Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.

Well we do still need energy whilst we build renewabale capacity.
We need the big energy companies to invest in the transition and build the renewable capacity - not invest in expanding their fossil fuel production.
That, and the owner and 2 of his key leutenants are now resident in Monaco, so pay shockingly little tax here.
Great news on Velolife's crowd funder. Please bung in a fiver if you can and haven't already.
Have you invested any of your wealth in such endeavours, HS? It's easy enough to do if you buy the right shares or invest in the right funds.
Ineos should be using their enormous wealth to invest in a transition to clean energy, and preventing climate breakdown.
Vanity projects, greenwashing, and jollies for the boss just don't cut it.
Well we do still need energy whilst we build renewabale capacity. Perhaps the Government should tax Ineos on their 'enormous wealth' and use that money to support transition, however unfortunately they seem preoccupied with other things, shame.
What a load of rubbish. Ineos should use their wealth however they wish to. If you feel that strongly about clean energy and the climate invest your own money.
"Top prosecutor for England and Wales urges dockless hire bike users to park them consderately" (sic)
That's funny, I don't remember him telling drivers not to park on the footpath or in cycle lanes. I wonder if he drives a car? Or has ridden a bike in the last fifty years.
Can't believe anyone is signing up Cav based on performance form the last few years. Perhaps he is offering his services for free?
... shaky ground. Hur hur.
To think Bury were / are looking for a buyer, although with all the fracking up north, I suspect Ineos would have be on shaky ground.
