half_a_million.jpgLive blog: Who'll be the 500,000th cyclist on the Embankment Cycle Superhighway? and much more
Jack has been writing about cycling and multisport for over a decade, arriving at road.cc via 220 Triathlon Magazine in 2017. He worked across all areas of the website including tech, news and video, and also contributed to eBikeTips before being named Editor of road.cc in 2021 (much to his surprise). Jack has been hooked on cycling since his student days, and currently has a Trek 1.2 for winter riding, a beloved Bickerton folding bike for getting around town and an extra beloved custom Ridley Helium SLX for fantasising about going fast in his stable. Jack has never won a bike race, but does have a master's degree in print journalism and two Guinness World Records for pogo sticking (it's a long story).

Usual ugly Pinarello, bumps and curves where they aren't needed. And, according to Mapdec, not well built.

20s penalty when you draft the moto's for 3/4 course, typical bs 'penalt'. It's deliberate so needs harsher, that's why riders, not just Aru will continue to cheat this way, sticky bottles etc. Nibali his fellow countryman did one of the worst examples of this not so long back.
I bought narrow replica/lookylikey CF mudguards from RSP years ago, not much difference in weight but all the advantages of traditional mudguard materials.
Oh and well done to Raleigh, people getting about doing ordinary everyday stuff who happen to be on a cycle without feeling the need to adorn them with superfluous attire.
I aint got a f**kin hedge.
I aint got a f**kin lawn.
And frankly your f**kin songs make me f**kin sick.
I cut my f**kin' hedges on Saturday morning and mowed the lawns, and did a run to the tip! Can I please ride my f**kin' bike in peace now?
Sturmy Archer, Campagnolo on my mind! Or perhaps a Lilac Harry Quinn?
Half Man Half Biscuit, eh? I think I preferred Carter USM.
