[Other Sport] 2023 Tour de France

[pb21]

Wow, what a brilliant penultimate stage. Can’t recall such a non-time trial final Saturday with the cream all together going for it.

I’ve loved this Tour. Made in part by the huge number of mountain stages.

Yep, was effectively a very exciting one day race, with all kinds of sub-plots and potential winners. Great scenes with the locals supporting Pinot!

There’s always something to brighten up the day. After predictably hideous Manc weather destroyed the test match, we have Paris.

Stunning Versailles, then the glorious city centre.

With the unique talent of Pogacar doing the unconventional.

What a cracking finish to a brilliant edition of this race! Thought no one was going to touch Philipsen again today, so chapeau Jordi Meeus!

Another great straight talking interview from the legend that is Peter Sagan. Let's hope for more impressions then from Frederik Frison to keep the memory alive

Loved the whole event, best 3 weeks of the summer

admittedly it was in 1986, I was a few days shy of 15 and fit . . . and it took us a few hours . . . . They don't race with panniers and tents though.

Currently watching a docu-soap with my daughter, Below Deck Adventure.

Of all the day trips in the world, they’ve taken the yacht’s guests on a bike ride down Trollstigen. I’d never heard of it until you said.

It’s stunning and scary.
