The stand out performer from day three of the Para-cycling Track World Championships had to be Daphne Schrager.

So, Jaco van Gass came 3rd in the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games though he put down a world record time. Cundy held off Blaine Hunt but reigning Paralympic champion and Jody’s total nemesis, Alfonso Cabello Llamas (ESP) isn’t here.

Ravemen TR30M rear light review - does a rear light really need 360 degree visibility?

Ravemen TR30M rear light: lighting spec and brightness(Image credit: Joe Baket)The TR30M has a predictable 30 lumen output, which is more than enough for commuters on street lit roads or some extra visibility on country lanes. Perhaps the best feature of this light, though, is the 360 degree viewing angle which is particularly good for riding in traffic. Ravemen TR30M rear light: mounting and build quality(Image credit: Joe Baket)The versatility of mounting options is a strong point for the TR30M. Ravemen TR30M rear light: value and conclusion(Image credit: Joe Baket)The light market is a tough place to get noticed with so many strong options from the likes of Cateye, Lezyne and many other brands too. That said, for commuters who would value the unrivalled viewing angles, the Ravemen TR30M is still a competitive option.

Shimano RX8R Gravel Racing Shoes review - a race-oriented shoe with extra protection from debris

What Shimano has designed in the RX8R (and its companion the cuff-less RX801) is a gravel race shoe. Shimano RX8R: construction(Image credit: Tyler Boucher)The most notable feature of these “Rally Edition” shoes is the knitted cuff. I’ve slipped on enough coffee-shop floors in road shoes to seriously consider wearing lightweight off-road shoes like these for any application outside of road racing. Adidas makes a gravel specific shoe that also features a cuff which they call the Gravel Cycling Shoe.
