Great day at Brands Hatch doing race instruction on the R1. An amazing bike that allows me to instruct with total confidence. Big thanks to the team that help and make it possible for me to ride. #BrandsHatch #BMCRC #yamaha

An honour and total privilege to be mentoring at the School Games National Finals, held within the Loughborough Uni campus. Part of a TAP pairing (myself and Urša Terdin) working with U19 Women’s Cricket. Watching some great cricket matches in 20 over format.

Tomorrow morning sees the journey of the Paralympic Flame from U.K. to France. I will be part of a team to hand the Flame over to our French counterparts at the midway point of the channel tunnel. Honoured to be chosen. #Paris2024 #Paralympics

Always interesting getting on a boat when you are paralysed.

In case you have a couple of hours free - seems I can talk for a long time despite being told it’s a short podcast!

Great to visit places from my childhood. This is where was first put in an Optimist and set off on my own.

A very enjoyable talk and workshop for a great group of people. Think you might be able to guess where it took part!! Pity it was a day only visit on the train, could have done with seeing more of the city. @LEGO_Group

[Talan Skeels-Piggins PLY @talansp]

Oh yes. Everything is awesome….and Big! I am just a ‘smidge’ excited about being here. Looking forward to giving a talk tomorrow. @LEGO_Group

Very excited to see my new Rolly Tasker sails on MIURA. Looking forward to a first sail soon. @RollyTasker

I like to have challenges to work towards. Some are a bit more scary than others. This one is definitely a tricky one!! https://t.co/sPf75nslOg

Really enjoyable talk @MoJGovUK for #JusticeDigital today. Don’t often go to Westminster, so it was a treat to visit the QEII building and soak up the views as well.

We were delighted to welcome Talan Skeels-Piggins, a double World Champion, European Champion and Winter Paralympian, to talk to pupils from Years 7 to 13 this afternoon about resilience and overcoming adversity. It was a truly inspirational talk sharing Talan's own journey of recovery, acceptance and determination to succeed. #itstheclimb @talansp
