@Pret I bought a triple bacon sandwich this AM and less than half of the way through, the bacon just stopped. 🥺
I’m still struggling to understand. How can I ever trust again?
@martingough22 A useful part of the selection process. In 8s it is less effective (many moving parts), but it demonstrates the negative impact of weight and if one is detrimental to the boats speed in other ways.
It pressures “erg monkeys” to focus on improving technically to get selected.
So HS2 will not go to Manchestwr
- this will be announced tomorrow in Manc
-in a disused railway station
-on a train strike day
-at a Tory conference
-when most delegates have already gone back to London
If it was in a script for a TV show it would not have not made the cut
Throwback to 2014 with @petosagan in white(!) for stage 2 of tdf. My first time seeing the peloton in real life and I desperately snapped my heroes.
Today Sagan retires from road racing. Thanks for all the epic moments! Becoming world champ in US was favourite. #Superstar
@AtlantaRouleur One of the greatest moments in a race ever. After a terrible year, he won a great worlds in style. He then took off his helmet, let down his hair and asked for world peace.
@Andrew_Adonis A lot of comments that it is because of the H&S regulations in U.K.
The main factor is long-term planning and, secondly, ability to “make it happen” (no one says no to a compulsory purchase in China).
These both come at a price, but we may not have it quite right in U.K.
