mycyclingweekend 2015_11_16.jpgSocks, socks, socks! - Here are your #mycyclingweekend socks
We love socks here at road.cc.
They've managed to get a bad reputation as a cop-out gift. But we've been racking our brains trying to remember a time when we've received socks as a present and felt anything other than gratitude.
You can never have too many socks, especially when you're a cyclist. We genuinely believe that. Seriously. Check out our socky Christmas gift guide if you don't believe us.

It appears plenty of you share our sentiments when it comes to socks, because we received quite a few photos over the weekend of you lot showing your footwear off.
Here are a few of our favourite #mycyclingweekend entries, and our top sock-soaking #mycyclingweekend moment from Gavin Butler.

We appreciate Gavin's commitment to the cause, and his ability to out-cycle Mark Cavendish - if only the Cycling World Championships were an amphibious event, eh?

But, this #mycyclingweekend winner, for his ability to find a beach and make it look like July in November, as well as his stunningly yellow socks, is Christof Damian.
We should be in touch with you via Instagram Christof, so you can claim your prize.
If you've still got some footwear to show off, do it in the comments section, or fire us over a photo on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook with the #mycyclingweekend hashtag clear for the world to see.
Just a reminder that one of the relevant councillors dropped in to the comments of the story linked in the last paragraph to say that it wasn't...
I wouldn't let a mallet anywhere near my tent pegs either.
Are you riding them on British roads? In which case that's indistinguishable from gravel anyway.
I think it very much depends what we're talking about. For "people now using cycling as part of their transport" it's a small percentage ...
Not quite I think (again, element of guesswork, could be wrong), I think they would have tried to claim he thought they were participating in a...

Thanks. Seems like this could have been included in the review....
*takes head out of bucket of cold water* No harm done, needed waking up anyway.
The trouble with that, desirable as it would appear, is that manslaughter has a pretty high bar; the defendant has to be proven to have been ...
Harsh to arrest somebody, just because their car decided to flip over.
