21.11.2025 14:46 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This has my head spinning, quite honestly. My first reaction yesterday was relief, for the riders and team staff, and for cycling on a broader scale.
Today all I can think is: where did these sponsors spring from?! In a sport that's always in desperate need of funding, this feels pretty miraculous.
Haha good one π€£
