🇨🇦 Michael Woods backs 🇸🇮 Pogacar as greatest of all time: "Merckx was competing when there were only four billion people on the planet. Only four countries were good at it, and some of the guys he raced against were still working." 📰 www.domestiquecycling.com/en/news/wood... 📸 Cor Vos

The people need to know

It takes a special kind of person to go to the African continent and show support for someone who was OK with racist and slavery views. The Rwandian children watching is so ironic. Note the Yahoo article is before Kirk's death, August'25. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Cancelling our Campagnolo-Giant partnership and dumping stocks immediately! Red alert!

Do duplex bars next!

🇪🇸 Pello Bilbao criticises UCI over inconsistent bans "I don't understand the hypocrisy of the UCI when they made a different decision with the Russian Gazprom. I don't understand the difference. Why do some yes and others no?” 📄 www.domestiquecycling.com/en/news/i-do... 📸 Cor Vos

Us when the neutral bike isn’t equipped with Campy

Not sure what the most painful part of this image is tbh

It's not political though

Where is Rouleur Derby when we need them most?? 😫😫😫

In WhatsApp messages seen by Escape Collective, multiple riders have asked Israel-Premier Tech to pull out of the race amid repeated protests. escapecollective.com/riders-call-...

We’ve been racing bikes in the US for about 25 years, and the entire time USA Cycling has been a low performing, disappointing, point of pain for racers, promoters, and fans. And yet we all keep registering our teams with them. Our events. It’s way past due to stop. We deserve much much better.

I, for one, am shocked to hear the team is run like a dictatorship.

Imagine being a former World Champion and a top sprinter, and getting out foxed with an absolutely savage move by David THE LEGEND Gaudu!

Juul-Jensen as Maiden makes so much sense (I don’t think they meant it this way, but O’Connor as Metallica also makes a lot of sense if you’re a hater like me)

We love this festival line-up 🔥

Six teams DISQUALIFIED from Tour de Romandie Féminin 🇨🇭 before stage 1 over disagreement with UCI over new rider tracking!

The end is near. #labubu #cycling

One way I've changed over the years is accepting however folks ride bikes. I don't care what you wear when you ride. I don't care if you slam your stem. I don't care if you use a mirror. I don't care about caps vs hats. I don't care if you ride an e-bike. As long as you're not a jerk, I don't care.

We can neither confirm nor deny that “Peak Tim” broke out the old Ag2r kit in France and caused a bit of a scene

Fellas, I think Julian knew he didn’t win the race but extended his arms so Tim could easily slip the title belt around his waist. 💰💰💰

An incredible day for Alaphilippe at the Tour de France. But was it one to remember… or one to forget? And most importantly, is it Belt-worthy? We decided, you’ll hear it Tuesday!

It had to be Ineos didn’t it

Shimano guy ⚙️💙 MVP of the day 👏 #TDF2025

There’s a lot of pressure being a rider in the Tour de France already, but then try being the one that took out Pog. I wouldn’t be sleeping well

The podcast always has correspondents on the ground

Ben Healy is in danger

Can’t believe we couldn’t get a deal for Healy done before today 😭 Price is gonna be thru the roof now. Might have to offer Peak Tim, after all

Dear Ireland, we are willing to offer Simmons and 3 random domestic “pros” for Ben Healy. Please? We desperately need something to be excited about in this country

A rough day for us at the pod… TT’s always are. But boy do these time trial helmets and bikes with re-donk-u-lous chainrings (Primoz on a 68!?) make me feel like I’m watching the AI hallucinations of what it thinks cycling looks like #tourdefrance #tdf25 #tdf2025

Look, I’m not saying it’s game over for Remco, but I am wondering if he knows the game has started

1 down, 3 to go. #MvdPpredictions #TimIsWrongAgain #MattToo

Feeling pretty smug atm about the timeshare we have in Kaden Groves. Invest early, friends!

Today seems like a good day for a Sunday Stroll

Reminder that tomorrow, it’s time to hurt a little bit with the fellas from @theslowridepod.bsky.social

I’m sick with Tour fever Ooo wah ah ah ah

The Campy mafioso is putting in the work finally. Let’s get thumb shifting back in the peloton

Scenario: Your kid is joining the high school mtb league. Do you buy them: A) new entry level mtb B) 20-30 yo sweet mtb you always wanted but never had C) $10k full squish. It’ll be yours next season if they don’t like racing D) the masters sprinter van of your dreams (a “support” vehicle 😉)

Ok you guys, the boys aren’t here yet. We can talk about anything we want!

New holiday just dropped. Added it to the calendar. Need to source a ride. Sorry I missed it, @theslowridepod.bsky.social

Check check?
