Cycling. Children. Glasgow.
Another non-cycling one I’m afraid. You might have spotted an article on BBC online a few days back regarding the Communications Data Bill, which our beloved government have just published in draft form. This got all sorts of exciting debate going for a little while, as you might’ve guessed from the bill’s informal name of […]
Today marks a glorious day. The day when, after 46 days ahead, Ade’s 01:41 record on the Pollockshaw’s Road Sprint was crushed by a storming 01:36. It’s not a long segment at just over 800m, nor is it hugely uphill. It is, however, now mine. Let me tell you how it came about. It started […]
Or at least, The Definitive Guide to Cycles & The Train Operating Companies (TOCs) I Know About. Which is a bit less snappy.

Like all good Googling sessions, I found this whilst searching for something completely different.

Go and read it here, but make sure that anyone in the vicinity is aware that any subsequent muffled snorts will be due […]
Nothing more to load.
