@caitlinmoran I think there are two types that of men; the ones who wanted to be James Bond when they were a boy and those who wanted to be The Doctor. (I’m excluding those who wanted to be a footballer as that’s outside my orbit)

Men of Twitter: classically, in the most reductive terms, men are supposed to be either Jocks, Nerds, or Patriarchs: but who were YOUR unlikely role-models when you were teenage? Who did YOU use as inspo? the odder and more niche the better

@BritishCycling @AnnaKay_3 Never mind the cyclo-cross season, it’s still very much feeling unbelievably cross about your shilling for shell season.

When I joined British Cycling for a racing license, it wasn’t for motorsport. What a tin-eared decision. Are any BC members celebrating this? #britishcycling #notrenewing

.@Chris_Boardman says it was "unfortunate" that the latest DfT data showed a decrease in cycling because it was shown in isolation. Car usage was down 23% and train use 47%; in fact, active travel was the most robust of all modes in that period. @activetraveleng @TransportCttee
