    Banana-bread tip. When you have your overripe bananas and are ready to freeze them, peel them and add them to a freezer bag in numbers that match whatever your typical load batch size is in your recipe.
    Pull the bag our a couple hours before starting and when thawed there will also be a liquor of banana juice in the bag along with the thawed bananas. Add all of it into the recipe.
    This saves you awkward peeling from frozen or having a mess when thawing with the skin on and then peeling.

      That's not just a tip. That's a game changer.

    Hello from Germany. Thank you for the nice video. 👍The next time I'm in Toronto, I absolutely have to visit the "Pedaal" bike shop. Looks really cool. 😃

      Thank you! Yeah, once I hopped back on my Brompton I was pretty surprised by how narrow it felt (among other things!)

      Agreed, very nice video. Yeah the out of the box bars are a little strange. John Kuosac makes some custom bars which are a bit nicer

    For me the unfold feels a little awkward so I do one step at a time on my G-Line. I have also knocked the chain off a couple of times, not sure how I managed that. Never had that issue with my other Brompton's. Toronto is on my bike bucket list and would look forward to have a cup of coffee at Pedal for sure.
    Added Pedaal and you to my subscriptions. Cheers

      Thanks! I got my glasses from a website called Zenni Optical. They were only $12! I will probably order 5 more pairs.

      It's an Ikea Kallax with the internal shelves removed! I found someone throwing it in the garbage in my neighbourhood, so I carried it home and popped my Brompton in it :) .
