Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.

At last! Great to see really terrible driving punished with a suitable jail term for once. Well done British justice!
On a side note, do they do a version of the "zombie" knife in carbon for us weight weenies?
The NICE report should be all over the msm, but since they've already mentioned cycling once this year, it'll be ignored. Just like last time, and the time before that, and the time before that too. Do I need to go on?
Regarding the tale of the slippery-road journalist, isn't it strange that whenever someone tells of their winter misfortune it always involves black ice. It's never the ordinary, transparent ice, nor even the common white ice. No sir, it's invariably the exceedingly rare and much more unpredictable black variety that gets the blame.
Black ice is what "transparent ice" is called.
I wonder if Adam Boulton ghost wrote the Illawara Mercury editorial?
Maybe not. It's factual for a start.
So he has previous, is out on license, and yet because he pleads guilty he only gets 5 years and 2 year driving ban? Reuben's parents have a life sentence and I know the only comfort in that situation is to hope it never happens to someone else. A two year ban is utterly derisory, he should never be allowed to drive again. Life ban and if caught straight back to jail. Absolutely guaranteed he'll kill someone (hopefully just himself) in, ooh, about 3 years time.
If you don't make the cut to be a Deliveroo rider, you'd still be well-placed to be an Editor at Sky it seems
Adam Boulton is a piece of over boiled gammon, past his sell by date
Adam Boulton?
Or are you recycling this story from 2017?

No recycling here - this happened yesterday.
It wasn't listed when I posted, but it's there now.
The twitter commenter is right; he's one sick f**k.
Understatement where that pussball is concerned. As if like clockwork, the thread is filling up with comments from more hate-filled dickheads claiming they were nearly hit by a cyclist once, so all cyclists dangerous - Boy killed by a drunk driver? Nah, let's have a cyclist pile-on.
Scum. Just scum.
