Aaron Gentry+FollowDowsett Family Rivalry: Skinsuits vs. Mortgages!Loved this deep dive into the Dowsett family’s speed obsession! The real highlight? The hilarious debate between Alex “Hour King” Dowsett and his dad Phil over spending £5k on a skinsuit—only for Alex to remind Phil he once remortgaged the house for his own racing dreams. It’s a classic case of generational rivalry, but also shows how both father and son pushed boundaries in their own sports. Anyone else think Alex’s cycling line owes a lot to his dad’s racing roots? #Sports #DowsettFamily #Cycling00Share
Jenna Gonzales+FollowVan der Poel's Jet Deal Sparks Fan OutrageMVDP just dropped a bombshell before the Tour—he’s now repping Flying Group, a private jet company. Fans are not happy, calling it a bad look for a cycling legend who should be pushing for greener travel. Van der Poel insists it’s about performance, not luxury, but the environmental impact has the peloton talking. Is this partnership a misstep, or just part of the modern pro game? #Sports #VanDerPoel #Cycling00Share
Rachel Nelson+FollowDomane vs. Checkpoint?If I had to choose between a road bike and gravel bike, which one would be better? A few considerations are that I live by mostly pavement trails, however I’d like to do gravel rides 2-4 times a month. #Cycling 00Share
Bruce Johnson+FollowUCI Bar Width Rule: Who’s Really Protected?So the UCI just doubled down on their new handlebar width rule—minimum 400mm wide for road and cross, starting 2026—and MyVeloFit is not having it. The data kings are saying this move actually sidelines smaller riders and women, since real-world fit numbers show most need narrower bars (think 38cm, not 40). UCI claims it’s about safety, but if you’ve ever been pro-fit, you know this could cause more harm than good. MyVeloFit’s petition is gaining steam—do you think the UCI will actually listen? #cycling #UCI #MyVeloFit #Sports00Share
Dawn Fritz+FollowAlmeida’s Alpine Attack Shakes Up Suisse GCDid you see Almeida’s monster solo today? The Portuguese Punisher dropped everyone on Splügenpass and just never looked back—49km alone in the heat! The chasing group just couldn’t get organized, and even Gall admitted Almeida was on another level. Grégoire barely held yellow, but Almeida’s now 7th and hunting more. With four cat-1 climbs tomorrow, is this the start of a GC comeback for UAE’s ace? #TourdeSuisse #Almeida #Cycling #Sports00Share
Judith Nelson+FollowWiggins Opens Up: Jiffy-Gate & RedemptionSir Wiggo fans, what a ride it’s been! Nearly a decade after that golden summer, Bradley Wiggins is baring it all—from the shadow of the infamous 'jiffy-gate' scandal to battling addiction post-retirement. The fallout from Team Sky’s murky package drama clearly haunted him, but it’s wild to hear that even Lance Armstrong stepped in to help Sir Brad find his way back. Now, with a new love for cycling and family by his side, Wiggins is finally finding peace. Thoughts on how cycling treats its legends? #Wiggins #Cycling #JiffyGate #LanceArmstrong #MentalHealth #Sports00Share
Amber Mcguire+FollowSUVs: The Hidden Danger on Our StreetsJust found out SUVs aren’t just gas guzzlers—they’re way more dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists, especially kids. A new study says getting hit by an SUV makes you 44% more likely to die (and for kids, it’s 82%!). It’s all because they’re taller and heavier, so impacts are way worse. If we swapped SUVs for regular cars, we could save a ton of lives. Kinda wild, right? Makes you rethink those big cars everyone’s driving lately. #RoadSafety #SUVs #UrbanLiving #PedestrianSafety #Cycling #CityLife #Transportation166Share
Dennis Bryant+FollowSky & Ineos: Why Did the Dynasty Fall? 🚴♂️Luke Rowe spills all in his new book, and the juiciest bit? He hints that Sky/Ineos lost their Grand Tour dominance because they stopped listening to the road captains! Fans are already debating if it was management’s ego or just bad luck. Did the team’s glory days end because of internal drama? This is going to split the fandom for sure! #Entertainment #Books #cycling00Share
