I know it’s logistically a lot more difficult to plan and there is more involved...but £60+ for a sprint.... versus £12 for a TT. Triathlon is so expensive now...

Truly disappointing tweet from you Nikki and highlights everything that's wrong with the mentality in Cycling. Why isn't cycling allowed to innovate? No one's calling for it to reply RRing/CX. It's simply another avenue. Huge respect to @rophow and co for making the move. (1)
Is this for real? Seriously this is not what professional cycling is about. I was inspired to race after watching my hero’s push themselves to their limits outdoors on the road, in the woods, in a field. I don’t think I would have felt the same sat watching a screen of avatars 😒

What we've seen from Mathieu and Wout in the Spring Classics is such a great advertising for cyclocross. There's no reason to leave after the youth categories. It's not impossible to combine road and CX at the highest level, and it will make you a better rider.

I may have taken the win this morning with a 19:29 but ride of the day has to go to young @BeldonAlex. He did a 22:48 on an average day and an average course. He’s only 13. Aged 13 and knocking out a 22. Absolute madness. – at Grimsby, England

How does triathlon expect to grow in the UK when our own federation doesn’t push the exceptionally talented athletes we have...it’s not all about the “Olympic” distance.... grow all distances, grow the sport surely?!?! #frustrating
Replying to @BritTri @BBCSport
Well thanks for the mention but it was so small and buried in an article that even I missed it, so what hope have the @BBCSport got of picking it up? 🤷🏼‍♀️

For my Ironman friends please read this and if you like what you see please share. Kona is a great race but the current format promotes unintentional cheating which could be reduced with a few simple steps as outlined in this... teamemj.com/ironman-world-ch…

If anyone has a @CostaCoffee card you might want to change your password...people are getting hacked and my points have been taken. Pretty sure @CostaCoffee don’t store details other than name, but still worth doing. Oh and @CostaCoffee coffee are just ignoring it....#poorform
