This is laughable. If you actually click through to the report, the 'chest fairing' is comically huge and obvious. It's like an A-cup rider turning up with double D's lol. If the UCI can't spot such a chest fairing, then they must be blind!02:20

This stage was special and I think will be a classic. Just watching Pogacar catch each rider, and then seeing each rider drop their head in despair as Pogacar steamrolled past them. All the riders at the TDF are strong, so it was an incredible sight to behold.25-07-2026 04:05

I watched the stage last night and it was scary how close the crowd got. So many of them were selfishly waving flags at the cameras and only jumping out of the way at the last split second. So stupid and reckless! It was a wonder none of the flags caught a handlebar... Pogacar probably had it worst as he was chasing on his own (so the crowd could get much closer than if you were riding in a bunch) and at one point he was furiously waving at the crowd to make way. They need to extend the barriers much further down the mountain than just the last ~4km.25-07-2026 03:50

The headline is kind of click bait-y. Watch the YouTube clip yourselves. I don't think the headline is what I took out of the discussion. If I had to summarise, Geraint doesn't really assign blame, but it's kind of inferred that he probably thinks Campenaerts is to blame for following the moto and as a result, goes round the roundabout too hot. Geraint does say outright that he doesn't blame the 2am testing given that the peloton had already ridden through lots of dodgy corners safely earlier in the stage. I think this has been the key debate every fan has been discussing (whether the 2am testing had an impact) - I know there was even some heated debates on the Escape Collective comments, which is usually quite civilised...23-07-2026 03:30

It never ceases to amaze me that these scumbag drivers always seem to be in a rush to get somewhere and they make it seem like every second counts, but then they have the time to stop / brake check the other road user and waste valuable seconds of their own time...22-07-2026 04:31

LOL, how do you know the best man didn't win on the day though? Schmid proved he was the best man on the day by actually WINNING the stage through good tactical nous and team support - Plapp, Matthews, and O'Connor all sacrificed themselves for Schmid, it was incredible to watch, especially Plappy at the end riding very tactically to slow the chasers. You don't win a stage by accident at the TDF. People also forget grand tours require a lot of endurance. Maybe you can go for the stage today but your legs will suffer tomorrow - do you want to risk it for the biscuit? THAT'S why grand tours are so amazing.18-07-2026 03:51

There's never been a more appropriate application of the following saying: "It's a marathon, not a sprint".18-07-2026 03:41

The 'problem' (for lack of a better word) is the grand tours are all in Europe, so if you shift the TDF, then the Giro or Vuelta (depending on which way they shift the calendar) will then have to be held in the heat. There are also many other races, so the calendar is quite packed and there's not much room to shift. I think it's just something they have to put up with unfortunately. Us cyclists are tough and ride in most weather conditions and the pros are even tougher, so I think this is just more of a "discussion point of the day" and we'll all move on tomorrow to discuss something else haha (24hr news cycle etc).14-07-2026 06:39

That's literally what Girmay was saying. To each their own. The question put to him by the reporter was that sprints are boring. Learn to read.13-07-2026 09:50

It seems a bit harsh to say that Tuckwell cracked. Del Toro rode away from EVERYONE and finished 1min ahead of the second finisher. Tuckwell finished 8th. If anything, it would be more appropriate to say that Jorgenson cracked (even though he finished on the same time as Tuckwell), as he dropped from 2nd to 4th in GC and off the podium.14-06-2026 19:06
