The mid-70’s were an optimistic time for British transport. We got the Triumph TR7 and Rover SD1, the Intercity 125 took us across the country at 125mph, and the thunderous Concorde took us over Mach 2. Britain was proving it could still do amazing engineering. Then there was the Lotus Esprit, turning heads with its crisp, folded lines and supercar styling. By using a tiny engine, it would go on to have the largest power output per litre of any car. And it would clean up so effectively in American motor racing that it was effectively banned from competition. It’s been a Bond car, twice in its amazing 28-year long production run, and Lotus keeps tantalising us with glimpses of what it will be in the future. Big Car
Not much new to report here, just trying to take advantage of the last days of summer and get some longer bike rides in. You see that listed in the Apple Fitness app above where there was a 7.44 mile and a 7.47 mile cycle trips. Basically down to the water front and back home. Hope to get a few more in this week!
Made my yearly Trip to Vegas this year to hang with friends and do some game hunting. I almost passed on making the trip this year but I’m glad I made the extra effort to go as I had a great time. We also went back to some retro stores from last year to see if they had any new stock. Radical Reggie

Here’s 19 minutes of gameplay captured on PS5 from upcoming Metroidvania action game, F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch. In this video, you’ll get a chance to see some combat, get a feel for Rayton’s platforming abilities, and take a look at a few of the character’s skills, including Hurricane Slash, Power Tornado, and SP Skill – Arc Charge. This gameplay also features an English VoiceOver. I think this game looks pretty sweet!
