Berlin to Copenhagen completed with 689km and 30hrs of cycling (over 7 days!) Wonderful time spent with @nibor_nannerb negotiating trails, roads, and battling a (mostly) head on wind. Of course not possible without the support of @stinebrennan and @njean… instagr.am/p/CsjJE_jt-NU/

Starting point for our tour. Love Berlin. instagr.am/p/CsO6wu5rWg1/

@jackthurston @saddleblaze All three of ours had Isla bikes. Brilliant for all the reasons mentioned here. Just great bikes for kids of all ages. Sold them years later on eBay for similar price to original cost. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Time to upgrade from the balance bike… In the market for a first bike for my little boy on his 4th birthday. Any suggestions or advice? Many thanks.

A lovely course but harder than I would like on a Sunday. Three down and two do do. Thank you @nibor_nannerb for you company. Thank you @run4wales #cardiffhalf #run #superhalfs instagr.am/p/CjNf7xdjS5A/

@LucyFaulkes @rapha @London_Cycling What a great route. Will ride that when I have the opportunity.

Copenhagen half done for another year - thank you @nibor_nannerb for your company. Nice warm up for Cardiff #cphhalf #running #cph instagr.am/p/CipiCCqjtho/

@virginmedia Well I have to confess that the standard advice of rebooting modem and router solved the issue. The 404 error on the service page also resolved once your maintenance was complete. The issue was my side of the wire - will be more patient in future.

@rjeans Hi rjeans, sorry to hear our service status page was not working when you were trying to check for outages in your area. How did things go since you last posted? You may also use this number 0800 561 0061 for our updates on area issues, let us know how you get on ^AG

@virginmedia #virginmediadown looks like service status page is not working - any reports of broadband issues in KT2 area? virginmedia.com/support/help/s…

Kattegattleden - København til Göteborg 444km over 5 days. Lovely cycling (well when the wind blows in the right direction) instagr.am/p/ChDKzAHD4gH/

🎨 #OurMasterpiece What a crowd in Copenhagen😱

Copenhagen is ready. A wonderful place to start the Tour. #tdf #etape1 #cph instagr.am/p/CfdEm-BqsVF/

@timburley @GaReth_Rutter I’ve had great wheels from DCR Wheels. Great advice, service, and choice. dcrwheels.co.uk

@GaReth_Rutter Been a while since my last pair but was around £300 for Kinlin rims (XR31s), Novatec hubs, decent spokes and alloy nipples. Rim brakes tho

New beast to build. What is the cheapest way to source a decent group set and wheels? But another bike and sell the frame?

Far too hot to be running about and definitely struggled - but made it through. A lovely city. #running #lisbon #edphalfmarathonlisbon #hot #sunny instagr.am/p/CdVDmHQjd4u/

@NicholaJeans Well I was thirsty!

Man behind me on the 6.20 am flight annoyed because there’s no beer.

This week I have been mostly jogging about the lanes of East Devon. Very nice too (and hilly) #running #devon #holidays instagr.am/p/CcSWd5Qj6rd/

Nice to be able to travel again #wayhome #travel #del #doh #cph instagr.am/p/Cby8spBvYgj/

@LucyFaulkes @Grant_Colgate For what I recently acquired a Giant Defy as a good road/gravel compromise. Great spec (if you can get hold of one) and will take up to 35mm tyres for both on road and rougher tracks.

@LucyFaulkes @Grant_Colgate To answer the question why - please see rule #12 velominati.com
