We would very happily pay UK train prices if this were the view every time we hopped on board.

Carlsberg don’t do train journeys, but if they did …
When you look out of the window, and the Giro d’Italia is going past

How do you know if the differences were due to the wheels or the tyres when you changed both at the same time?

@mdavidford Even worse(?) it's shown on a white mannequin (that's not even in a cycling position).

I think the media should concentrate on the road users who do most of the pedestrian killing and injuring: drivers.

@John Emms I have friends in Croydon. When I visit, cycling down from Greenwich, its pretty crap for cycling from where the Waterlink way ends. You really need to be a confident cyclist on many of the roads. You're correct, that its a borough that would greatly benefit from active travel. There are so many small measures could be made to improve things and its frustrating to see. Especially when there is funding available to them to get these schemes in place.

@Didsbury Just for interest, as a slang term using "I was shook" to mean "I was shaken" or "I was shocked" has quite a long history; it comes from African-American patois and can be seen, for example, in the Elvis song "All Shook Up" (written by an African-American in 1957). In recent years it's become more common due to its use in rap music. Personally I wouldn't use it because nothing looks more ridiculous than a 57-year-old white man trying to pretend he's down with the kids but it is a recognised slang term acknowledged in major dictionaries, e.g. Oxford: Shook (colloq.) Emotionally or physically disturbed, upset.

Sad to be the bearer of bad news. A rider killed last night in Renfrewshire. Condolences to all those associated with Johnston Wheelers CC.

Seethrough. It does not look fantastic.

Really interesting read. I like the point that getting older doesn’t mean you have to stop enjoying cycling; it just means your approach to training may need to change. Staying consistent and adapting your rides to your fitness level seems much more sustainable than trying to train like you did years ago.

@Didsbury Both. Sorry, English not my first language.
