EXTRAORDINARY FANTASTIC 😆

Just held the Club TT and the public i.e drivers were great. Even had a few stop to spectate.
Never mind BC and AC, we’re talking BW and AW.

And now the Women grab Gold and another World Record

What a wee honey Laura Trott is.

It is incredibly exciting and I am chuffed that we as a nation are absolutely stamping down our authority in all forms of cycling.

Forget Football being the national sport, Cycling in any form is where we should be focusing our energies and spending our hard earned on.

Imagine every town having a velodrome where a football ground used to be.

fervouredimage for Prime Minister!

😀

On a serious note though, yes, yes, yes – We need to really promote cycling, to work on cycling. As transport, as sport, as leisure, as fun. Cycling is good for a nation, let’s do something with this momentum!

Alopecia areata

Arise Sir Wiggo and Dame Pendleton????

agree totally

Funny isn’t it, Britain leads the world at sitty down sports! Put us on a seat and we are unstoppable.

Be great but might be difficult with 40% of the nation obese :roll:.Yes more reason for more people to cycle!!!!!!!.

What a wee honey Laura Trott is.

…..behave! 😀

As somebody posted on Twitter t’other night;

“move over football, you’ve had your chance, it’s time for a new national sport!”

Amen to that!

Yep about time we focused on cycling
Think its only the big Advertising that keeps football our main sport

We have more track cycling to follow nice.

As Samuel L Jackson himself posted on twitter earlier:

@SamuelLJackson: Like I said before, those BRITS are some PEDALIN’, RECORD BREAKIN’, MUTHACYCLINPHUCCAS!!

I have never felt so proud to be British and a cyclist.

Absolutely stunning performance.

Massive congratulations to all involved in BC.

Just for a moment i thought that we cyclists would be elevated to greatness- but i still nearly got killed twice tonight on my ride home by stupid car drivers not seeing me 🙄 This despite my 50 watts of off road lighting adorning the front of my steed!

Oh well……. 🙄

also occurred to me today, while sitting through another slow swimming race, that cycling is a lot more useful than swimming… or football 🙄

(i’m not the first to say but why are there only 10 cycling medals and like a bazillion swimming ones?)

any of you swim to work? no, thought not 🙂

today yesterday already :/ was f***ing ace on the track/field as well.. would have liked to be there for ennis/longjump/10,000m etc

any of you swim to work? no, thought not

I would attempt to make a joke about our summer but I can’t be bothered.

What we need on the back of all this public attention are some real cycling lanes. The money spent by local councils on painting white lines and putting up signs no-one takes any notice of is beyond a joke. On the continent they have miles of proper cycle networks of lanes separated by curbs.

Where I live there is about a mile of one made practically useless because it’s left isolated in the middle of no-where. No-one in their right mind is going to let their kids ride anywhere near along on a main road, or behind the joke of white lines littered with parked cars with bus’es whizzing past.

If they can’t sort that out, instead of paying farmer’s for set-aside strips, pay them for new bridleways. [/ot_rant]
