I’ve watched Twitter dwindle in terms of its attractiveness as a user… we all have. #Bluesky seems to be the first credible alternative I’ve seen, so I’m migrating across. Be good to see my Twitter friends there. I’m @picollard.bsky.social

Great to be back at the velodrome with Angus and the Portishead Cycling Club last night… and even though I wasn’t taking part on this occasion, it was no less fun being a spectator.

I don’t mean to alarm anyone… but I seem to have “gone off” tea. Yes, tea. ☕️ I think a visit to the doctor might be in order.

What’s that, Angus? You need new tyres after riding the second half of yesterday’s Audax on this? Reckon there another 1,000km left in that, yet!! 😬🤣

I don’t know what The Beatles were going on about with their warm guns… happiness is definitely a clean bike (or three)
