@Ian___Alexander Notoriously difficult, he was renowned for having a large and flexible hand span.

Great thing on Rachmaninoff on Radio 4 just now… just had a go at the first 8 bars… I see what they mean.

@Ian___Alexander All wrapped up for Christmas. Look forward to seeing it.👌

Merry Xmas from the now finished #austincooper project… Dry Martini’s all round… 🍸🍸 #mk1mini #minicooper

@Ian___Alexander Head looks clean, not so sure about pistons.

Project #AustinCooper Having a precautionary look inside our 998cc A-Series… 🧐

@Ian___Alexander Nice project, should suit Helen well.

Quick day-trip to Ghent and back to meet up with an old friend and escort it home. Haven’t seen it for 18 years. Now to finish it… #AustinCooperMk1

@2_pints @wevegotwheels Only fools think you can reduce traffic by adding more roads. Increased capacity leads to increased use. Build more cycling infrastructure to reduce traffic. It’s really that simple.

@Glos_Police It's working, plenty of vehicles are practicing how close they can get.

It's 'Close Pass Day', which is all about giving enough space when overtaking cyclists (roughly 1.5 metres). Around 100 signs are going up across the county about this and all drivers we stop today will be told why it's so important. crowd.in/vo535V #safeandsocialroads

@Ian___Alexander Freeze dried, also took the opportunity to ride mud free until? ☠️

Never ceases to amaze just how rapidly all the mud just disappears... but in a word; Cold.

@atreeon @adamtranter @Chris_Boardman We have lots of empty buses running in North Gloucestershre.

@adamtranter @Chris_Boardman In Brighton we have a lot of double decker buses that contribute to 63% of all NOx emissions in some parts of the city, unfortunately electrifying them doesn't seem possible at the moment we have some new buses that are euro 6 so should help a bit

Reading comments on @Chris_Boardman's comment piece, it's clear many people think air pollution will cease with the adoption of electric cars. This narrative, unchecked, risks locking us into the same car dominance we've experienced for the last 70 years. thetimes.co.uk/article/people…

@GlosLiveOnline Does this mean all bad driving, without prejudice, will be dealt with similarly.

Explaining "Privilege" to Cyclists. As cyclists, we all face a constant battle for acceptance on the road. We have to constantly justify our existence. We have to justify why we deserve to be on the road with other road users like motor vehicles. Like & Share if you agree.

@Ian___Alexander Upstart crow?

Eventful lunchtime ride. A (rescued fledgling) bird in-the-hand is worth a take-out coffee in the bush (of a disused Railway line)

@Ian___Alexander nice shoes!

Racecourse Hill has been well and truly scraped... ⛏

@mikedswinford That's amazing, which part of the hill is this from?

If you look carefully enough. You can just make out the M48 all the way from cleeve hill.

@Ian___Alexander Is that the Bourton line?

Fantastic easterly gravel adventure again today, intersecting Dr.Beeching and Mr.Marples shameful legacy...

@2_pints I've never seen so many family groups out being active. On my usual quiet running routes I regularly meet people. Also encountered lots of cyclists round Brendon hill yesterday, combined with a run/scoot from Northway when my freehub broke🙃

Riding today matches lots of reports on here Quiet roads are transforming the cycling experience Loads more apparently less regular riders including families out Of the few drivers out too many still don't get safe passing distances or speeds despite no other motor traffic around

@GlosLiveOnline Sad to see this. Hope this isn't a sign of what is to come.

Vandals in a car have driven over Pittville Park, pulling doughnuts and churning up the grass gloucestershirelive.co.uk/news/cheltenha…

@GlosRoads Stanway hill is closed. Surely this should be on your road closures!

@Ian___Alexander Bit of TLC goes from rusty to trusty🙃

Shut the door of my van a bit too briskly today and it goes from being just an old van, to now being a rusty old van... 🙁

You’ve probably seen it already, but worth watching if not. *This* is what a great man looks like.
