Silly season is pretty much upon us, what with 95 per cent of the cycling year complete and the annual break beckoning. Usually ascetic pro cyclists now find themselves looking forward to all manner of high jinx, japes and scrapes during their time off.* 

In fairness none of that really has a bearing on this week's delve into twitterland, where it's silly / sad / ranty / life-affirming season all year round and all at once. Ergo, we're confident this week's medley of musings won't disappoint. With no further ado – unless you count the 30 words standing between you and the first tweet below, and the approximately seven seconds it takes you to read those words – let the tweets commence.

James Shrubsall

After cutting his teeth on local and national newspapers, James began at Cycling Weekly as a sub-editor in 2000 when the current office was literally all fields. 


Eventually becoming chief sub-editor, in 2016 he switched to the job of full-time writer, and covers news, racing and features.


A lifelong cyclist and cycling fan, James's racing days (and most of his fitness) are now behind him. But he still rides regularly, both on the road and on the gravelly stuff.
