Maybe the oddest cycling picture...in the world

This week we've got some really quite spectacular cycling images of Jeremy Clarkson huffing a dart while riding a Lotus time trial bike in a leather jacket and jeans, which just about pips Orlando Bloom's get up.

However, undoubtedly the best tweet of the week is the one from Deceuninck - Quick-Step telling us that Fabio Jakobsen had been brought out of his coma by doctors. A crucial step in what will be a long recovery. We wish Fabio and those close to him well, forza Fabio!

Hi. I'm Cycling Weekly's Weekend Editor. I like writing offbeat features and eating too much bread when working out on the road at bike races.


Before joining Cycling Weekly I worked at The Tab and I've also written for Vice, Time Out, and worked freelance for The Telegraph (I know, but I needed the money at the time so let me live).


I also worked for ITV Cycling between 2011-2018 on their Tour de France and Vuelta a España coverage. Sometimes I'd be helping the producers make the programme and other times I'd be getting the lunches. Just in case you were wondering - Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen had the same ham sandwich every day, it was great.
