audio/video

I mostly stream music nowadays as it is far more convenient.

I used to have a custom designed and built Class A-A-AB power amplifier, which is on long-term loan.

books

I have a large collection of books, although in recent years I've mostly purchased e-books for convenience and storage space.

Most of my stuff is Science Fiction, with a bit of fantasy as well as a smattering of other genres. Some of my favourite authors include: Isaac Asimov, Iain Banks, Greg Bear, Greg Benford, K.J Bishop, David Brin, Charlie Stross, Kim Newman, Alistair Reynolds, Dan Simmons, and Vernor Vinge.

transport

My road bike is a Trek Madone 4.5.

My commuter bike is a Trek Soho 4.0, with a Shimano Alfine 8-speed internal hub gearbox, and disc brakes.

We've had a Tesla Model 3 SR+ since early 2021.

computers

Being a computer geek, I've obviously got a fair collection of hardware lying around. Contact me if you want more details.
