@nedboulting @neverstraysfar Playing catch-up on Giro Stages & Pods after LEJOG 'Holiday'. Loved this story so much, and is why Neverstraysfar works so well unearthing these cycling tales.

Welcome to Cornwall and the 1st morning of my LEJOG Rainforest adventure ;-) Decisions already to tackle the showery forecast. Plan to strike camp around 8am and hopefully chase the rain rather than catch it up. More interesting pics to follow...

As the waters recede on another monster flood, thousands of homes and businesses along the Severn and Wye remain dry thanks to flood defences. They work. But they’re not the answer to future flooding and are creating a false sense of security. A (long!) 🧵

@JezCox Jez. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Can relate to your message. 2023 was probably one of my best years at 53 of being consistently active & enjoyed so much of it. Had to remind myself to get out the door for a 5k easy walk this am after a bout of festive flu. Happy New Year.
