If you buy this then on 25 December David Lappartient will climb down your chimney and personally check the length of your socks. It's what every kid dreams of.

I spend a fair bit of time telling students sports journalism isn't just match reports, so I'm glad to have a new bonkers example to use. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cz...

I had fun on Saeed and Jason's podcast the other week talking about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, hunting centaurs and ice cream. If you're keen to know what creature I'd select as my battle companion. Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/5Gam... WARNING: There is no cycling chat.

Ned's bang on here.

Stage 18 has been shortened from the 27.2km ITT to the much shorter 12.2km due to worries around rider safety with the potential of more protests. On the racing side, Vingegaard 🇩🇰 and Almeida 🇵🇹 looked to have poorer day yesterday but Pidcock 🇬🇧 and Hindley 🇦🇺 will, however, likely lose time today.

Kinda sucks that it's come to this but I think @cmbreports.bsky.social is on the money here. The UCI need to remember the distance between farce and tragedy is very very small.

Hope he makes a full recovery, this sounds really nasty. www.instagram.com/p/DN5kbeDEVh...

Presumably it will fight Godzilla in The Channel on bonfire night.

Sick burn.

The plot thickens.

Now he passes Cavendish with 21 wins - 14 left to go.

Can the Kevin Vauquelin fans not get a better chant than "KEEEE-VIN!" C'mon dudes, sort it out. #tourdefrance #tour25

Tadej Pogačar's Tour de France stage win total is now even with Mark Cavendish at the same age. Plus, Pogačar has several more chances to win at this Tour. That covers the most dominant period of Cav's career, he never again won five stages at one Tour after the age of 26. 🧵 1/X

There is absolutely no way that dude is All About Desserts.

Nice stat.

To all those concerned that the Tour de France as a contest is already effectively over you should know that Morden, south London, has everything you're looking for. #tourdefrance #tour25

I'm absolutely sure this'll be totally fine and not further hasten the degrading of our information ecosystem/society in any way. techcrunch.com/2025/07/09/p...

Interesting to note Simon Yates has already put around six minutes into Adam Yates to take a commanding lead in the Unofficial Best Yates competition. IYKYK #tourdefrance #tour25

Big win for Italian clothing brand Santini at the Tour today as Pog seemed intent on wearing one of their skin suits for the TT over that of his team's kit supplier Pissei. No, I'd not heard of them either. #tourdefrance #tour25

With three separate crashes, today is a great example of just why all our pre-race speculation is so prone to being wrong. In the battle of cyclists v. road, French tarmac remains undefeated. #tourdefrance #tour25

Happy Tour de France day to all who celebrate! #tourdefrance #tour25

Dave Brailsford is back at Ineos Grenadiers and, I assume, his first job was designing this jersey on a Friday afternoon after a couple of bottles of rosé.🤮 #tourdefrance #tour25

Matt Stephens and Rob Hatch wittering on about potatoes on the Criterium du Dauphine coverage just now, my wife: "What nonsense is he on about?" Me: "Bike racing." This nonsense is a fundamental part of the sport.

Been reading a few things about Simon Yates' #giroditalia win and the Carapaz-Del Torro stand off. It's fair to say they, Del Torro especially, made a tactical error in not chasing together and that it was extremely costly. However, this is how races are won all the time. 🧵1/?

Been back on the tools today for @cyclingweekly.com thinking probably a bit too long and hard about Simon Yates. www.cyclingweekly.com/racing/giro-...

🚨Giro d'Italia stat attack🚨 Simon Yates (@teamvismleaseabike.com), the strongest GC rider at the #giroditalia today, is now on the verge of setting a new record for the "Simon" with the most Grand Tour wins with two. Gilberto Simoni does not count. #cycling #giro25 #bury #lancashire #britain
