Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

There's no way that absolute meat sack isn't fully aware of what he's doing.
HI folks, the newsletter sign up should definitely not be appearing for subscribers so we're working on fixing that ASAP - sorry about that. ...
.. and probably worth Cav remembering that there's also quite a big back story between Quick step and Jakobsen... as well as his own.
I tend to agree. Whilst the sign about Click and Collect being available could have been clearer who they choose to serve and how is up to them....
'Sexual politics' 😂...
Thank you very much for the quick reply and info. I'll order the 105.
