How is it possible for @AvantiWestCoast to be this bad???? Another train cancelled so the next one will be carnage. How can it be this bad? Virgin had three trains an hour solidly for years. Absolute morons.


Shows how low @BBCRadio4 had to scrape the barrel to get anyone in Tory party to comment on support for @trussliz when @LauraEvansTeam makes it onto the 6pm news. Absolute sideshow and she even managed to get a TTOIT style ‘at the moment’ in there to underline her incompetence 🤣


I don't experience it much nowadays but the customer service @sigmasports have consistently provided me over the last year has been outstanding. Communication (quality + speed of response) has been fantastic. Thanks!

1:50 in: This is what I want for my kids. How about you?

Due to the covid-19 pandemic the planet effectively shutdown, meaning our public spaces and roads became quieter almost overnight 🛣 @Chris_Boardman looks at the effects of cycling during and after the lockdown 🚴‍♂️

The Giro was supposed to start today. More importantly nine years ago today Wouter Weylandt died. I took the Maglia Rosa that day, I’ll never forget it. I wrote about it afterwards in order to make sure it existed outside my mind: chpt3.com/blogs/chttr3/w…


The new @Strava route generator needs some work. Instead of routing through nice Cheshire countryside it thinks I should go for a spin around Wythenshawe. @StravaSupport do your route suggestions come with complimentary stab vests?


A good summary of the potential for investment in *proper* cycle ways to reduce air pollution and improve health - and a fair criticism of the shonky half arsed attempts in Manchester so far... @AndyBurnhamGM theguardian.com/environment/bi…

this is the most fun thing i have seen on the web in a while remember when the web seemed like it was full of fun things like this? and maybe it still is but we've just been too inundated by all the more hellish aspects to enjoy it sigh anyway... neal.fun/deep-sea/

"Which?" have been in the news this week (reaching the BBC news homepage even), criticising Black Friday Deals, yet here they are promoting a tweet referencing some of the brands they were criticising. Why might they do that? (a short thread...)

Is Craig Joubert calling the shots at @WorldRugby nowadays? #RWC2019 #absolutejoke

Mike Evans is the most frustrating player to have on a fantasy team


BOOM. #GOPACKGO nothing better than beating the Bears at Soldier Field 😁😁 our D is legit! @ukpackers @AaronNagler


Just booked 1st anniversary night away @palehallhotel and looking forward to another great tasting menu from @Garfieldthechef


Also I have to give @AndyBurnhamGM some credit for the cycle lane improvements to Talbot and Stratford road - meaningful changes to the lanes making for a much safer cycle. Surfaces are still pretty terrible though but nice to see improvements being made.


I’m on a Northern train. It’s like stepping back into the 70s. However I have managed to get a seat unlike 50% of the other passengers so some cause for celebration. Can’t believe how bad it is. cc @AndyBurnhamGM
