After a week or so of badgering Tony and Dave, my blog is live and kicking on Road.cc. So welcome aboard and hopefully it wont take you long to get onto my warped wavelength. I am taking todays blog as my audition and having read the "want to write" instructions down the left hand side of the page, I am going to use the 200 odd word review suggested as my opening gambit. "I want to write on [url=]road.cc and here is my review of the site promoting jersey I got for Christmas. My partner is so anti-argyle it isn’t true. She hisses when David Millar is on tv, it’s that bad. So convincing her to buy me a road.cc jersey took all of my charm and persistence. She did like the colour. It wont clash with the celeste of my Bianchi apparently and as we all know cycling is 100% about fashion. I had never owned an Endura garment before and I had always thought of them as a fat tyre brand. I should not have feared as the baggyness of MTB clothing isn’t on show here and the jersey has a great racing cut. The zip is long enough for me to get my chest hair out in the fens this summer (should I ever grow some) and the website’s logo looks mighty fine on the front. So there you have it. A blog, an introduction and a product review all in one!!!
It’s here!

I’ve had Alfas. The biggest incentive not to drive them to the shops is that they might not start again when it’s time to come home.

@road.cc There must be a better way than forcing* your users to reply to themselves to post links. (* admittedly that's 'forcing' as in 'forcing dangerous overtakes')
The Archive.org link for the currently offline website for the "Roads were not built for cars" book: https://web.archive.org/web/20200303025630/https://roadswerenotbuiltforcars.com/
“Many of our roads were built for cyclists, not cars” - can't believe you didn't link that back to Carlton Reid's (very comprehensive) book on that exact topic "Roads were not built for cars". Some excerpts were on the web site, though that site appears to be offline now. Archive.org might still have them (will add link in reply).
Gove: "As a cyclist myself...." No need to go any further.
* "wealthy" - of course that's a relative term and if there's anyone possessed of more than the rags they stand up in someone *else* can point to them as an example of why they aren't *really* wealthy. And they're almost certainly correct about how they *feel*!
Isn't this all "wealthy * people living in countryside / small towns in same likely to continue using problematic general purpose form of transport which incidentally makes living in countryside much more attractive for such people, has been made less expensive to use (and more convenient) by governments, and which also is one important way of signalling your wealth / social status... ...shocker"?
@Mr Blackbird - Gove's attention must be stretched with considering all the many, many benefits that we've reaped from Brexit over the years.
, “These groups may be more receptive to localised walking and cycling uptake, especially for recreational trips.” As long as it's not local to them???

only a week?
we give in too easily 🙂
Good to have another voice on board, and glad you like the jersey… responses to the first user survey seem to indicate that opinion is divided!
For your partner…
Thought she’d appreciate a pic of some lovely plaid
