Stage 19: All part of La Plagne Jul 25, 2025

Show notes

The final mountain stage of the Tour de France – shortened though it was for cattle-related reasons – went to Thymen Arensman as Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogačar mostly watched each other on the final summit finish of the race.

Stage 18: Onley fans and the Red Bull Classification Jul 24, 2025

Show notes

The Queen stage of the Tour de France is now behind us. One mountain stage remains.

Ben O'Connor played perfect legs with perfect tactics and took home a huge win for Jayco, while behind the battle for yellow wimpered and the battle for third, the white jersey, and the crucial Red Bull classification were absolutely firing.

Stage 17: Rain, pain and some gain Jul 23, 2025

Show notes

A straightforward sprint stage turned out to be anything but. A storm rolled into Valence just before the peloton did and led to a huge pileup in the finale. The good news? The fight for the green jersey is on. And tomorrow? The Alps.

Stage 15: A day for the underdogs Jul 20, 2025

Out of the Pyrenees and into the breakaway. The last stage before the final rest day of this Tour de France brought plenty of action, most of it off the front. Plus Pogačar admitted he's been a bit sick and Visma was attacking itself.

Stage 14: Super bangers and the things we found Jul 19, 2025

Show notes

One of the hardest stages of this Tour de France is now behind us. What did we learn? Vingegaard attacked but didn't get anywhere, Pogačar looks comfortable, and the race for 4th-6th is on.

Plus, we found some juice on a gondola and there's a new maillot sable in town.
