Jo Burt has spent the majority of his life riding bikes, drawing bikes and writing about bikes. When he's not scribbling pictures for the whole gamut of cycling media he writes words about them for road.cc and when he's not doing either of those he's pedaling. Then in whatever spare minutes there are in between he's agonizing over getting his socks, cycling cap and bar-tape to coordinate just so. And is quietly disappointed that yours don't He rides and races road bikes a bit, cyclo-cross bikes a lot and mountainbikes a fair bit too. Would rather be up a mountain.

I used to go that way to work. It's nasty and congested. I doubt any changes will make the congestion worse.

A Dead Grass Snake. His head had been squashed by a car but his body was untouched. Unlucky. I have never seen one alive. I nearly fell off my bike.
