This makes us sad. So many good things for #ridewithaview started at @1ookmumnohands, from our @bffworld adventures to meeting @jetmcdonald. Let's hope this isn't the end and turns out just to be a pause.
So we're not on twitter very often. We've just closed down both the cafe and the workshop on Old St. Thanks to everyone for the good times , we love ya😘. A bit more over on Instagram- https://t.co/asmiQ32v9X

Never mind what the speechmakers tell us about climate change. What are the people by the side of road saying - the length of Britain? And can you guess what the common theme is? My piece @BylineTimes #ClimateCrisis #cycling @Chris_Boardman @carltonreid @jackthurston @cyclingplus
🧊A Melting World 🚴♂️Cycling from Bristol to #COP26 with a Block of Ice @jetmcdonald made an epic dash across Britain to emphasise how time is running out for action over climate change. How did the people he met on the way react? https://t.co/OcQcTirwPK

Jet made it to the #COP26 with the iceblock. Well done @jetmcdonald Time is running out and we can all join the revolution 🚴🏻♀️🚴🏼to save our beautiful planet.
There’s a feature on my arrival in Glasgow @COP26 towing an iceblock from Bristol on @itvwestcountry - TV and online at 6pm tonight. In the meantime here’s the original feature from one week ago. Seems a lifetime away ! #actnow #timeisrunningout #iceride

I want to do more touring, but my wheels are flexing under load, so I'm looking to either build or buy some strong wheels. Normal QR, 11spd SRAM, 6-bolt disc, 32 or 36h. I just can't seem to find anything that fits the bill - even at higher prices. Is it possible for ~£350?

More people need to see this, more people need to share this, more people need to *do* this.

250 whole kilometres? I love how the gif appears to show someone slowly cycling towards a wall. It's like some kind of subtle message...
We want cycling 🚴♀️ and walking 🚶♂️ to be the natural choice for shorter journeys, or as part of a longer journey #WorldEnvironmentDay #BeatAirPollution We’ve delivered: ✅ 250 km of segregated cycle routes ✅ 300 km of new routes for cyclists and pedestrians

Walking up York Way in London today and saw a woman pedalling so fast downhill with a huge grin on her face. Thank you for brightening my morning.

On rainy days like these, it's important to post a photo that alludes to there being a light at the end of the tunnel... #ridewithaview

After more than a year riding 40c super-nobbly off road tyres, switching to slicks (even 30c slicks), I felt like a rocket yesterday. The constant stopping because I was convinced I had a puncture didn't help though.

Who would you ad to @carltonreid Transportation Cycling Hall of Fame?
Who belongs in the Transportation Cycling Hall of Fame? By me, in the @guardian

Is there anyone out there who has given up their car and used a bike to get around instead? We'd love to start putting stories on the site about how a bike helped change your life in some way, so please get in touch! RTs would be much appreciated too!

There are few things I love more than cycling being something that’s simply natural and normal... https://t.co/tfVd0n4Nf2

Julie Anne Genter, who was 42 weeks pregnant, said the ride was mostly downhill

*sigh* Clearly these punctures are the result of a defect in the tyre. I must return them to the shop immediately. (actual story a bike shop mechanic told me)
