I don't understand why some of the pictures come directly to the message and some go as a link

Yes I notice if I try emailing pics the limit is easily reached. But no problem on what's appDon't quote me on this, but I think it's down to the file size of the photos I think the forum has some sort of upper size limit for photos, and if they get above about 5mb(?), they display as a link. I noticed it a while back, and started resizing my photos to reduce their file size.
I created a little "shortcut" in iOS that I can just click on the photo (or a pile) and then it asks me what size I want.
Since then, all my pics display embedded in the thread rather than links.
Doesn't help that they keep upgrading the megapixels in every phone each year... which in turn makes your photos file size bigger!

Have a couple of concerts beforehand so may be pushing it but the wife is coming to one of them so fingers crossed.Well just to keep things going we are heading to Glentress next Saturday ..we've also got a trip to fit in with Hobo Mikey who has landed in Northumberland on his way south ..

You motivated me to go check my today's stats.... I don't usually bother looking but remember I had a section I felt was fast ! Jeeeesus I didn't know I was going that fastI really enjoyed the blast around Newcastleton today with the boys makes a change not to be covered in sheep and cow shit![]()
The trails were running fast and had good flow about them. Nothing very technical but hey that didn’t matter at all. No pics just my Stava data…….. top speed is a bit optimistic tho.
The weather was great and the 140 mile round trip was enjoyable in the autumn sunshine. Some stunning scenery to take in. Could have sat in the Holly Bush beer garden and drank till I fell on me seat. Cheers Neil.

Loved it.
maybe lost connection?Not sure why I flat lined at some pointmaybe lost connection?
Maybe you were going toooooooo fast for your device.
nah the top speed was literally near the end of the ride on tarmac, always a fast section but didn't realise the Crafty could roll that fast 
Wonder what the Ebike speed record would be ???? . Probably depends on how brave you are . I don't like the speed as I get older I keep thinking what if , same with skiing.You motivated me to go check my today's stats....

Yeah I hear that mate, the fear factor is definitely a getting older thing.Wonder what the Ebike speed record would be ???? . Probably depends on how brave you are . I don't like the speed as I get older I keep thinking what if , same with skiing.

I wish I had spares like you .Since I can't ride due to injury, I decided to build up a "putter around bike" with some spares, Aliexpress and Pinkbike parts. What could possibly go wrong?
