LCR on Eric Granado's MotoE crash: Following today’s crash, Eric Granado has suffered a fracture of the right tibia. He will remain under observation for the next 24 hours and is scheduled to travel to Barcelona, where he will undergo surgery next Tuesday at the Hospital Universitari Dexeus.

This is not a drill! Just a handful of hours ago Shell uploaded a beautiful, official print of probably the greatest rallying film. I wrote about this film over four years ago, and now you can see & hear it like never before. Enjoy! racingdaydreams.com/notte-blu-mo... youtu.be/v_LFGhKn5Qc

Apparently this is happening in 2026 🤠🤠🤠 www.motorsportmagazine.com/articles/mot...

Hello Bluesky, we are super late to the party but we are here! We are an independent bookshop in Cathays, Cardiff and we will be posting about books, book events and more!

Smile it's Saturday 😃 have a wonderful weekend everyone from Bonnie❤️🐾🐶 #westie #dogsofbluesky

Today is #nationaldogmomday 🐾🐶❤️ #nationaldogmumday

The most insane transit project in this country is the 5.2-mile extension of St. Louis's MetroLink Red Line to the MidAmerica airport, which sees less than 1,500 passengers a day. But it only costs $98 million so I guess it's worth it?

Dorna are teasing 'an announcement regarding a future project uniting the most exciting sport on Earth and one of the top lifestyle brands in North America' which is almost certainly Harley Davidson. Bagger races coming soon?

A cracking start to this year's NW200, a big marker laid down by Michael Dunlop, and still plenty more action to come on Saturday! www.the-race.com/motorcycle-r...

This photo (Chile 1997) has been hiding! I just found it in a box, out of place! That's some bloke & two great bikes. Libby on the left of course & yep, I was squeezing the last possible miles out of my rear tyre! Birgit's tough little 1972 BMW R60/5 Sir Henry the Hybrid to the right. #motosky

Bonnie has that Friday feeling! 🥳 have a super day everyone 🐾🐶❤️ #Westie #dogsofbluesky

Well. I'm no longer a Spotify subscriber. Took me far too long to stop being a consumer of a company that doesn't pay artists fairly. I only want my music on platforms that are supporting artists. Places like Deezer and Bandcamp. Time to pivot. #indiepop #indiemusic #spotify #canadianmusic 🎧🌈🇨🇦

Dean Harrison just casually doing 208.4 mph (335.4 kph) through the speed trap at the NW200. On a Fireblade. On this road. 🤯

Deal done on this beauty. She's off! My final thoughts, and some problem diagnosis, in a future weekly fleet update. Haven't finished filming that yet as it's only Thursday.

And again down to 100ft out over the North Atlantic and then his mate joins in…

Anybody got any idea what’s happening here. They were at 175ft just before this screenshot was taken.

Eveyone & their brother is using ChatGPT to avoid doing the reading/homework & we’re all going to suffer bc of it.

Eighty years ago, enemies laid down their arms. Since then, we, Europeans, have built something extraordinary: a Union of peace, democracy, and solidarity. An anchor of stability. Our Union was born as a peace project, and it remains one today.

As a German I will forever be grateful to all who fought for the liberation of Europe. But as a historian I am looking at front pages today and must wonder: What is the point of remembering #VEDay 80 years on, what is the point of our thanks, when we are failing to protect the sacrifices made? 🧵

This extraordinary image was reproduced in the school history books of my childhood and I remember how powerful I found it then. The context has changed but the message is just as powerful today

Pedro Acosta passed fit to ride this weekend at the Le Mans #MotoGP round. Had a medical exam this morning.

I've always liked this shot. Not only because Birgit is riding in it 😊but because we were up in the Cordillera Blanca in Peru. As you can see, it's beautiful up there in the thinner air of the mountains. With so little pollution it was like riding surrounded by a world in full focus. #motosky

It’s why the European Union was created. 🇪🇺

My Top 50 singles from The #1C000LEST Hit List - Day 38 Last Train to Trancentral (Live from the Lost Continent) - The KLF - 11 pts👍 (1991) UK #2 single - I'm proud that the KLF made great hits with our Cheetah MS6 analogue multi-timbral programmable synthesizers ❤️ "This is what KLF is about..."

Le Mans #MotoGP preview is up: - Why Le Mans is the event of the year - Why the racing is usually pretty good - Will Ducati continue to dominate? - Hope for the French fans, and it's justified this time - A KTM revival on the cards? motomatters.com/analysis/202...

Happy #ThrowbackThursday everyone from Bonnie (at 15 weeks old). Have a fantastic day everyone 🐶❤️🐾 #westie #dogsofbluesky

A 🧵 … 8 May 2025. The early morning drive back from Zell am See to Munich Airport on every @wwiimuseum.bsky.social #easycompany tour always is a time of reflection for me. The one this morning even more so than usual. 1/

Somkiat Chantra will sit out the French round of #MotoGP at Le Mans this weekend. After a post-surgery check up before travelling, Dr Mir recommended the LCR Honda Idemitsu rider skip the weekend to allow him to recover full strength before he starts racing again.

Just finished our Tuscany workshop yesterday, and it was amazing! Amazing group, super co-guide @alexwides.bsky.social , and a bunch of misty mornings over the rolling hills… More images to come! For now I’m staying few days in Italy ✌️ #photography #landscape #art #nature #tuscany

Every time I read "conclave" I hear it in my head sung like "Convoy" the 50 year old novelty song. I share this only in the hope of making it stop.

This is the 1973 film "Streets of Ulster" as screened for the first time in almost 50 years the other evening. WARNING: It is raw, contains scenes of violence and discussion of death. It is a visceral watch that captures the heart of the conflict.

Happy #wontlookwednesday everyone from Bonnie. Have a wonderful day 🐾❤️🐶 #westie #dogsofbluesky

Run Toto Run! #TerrierTuesday #cairnterrier #dogsofbluesky

No border in the Irish Sea yet I have more admin to send stuff to NI, which is in the UK, because of Brexit. Marvellous. They call it the Windsor Framework because Utter Sh*tshow doesn't have the necessary gravitas.

Honestly it sounds like such a cliche thing to say, but for everyone learning to ride a motorcycle, the only thing that should be imparted is this: Ride your own ride. You'll get there when you mean to, trust me.

I had to reach back for some color… Sunrise. Cascade foothills. October 2024. 🧡❤️

Can you tell which is the sensitive, clean, sophisticated one…and which is the aloof, dirty mud digger? #terriertuesday #cairnterrier

Mango wishes all his Bluesky friends a terrific #TongueOutTuesday and #TerrierTuesfay! 😛❤️🥰 #Dogsofbluesky #Dogs #Yorkie
