Human On 2 Wheels
@humanon2wheels.bsky.social
We love to cycle, for fun, for work, on roads, off roads and with our families.
Humans seem to forget that other road users are Humans too, we are Mums, we are Dads, we are Kids and we really want to make it home in one piece.
Blindly followed the suggested cycle route on Google Maps to get to our chosen Tour of Britain viewing spot, not ideal on a #Brompton I gotta say...!! Those skinny, small wheels made for hard work.

Would've been fun on a G-line though @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social

Crikey!!!
#Vuelta25
Cyclists and Moto camera bike must've had they're hearts in their mouths there... 🫣

Went to the #ToBM yesterday on our Bromptons, Stu was just about to take the KoM when... 🫤 I guess he just wanted it more!!

It's pretty hard to try to explain to any but the keenest cycling fan why you'd go spend the best part of a day, making considerable effort, to see 5 seconds of sport...

However, plenty do it, it's a good day out.
#ToBM
@itvx.com thanks for broadcasting it 🙏

Tour of Britain KoM point…
It’s not very steep but I guess you gotta create something to dangle out there!!

Thursday, Stage 12 #LaVuelta goes up the Collada de Brenes, not high but long and quite steep.

We were there in 2022, as were Remco, Julian and Tao who are now together in the #TourOfBritain where I hope to cheer them on again tomorrow... 😀🙄🌧️

A stark contrast between the #ToBM and #Vuelta25 conditions today!!

I'm still distracted from all that I should be doing!

Tomorrow though complete focus on Tour of Britain, going to watch Stage 3 and taking a brolly; it won't be for shade...!! ☔

How am I supposed to get anything done this week...?!! #ToBM #Vuelta25

C'mon @tourofbritain.bsky.social the Lloyds ToB starts on Tuesday, in two days, yet none of your 1.2K followers have had any notifications to get them interested... get yer act together, a lot of us don't look at X any more!

Fantastic win for Ben Turner 🇬🇧 at the #Vuelta25
In celebrating he specifically pointed to the Total Energies sponsor rather than the Ineos team name...??!! Anything in that?

@lavuelta.bsky.social how crazy that the TV coverage doesn't start till 1302hrs, they'll be way beyond the first climb and at least half way up #Montgenèvre by then, all we're gonna see is a group freewheeling down a hill to the finish...!!!
#LaVuelta25 🙃
@lanternerougecp.bsky.social bound to agree

@nedboulting.bsky.social Heard NSF today, your challenging experience of when things go awry with a hire car from Drivalia completely resonate with me. I was in the mountains when I had power steering probs!! Helpful they were not…
Anyway, loving the Pod, you and Jacopo have a great dynamic

@nedboulting.bsky.social which countries/broadcasters use your World Feed Comms? It’d be so good to be able to hear it, a bit like Radio commentary. I’ve Listened to Never Strays Far since the very start, loving what you do
If you can’t tell us, contractually, maybe David could as he’s not on it!!

Since the annexation of Eurosport by TNT, I’ve decided to go Cold-Turkey on cycle racing, have avoided any news of the races so far, figure it’s the best way not to get wound up by it…
I do hope the TdF can be shown on free-to-air when it starts in Edinburgh 2027 though…

The UK has dropped to 23rd in the World Happiness Report… I think this fella was feeling the effects of that..! 🙃

When you get upset when someone “looks” at you, you know you’re not a happy chappy!!!!

HEY ALL UK #CYCLING FANS!
Inspired by the chat on DNF cycling pod about viewing figures, I think we should all watch, or have "On" ALL Live cycle races that are shown on Disco+ from now till they pull the plug; get the stats up.
When TNT look at them, they will drop off a cliff after the switch.😏

The crowds at the UCI Cyclocross World Championships are absolutely astounding…
February 2, 2025 at 9:40 PM
Hey @tntsportsus.bsky.social, please can you contact your UK buddies and tell them to keep the cycling Grand Tours accessible to all over here?

Cycling fans don't wanna watch people chase balls, we wanna watch people chase people! We're completely gutted at losing Eurosport and Discovery+ coverage
January 31, 2025 at 5:21 PM
Hey @lanternerougecp.bsky.social, now WBS have screwed us, looks like we're gonna be very reliant on you from now on to keep us in touch with the Grand Tours... Can you you watch them for us and do an informal Live Pod Comms please 🙏
January 31, 2025 at 10:58 AM
For me, watching the Pro Cycling races through the summer is therapeutic, for most of each race I have Disco+ or ITV on my iPad or phone, listening to the superb Comms of Carlton, Rob, Ned, I listen when out and about, headphones, whilst walking, driving (minimised).
Gone... Not paying you WBS! 👎

#Stormzy respect him as an Artist not as a road user.

Having illegally tinted windows isn't "cool".

We use non-verbal indicators on the roads all the time and being able to see a drivers body language undoubtedly helps.
Stormy, please help set an example not be part of the problem...

I lovely compliment from a random fella, followed by something slightly surprising...

Not the kind of HEAVY traffic I'd normally expect to filter through in Central #London, gotta say it was quite impressive though.
