Today's 9th place was Cian Uijtdebroeks' first top 10 result in a World Tour one-day race, although this was only his second such race after the 2022 Amstel.

Cian's re-profiling as a one-day specialist rider might benefit both him and the team - he was solid in every aspect today. #Klasikoa2025

Stage 7 of the 🇫🇷 #TDFF2025 was the calm before the storm - a last chance for breakaways, a wake-up call for GC favourites, and the moment 🇫🇷 Maëva Squiban rose from promise to phenomenon.

Might be late to the party with sharing this, but I feel this has been the best piece I've written so far in my life. You know, there are times when my desired style, topic and the circumstances align - this was one of the rare occasions #TDF2025

WON HIS FIRST PRO RACE TODAY 🤩🤩🤩

This and Tour de France Femmes.

Alas: how to make yourself an open-air screening of an evening stage. #TDFF2025

oooh, that sounds fun! thanks a lot!

😭😭😭😭

Yapp.

Solved a problem, gained another:

I'll have 4 hours in Amager before moving in - any ideas what to do?

I saw a lot of comments about this.

After today's stage, I phrased my thoughts with kind of bittersweet feelings.

Now or never for Jonas.

If he wins today, the rivalry goes on.

If he doesn't... changes will need to be done at Visma, structurally.

Influential battle for the rest of the decade is coming up today #TDF2025

Guys, help me.

I booked and paid a place in Airbnb but the host said no to me due to a personal arrangement. I've paid quite a hefty amount of money for things and I don't really know what to do in this situation - can you help me how I can arrange any refund?

Domestique Debrief, Stage 15.

It was a fun day. 🥳 #TDF2025

A positive thing for neutral fans:

Arkea-B&B Hotels had 3 riders in top 12.

Probably their best performance ever on a mountainous stage at World Tour level.

Vauquelin still doing some heroics but Rodriguez and Garcia Pierna both deserve their flowers. #TDF2025

Have to give my flowers to Noemi this morning - heard this banger first on Tim Summer Hits' last Friday and this has such a hook that it will bring me through the next 4 days.

One screen on graduation ceremonies, other on Tour: best time of the year #TDF2025

Bence Czigelmajer on Substack The biggest lesson of today is that we actually saw how Visma wants to win this Tour, and today was the perfect litmus test for that. The institution of rolling attacks, if used well, can be incredibl...

substack.com/@cycloben/no...

Hmm. Hmm...

Today, we saw how Visma wants to win the race. It can work. But maybe, they already fumbled their chances during the first 9 stages.

U23 Giro debrief: ✔️
Giro d'Italia Women debrief: ✔️

As fate would have decided rightly (and of course, I had an impact on that, too), I was the lucky man to work on the third big Giro, the women's Giro d'Italia this year.

Biggest stage in cycling. Millions watching. And still: no one wants to show their jersey (until TotalEnergies saved the day). What are we even doing here?

113-stage streak is over, Italy finally has a Tour de France stage win in the 2020s!

Bravo, Jonathan Milan, that was a top notch finish.

#TDF2025

I'm not angry, not anxious; I'm just sad. #TDF2025

Well, if circuits are the future, then the best thing would be to stop here in Vitré and ride the laps of the Route Adelie de Vitré around 8 times - with Côte de la Perouse and Côte de la Chenelière, there would be chances for some proper fireworks... #TDF2025

3 days ago it was 36 °C

sacrificed my umbrella for this picture. really cold, only 16 °C now in Budapest, today would be a perfect crosswind day on an appropriate terrain.

Stage 2.

Joan Thiele, fireworks, unexpected Ricky Mas & huge FDJ praise in this shortish note.

crazy that only 6 riders are 30 seconds within the leader after stage 2, this was a way more selective opening weekend from what I envisioned.
