    Phil just said Bernard Hinault instead of Bernard Thévenet with Jeannie Longo. Oh Phil.... At least he didn't say Adri VdP again

    Teams & Riders Everybody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives

    Congrats to Primoz making it safely to Paris. I don't know if he rides it again, but if he does I hopes in only in a support role with stage hunting in mind. I still think he has a Giro or Vuelta win in him, but who knows. I think he's happy with his career and it's all good from now on. I...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 21: Mantes-la-Ville – Paris (132.3k)

    I love this final stage format. I little bit of procession, the option to race if you want or just ride in with no real risk of losing any position on GC. Still has the same prestige as a stage, but way better for spectators, riders, etc. I hope they keep it!

    G Thomas should go out in a blaze of glory here. Would love to see him in the break again

    If Lipowitz has a bad day tomorrow, I think/hope Roglic can have a great day and put time into Onley. For the team, I guess it only matters where Lipo is in relation to Onlay as the podium and the white jersey are on the line. Only 22 seconds between Lipo and Onley. I think the best bet will...

    That was the best Roglic has looked so far. Definitely on the upward path and now in 5th. I think he can get 4th by Paris and he should help Lipowitz hold 3rd / white jersey.

    I hope Primoz rests up and shows off his superior tan lines on the rest day. I'll be happy if he gets to Paris unscathed and top 5 position. Do you guys think he'll go to the Vuelta this year? I'm not sure he'll be great in the 3rd GT in a year, but you never know with Rogla. He's a beast...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025, 2nd Rest Day Poll: Who’s going to win Stage 21?

    Quinn Simmons will unlease the mullet on Paris! You've seen Wout do the "red bull gives you wings" celebration and you've heard of the Eagle of Durango/Andorra, but wait until you see the Eagle of 'Murica cross the line first! It'll be yuge!

    The guy literally won the last Grand Tour of the year, last year. I think a podium is not out of reach, and he could win another Vuelta or Giro if things line up (luck, who else is riding, etc.). The Tour? No way. But that goes for everyone. He's had an incredible career and I think he...
