Enjoy the occasional life/parenting chats too π Cheers from Australia π¦πΊ

Watching cycling in black and white is now my preference... we started doing it in Milan Sanremo, and now every race gets this setting.

Alright... time for an insane Julian Alaphilippe win at Amstel Gold Race, please. Ta. Thanks.

At least Pucky won the podium beer sculling...

And I missed getting to see one of my favourite cyclocross riders, Alvarado, in the breakaway...

20.04.2025 11:19 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0So annoyed. Aussie coverage of Amstel didn't start until 37km to go - missed seeing Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado in the breakaway! Hope she got good TV time.

Also @alternativewales.bsky.social based on the fact I like their kit, Iβm now a Caernarfon Town fan. Love the pod lads, hoping to follow from the start of the season next year.

Outside of one absolute hammering early on, theyβve displayed an ability to take it right up to some of the better teams in Europe. With better depth added, this can be matched and bettered.
