me seeing nibali get taken out by a spectator on alpe d'huez at the 2018 tour de france

Such a massive shame to see Flanders Baloise disappear at the end of 2026, a cornerstone in Flemish rider development. 😭

The internet gods have blessed my little UK village with some brand-new fibernet. LRCP is about to enter its golden era. 🔥

What's the actual story behind Merckx' non-participation at the Tour de France 1973? I've read so many different angles, from a focus on the Vuelta-Giro double, to being pressured by ASO not to ride the race due to safety concerns... Feed me the actual truth. 💬

They could create a Reality TV series out of the presidential elections of the Slovenian cycling federation.

Tour de France 1973 on Pro Cycling Manager 25. 👴 Gotta say, feels a bit weird.

In the latest UCI Press Release, the UCI praises themselves on the implementation of the Yellow Card System. 🟨 Reality is, the reason only 1 rider has received a suspension over the last 13 months, is not because of the effectiveness of the system, but because the treshold for...

Stunning victory by Tobias Lund Andresen at #CEGORR! 💥 Not an easy ride either, having to close gaps himself in the last 5 KMs, but having enough left to beat Brennan at the finish. 💪 Definitely a step up from last year from Tobias. 📈

Just watched the finale of the #AlulaTour, with a nice victory by Jan Christen, smartly using the Shimano car draft to attack. But most notably, a superb ride by both Byron Munton & Stefan de Bod for the Modern Adventure ProTeam. 💪

Cycling needs more confident celebrations like Remco hanging up the phone, Christen channeling Batman villain Bane, Wout’s wings and Cavendish’ glasses. #AlulaTour

Dominant debut to the season by Ally Wollaston. 💪 #CEGORR FDJ United-Suez already at more than 25% of their 2025 WorldTour victories, and we're only 1 month into the season.

I'm approaching the 2027 transfer season in our PCM Career. 👀 What type of riders should I be trying to get? 💬

lmfao

Shame to hear about the cancellation of #BidasoaItzulia, a prestigious U23 race in Basque Country, where Mas, Biniam, Amador, Piganzoli & Juanpé Lopez finished on the podium. 💔 Yet another example of a grassroots projects struggling to survive due to lack of funding.

If you ever feel like you’re having a bad day, I’m building a 1330 piece LEGO set, and the pieces are not sorted per chapter. This might genuinely end me.

I really hope Antonio Morgado can keep his form moving upwards into the cobble classics. After a Top 5 in RVV 2024, I am craving for a proper breakout year for the Portuguese moustache.

I know it's a pretty cold take, but I think Velo Bursa Team should've gotten the Tour de France 2026 wildcard.

If Sebastian Berwick is in Caja Rural's Tour de France 2026 team, I think the entire LRCP audience will experience a collective aneurysm when Patrick picks him to win 9 breakaway stages.

In 2023, a minimum salary was introduced for Spanish Continental teams in Women's Cycling. I predicted it would cause many female Spanish Contintental teams to "downgrade" to amateur team status, as they do not have the necessary funds. In 2026, there are 0 female Spanish Continental teams left.

The Remco Evenepoel train has left the station. 🚆 #ChallengeMallorca

Always so funny to see a sprint with a fully relaxed peloton at 2 KMs from the finish, when Tour de France sprints have riders fighting each other verbally at a roundabout with 70 KMs left. 😂 #AlulaTour

Shock victory for draft merchant Malucelli! 👏 #AlulaTour Jonathan Milan was positioned in Narnia and had to spent too much energy in the lead-out, finishing in P2. Nice podium for Biesterbos.

One of my dream races to visit in the future is the Japan Cup. 😍

No wonder Picnic-PostNL happily agreed to a buy-out for Oscar Onley. It's not like they had much choice with a 19.5 million EUR operating loss in the last 3 years combined. 📉 🔗 https://moneyinsport.substack.com/p/picnic-postnls-195m-losses-in-last

Reminder to not forget to make your FantaCycling team for the men's Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race. 🚨 I'm going for a complete gamble by selecting Brady Gilmore as my captain, but I think I have a solid 9-man roster. 📈 #ad

Today I learned that in 2007, ASO banned Unibet's ProTour team from competing in their races, due to a conflict with the French gambling laws. Those laws imposed a state monopoly on gambling sponsors, only allowing French ones, banning foreign ones.

The most fascinating aspect of Caja Rural's presence at the Tour de France will be Gaviria launching at 600 meters from the finish, every single sprint.

Baelor Targaryen knowing the jousting record of Sir Arlen of Pennytree is the Game of Thrones equivalent of a cycling fan knowing Ahmet Örken won the Tour of Mevlana 2015. S-tier ball knowledge. 🧠 #AKOTSK

Jonathan Milan cleaning up #AlulaTour sprints with ease is hiding the fact that he’s sprinting in a more aerodynamic position than 2025.

ASO inviting Caja Rural over Unibet ROSE Rockets to the Tour de France 2026... They are, without a doubt, truly braindead.

So Fabrizio Guidi of UAE Team Emirates received a 7-day suspension after getting a second yellow card on Stage 5 of the #TourDownUnder. But his suspension runs out before the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race, so his suspension was completely ineffective. Great system, UCI. 👍

António Morgado wins #TrofeoCalvia, on his birthday. 🥳 Absolutely loved seeing Héctor Alvarez compete for the victory, just missing out in the sprint. He's got an incredible future ahead of himself, especially in the classics. 🔮

COME ON HECTOORRRR

Good leadout by Lidl-Trek, easy win by Milan. ✅ #AlulaTour Nice to see Daniel Skerl on the podium. 👏

What triggers me most about Jan Christen's race yesterday was his entitled behaviour to other riders. Carelessly ripping his bike off a rider, nearly hitting another rider with it, indirectly throwing someone else's bike into the floor...

Broadcast just started, and the peloton is already in pieces. 🥰 #AlulaTour

Text-book victory by Jonathan Milan at #AlUlaTour today. ✅ Gotta say, I wish Merlier wasn't injured because the sprints this week would be so much more captivating. Jan Christen crashed twice, and received a 20 second time penalty for drafting, and holding onto his team car.

Cycling influencers need to respect riders. If you want to record a snippet with them, or follow their wheel to see how fast they're going, ask them if they're OK with it. Respect their decision. Additionally, if they're clearly in a training session, let them cook without interruption.

🟥 NEW VIDEO Our team takes on Strade Bianche & Paris-Nice. ⚔️ ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4ICHG0IGgI Can we take our first WorldTour victory of 2027? 💛

What a fairytale start for Groenewegen x Unibet Rose Rockets with a sprint victory at #ClasicaCV1969. 💪 Gotta say, because the team produces so much great content, I feel so immersed in their journey. Can’t wait to see them at the Tour de France 2026. 👀

What is the best-looking cycling kit in the 2026 peloton? Drop your take below. 💬

After a difficult week, it's good to see Matthew Brennan finally winning. 💪 I still believe he will win multiple stages at La Vuelta 2026, with a stronger lead-out including Wout van Aert. What do you expect from Brennan this year? 💬 #TourDownUnder

Never thought I'd wake up to Jay Vine hitting the deck due to a kangooroo jumping into the peloton, only in the #TourDownUnder. 🦘 Glad he wasn't injured and secured the GC victory.
