We are so thankful, moved and proud of Fin’s fellow cyclists today for making a stand at the Tour of Lombardy. Things need to change and no other family should ever receive the phone call we received on 14th Aug. We sincerely hope the UCI are listening and changes will be made.

Very intrigued by what on earth was going on at the Auch Estate near Tyndrum with a helicopter ferrying something (multiple times in the time I was there) up to the forest high above in a scarily swinging heavy bucket!! Glad it didn’t fall off as I pedalled underneath. 😬

New: Nigel Farage’s speech to the Reform UK conference has been delayed because of security concerns, a Reform UK source has told me. A sniffer dog was called in to check the area around the stage after what was described as an incursion involving a non-party banner appearing near the stage shortly before Richard Tice’s speech, my source tells me

A brilliant ride from @OscarOnley sees him take second place on stage nine at #LaVuelta26 after a great battle with Mas 👏 He takes time out of some key GC rivals and moves up to fourth overall.

Ironman Leeds swim cancelled tomorrow due to Blue green algae (rises due to heat) That’s the 6th @IRONMANtri race alone this year that’s been affected due to extreme heat, either cancelled or changed. Seems this will become much more common.. #climatechange

Heartbroken for Sepp Kuss. Can he bring it back? Has he got a mechanical? Ahh! 😭

Interviewed Penelope Keith when I worked in Inverness at MFR; a really lovely and funny lady. Rest in peace.

Following Oscar Onley's crash on stage six of the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, further medical investigations have confirmed a significant shoulder injury. Unfortunately, this means Oscar will be unable to compete in this year’s Tour de France. netcompanyineos.com/news/osc…
