Dauphine starts tmrw and the last chance to see who’s doing what ahead of the TDF. Mega strong line up incl; Pog Vingy Remco Mvdp https://www.cyclingnews.com/races/criterium-du-dauphine-2025/preview/
Pogacar wins stage 1 in a sprint with mvdp vingy and remco after vingy made break from the peloton with 7k odd to go. Ridiculous how he’s won that although Mvdp only broke his wrist two weeks ago. Bodes very very well for the TDF though seeing all the top boys on their best form and willing to race from the word go. Well worth watching the highlights if you can.
Jonathan Milan wins stage 2 of the Dauphine. Lidl Trek lead out has been a cut above by and large all season long. Usually with Mads. So strong. Bardet gave it a go briefly but to no avail.
Ivan Romero of Movistar (El Matador) wins stage three of the Dauphine from the breakaway to claim his first World Tour stage. Great day, over 200km that included MVDP in a large break early on. Romero went with 7k to go and the rest of them dithered.
TT day at the Dauphine today and Remco smashed the whole field and takes the yellow jersey off Romero’s back. 20 seconds over vingy 48 seconds over the Pog Over a minute to Mvdp He’s back.
Get involved. Unless it's too bourgeois for you... https://www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/the-cyclists-ebikers.76960/page-221
Red899 is a professed cyclist hater, he can’t reconcile his love for Pro cycling with his adjective hatred of person powered 2 wheeled push cycles.
Jake Stuart of Coventry, UK wins stage 5 of the Dauphine with a brilliant sprint for Israel Premier Tech. Peloton caught with just 1.5k to go. Remco crashes inside the 5k safety zone. Hope he’s okay. Looks like he’s landed on his shoulder. Stays in yellow for tomorrow (obviously).
Pogi rides away from Remco and Vingy like they’re not even there, on the last but one climb with 7.5k to go to take the yellow jersey. Lump on him to take the TDF now if you can find a bookie stupid enough to take your money. Makes it look like he’s not even trying.
