There’s nothing about this kid that I don’t love

I love watching Matty Brennan sprint so much #TourdePologne

No one cares about women's sport...

Cannot stop thinking about the sheer chutzpah of saying 'yeah, I'm gonna win the Tour in my first season on the road in years, why not' and then actually doing it

Wish I had 10% of the commitment to my job that Chris Woakes evidently has to his. Cricket: an objectively totally mad sport.

Interesting to me that all of this nonsense is linked to two men's egos whilst their female teams just crack on. Maybe men are just too emotional for sport?

Jonas v Richie (v whatever the hell UAE end up doing in reality) has potential

Ah yes, of course, how silly of me. All the big issues of the day covered at UCI HQ

But still - gear limits and narrower handle bars yeah. Top work UCI.

The crushing inevitability of a big crash on such a stupid course is enraging #TDFF2025

Wout winning, G crossing the finish line for a last time, trying to keep one eye on the football - I’m exhausted

Me, a Wout fan, before stage 21: this has been the worst Tour I’ve watched.
Me, a Wout fan, after stage 21: THIS IS THE GREATEST TOUR I’VE WATCHED
#TDF2025

There is no one older than me in the Hommes, but G is only six weeks younger and also Welsh so if he could win today that would be excellent. (I realise this is perhaps not the most likely outcome.) #TDF2025

My entirely self centred take on Mavi Garcia winning that stage is that I’m hugely in favour of people older than me winning things in sport (also: she’s amazing and another incredible stage) #TDFF2025

Imagine how people would react if there was only full coverage of seven stages of the men’s Tour

That was so good. Anyone who thinks women’s cycling is less exciting than men’s is an actual idiot #TDFF2025

Visma LAB women showing the Visma LAB men how it’s done #TDFF2025

The first use of ‘you can’t win the Tour in the first week but you can lose it’ by a commentator on the Femmes is within the first hour of the first stage of racing and I love the efficiency #TDFF2025

‘Bringing two sprinters to the tour? And MVDP? Are Alpecin insane?’
No, they are very much not.

Days like today remind me that I truly know fuck all about cycling and I love that #TDF2025

11%. Your regular reminder that women’s sport isn’t somehow ‘fixed’ just because the Lionesses are doing well…

This Tour, I've had a 100% record of being in work for the exciting mountain stages and at home for the underwhelming mountain stages. So I guess today was on me and I can only apologise #TDF2025

Rogla on manoeuvres on a day I'm working from home? C'est parfait. #TDF2025

Rogla on manoeuvres on a day I'm in the office? Furious. #TDF2025

Watching Lizzie at London 2012 was the thing that planted the idea that watching road cycling might be a thing I enjoyed. With her retired, and G soon to follow, I feel a million years old today.

Bini crosses the line with apparently only one functioning arm whilst pound shop Captain America is lauded as some kind of hero? Extremely not for me. Bring back the mountain stages! #TDF2025

The 🇫🇷 #TDFF2025 begins on Saturday July 26, which is now just 4 days away! 😆

We took a look and gave five GC favourites for the Tour de France Femmes 👇

Oh lovely stuff

Huge fan of a super domestique 1-2 #TDF2025

I’m not saying I found today’s stage underwhelming, but I am saying that my weekend to do list has been completed this afternoon #TDF2025
