…They were “Trapped! In! Their! Homes!”
I’ll never forget. This is how junked up on petrol some people are.

I think it boils down to just cynical anti cycling people and I’m too cool for school types. Good support out today. GF bumped into a po faced academic she knows who was moaning about not being able to cross the roads etc…
It’s nice pottering about the course watching the climbs, the descents etc
It’s really nice just having no traffic. Much more peaceful
Might spray paint a t shirt for tomorrow to watch the mens race - ‘Hi mum’ or ‘Tritalk Wank’
Saw loads of Dutch on the time trail bikes riding the course.
It’s so cool how the city is shut down. I’m thoroughly enjoying it. That was a nice afternoon. Everyone entered the spirit of it - cheering on the deliveroo riders after the race had finished lol
I missed the commonwealth games in 2014 - really looking forward to seeing the elite mens tomorrow.
Very wet tonight though - could be messy
I’ll come and chib yer
Mon then bawbag🤣
I’ll steal ya whistle theen roll ya doon the hill and laff ma heed aff
40 wet corners, what could possibly go wrong😬
It’s a hit
Not much love for the course from a lot of the riders
I am so glad that these protestors are not actually being shown on tv. If it is the usual suspects, they should never been shown on tv.
It’s a bloody pain in the arse, but I do understand the reasons for it.
Hopefully this doesn’t disrupt the flow of the race too much
I’ve just Lanterne Rouge post a video on Twitter. Looks like someone has concreted his hand to the road. They’re trying to chisel it.
Protesters
Maybe I should hop on my bike and go and get some autographs
Oh! They’re on the Carron valley road. Carron valley - I’ve swim there lol
That’s a nasty bumpy stretch. The road surface is like cycling on muesli.
Not far from a beautiful descent down to Fintry - narrow B road then the climb up on the crow road. Then it’s only 10 miles into town or thereabouts
the road surface from their direction going up the crow road is an absolute minefield - so fingers crossed it’s all been resurfaced! Hurrah!!
Link?
None of your superglue nonsense in Scotland- I’m surprised he didn’t weld his hand to the road
48/49 mph on that descent
Oh they’ve turned left in Lennoxtown - coming in to the city a funny way
Right - off to go and have a look. Prob find a perch on Montrose st - the climb on the circuit
Insane speeds down Gibson st - 50mph
Looks rammed on Montrose St already
It’s great! City centre busy! Some hairy overtaking with the team cars as well!! F’ck me - they must be going about 40mph!!
