    If you’ve done it before, this must count as re-cycling. Very Green!

    Bloody cyclopaths, clogging up the roads, putting out 15 x their resting CO2. 😉

    Splendid. Should be compulsory for all those gullibles worried about carbon emissions.

    We could have the annual London to Brighton “penny farthing” race. Finishing the race should be a prerequisite before appearing on the BBC. Imagine the excitement in the broadcast as Prince Charles duels with David Attenborough to the finish.

    Enjoy the good weather (brought on, no doubt, by “climate change”). I too am off cycling.

    Enjoy a well deserved break but avoid the freewheelers.

    You have a flat tyre – probably caused by climate change – the air is running out!

    BBC News – David Attenborough to front BBC’s Extinction: The Facts based on WWF report
    https://bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-49432824
    Extinction: the Facts will go “beyond our emotions to investigate what the extinction crisis means,
    not just for the planet but for every one of us.
    World-leading scientists will explore why species are disappearing at such an alarming rate…..”

    The intrepid cyclist riding high lifts his face towards the sky
    As clouds darken wonders whether is it climate or simply weather.

    Regarding the fires in the Amazon, WUWT has a useful article:

    Just as well you are cycling. We have the silly season.

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-7386981/Worlds-solar-powered-train-line-turned-Hampshire.html

    Well, it’s just 30kW to power the lights on a short section of track. At least while the sun is up and shining brightly, but I suppose they may have some batteries.

    In 2013, EdF signed a deal with Network Rail to supply about 3.2TWh a year (a deal that might be partly behind why the railways got blacked out first).

    https://www.railwaygazette.com/news/single-view/view/network-rail-awards-10-year-electricity-supply-contract.html

    That’s about 365MW as an average (although it will be somewhat higher during rush hours and much lower overnight). Of course, solar is going to be pretty useless in the winter. But the fond idea that this is the start of solar powered rail is utterly bizarre.
