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!!!

And how are those attracted/paid for? Through bigger audiences. There are 53 million black people in the USA, and around 1.2 billion in Africa. How much extra sponsorship and TV coverage do you think women's racing might get if there were a few black US and African women competing? That's not, in your idiotic phrase, "wokeism", it's good sound commercial common sense.
@chrisonabike I don't know how they would get confused - one's called Jack and one's called Nigel.
There is so much depressing deja vu here. The defence factors taken from the usual tick box list : "poor lighting", "dark clothes", "didn't see him" etc. The usual rehabilitation path comments : "full of remorse". The common previous : "drugs, and alcohol", "no licence" etc. Even your comments about the tipper truck industry ring a bell. Look up the 1957 British film "Hell Drivers", if you haven't seen it. It must have have been inspired by events of the time. I did wonder why Renshaw had been on remand. Was he a flight risk?
The cycle path at that point is (part of) the main road, not the side road.
Its not fucking careless if you drive a vehicle and don't check your mirrors. Its fucking dangerous and its fucking deadly. How on earth are we still dealing with this bollocks. Everything about this is maddening. The fact he tried to weasel out of it and blame the cyclist. The fact hes avoided prison. The fact he was still driving after such a long history of dangerous driving. The fact he is still only banned for 12 months despite killing someone due to his inability to drive safely.
The tipper truck industry is an absolute Wild West. Scandal ridden, partly because of the complete lack of regulatory oversight and the pay-by-the-load system which incentives dodgy driving. I hope there is an investigation into the firm’s recruitment process and a corporate manslaughter charge. We urgently need a HSE investigation into the whole industry
Perhaps they're confusing the writer with a certain - ahem - new poster?
My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Zinovly Savyulak.
Sounds like a recommendation to me - after all, who'd want their writing to be emotionally empty?
I think MM's point is more fatally flawed than that - people *do* complain about inequality in running. There might be less inequality than in cycling, but there's still an over-representation of white people and barriers to participation.

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
