I’ve looked at clouds from both sides and these blue skies are so much better
Before driving home from the Braveheart bike ride & dinner I was bribed by STV with authentic Scottish Empire biscuits. Guaranteed to contain 110% sugar. What’s that saying ? You can take the Glaswegian out of Glasgow but 🤔😂

It takes a special kind of person to go to the African continent and show support for someone who was OK with racist and slavery views. The Rwandian children watching is so ironic.

It’s all about the right tools for the job. 3 speed hub gears, coaster rear brake. I’ve left the mudguards (not that I ride in the rain 😬 ) but the rack and kick stand are removed. The ex-racer ego said they had to go.

The Donold going on about 'Bad People" arriving in boats has a certain irony to it

When the TdF is having a moment of quietude one has to find enjoyment and cultural stimulation elsewhere

They really are obsessed and the Torygraph. Chief sports editor Oliver Brown needs to read the Olympic Charter and not reference the Daily Fail as evidence.

Congratulations to Simon Yates taking over the race lead
@giroditalia.bsky.social with one stage to go.
As someone who has experienced both winning a national Tour and losing a Grand Tour in similar circumstances I can appreciate the emotions involved. 🙂😞

Made the assumption that a shortcut along the farm track was a quicker option than the long way around on tarmac. Road tyres were doing so well and then grip and talent ran out. Doh 😩 🤡

Guess the pro cyclist game. Gifted a Mercedes SL500 after winning a major race (you get a jersey for a year) subsequently sold it because it wasn’t a diesel
