LRCP do another GT preview creates happy brain chemicals
The hat 😂🔥🔥🔥
The obvious breakaway stage will be stage 18 Gap > Barcelonette. Other than that maybe the two stages in between Massif Central and Pyrenees. I think a strong breakaway like Le Creusot 2021 could somehow form on stage 1 to be honest, we will see lol.
Puy Mary according to the TDF website the final km averages 14%…
Key thing about that Bonette climb is the final kilometre, you are going up to 2800m and its 10% and higher. If Pogacar cracks then we saw how quickly a gap to Vingegaard can open on Ventoux / Marie Blanque / Granon in just a short amount of time. And it gets more concerning for Pog because I think Vingegaard can take time on that descent too, before we even reach Isola 2000.
The things I’d do to see rog v Pog v jonas v remco v nairo all fully fit
Has LR also put on some makeup to go with that fetching beret?

Day 3 of asking for a Wout Van Aert interview. He's a pretty knowledgeable guy and interesting to talk to if he's enjoying it.
LR – sure you noticed but looks like your camera often focuses on the microphone, rather than your pretty new hat.
If i were Evenepoel I'd focus on the Giro (and a parcous that suits him) and do the TdF as an aside for exploration and stage wins.
The Valloire stage can be really tricky. Wind can be a factor on these less steep but very high altitude climbs. Also the last section of the Galibier is steep (from Lautaret) so not just high altitude. It was very tricky back in 2011 when they finished the stage on the top of the Galibier. If Visma smells blood it can be very similar what they did this year on the Tourmalet but more room for big tempo with high watts on the less steep slopes until the Lautaret

The berret screams crosswind chaos.
Why is Benji talking to Nile Rodgers about the TdF
I think the weird profile on the climb to Montgenevre on stage 4 is due to a tunnel.
Listen very carefully, I will only say this once.
