    Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 12: Auch - Hautacam (180.6k)

    Roglic/Onley group not losing any more time, Vingo is.

    VLAB need Yates to win a stage. That way they won't go home empty-handed...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025, Stage 3: Valenciennes – Dunkerque (173.8k)

    People enjoy watching high stakes, adrenaline-fuelled racing. Nowhere did I say I enjoyed 'carnage'. Road racing doesn't have just one main property. That's why we have sprints, mountains, TTs, hilly classics, cobbles. You just want to have it all based on your preferred terrain. You talk down...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025, Stage 3: Valenciennes – Dunkerque (173.8k)

    I'm not sure you know what the word 'disgusting' means. You being in denial of what people like doesn't make it so. The 100m is the blue riband event in track and field. Motor racing thrives on speed. Downhill mtb gets big crowds. 'More than enough' appeal from one specific facet of riding a...

    Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025, stage 13: Rovigo – Vicenza, 180km

    Del Toro/Pederson/Pidcock/Van Aert. This giro has been very entertaining so far.

    Tour de France Tour de France 2024, Stage 5: Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne > Saint-Vulbas, 177.4 km

    Merckx shouldn't have ridden at least one of the Tours. I'm glad Cavendish won.

    Horseshoe Pass is a nice ride. Close to home for me too.

    Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2023, stage 18: Pola de Allande - La Cruz de Linares, 178.9k

    Good to hear the Wrekin (nice hill less than 10 miles from home) make it on to Eurosport today. It's not a mountain though, despite Kirby's claim.
