A few weeks ago I took part in my second cycling challenge in the Alps, in aid of Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research. This was a 200 mile loop around Mont Blanc, taking in France, Italy and Switzerland, ascending a total of 10000 m over the three days.

And whilst weaving my way up to the Col du Grand Saint Bernard at 2496 m, I was struck by the similarity between cycling up a mountain and running a start-up business – at least in terms of my own personal experience.

The hectic world of start-up has somewhat got the better of this blog, and I haven’t even been on the bike recently! So this is just a quick post to announce the release of a new version of our standard AC mode AFM probe.

AFM Conferences: What are the pros and cons to online conferencing?
