A while back I upgraded the Irish Beverly 350 to some Dr Pulley sliders. The results were excellent. So of course, I had to try them in the Spanish Beverly 400. But this time, the goal was different, but the results the same: Big improvement.

Piaggio claims the Beverly 350 gets 65 MPG, but most real-world owners see the high 50s. I wanted better. Ditching the "butt dyno" for cold, hard data, I threw in some Dr. Pulley sliders, tweaked the aerodynamics, and made a counter-intuitive exhaust choice to push this old agricultural 330cc up to a massive 74.4 MPG.

I’ve just finished a digital deep-clean of 74 .htaccess files, and it turns out my server was a graveyard for dead PHP versions and redundant code. Here’s why your server config is probably a mess, how to fix it, and why "set and forget" is a lie we tell ourselves to sleep at night.

I wanted my Beverly 350 to stop screaming at me on the motorway, so I swapped the stock rollers for Dr. Pulley sliders to see if they actually deliver a real-world "overdrive." I didn't rely on my gut; I plugged in the OBD2 kit and logged the data. Turns out, the numbers don't lie, and the difference at 70mph is anything but anecdotal.

The modern maxi-scooter market has splintered into three tribes: fake adventure bikes, overweight land yachts, and traditional step-thrus. I break down the marketing bollox of why people buy them versus what they actually use them for. Spoiler: the one that gets called a 'moped' might just be the best of the bunch.

Lake Viñuela is finally full, and the politicians are taking a victory lap. But don't be fooled. The crisis wasn't just a lack of rain; it was avocados, housing greed, and phantom infrastructure. The water is back for now, but the incompetence that drained it is still here.
