All very tight at the top of the West Mids League after Sunday's Solihull RR. Dan Butlin leads with 396 points, Matt Clarke is 2nd with 393 and our own Luke Mannings, right, 3rd with 392 after finishing ahead of Dan + Matt on Sunday. Two rounds left, plenty to play for

Just time to read this excellent piece by ⁦William Fotheringham⁩ before the riders of the 2025 Tour de France head up the pitiless slopes of the Mont Ventoux this afternoon… theguardian.com/sport/2025/jul…

Visma’s basic problem summed up today. Doesn’t matter how good Vingo is he needs a really good second foil to take the race to Pogi. Jorgensons loss of form has been critical here

Une des plus belles victoires de Laurent Fignon. La Plagne, Tour de France 1984. Laurent avait choisi cette photo pour illustrer la couverture de son livre "Nous étions jeunes et insouciants" 💔 📸 MC #LaurentFignon #LaPlagne #TDF #TDF1984 #TDF2025 #cyclisme #cycling #ciclismo

If you want to understand the French cycling term “un enterrement premier classe” watch the final 20k of todays stage of the Tour

Give us jeopardy on the final stage of the Tour they said. So they did. But that’s too much jeopardy they thought so they took it away again.

I guess in the same way that you take an umbrella out & it doesn’t rain , neutralising the overall probably ensures it stays dry in Paris. That’s weather for you

Much love out there for the ITV Cycling team and it’s amply merited - some of the retrospectives this year were fab. Came to them very late, but I’ll miss Ned Boulting 🏳️‍⚧️ David Millar & all the crew. It’s come a long way since my dad took me to watch C4 being broadcast in the 80s
