    Tour de France 2025 route rumours and announcements

    Thank you for your answers. I will only attend the last stage so it is too soon for me to open it. @RobertCrawley should have been on the roads yesterday and today, I hope he'll come back and tell us (in a brand new thread full of anecdotes). (Also hope he didn't order the andouillette without...

    I would say it also depends on which teams French riders ride for. Obviously there were dubious French riders. I don't know if a French rider training and living abroad would escape French law. That's a question I already asked myself. Edit: besides escaping taxes of course.

    Tour de France 2025 route rumours and announcements

    @Armchair Cyclist @Cookster15 Is there a thread for people attending some stages to tell about their day on the Tour's roadside? I would love to read them. Or should it be in this thread? Sorry for the newbie question and sorry if this thread already exists, I didn't make a full research as I...

    State of the Peloton 2025

    He said this morning he wanted this stage, so there was nothing to expect. At least he warns you, so you can organise your day.

    Come one. Six or seven regular posters on these threads. It's like you invited your whole neighborhood to your birthday and nobody came. Sad but at least we'll have enough to drink.

    I am adding to the off topic (let's take a deep breath before the mountain stages): I played Finlandia, the Karelia Suite and the violin concerto (in a community orchestra). Magnificent composer :hearteyes:

    Let's remember the PFC that almost killed Gianetti wasn't on the market (and never was), and it is said Gianetti was not the only cyclist on it. Cyclists are incorrigible sorcerer's apprentices.

    I am sure I am not the only one cheering for riders whatever their nationality. I'll be happy to challenge myself when Paul Seixas will be a little older and on the same program as Pogacar :p

    Remco spending the whole day practicing his positionning (and crashing without going to the hospital skills). Good boy.

    Is this how you guys welcome a newcomer? This part of the forum is the only place where these questions can be raised. Consider it a place for pure speculation, a madhouse if you will. Would you debate in an asylum?

    I guess you're French? Did you have a look at this interview? View: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YA8IbgziL8o (I am not saying a non French speaker shouldn't watch it but I doubt the efficiency of automatic subtiles regarding Bardet's prononciation.)

    He never says anything about Evenepoel except for his admiration, but he slips in a little joke about Pogacar from time to time, in which I hear some incredulity. I could be wrong of course.

    Don't you sense a slight hint of irony in the sentence you underlined? I guess you forgot to underline apparently. Beware of Bardet, he can be witty at times.
