An inseparable part of the Tour de France - the post-Tour criteriums will be once again a part of the riders' calendar tis summer. Traditionally, the biggest festivities are held in Belgium, Netherlands and last, but not least - in France. As such, there will be a total of 14 criteriums on French soil in the month after Tour de France with many of the race's big names promised to participate.
The Association of French Professional Criterions (ACPF) informs about the plans for this summer, including one large novelty, in a press release: "We are also particularly excited to unveil a highly anticipated new feature: a Women's Cycling Critérium will be organized during the Critérium de Bretagne as well as the Critérium de Colmar with the presence of some of the best riders in the peloton."
"This will be a unique opportunity to celebrate the tremendous talent and competitive spirit of women cyclists, who are gaining visibility and recognition. In an era where women's cycling is in the spotlight, this event promises to be a brilliant showcase of the performances and aspirations of sportswomen. Come support our athletes and see up close the power and determination that drive women's cycling!"

- Let's go, João Almeida!Lobz7718-06-2025
- I think the most unsatisfied way to retire but yet good luck to your next career young man. You can now watch cycling more fun than it is.

- I think this is actually the first cyclinguptodate article I've seen with the proper accents, so it's an improvement
Llywelynglyndwr17-06-2025 - I really don't see the reason for it being named after the newspaper anymore, so the name change is good. However, I think the new name is a bit of a mouthful, but abbreviations are out of the question. If you wanted to keep it as close as possible to the original it'd be Critérium du Auvegne-Rhône-Alpes (I'm not sure if that's correct)... which is even more of a mouthful. But the race is definitely not a Critérium, which is very misleadingLlywelynglyndwr17-06-2025
- Il Lombardia? with Tadej? mah... in the days prior, I'm sure he will be bitten by a shark.
maria2024202417-06-2025 - You got Rhône correct, but still struggling with Pogačar.cgmethod17-06-2025
- Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe need to take Lipowitz to the tour as a co-leader. Taking into account Lipowitz's performances and Roglič's tendency to crash out, it's not an option to sacrifice Lipowitz should Roglič be in trouble. Lipowitz beat Evenepoel by a significant margin in the Critérium du Dauphiné - I think he can fight for the podium. João Almeida would have to sacrifice himself for Pogačar, while I don't think Skjelmose will be putting much of a showing.Llywelynglyndwr17-06-2025
- That's because Del Toro purposefully gave the Giro away. Carapaz actually wanted to win. Sadly, some people have a problem with successLlywelynglyndwr17-06-2025
- If you take the GC of the Giro d'italia 2025 only including Stages 16-21, you'll find that: Simon Yates was the fastest, Richard Carapaz was 2:56 slower, Giulio Pellizzari was 3:17 down, Isaac Del Toro was 5:16 behind, Derek Gee was at 5:49, Damiano Caruso was at 6:17, Einer Rubio was at 7:59, Brandon McNulty was at 8:32, while Michael Storer was at 8:42 and Egan Bernal rounded off the top ten, being 9:24 down and the last rider within 10 minutes. After that the gaps start to baloon, with Rafał Majka at 11:08, Max Poole at 13:34, Adam Yates at 18:16, Davide Piganzoli at 24:42, Nicholas Prodhomme at 28:31, then an almighty jump to Thomas Pidcock who was 42:23 down, then Antonio Tiberi at 46:02, James Knox at 46:25, with Romain Bardet at 49:15 and Diego Ulissi rounding off the top 20, at 57:39 down, being the last rider within 1hr.Llywelynglyndwr17-06-2025
