Haha, love Wheelysports and love this title. 😂

I don’t normally watch the Al Ula Tour, but… calling it now, Jan Christen could be a bigger PR problem for UAE this year than Ayuso was last year. 🫢

(But he also likely won’t deliver the same wins…)

It’s so important for people to leave that platform. I’m sure no platform is perfect, but there are so many glaring reasons NOT to be on that specific one. With everything happening in our world, it’s unconscionable.

It’s terrible. Every American should stand up and speak up regarding this.

Ha, I also wrote about 7 changes in October after Worlds…. but they were different changes than what’s in this article.

I guess there really were more than 7 total changes. 😂

Snowy cross is usually one of my favorite forms of cycling… not today… ☹️

Absolutely! Sharing and promoting my blogposts on X was exhausting… like shouting into the wind.

Here, I feel even the ones that don’t “take off” reach a few readers who enjoy them.

I’m basically completely off X now (both for my blog and personally).

Yes!!

Crowds at grand prix cyclistes in Montreal

Lovely idea for a thread!

My best memory of the year was seeing the pros race in Montreal. Also, that @cyclingscoop.bsky.social is growing with overall more visitors/readers than in 2024 ❤️

Sending good vibes to your plant babies 💚

Awesome news!! 💖

Wout has the entire road race season this year as well, at this point in his career I’m happy just to see him getting out there and staying competitive in cx.

Fantastic win for Tibor!

Always nice to see the younger guys get their day. Great victory in the sprint against WvA, something to be proud of!

Agree; weirdly I don’t see him slotting into a WvA-like role on the road though, at least not at Alpecin.

Really nice result for Tibor. I hope he stays strong through the remainder of the cx season.

If they release a game with a mix of real and faked riders/teams likely knowing that the community will make a mod with all real rosters (especially considering who the dev is, for this game)… why bother licensing any teams or riders in the first place? That’s like throwing money away.

Is this not a huge copyright violation? How can this game use the real team and riders names along with jerseys, even if just for demo purposes?

The people need Jontréal 2026.

Let the man get his pink jersey!

Hands-down funniest guy in the sport once he got off Visma’s media training leash! HBD

Visma has quite a few good signings for next year. They’re coming out better in/out for transfers, aside from Benoot.

Is there really inspiration to improve if you know you’ll still be racing for second place most of the time?

I know this is mostly PR speak from Bernal, but it would be obviously demoralizing.

It’s time for the UCI to put their foot down on state sponsors or names outside of national teams. Simple enough to put an end to an obvious form of sportswashing.

Really lovely interview. Bas is an inspiration to anyone starting a project in the cycling world and growing it into something meaningful.

This is such a weird event. Is it scripted, like the end-of-season criteriums? What are they doing the day before that will supposedly be the basis of a documentary? Is this just one big Andorra travel commercial?

I’m fascinated, haha.

Lol, genuinely not sure what point this is trying to make other than ragebaiting. Did you actually look at any of the numbers or just ooh-green-checks?

Love working with guest authors for @cyclingscoop.bsky.social.

Touch base any time if you’re interested in writing for the blog and we can definitely work something out. Contributions are always appreciated! ❤️

Yes, it’s the circuit. The same thing happened in GP Montreal this year which is also a circuit… a few riders were pulling off to quit every lap. Haha.

Reflecting on euros yesterday, I think there’s a clear reason why no one can beat Tadej Pogačar.

Everyone’s got a big “plan,” but nobody actually wants to collaborate or help to bring him down together.

But… doesn’t that mirror many parts of society these days?
