Tweets of the week: The real identity of the Omi Opi sign waver, when nature calls, setting an example to the kids and footballers done good

As summer gradually draws to an end, so does the 2022 cycling season. The final Grand Tour of the season, the Vuelta a España, has been and gone and all eyes turn to the World Championships coming up in Australia and races like Il Lombardia.

Along with the cycling season gradually drawing to a close comes long dark nights and colder mornings, although fear not. Tweets of the week is here. 

We’re here to cheer you up, lift your spirits and provide you with some of the best content in the world of cycling Twitter over the last seven days.

Happy reading.
