We woke this morning to find all 14 of our Ribble Endurance SLR bikes stolen from our mechanic's van. We are hoping to find a solution to enable us to start in Wrexham today. Stolen from Macdonald Hill Valley Hotel, Whitchurch, Shropshire.

Man, 2023 really has had a sting in its tail huh? 😢 RIP Andre Braugher, a seriously funny man 🙏
Some of Andre Braugher’s best moments on ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ have been put together to honor him after his tragic passing.

A HUGE thank you to all of the riders who joined The Tour of the TAP cycling on one or two days and took on the incredible challenge of helping to fundraise and supporting the riders 👏 #thetourofthetap #bloodcancerawarenessmonth

The aim of Jumbo Visma is to become the first (male) team to win all three Grand Tours in a single season. They couldn't have envisaged that the man who has helped them win their last 6 would now be in the leader's jersey, and in with a great chance of winning it himself. It's a conundrum, but I hope they think about their decisions from a human point of view as much as a ticking the box point of view. Sepp strikes me as the sort of person who wouldn't have a gripe with anyone if he doesn't win, even if he has the legs to. On the other side, I think there would be a seismic shift in public perception of the team if Sepp didn't win this race, if he has the legs to do so. What greater gift to give your most valued helper than help him to a deserved win of a Grand Tour of his own? And what better way to ensure his continued dedication to the team's future goals?

On Wednesday I lost my beautiful daughter at Bournemouth beach. Sunnah was so well loved and well liked. No parent should ever have to go through what her dad and I are going through. We love you so much baby girl 💕
