reminder that JK Rowling is not just some woman with anti-trans opinions. she is an anti-trans activist. she actively uses the money brought in through Harry Potter to support and fund anti-trans policies. she intends to do the same with this new TV series. grow up and let this franchise go.

Yet another example of WCR comms being sloppy. This rider's first win in the championship and they can't even be bothered to caption it correctly. She won race 2, not race 1, I guess copy & paste is the effort level they deem appropriate. Embarrassing.

What you really need after getting a podium is the Lidl Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders making you navigate the pompoms and camel toes on the way to get your trophy. So naff.

Have they not finished yet? This racing is 💩. Ugly slow bikes, terrible racing, not even funny.

How long is this warm up lap? #baggerracing

Sorry, bagger racing. Will it be A. Bagger joy? B. Bagger shyte?

Now settling in for the Baga racing

Hate to sound like a broken record, the Sprint race MotoGP videopass commentary was poor. Missed loads of key moments, late to mention incidents, no drama, no build, sloppy.

Watching the WCR Superpole and have the rage at the terrible Videopass commentary. Inane, unhelpful, patronising in tone, hackneyed phrasing, boring men. Surely they can find a woman who's informed, excited by the racing and more relatable than these dullards?

In honour of #COTA this weekend, a pic of an interesting off licence I took on the way to the circuit a few years ago.

Following on from my rant about how poorly WCR comms/social is managed, this is where the link from Instagram about the big season kick off leads. Do better MSEG, this is a shitshow

"We don't know what you're taking about, do you like my Princess Di impression?" Says Etta Sosij, 18 months.

MotoGP back in Brazil, or "the streets of Brzzzzzzil" as Mr Bowie would say. Woohoo, crack out the Sol di Janiero and do a Samba.

Checked WSBK website to see what they were saying about the WCR season starting, and it's poor. No photos of the riders on the Riders section, 2 news stories this year, nothing for International Women's Day. Have to ask why bother. 6 rounds, under promoted, poor socials. Needs to move under MotoGP.

My wife pointed out Leonardo Dicaprio is starting to look more and more like Benny Hill and I can’t unsee it now #oscars

Terrible omission of Nancy and Lee's song "Ladybird". Much better than Sand youtu.be/yLU7cdyari4?...

Spring appears to be tiptoeing into the UK, so I've started riding to work on my new bike. One pannier with laptop, makeup bag and change of clothes and off I go. Cuts commute time almost in half, halves petrol costs and I arrive in a much better mood and feel ready to work. Ride a bike, it's good.

No such thing as a good squirrel according to my daxies

In great #InternationalWomensDay news, Kayla Yaakov has become the first woman to get a podium at the Daytona 200. She's an incredibly talented young female rider and one to watch for the future.

On #InternationalWomensDay the last thing I want is a load of emails from companies trying to get women to spend their often lower than male's salaries on shit we don't need, from collagen to snake oil skin care to try stay youthful looking for the male gaze. Fuck right off with that.

This sort of gesture, to release what many have wanted for decades and give all the proceeds to your late comrade's charity, that is friendship. fugazi.bandcamp.com/album/albini...

Would be good if the alerts from the MotoGP app were for meaningful things and not just a new selection of overpriced toot in their online store. Now muted.

How I arrived on BlueSky. On one wheel.

sorry your holiday in the legal slavery zone run by the mad kings was ruined. maybe consider cleethorpes next year?

Controversial opinion, the MotoGP tuktuk race was better than the main race. Perhaps MSEG need to add this as a support race too.

With both MotoGP and F1 due to be racing in the Middle East in April, there will be the scrambling of plan Bs from both in case the current situation doesn't resolve quickly. Most likely Imola on standby for F1 and Portimao for both. Logistics will need to be locked in very soon.

The issue is at the circuit end/Barcelona, the infrastructure needs to be changed as their use of cloud production is likely a factor in the latency. As for the app, they need to be talking to the likes of Delta3 or IMG to move to something more solid. And don't start me on the WSBK app...

MotoGP needs to sort the latency on the VideoPass as the audio is still a good few seconds behind the visual.

The start of the energy drink exit from motorsports? Let's hope so, they can take their outdated Monster Girls with them. So naff. SBK, Monster leaves Superbike and Michelin makes a request for 2027! | GPone.com share.google/avmJSa1RXLEP...

Nice to see Rossi's career change from Racer to Clippy seems to be working out for him.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10

Unfortunately Williams will keep having these issues until they get rid of the underperforming dead wood at Grove, who are rewarded for "loyalty" during the bad years by being kept on. Some areas have created a toxic blame culture to deflect scrutiny on their failings. Grove needs a clear out. Fast.

Damn you stupid rodent, I've got a new bike to ride and need better weather

‘Defecting to the reform party’ is a polite euphemism for telling guests at a dinner party that you need to go for a poo. “I’d love to hear all about your holiday in Sardinia but first I just need to defect to the reform party”

What a rancid little toad this individual is. Untrustworthy, and inept, a class signing for Reform, not that the Tories are any better

Can somebody buy Dorna a Letts 2026 pocket diary with this year's calendar in it? Or a great Social Media agency that doesn't make mistakes like this?* *Hey Dorna, call me, I can buy all these things for you, including getting you an OTT player that works and save you a ton of cash in the process.

The news that Bennetts will no longer sponsor BSB is no surprise. The WBD/TNT Sport channel repackaging (and with no rights holder OTT D2C stream option) significantly reduced the marketing asset value last year, no wonder Bennetts walked away. Hard to see where the repercussions will end with this

This is Herschel. She spent 15 minutes at the gym before deciding to switch her New Year's resolution to self acceptance. 12/10 (IG: cfsbk)

Taking a breather in the motherland has been very important, restorative and challenging. More so than ever, why do I not choose to live here?

www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/world-... Brilliant news for Chloe, a ride secured for next year, and maybe a sign of more of the established teams and sponsors stepping in to WCR. Thoroughly deserved, she's an awesome rider and a very down to earth person.

Sometimes, when I am at home without my dog, I eat some cheese - purely because I know I can do so without having to pay the "cheese tax".
