would guess the price of beef is going to go up soon in colombia. i’ve never seen this country look so brown. all the grass is down here dead now. wildfire alerts all over the country. paramo bérlin has burnt
We are living in times of exceptional talents. Mathieu van der Poel is perfection on a bike this #CycloCross season. Wout van Aert, Tadej Pogačar and Tom Pidcock are in the same category of rider.
I think it’s the best time to be a cycling fan and I am loving it. I don’t think we will see so many world class talents again at the same time in our lifetime.
rides without a route are great! especially when you discover that there’s a 20% hill in your way. there seems to be lots more of those in costa rica than elsewhere… for some reason they’ve built straight up. i’m also wondering about the palm forest. is it farmed or is it so regular because it’s newly planted in the past 40 years? #cycling#biketooter#velophants#travel#costarica
I was there last year when the race was part of the World Cup series. The racing was great. The speed carried by the riders through the wet and muddy woods was so impressive.
Looking ahead, we have the traditional Christmas visit to Heusden-Zolder, followed by the night race at Diegem which will be an exciting couple of festive days.

on the off chance that someone here knows… anyone know how to fix an ortlieb back roller or a shop that carries them in #costarica or the north of #panama ? cause this isn’t waterproof anymore. gonna bodge it for the minute with tape #cycling#biketooter#velophants#travel#bikepacking
what happened in the anglo countries to make so many people dislike #cycling? it’s a relatively recent thing, right? the north americans and aussies are similar (except people from the usa don’t like walking 😄) #biketooter#velophants#urbanism
full kit supermarket trip! no one has ever been able to explain to me why the shopping is so much better and cheaper in #colombia than #ecuador. completely forgot my garmin until it was too late #biketooter#cycling#velophants
I’m starting to get prepared for the three weeks of the #TourDeFrance. I’m surprised at how unusual the route is this year. The grande boucle, or great loop, is nowhere to be seen.
what do you do when your town is celebrating its 200-year anniversary in #colombia? close 100km of motorway and allow 13,000 people to ride along it... #cycling#biketooter#velophants#travel
