized up. Nothing too eventful today although my session was cut short by a flat phone battery.

Nothing too amazing today. Left Gloucester and my town names still aren’t working. Grrr. Also it crashed at the end again so I need to fix that too. Anyway it was a lovely cycle in the country.
Gloucester! Yes I made it. Also 400 km! Yes I made it. No vomiting! Have I said how much I’m enjoying the new camera? I think Gloucester is my first major city I’ve gone through.
