"Let’s do this another way. Let's stop thinking our voice don’t matter and vote. Not just for the president...educate yourself and know who you’re voting for. And that’s how we're going to hit 'em."
@modcyclingphoto Valid points. But it’s worth noting that 1. He doesn’t have £4bn in cash to bailout the company. 2. He’s put up his personal assets (island) as collateral for the companies proposed loan. 3. They’re asking for a loan, it’s a temporary helping hand to ensure his staff have jobs.

Protect yourself and your community from coronavirus with common sense precautions: wash your hands, stay home when sick and listen to the @CDCgov and local health authorities. Save the masks for health care workers. Let’s stay calm, listen to the experts, and follow the science.
Professional sport requires a lot more than talent. It requires sacrificing 11months out of every year to put your sport before EVERYTHING else. A hugely mature decision for this guy to make. A super nice guy off the bike too, good luck to you man! Happiness comes first, always.
We’re heartbroken by the news that Sumatran rhinos in Malaysia are now extinct.
We can’t let other species follow the same fate as Iman. We must do all we can to show our outrage about what is happening to our planet. #AdoptABetterFuture.
@BritishConti @HannahFarran The main discrepancy comes when ‘big budget’ teams begin paying riders more than their worth, and sacrificing their potential development and business model because of it. It’s not about how much money a team has, it’s about how it chooses to invest it.
@BritishConti @HannahFarran Can’t be a stepping stone if teams don’t have the budget to race abroad for their riders to gain experience and exposure. There isn’t the calendar in the UK yet for it to be a true showcase of British talent. Not even taking into account riders having to work full/part time jobs.
"You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words," climate activist Greta Thunberg tells the UN. "We are in the beginning of a mass extinction and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you." https://t.co/F5Umw55Y5Y
@BritishConti There are also riders that seem to get contracts through paying their way onto teams... Kudos to Alex though, a formidable rider now, but don’t forget that teams require more than race winners these days when social media presence and commercial pressure is so prevalent.

2018 has been rad, but what’s to come in… https://t.co/Y38QGS6ks4
How this guy on my right is still without a contract for 2019 is beyond me. An absurd amount of talent in @JamesthingyShaw that has been wasted over the past two years. Dude,… https://t.co/RQMwWfjduE
