Robin Williams on a bike, a ballad for Paul Seixas and lessons in bike cap dressing: this week in cycling social media

Screenshots over a scene of a bike race.

One of the biggest stories on our site this week centred on fresh furore over handlebar width. If you thought we'd rode the wave of UCI regulation-related drama, it's far from over. Trickling down from the professional peloton to smaller British races, the real pain-point seems to be arising from a lack of clarity around the rules themselves: will they be implemented to the dot or not? You can read Pat Kinsella's piece on it here.

Cycling social media is a calmer place than usual, full of nostalgic throw backs to famous bike collections and horrible commuter cycling trips. But it also turned up some gems - I think the ballad for Paul Seixas has to be the crowning glory of this week's selection.
