The First Metric Century of the Season
Reading Time: 3 minutesYesterday I set off from home at around 08:00 for what I planned would be a one hundred kilometre ride. The rational was that I would cycle to and from Geneva, around 50 kilometres, and participate in a group ride with Bike Club Switzerland, another fifty kilometre ride. It’s because it was easy to add a few kilometres that I decided to bring this first one hundred kilometre ride to fruition.
I consider myself lucky with the routing. I was expecting that we would climb from Geneva, into France, go around the foot of the Jura towards Divonne, have coffee, and then ride back. I expected that the ride back would be the route that I had just ridden to get to Geneva.
In fact the opposite was true, and that’s great. It meant that the ride out of Geneva was on the road I had just taken, and the road back to Geneva was different. It made riding back to Geneva a rational thing to do. I then rode back to Nyon via Versoix before going up from the Mies roundabout to Coppet, before then riding back down, into Nyon, and then up through Nyon before heading home.
This ride was relaxed for the entire route. From Nyon to Geneva I made sure to cycle below my maximum, even resting, without pedaling for stretches. I also decided to take a new route that I have done with groups, but not solo, through the forest above Commugny. It allows the trip to be away from cars for longer. There isn’t much traffic at 8am on a Saturday.
I arrived to Geneva with half an hour to spare before the start of the ride. I was surprised by how great the conditions were. It was nippy, and I definitely felt that I would have been happier with an extra layer or two, but those layers, on a bike, are hard to carry once it gets warm, so I chose to run slightly cold. It paid off.
A Good Pace with Less Climbing
I appreciated that the pace was more relaxed, and with less climbing for once. I enjoy not having to push for the entire ride, to keep up, and not to have to get through too many climbs. It also helps that the weather is good, and that the wind is calm.
Why Relax?
People are often surprised when I choose easlier rides but I prefer them. When I went on difficult run, after difficult run, and then more difficult rides I push myself to the point of just heading home and recovering. According to Garmin, Suunto and Apple I was pushing too hard.
When you walk, and run, and hike, and then cycle you’re changing from one system of muscles, to a second and then a third, and it needs to adapt. I was pushing too hard so I struggled at the end of several activities.
Recovered
Yesterday I rode for four to six hours, for a total of around seven hours of being out. I rode to Geneva relaxed, and the group ride was relaxed. It was so relaxed that on a climb where I am usually knackered, and dropped, I coped with ease, such ease I rushed up the final climb, and then turned back to rejoin the group.
On the ride back to Nyon I made sure not to push too hard on the long flat bit towards Versoix, and that climb, and then I went up via Mies, before heading across to Coppet, before heading back down to the lakeside.
When I got to the UEFA traffic light I had enough power left to race cars on the road that goes by the plage de Nyon. I kept up right up to the Débarcadère before heading up, and towards home.
And Finally
To give an idea of how much energy I had left after 100 kilometres I was at the Emil Frey traffic light, waiting to turn right, when I tried to push and I felt the chain block. I had to dismount the bike, move to the pavement and identify the issue.
The chain had jumped off the cassette, between the cassette and the spokes and jammed. I then had to try to work it loose. In the process I either bent or loosened some spokes so that the wheel lost it’s alignment.
I might have had plenty of energy when cycling, but I was too knackered, when I got home, to go to a cycling shop to get them to check the bike. I have to wait for Tuesday to get the prognosis. Ideally it’s checking the rear derailleur and tightening wheel spokes, not more serious.
For once I think I fared better than the bike. We’ll see whether I have to take a break from cycling while the bike is fixed.
Most importantly, if I had refrained from sprinting to keep up with cars I would have been even more rested/relaxed.

Templar – Conquering Swords Review By Steel DruhmThere’s a burgeoning old school 80s trve metal movement growing these days, with more and more young bands longing to sound really olde. Steel is there for that, as it speaks directly to his ancient bones. A good number of these retro sword-swinging acts seem to be coming out of Sweden of late. We covered Century’s Sign of the Storm last year, and here comes Templar with their Conquering Swords debut, which was produced by Century’s Staffan Tengnér. As a fan of conquest and swords (and that awesome van-worthy cover art), I’m the target audience for this early 80s throwback insanity, which steals from cult acts like Manilla Road, Cirith Ungol, and Brocas Helm as well as NWoBHM heroes like Satan and Witchfinder General. All this is to be expected, but what I didn’t see coming was the hefty Mercyful Fate influence that Templar throw around like a 50-pound sack of wet concrete. On paper, that should not work, but does it work in your tin ear? Let’s take a peek.
After a rousing, table-setting intro, you’re launched into “Witchking” and greeted by classic 80s guitar lines with a burly trve vibe sure to get your lust for battle growing. When Isak Neffling starts singing, those familiar with the Mercyful Fate demos and the original EP will hear a notable similarity to an early-day King Diamond. I don’t mean the high-pitched falsettos, but the ominous baritones he used regularly before he became a faux-evil cartoon character. One could also say Isak also reminds of The Night Eternal’s Ricardo Baum, who borrowed a lot from Mr. Diamond vocally himself. Either way, it makes for an interesting listen as Isak sings of Tolkien baddies, swords, and sorcery. “Excalibur” is all beef and chest-pounding bravado with a galloping pace, scrotal power to spare, and a chorus that feels just epic enough. It hits all the nostalgia bells and feels ancient as fook, but it can still beat your ass like a back-alley thug.
Elsewhere, “Exiled in Fire” is fast, fist-pumping classic metal with sweet guitar work and a rowdy, rough edge that takes me back to the dirty, unpolished NWoBHM days. “Shipwreck” is another riffy good time with a vague In Solitude vibe, and “White Wolf” is about as epic 80s metal as it gets without lapsing into Spinal Tap levels of parody. At a tight 40 minutes and with all songs contained in the 4-5 minute window, there’s not much fluff or blubber on the compositions. The only drawback is that the writing routinely sits in that “good and almost very good” pocket, never fully reaching that next level of badassery. It’s an easy, entertaining spin, but it won’t blow anyone’s mind or make many end-of-year lists. The production is painstakingly designed to sound rough and vintage, and it does hit that 1980-1982 aura with a warmth and texture that modern recordings often lack.
Gustav Harrysson and Teddy Edoff bring the sounds of proto and epic 80s metal to the Great Hall, cleaving closely to the NWoBHM blueprint but always injecting that grand and glorious edge to their playing. I hear many hints of early Mercyful Fate and Satan in their choices, and the Manilla Road-isms are there too. I don’t know if Isak Neffling was trying to channel King Diamond, but he certainly does, and that adds to the nostalgic appeal. Listen to “White Wolf,” and you hear the earliest days of Mercyful Fate, and that’s undeniably cool. His vocals don’t always work, though, and things get especially weird and awkward on “The Sorceress.” In toto, Isak gives Templar an X factor the band wouldn’t have otherwise, and that certainly works in their favor despite a few misfires.
Conquering Swords is an interesting and engaging debut from a band that have the potential to be much more. There are moments scattered across the album that hint at greatness, and maybe with more time and effort, those parts lead someplace special. As things stand, Templar are a good throwback band with one foot in the past and the other looking for the next place to stomp. Where they go from here will prove interesting. Worth checking out for the love of Diamond and rust(ed swords).

