I write, mainly about bikes and balls, for TNT Sports, Cyclist, Eurosport, Cycling Plus, When Saturday Comes. Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, my opinion, man.

Today's Tour of Turkiye stage finishes at the top of an absolute bastard of a climb called Kıran.

I rode it (ground it out) for @cyclist.co.uk a few years back and although the views are very pleasant, I did not get to enjoy them.

Fun one to write up, though!

More interesting than Visma skying it over the bar is another top 20 for the best park in London

According to Google, Mark Cavendish's first victory in a Grand Tour came two days after he won another stage of the same Giro d'Italia.

Apart from making so sense whatsoever, he won neither.

How is this company fine with utterly failing at the most fundamental thing it's supposed to do?

From Sally Rooney's recent essay on Ronnie O'Sullivan in the NYRB, this story (which I don't remember from the time) is astonishing.(And still gets beaten by the kicker)

Here are my wreckless wagers, because I love a longshot or "value bet"

Maybe! But he voted in 2012 so I don't think he'd sit this one out, and he'd do it for Lisa (who is presumably living in a very blue state by now)
