- Zoe Backstedt - whether the Canyon plan or not - coming 3rd after such a messy sprint is very impressive. Still so young, but since Baloise, becoming more of a sprinter.

- Best metal song at the Grammys is a 2 minute garage thrash thing, best rock song is an electronic dance thing Nine Inch Nails made for Tron Ares, and best rock performance was rightly won by Yungblud for his amazing tribute to Ozzy - now stop using autotune! Rant over ✌️
- Reposted by Dan DeakinsFun fact. Lars van der Haar has a getaway car ready. Lucy his wife is due today with baby two. His mum is ready with a red towel to wave when he needs to abandon the race and jump in the car home hahahahaha
- Brennan read most of that very well, just had no teammates for the finale and decided to open up just inside 300m to go. Admitted himself it was a mistake. Lund Andresen having himself a breakout season part 2, after 2024. Brady Gilmore again up there with a nice result.
- Two riders I hold great affection for; Simon Clarke retired this morning after the Cadel Evans road race, Bauke Mollema retires at the end of the season. One of my favourite breakaway stage wins 👇 2018 Vuelta stage 5 Chapeau 🫡🎩

- Bored millionaire dyes hair
- Today in transfers I missed; Charlotte Kool left Picnic in August 2025 for Fenix-Deceuninck.
- Milan is beatable. Just box him in, out of position, and make sure there's a 40kmph headwind 👍 Malucelli timed that perfectly, and got a free tank draft 😅
- It sounds like Christian Prudhomme has rejected Unibet Rose Rockets' wildcard request because he's cynical of their French licence. "They do not claim the French side at all. They have more Dutch riders".
- Uno X weren't invited to Copenhagen, Bardiani weren't invited to Florence, Euskatel weren't invited to Bilbao, so naturally, Caja Rural have been invited to Barcelona... 🤔
- Holy shit. That was an awful crash. Stella literally ripped out of his kit. Rex and Grellier also down.
- Pogi doing his best to make himself as unlikeable as possible while being a really likeable person
- Pogačar is the new face of KuCoin, a cryptocurrency trading company. This company has been fined several times and last autumn its Thai subsdiary was linked to Cambodian "pig butchering" scam schemes by investigative reporters, see whalehunting.projectbrazen.com/indicted-cry... ...
- "If you guys need a lead out, lemme know" Gaviria is such a nice guy.
- Gaviria moves to Caja Rural and they're already riding like Movistar 😂
- Echelons in January! 😍
- Reposted by Dan DeakinsJonas Vingegaard 🇩🇰 crashed in training on a descent but is okay and didn't sustain any serious injuries. Visma-Lease-a-Bike urged fans to be mindful of safety when riding around professionals for both fans and pros. "Please allow riders to train and give them as much space and peace as possible."
- There he is! 🤩 Brady Gilmore is looking like a neat little prospect too.

- Reposted by Dan DeakinsHello! I’m Alex, an engineer from South West UK. I love all things pro cycling and enjoyed discussing it over on X. I have now deleted that and looking for somewhere new to discuss. Have tried to follow most people that I recognise on here but please do let me know if I’ve missed you!
- Simon Yates has blocked everyone. The perfect mic drop.
- NO MATTEO WHAT DID YOU DO?!
- Erm...why doesn't the women's TDU include Willunga Hill this year, but does go to Willunga?
