Bike rides are just so much fun. Tell me otherwise. Disclaimer - I may have convinced/forced Jake to do the last clip 🫠😂

Swimming is so much more than dragging yourself through floating plasters and clumps of hair, whilst staring at floor tiles, with the same song on repeat in your head, in a pool that stinks of chlorine.

It's freedom, it's the outdoors, the nature, the rivers and seas, the joy of progress in an extremely technical sport, the peacefulness, stress relief, exercise, strength and endurance and a community of absolute nutters willing to freeze their arses off.

A big thank you to Jake for pushing me to do these freezing swims when it's the last thing I want to do. My hero. And to zone3 for providing the best wetsuits (and boots and gloves), because I literally wouldn't be swimming without them.

Cycling requirements….
– corporate job you hate
– expensive hobbies to cope
– GPS addiction
– irrational hatred of headwinds
– spend 3 hours riding to eat one croissant
– say “it’s not about power” while tracking average power

You’re never just riding. You’re constantly checking over your shoulder, listening for engines, and trying to predict what every car around you might do next. And whilst I know this is a minor squeeze compared to other incidents, it’s a heart skipped a beat kind of moment wondering what could happen.
We’re all trying to get somewhere for something. But from here, a close pass or a missed glance at a junction feels a lot bigger than it does from behind a wheel.
A quick look, a little more space, and a moment of patience can make all the difference. PLEASE.
And to be clear, this is 2 lanes, and no indicator.
