I really feel sorry for all ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukrainians. Living and building up your life while some big powers are dividing your home must be very difficult. Not knowing if you ever will see your house again, if you will live the next day, if you can keep your loved ones... #Ukraine

Woah ๐Ÿคฉ Uno-X becomes 7-Eleven for one day, this Sunday. This looks really iconic and amazing. Perhaps @soudalquickstep.bsky.social could bring a tribute to Mapei too? ๐Ÿ˜‰ Any other nostalgic ideas? Movistar as Banesto ? #cycling #cyclingbluesky

3 months to restart racing after a concussion looks quite a lot... How much visibility do you give to your sponsor by this? How much hunger & ambition do you have as a rider if you only want to race so less? #cycling #cyclingbluesky

On Sunday, Lotte Kopecky can become the first rider since 2018, who wins the Tour of Flanders & Liรจge-Bastogne-Liege in the same season. She can add yet another milestone to her career. #cycling #LBL25 #cyclingbluesky

There were some reasons to believe that Puck Pieterse could become a great puncheur, but beating a prime Demi Vollering at her age? It's impressive how versatile she is and that over a long period Nice, how Fenix can challenge the traditional top teams occasionally too #cycling #cyclingbluesky

he weather, wind, race scenario and parcours plays a role in those times. But despite his big lead on the others, Pogacar's time today and in 2023 do not really stand out in comparing with previous efforts in other years. #cycling #FlecheWallonne #cyclingbluesky

Flรจche Wallonne, a waiting game? Not in 1994! GeWiss broke away with 3 riders, already 70 km from the finish on the second ascent of the Mur de Huy This successful team effort is often considered as the start of a new dark era in cycling youtu.be/eSiQF7wdWNM?siโ€ฆ #cycling #cyclingbluesky

For the fans of OneCycling ๐Ÿšบ Human rights situation in ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฆ ๐Ÿ”ธ No freedom of speech ๐Ÿ”ธ Women under male guardianship ๐Ÿ”ธ Gender apartheid ๐Ÿ”ธ Slave labour ๐Ÿ”ธ Beheading as punishment ๐Ÿ”ธ No democracy ...

A few races were really like ๐Ÿฅฑ๐Ÿ˜ฉ this Spring But riders can't (always) be blamed for it. The reasons for those situations are sometimes a bit more nuanced. In this article, we look at the problems & solutions ๐Ÿ‘‡ cyclingbottle.blogspot.com/2025/04/pass... #cycling #cyclingbluesky

he women's ๐ŸŒˆ palmares seems to be already more diverse earlier on. Riders from both ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Western & Eastern Europe won a big amount of titles, even that there has been a big shift westwards since the turn of the Century. #cycling #cyclingbluesky

In the 1960 & 70s most winning nations came from Western European nations, especially ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ช Belgium & ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น Italy. In the 1980s, we see the first ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ non-European titles. In the new century, we still see mostly ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ European succes, but by more different nations ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฐ #cycling #cyclingbluesky

The stats of Tadej Pogacar in Pro Cycling Manager. If it had a slightly better time trial and sprint, than you would think that they come from Eddy Merckx. #cycling #cyclingbluesky

That's how you score UCI points, 180 points for Ceratizit in the bag ๐Ÿ‘ #cycling #cyclingbluesky

Most boring national championship ever ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ˜ด #cycling #UAE #cyclingbluesky

Seems like shrinkflation is real. #cycling #cyclingbluesky

๐ŸŒˆ Worlds Junior Men's Race Top 10 in 2016 ๐Ÿ‘€ Where are they now? #cycling #cyclingbluesky

All the best riders in the race who keep pushing till the line and the strongest rider wins ๐Ÿคฉ That's how cycling should always be. What an incredible courage by all favourites in all their different positions that they have been in the past hour. #cycling #AGR25 #cyclingbluesky

Mischa Bredewold is really good in finishing off opportunities when the race scenario allows it ๐Ÿšด๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ The top riders took a day off today ๐Ÿ˜ด All eyes on the Ardennes week ๐Ÿค“ #cycling #AGR25 #cyclingbluesky

HIs step up to World Tour racing, already launched him to the podium in one of the toughest races on the calendar โ›ฐ๏ธ The talented Luca Van Boven immediately made an impact in his new team.

The greatest of all time will stay a few more years in the peloton ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป If you can see her racing somewhere, don't hesitate to seize the opportunity, because chances are very slim that you'll ever see a better rider after her. #cycling #cyclingbluesky

Remco Evenepoel is more than competitive for the Ardennes classics. First race, first victory on a challenging parcours. Van Aert who won so many mass sprints before loses another small group sprint. It remains suprising. One more chance on Sunday? #cycling #DPB25 #cyclingbluesky

Elisa Longo Borghini, we have missed you so much during Flanders & Roubaix. 2 weeks after her big crash, she already wins again by a clear margin. The strongest rider of this Spring? Curious about what the Ardennes classics will bring. #cycling #DBP25 #cyclingbluesky

Excellent news for cycling in ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia. The return of their oldest stage race could bring back an international calendar from mid January till mid February. Two stage races with the Surf Coast classic and Cadel Evans Race in between. #cycling #Australia #cyclingbluesky
