A bike fit isn’t optional. Trust me – it’s the difference between finishing and not finishing.

I learned that the hard way in Greece. Don’t make the same mistake.

Before any decent riding effort, get a bike fit. Full stop.

Huge thanks to @activ_cycles in Ashford, Kent for supporting me before i ride around the world. If you’re looking for a bike fit, these are your guys. And a lot cheaper than London.

Usually I ain’t a Kent boy, bit too hilly for me, but cycling from Ashford to Canterbury with the boys from @activ_cycles actually wasn’t too bad. Sidekick @herculesnbruce was there to supervise.

Proper good day out to be fair, maybe more Kent rides pending… we’ll see 👀

Weapon of choice, @pearsoncycles On&On Race paired with VEL 85/60s. Surprisingly naughty combo for gravel 🫣

Our crowdfunder ends at midnight tonight (Sunday). Here’s a short teaser from One Ride at a Time — a film documenting a 3,000km / 30,000m cycling journey through Morocco, Spain, and Portugal.

It’s about landscapes, the people I meet along the way, and opening up conversations around mental health — with the aim to inspire through movement, connection, and story.

The project doesn’t stop at the film. It will grow into screenings, talks, AV exhibitions, and community cycling projects.

Thank you to everyone who has supported so far — it genuinely means a lot.

If you’ve been following the journey and want to be part of it, now’s the time.

On the move again yesterday towards Tangier. 246km/153miles and 2,000+metres elevation left to complete the Moroccon section of #onerideatatime before heading to Spain then Portugal, to take on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela.

The Bab Boujloud (Blue Gate), built in 1913 (110+ years old), is the iconic entrance to Fes’ medina—marking the gateway into the old city.

This day had new challeges, morning heat and a thunder storm...

What a ride it’s been so far…
Agadir → Essaouira → Marrakesh → High Atlas Mountains → Dades Valley → Fes

~1,800 km covered
⛰ ~20,000 m + climbed
⏱ 80+ hours in the saddle
🎥 30+ hours of filming

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
