I’m always surprised when people deny this! It’s happened before on several occasions…

Ngl I’d eat it. Lock me up for crimes against Italy…

No! 😭 It should definitely be included on a sports plan right?!?

Thanks man appreciate it! Might have something small together by the end of the week 🀞 My interest is piqued haha

Exactly.

Why don’t we all think about β€œreducing the time” between when we know riders need tracker protection and when we actually do it??

Pro cycling peeps: is this worth reviewing for @cyclingscoop.bsky.social? I’d love to write about it in the larger frame of team-sponsored media.

Yep yep. And this hype will only become worse if he does TdF!

Discovering I’ve been randomly blocked since July by two pro cycling folks? I thought they both just left this platform… whoops guess that explains it 😭

Haha, love Wheelysports and love this title. πŸ˜‚

I don’t normally watch the Al Ula Tour, but… calling it now, Jan Christen could be a bigger PR problem for UAE this year than Ayuso was last year. 🫒

(But he also likely won’t deliver the same wins…)

It’s so important for people to leave that platform. I’m sure no platform is perfect, but there are so many glaring reasons NOT to be on that specific one. With everything happening in our world, it’s unconscionable.

It’s terrible. Every American should stand up and speak up regarding this.

Ha, I also wrote about 7 changes in October after Worlds…. but they were different changes than what’s in this article.

I guess there really were more than 7 total changes. πŸ˜‚

Snowy cross is usually one of my favorite forms of cycling… not today… ☹️

Absolutely! Sharing and promoting my blogposts on X was exhausting… like shouting into the wind.

Here, I feel even the ones that don’t β€œtake off” reach a few readers who enjoy them.

I’m basically completely off X now (both for my blog and personally).

Lovely idea for a thread!

My best memory of the year was seeing the pros race in Montreal. Also, that @cyclingscoop.bsky.social is growing with overall more visitors/readers than in 2024 ❀️

Wout has the entire road race season this year as well, at this point in his career I’m happy just to see him getting out there and staying competitive in cx.

Fantastic win for Tibor!

Always nice to see the younger guys get their day. Great victory in the sprint against WvA, something to be proud of!

23.12.2025 16:43 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Agree; weirdly I don’t see him slotting into a WvA-like role on the road though, at least not at Alpecin.

Really nice result for Tibor. I hope he stays strong through the remainder of the cx season.

If they release a game with a mix of real and faked riders/teams likely knowing that the community will make a mod with all real rosters (especially considering who the dev is, for this game)… why bother licensing any teams or riders in the first place? That’s like throwing money away.

Is this not a huge copyright violation? How can this game use the real team and riders names along with jerseys, even if just for demo purposes?
