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.

Shame it's only on the 872. Quite fancying an 883 Aero Disc at the moment but the magnitude of the charge for custom paintwork, which isn't really custom but a slightly broader choice, is disappointing.
Here's a less subtle clue:
363 Leach Place
Walton Summit Centre
Bamber Bridge
Preston
Lancashire
PR5 8AS
Now THIS is a Giro themed frame:
It is even the correct shade of pink.
I guess there was a batch of off shade pink triangle pattern forks that was going cheap?
Sit thee down and 'ave a gander at this 'ere load of tosh. Will you mek it reet Jack Sexty?
Honestly can’t think why I put ‘Yorkshire’, I’ve actually been to the Ribble Valley a few times! Blaming on Tour de Yorkshire talk in the office and Friday beers.
There’s a clue in the name.......
“The Yorkshire online bike brand...” I wonder if any of the riders on today’s Tour de Lancashire rode a prototype.
For some people, anywhere north of Watford must be Yorkshire or Scotland.
Gopping.
You're doing it on purpose now, aren't you?
Eh?
Have you got it yet?
Ill-considered pink spoldges on a grey bike do not evoke the thrill, history and beauty of the Giro.
