Redundancies beckon as British Cycling restructures while concerns over return of ‘toxic culture’ grow My story 👇👇 www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/o...

Great news! We were under paid on an endowment policy so the Prudential is making a payment for the sum of £12.33…. #Doublesallround

#fingerpostfriday. Heres a round up of the last couple of weeks although the last one doesn’t count but makes up in enthusiasm…

Tweed Twats galore in #Braemar this afternoon. 3/4 length tweed coats, large hats and loud voices to match. They look like they’ve ran through the House of Bruar covered in glue for their ‘Scottish Gentry starter kit’….

I love Italy and all things Italian cycling with the exception of one item of clothing which thankfully Ive never seen in the UK. Those skin suit/bib short all-in-ones with no arms, bugger me they’re awful.

Thomas Tuchel remains upbeat about England’s loss to Argentina in the World Cup as he is pictured smiling at his office desk this morning.

I would like to point out that it’s fcuking freezing on the East Coast of Scotland and more akin to early April than July. I’ve worn a jacket to ride into work this week. #heatwave #myarse

When you introduce a byelaw banning fires and bbqs then supply your rangers with nothing more than a selection of harsh words to enforce said byelaw then don’t be surprised when fires break out. #cairngorms #Glenmore

So, our local FB group for the area we live in has a thread where home owners ring doorbells have activated when small drones have been flown up to their front doors at 4am. What do we think? Burglars recceing the area?

2 people for 3 nights please? Italian campsite: we only book for minimum of 7 nights. Ok, 2 people for 7 nights Campsite: there is a minimum of 3 people per pitch Ok, we’ll pay for the third but there’s just 2 of us Campsite: no, that is unacceptable to us, there must be 3 people You’re weird

At which point did Elon Musk reach the fork in the road of life and there stood 2 signposts, one read ‘universal Tony Stark adulation and all round good egg’ and the other read ‘Cunt’ and he chose the latter?

Remember, if walking the WHW, don’t camp on Auch Estates it is not encouraged. Killing and burying a cyclist is another matter though…

Nothing builds excitement and tension more than watching the last 2KM of a #Giro sprint finish than Sean Kelly slurring his words like the local anaesthetic hasn’t fully worn off after having a crown fitted.

I’ve been fitting my new gravel bike with the older road wheels and changed the freehub from SRAM to Microspline. As the group set is GRW with a mighty 10-51 cassette.The rear wheel wouldn’t fit so Ive been on a lengthy support chat with Hunt looking at the push2 fit axle adaptors. 1/2.

2/2. I literally ghosted out of the chat when I realised I had fitted the disc rotors back to front on not one but both wheels and now the wheel fits. I’ve also fitted the tyres back to front…

It’s six years since the secret Army base was built in that park in Glasgow ready to impose martial law on Scotland. I wonder if it’s still there?

We were out adventuring yesterday and didn’t manage to watch #StradeBianche, after hearing about the 80km solo by #Pogaçar, there’s not much point in watching it is there?

I received some walking trousers today from the Decathlon today. Strangely they were only in the outer postage bag and a clear plastic bag also the trousers did not have a swing tag attached. Upon inspection I found traces of mud around the hems and had clearly been worn. Cue a rather curt email.

we’re researching a walking route for the Easter hols in Madeira. I’ve found the exact route on YouTube. The bloke who posted it has left no description and has comments disabled. What a nobber.
