Tailwind UK has announced they're closing on 15 September.

Good luck finding any 30 or 50 serving bags, as there seems to be little left at the usual places online.

My Google Photos face grouping has been completely dead for weeks. It hasn't indexed a single new photo.

I tried contacting Google One support thinking they could help. They basically refused to do anything, claiming that server-side features are entirely out of their scope and told me to just send feedback in the app (which we all know goes straight into a black hole).

I have tried/checked:

* My face grouping settings are 100% turned on. * I've cleared the app cache and everything is updated. * I’ve left my phone plugged in on Wi-Fi overnight with the app open and screen timeout turned off to force a foreground sync. * I even tried manually tagging photos and making new shared albums to try and "nudge" the algorithm.

Nothing works. I think my actual account database is stuck in some endless loop on Google's cloud servers?

Has anyone actually dealt with this backend freeze and found a way to kickstart it without turning the master switch off (which I know wipes out all past face data)? Or am I just completely stuck?

I’m running the Serpent Trail 100k next month and am looking for some details regarding the aid stations.

Since I plan to be mostly self-sufficient (relying on gels and Tailwind and restocking from my drop bag at the midway point) I was wondering what additional supplies might be available at the checkpoints to supplement that if/when fatigue sets in?

Any extra advice about the race would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Anyone else having issues creating routes on the desktop version of Strava?

Adding a waypoints typically generates a route, and I used to be able to drag the path to adjust it. Now, however, attempting this causes the interface to freeze and become unresponsive.

I’ve reached out to u/strava-team support, but since I don't anticipate a reply before Christmas, I’m hoping for a better response here!

The number of posts on this subreddit from people trying to sell race entries is getting ridiculous. I think it really puts people off joining and just makes the community look bad. Anyone else?
