It was a privilege today to be on the ACES Europe assessment panel for the candidature of Madrid for World Capital of Sport. It was an impressive presentation and Madrid is, of course, a great city - a pity it had to be done online rather than there in person!

On a ride yesterday we grabbed a takeaway coffee from one of our favourite cafés. Just love their Christmas decorations this year – swapped the tree for a bike...the cycling boom is everywhere!
Who wants to swap their tree for a bike this Christmas?

The UK subsidy scheme for electric bikes will start with trials before a wider support package in Spring 21. As European Cycling Directeur promoting ‘cycling for all’ I see this as great news
Would YOU use an electric bike to commute to work? If not, why not? #cyclingdirecteur
PUNCTURES! GRR! Having had four punctures in the past two months out cycling, some advice all those new to cycling this year:
Make sure you know how to remove your wheels and fix a puncture, and carry the tools to do it.
Look out for more of my cycling posts #cyclingdirecteur
Bike Repair Vouchers were snapped up in just a few hours - further evidence of the boom in cycling
If you know a local area where investment is delivering innovative, sustainable improvements to promote ‘cycling for all’, then I’d love to hear about it #cyclingdirecteur
@flupton Thanks Phil, appreciate your support. In my new role as European Cycling Directeur I am focusing on getting more people on their bikes but importantly providing advice and support to individuals, clubs, businesses etc around the basics of cycling for beginners.