By Creeping Ivy
Like all subgenres, speed metal exists at the nexus of other genres: namely, classic heavy metal and thrash. Whether a band leans towards a classic or thrashy version of the sound becomes the primary distinguisher. Night Danger, the latest LP from longstanding Colombian band Revenge, is a speed metal record in the vein of Running Wild and Razor. But Revenge leans in a classic direction, claiming Judas Priest and Helloween as inspirations. Indeed, that Helloween-inspired artwork, coupled with the band’s longevity, should be enough to convince speed freaks to give Night Danger a spin. Those who observe the speed limit, however, will probably need more than the orange glow of a horse’s face to be convinced.1
Speed metal fans will be happy to hear that Night Danger consistently fulfills the promise of the genre’s adjective, with quality performances across the board. All but one of its songs gallop at the pace of the steed adorning its cover. To the list of Revenge’s self-professed classic influences, I would add the contemporary heavy metal band Century as a sonic touchstone, insofar as Night Danger tends to keep things up-tempo and, production-wise, traditional. The first half of the album races through songs that veer more in the classic direction, offering harmonized guitar melodies (“Black Sight”), fist-pumping choruses from Esteban ‘Hellfire’ Mejía (“Night Danger”), and impressive solos from lead guitarist Night Crawler (“Soldier’s Heart”). On the back half, Revenge delves into thrashier terrain, building songs around more menacing riffs (“Desire from Pain”) and stompier bridges (“The Devil Race”) that allow drummer Hell Avenger to show off his double bass skills. Despite really having only one speed, Night Danger doesn’t overstay its welcome; no song feels overlong, and the album sensibly clocks in at just under 40 minutes.
Even for speed metal aficionados, though, Night Danger will read less like a holistic album and more like a collection of similar songs. The title track, for example, follows up opener “Black Sight” with a similar kind of introduction: a riff punctuated by drum accents before blastoff. From there, “Night Danger” also mirrors the opener’s pre-solo, half-time bridge. By the time the intro riff to “Soldier’s Heart” rolls around at the midpoint, the listener feels as if they’ve already heard a version of it as the intro to “Night Danger.” Closer “Crushing Death” is one of the stronger cuts on the album, morphing its righteously thrashin’ riff into a jaunty verse and a chorus with uber melodic guitar tags. Nothing about it, however, makes it feel like a closer; it could just as easily live somewhere in the middle of Night Danger.
This is not to say, however, that there’s no songwriting variation to be found here. As the only mid-tempo track on Night Danger, “Misty Night” first comes to mind. Beyond its tempo, the song’s solo also contains a minute variation, picking up on the melody of the main riff before shredding the listener’s face off. Speaking of solos, “The Devil Race” refreshingly opens with one (and, yes, has one during the bridge). On the low end, bassist Camilo Hernandez is periodically noticeable, adding countermelodies that would make Steve Harris proud (“Night Danger,” “Desire from Pain”). Switching from strings to voices: Hellfire is a solid vocalist, but the gang vocals on “The Hammers Fall” add a refreshing flavor to the mix. All of these variations, however, are infrequent and virtually imperceptible.
Speed metal is gonna speed metal, but the lack of variety on Night Danger will likely pose issues for devotees and neophytes alike. Fans of the genre should dig this, but they’ll also crave a few more mid-tempo tracks to keep things interesting. Those less familiar with Revenge’s influences won’t easily forgive the album’s mono-temporality. Night Danger probably won’t turn you into a speed freak, but if you already are one, it’ll satisfy your need.

Good morning. 😴⏰☕
1 September 2025
We’re already two-thirds through 2025. One in three Americans were born in the 21st century—and that number will only grow as new lives begin and old ones quietly exit.
There’s no one left from the 19th century. The last known person, Emma Morano—born in 1899 in the Kingdom of Italy—passed in 2017 at the age of 117. Think of what she witnessed: born before indoor plumbing reached her village, she lived to see smartphones, jet engines, and the internet. Flying machines weren’t fiction—they arrived.
Now here we are, a quarter into the 21st century. Past 1999—a year that once felt impossibly distant, especially when I was in high school and science fiction treated it like a threshold. Turns out, it was just another year. But the thresholds keep moving.
“Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.” — George Orwell
