Good point, I'd probably conveniently forgotten that due to my part in that (voting, "I paid a lot of tax and bought a fraction of a bomb" etc.)

Top sports people have to focus on their sport, or they won't be the top of their sport. That they focus intensively on their sport does not give...

Putting in a single cycle lane isn't enough. Nobody just rides up and down the same road again and again. Your need a network of cycling...

Cool - that removes one of my issues with Garmin. I'm quite happy with the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt, so I doubt that I'll be switching unless Garmin come...

GCN just did a cool video on this. All I could think by the end was that perhaps if you got to do what the presenter did and mince around Italy in...

Seems quite tame tbh.
A piece like that in my local rag would bring out many, many times more comments usually with a healthy dose of xenophobia and casual racism thrown in for good measure.
I find it's an extremely good way of measuring the lie of the nation and how the majority of the population are a bunch of moronic arseholes.
Here's another one: https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/nicest-places-cycle-day-out-4257033
Comments are turned on for it.
"
How many laws have the likes of Ezerbad and the Mushrooms broken this week? Whilst riding around with their acorns on display?. Too many to count is my guess."

The Bristol post comments, like many forums, have 'regulars' who all know each other by username, are all convinced that the others are using multiple sockpuppets, and hate each other with a quite astounding virulence...

By all means come and visit. We're even getting 3 roads pedestrianised in the centre: https://www.bristol247.com/news-and-features/news/three-city-centre-roads-to-be-closed-to-traffic/
Well, more kind of pro-ish...
(I notice that they didn't turn on commenting)
Do they usually have comments on opinion pieces? Or did they deliberately turn off comments because she mentions them in the article?
I think they allow comments on most stuff that mentions cycling. Click bait, dontcha know...
