Lots of looking at bikes and listening to people talking about bikes. And showing off our knowledge of women's cycling trivia by both answering questions correctly and winning zwift musettes. Mind you my club membership would be revoked if I didn't know who won the first women's Paris roubaix...

Rivers are such interesting places - here glimpses of life on the Grwyne Fawr, in Wales.
Lovely to see the Otter moving upstream and the great variety of bats which were present.
Looking forward to reading 'Tarka Revisited' by Ian Parsons. He always writes with such great insight & intelligence.

@cyclocrosss.bsky.social Just catching up with the Meulebeke episode. Respect for the fury directed at those behind the women's Pauwels Sauzen team - the riders deserve better.

The smallest ones have to stop at the barriers, put their bike over, climb over, then repeat the process
It’s amazing
It takes like 30 seconds
They do not care
Only ripping the course with their friends matters

I'd hoped for a benign start to the cx season to ease me in. The course and my bike had other ideas.

Last night I did a 2-Up TT with said 70yr old. He may have ~30yrs on me, but he put me in the red, got me some of my best numbers of the year, and still unwittingly dropped me on an uphill drag! 🤣
We have a pocket size 70yr old in the club. Raced a bit when young, but then not for decades, except one hill climb per year.
Showed him how his rides compared on Spin Data (a UK TT comparison system).
He's subsequently won national age group hill climb twice, and regularly trounces on flat too!🤣
