Our athletes are committed to effecting change from within. That's why they're taking on big ride goals in the next 10 days to raise support and awareness for why #RepresentationMatters in #cycling. Pledge your support & read more-> https://t.co/oyeZW5nofx #BlackLivesMatter
Remember Martin Gugino, the 75-year-old victim of a police assault in Buffalo whom President Trump denounced? Gugino's lawyer, Kelly V. Zarcone, confirmed to me that he is still hospitalized with a fractured skull and unable to walk. Infuriating.
Are you a @Stanford student interested in riding bikes of any kind? We’re planning for next academic year & want to hear from you! Learn more about us at https://t.co/EtoLjXPwDM ...riders of all experience levels are welcome to join our team! No racing necessary!
@quambafu@velonews You know the mask isn’t to keep you alive, right?! It’s to protect everyone around you from you in case you’re an asymptotic carrier.
Let’s throw MTB trails on this list too! (1) uphill traffic ALWAYS has the right of way. (2) Yield to peds and horses unless told otherwise. (3) Always give the trails time to dry out after rainfall.
@chasquimom @ian_seibert816 @FrankCundiff @cosmocatalano@usacycling Cyclocross is also booming for the juniors. There are soooo many development teams with huge support and presence at the domestic UCI races. Not sure why road is struggling 🤷���️
@usacycling 👎 Look at field sizes. Juniors racing is booming whereas club collegiate is dying as is women’s racing in general. @usacycling is making racing crazy expensive by increasing demands on promoters, thus driving up the costs of race entry, esp at the collegiate level.
@ian_seibert816 @FrankCundiff @cosmocatalano@usacycling Agreed! There’s tons of support for juniors racing whereas there’s virtually no support for collegiate or amateur women. Women’s racing is dying while juniors racing is booming (look at MTB nats field sizes for data). Membership fees have already gotten out of control.
Winning an omnium is no small feat, despite how easy @Stanford Undergrad Rachel Anders makes it look. Congrats Rachel! We’re so proud of you! https://t.co/7q6fD8teiJ @usacycling@USACcollegiate@WCCCycling
Harper Powell wins Collegiate Club Cross-Country Nationals for @CUBoulder! McKenzie Steiner finishes 2nd for @usairforce and Rachel Anders @StanfordCycling in 3rd.
@iamtedking@united Not to mention the ways the ticketing agents shame you if it’s close to the weight limit. We don’t need to be scolded by #unitedairlines employees before squeezing into their sardine can of an airplane.
@sparkleaddict We’re also proud of you, Kate! You have handled a high pressure season with absolute grace and are an inspiration to us all! So much #Cardinal love 💗!
I was watching @LeTour this morning with my 5yo daughter, and she asks, “Is this race all boys?”
She then said that if @sparkleaddict was racing, she’d want her to win.
How do you explain that there’s no women’s TdF? Think representation doesn’t matter? Think ppl don’t notice?
Please share widely!
Special message for grad students: it is totally normal and not at all self-aggrandizing to self-nominate! Don't be shy; share your work. If nothing else you'll have three more people who have read your diss and will be looking out for your future work!
