Works hard, bikes harder — probably thinks lycra is formal wear.

To be clear, I will be missing World Cup Cyclocross. There’s still a couple more non races left in the season as well as the World Championship. After that I will be truly sad. Didn’t think it was possible to fall even more in love with cycling

Did I go riding in 40° temps today? You betcha because...

Today's #DukinfieldCC ride was a hilly one, @ 1200m in 77km. We headed north out from Dukinfield through #Heyrod, #Mossley, #Greenfield and #Uppermill before starting the long climb from #Delph up #MarsdenMoor. At the top of the moor we headed west down the fast, but windy, descent over the #M62 motorway before turning left again taking us to #ScammondenDam. From there we headed across country taking in a few 10% plus-ers before hitting the main road that climbed to the top of #CraggVale. Another windy but speedy drop took us the the cafe in #Littleborough for coffee and refuel before the ride home through #Newhey, #Shaw, #Lees and #Dukinfield. Top day with Angie, Ash, Jane, Paul and a new rider, Andy. #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Duks #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome

Below that is the grey elevation profile, up to 500 feet on the left axis, and up to 80km on the bottom axis.A group of cyclists either sat or stood near benches and tables outside a cafe. In the background is a brick railway bridge with a few arches underneath, and a church spire poking upwards just to the left of centre.

A quality solo ride into #Cheshire yesterday while everyone else was watching the #TourOfBritain. A quick coffee at The Wizard Tea Rooms after going up Artists Lane before the home stretch. 75km in glorious sunshine (remember that?) and happy in the knowledge it's pissing down at my Mum's in #Chipiona. They need it! Lovely to spend time with Peadar the #Pinarello, too. I've had this bike for over 20 years and I've no idea how old it actually is as I got it second hand from a proper racer!

Today's #ride was what Monday's would have been if I hadn't gotten double impact punctures on the #PinarelloMarvel. Not a problem on #tubeless and #OsgarTheOrro never lets me down! 55km done heading south from mine to just past #ManchesterAirport and turn for home at #Wilmslow. After Wilmslow is #Woodford where this shared path section starts and takes you all the way to #HazelGrove, near #Stockport, about 5km. Sweet! Got home just as my wife rang our son for tech support on how to tether her phone to her Chromebook while she was at her brother's. Invoice is emailed!

A white bike lay on its side on a tarmac path, which is heading straight forward. The path is flanked on both sides by trees and shrubs.

Sneaked out yesterday afternoon for @ 40km doing some local lumps. Just about 10km from home you really get into the hills if you head north and/or east. Lovely countryside, hard as nails, but so rewarding. This photo is from the top of #Lydgate near #Mossley. It's a three step climb, short but very steep on the steps! I love riding my #bike .

Another excellent Dukinfield CC ride, this time to Farm Made Tearooms at #Rainow, with Jane and Paul Nyland, Danny and Emidio. The cafe is in a glorious setting, near the bottom of #BlazeHill. And you get the chance to see #WhiteNancy . The only drawback today was my chain snapping at the bottom of the Climb Of Doom, a.k.a. #Chadkirk. I managed to get that sorted but walked up the climb as I didn't want to risk using my excessive wattage again in case I snapped it one more time. So that's a new chain and cassette I'll be ordering..

About 10km from home on Sunday (I'd done @ 93km around the #Cheshire lanes by this point) I nabbed a shot of the Phil Foden mural on the corner of Wycliffe Street and George's Road in Stockport. For scale, I rested Osgar the Orro by our Phil. Phil is #47 for Manchester City FC and a #Stockport lad. He's a top, top, top player. Mural by MANCHESTER MURALS (so it says!). #PhilFoden #ManCityFC #ManchesterMurals #Duks #DukinfieldCC #Dukinfield #Hyde #Denton #Audenshaw #AshtonUnderLyne #Droylsden #Tameside #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome

A 5 metre high by 3 metre wide black and white mural of Phil Foden (Manchester City player and a Stockport lad) on a red brick wall. Leaning by the bottom right corner of the mural is a white bike with black wheels, drivetrain, saddle and handlebars. In the very top left of the mural, in orange, it states "MANCHESTER MURALS".

Dziwny to dzień był. Nastawiłem się na jakąs 💯+ km ale szybko zweryfikowałem plany z powodu #wmordewind

Grypa swoje zrobiła, więc muszę uzbroić się w cierpliwość i dać sobie czas na powrót do formy.

Pro #peloton back in Europe for another season. #StradeBianche yesterday. First stage of #ParisNice today. Loads of cobbled classics ahead. Was on my trainer today with thoughts of green summer riding playing in my head. 52+ years on the odometer, but legs today like a 51.9999 yo! #CyclingIsLife #Cycling

Just Dougie and I today. Only 54km but just short of 1000m of climbing! A great, local route taking in #TunsteadLane, #Diggle, #GrainsRoad and #Scouthead. Pretty chuffed that I can still get up the 15%ers (and steeper!) in my 60th year and the @orrobikes Terra C helped, too. It's an amazing machine. #Duks #DukinfieldCC #Dukinfield #Hyde #Denton #Audenshaw #AshtonUnderLyne #Droylsden #Tameside #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome

Dougie (rear), and me, having a rest after another slow climb out of Diggle. I have an orange helmet, poking out is the peak of my cap with ITALIA printed on it. I have on large, blue sunglasses and a gold coloured, brown trimmed, Dukinfield CC jersey. Dougie has the same except for a yellow cap and a blue gilet over his Duks jersey. From bottom left to top-middle is the road heading towards Huddersfield. There is a grey car parked on the right of view, with a black car in front of it. Brush and moorland are on the left and right of the road.Looking out towards Greenfield from the top of the steep Tunstead Lane! There are four horses in a field, hills in the background and lots of local stone houses in the centre of the view. The sky is overcast and grey.Looking down towards Diggle from the top of the steep Huddersfield Road! The road heads down from the bottom left to mid-right of shot. There is a 30 mph sign to the far right. Hills and brown/green moorland are in the background. The sky is overcast and grey.

It is way more windy outside than I desire. I don't like riding my bike in the wind, but I will, cause I can't not ride! Riding is life!!!!

I did my longest ride since the end of October earlier. 40km round trip. The halfway point was the top of what we call "The Horse and Jockey" climb, which is the road that goes from #Uppermill to the junction with the A62, #Oldham #Huddersfield road. That's where this image was taken. I put the 40mm #Continental tyres back on my #OrroTerraCHydro the other week and they still sing! It was great to get out with two riding buddies, Lauren and Dougie, too. 2 hours of fun and not too many cars about. Love it! #OrroBikes #BikeTooter #biketoot #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling

An image of a bicycle propped up by the side of the road. In the distance are hills, taking up the top half of the image, and hazy, blue sky. In the centre of the image, going left to right, is a two lane road heading down to the right. The bike is in the bottom of the image, pointing forward in a 2 o'clock position. The bike is cream coloured, with black handlebars, wheels, saddle, chainset and mudguards. On the bike's downtube is an orange bidon.
