the most important ones to remember are
1. Texaco Groot-Bijgaarden
2. Esso Rotselaar
But don’t you live in the US?

insert tour of hellas joke here

They sell them in petrol stations in Belgium as well and I have a top-20 ranking of highway petrol stations based on their chausson-aux-pommes quality

a feat none of my friends find interesting, somehow

A French pastryfied apfelstrudel

Ooh we’re talking pastry-pastries. I’ll take a chausson-aux-pommes then

Yeah I completely agree. Thought he would be 1/25-ish!

I like a good brioche

Have you discovered croissants?

I thought Brennan could be interesting as a really long shot… turns out he’s a close second in the betting market? 🤨

Don’t we all

Each ride has its own song!

I think you'll enjoy catching up.

But then why would he do it?

Are those in order? If yes I would put Gigante a lot higher, captured our minds every day (good or bad 😀)

I would add Ghekiere just because of the amount of verbal abuse she can give her team leader and get away with because of pure West-Flemish-nice-ness. Respect.

Thank you for the visual overviews and daily previews. That's gotta take some time to prepare... Only found out about your account some time into the TDF but checked it every day since then!

... then why'd he do it?

I don't disagree, but both can be true at the same time.

This did not age well
(Vollering's comment, not your post 😀)

While I agree to some point with the voyeuristic sentiment

also the French president thought it would be good for his image to be on TV with PFP

Gotta take your wins!

Totally agree. Was a bit on the fence last year.
But for 2026: add an extra mountain top finish, two hilly stages, a sprint and a TT. Does that make it any easier to predict who will win? What a time to watch this sport grow!

... with a descent? 😭
Nah won't be flat but they'll be afraid of PFP domination too. They're French sure, but they'll also overreact to keep the race exciting. It will have less downhill in the finishes / best bits (+Gigante) and a medium flat to hilly TT (+Vollering?) but enough long climbs for PFP

Maar je kàn alle ritten op voorhand instellen!

Zo lang je maar niet één wijziging maakt voor een rit want dan wordt alles gereset 😂

Had this on my wall as a kid. Apparently cars don't kill heroes...
(drugs do)

(Geen brag, ik heb het daarna nog dik verknoeid met mijn uitermate slecht gekozen transfers 😀)

Toevallig en ietwat laat deze post tegengekomen - herinner me dat ik dik aan het vloeken was omdat ik Alexandre Delettre (p11) in de bus had gelaten. Het kon dus erger :-)

They’re gonna add a longass TT 😭

Weird hashtag for Tour de France femmes

Agreed but… I really would have loved to have the 2026 champion on there!

Had not read anything about it but was so pissed when Squiban had a car behind her the second day in a row

Somebody saying the important things round here!

can't watch, was it a bad crash? pcs has them back in peloton?
