Window shopping
Not exactly sure who this is written for from @BritishGQ “Gentleman’s Quarterly”, but it’s definitely no one from @Comm_Cycleworks if it’s starting price is set at £75 for a jersey. Looks very smart though but window shopping only I’m afraid! https://buff.ly/2RacbeH #justride

Giro 2020
We’ve been very much enjoying the #TDF2020 but can’t wait for the @giroditalia – this promo video from @RaiSport with @vincenzonibali and friends is just stunning and if you love bike racing, if it doesn’t make you all tingly then I feel sorry for you!

More cycling essential
“More cycling ‘essential’ for EU Green Deal” well, yes, obviously. But I guess we in the UK will not be part of this. Whether we have something similar, well, your guess is as good as mine – and if there is then we can certainly cut a smart U-turn on it whenever we want! https://buff.ly/2DklYvi #justride #getoutandride #activetravel #cleanair #cyclinglife #twowheelsgood #gorideyourbike #pedalpower #gearchange #cycleforhealth
