Was anyone able to keep watching the Euro men's race on TNT/HBO, I couldn't find a stream.

very bad news. You can't build women's cycling by only creating the top of a pyramid while the foundations keep crumbling away with no teams and no races for non-WWT level riders

USA rode brilliantly, and as a team, they bloody deserved that. McNulty deserved that. But that was a ridiculous race. Brilliant.

If I give you some money it's not out of the goodness of my heart, I'd like something in return. If you give me some money it's fine if we have the same arrangement. So I won't give you money and you don't give me £36m.

Immediately before the final climb of stage 1 of the Tour de France Femmes the race passed Olympic museum in Lausanne, where stage 1 of the 2022 Tour de Romandie Féminin finished. Arlenis Sierra (Movistar), took her only European WorldTour victory that day and raced the Tour today too.

I love the ride from the Galibier towards Grenoble, the way today's stage Tour is taking. I took this there in 2017, the day after Annemiek van Vleuten won La Course.

The Sigma Sports and Rouvy ads during the TdF coverage have one thing in common; they portray cycling as serious, something earnest to be suffered and endured. Whatever happened to freedom, exhilaration, well-being? What happened to enjoyment?

Good to see the Tour of Britain Women expanding to five stages, but in claiming it's the longest edition ever is denying the existence of the Women's Tour, run by Sweetspot. The 2018 Women's Tour was 5 stages and 43km longer than this year's race.

I love "Don't Let Me Down" by the Beatles, but hearing it in every ad break during the Tour de France is gradually changing that.

My outstanding memory of Ben Stokes playing cricket is Headingley 2019. I was following the match as best I could while working at the Ladies Tour of Norway, after the final stage chatting with the Australian staff on the Mitchelton Scott team, admitting England couldn't match the Aussies.

I think the group stage of the World Cup should be called the Round of 48. And sod the romance, why isn't the third round of the FA Cup called the round of 64?

In May 2016 I pitched a feature interview with Anna van der Breggen. She gave me an hour of her time, then the publication changed their mind. A few weeks later she was Olympic champion. 10 years later this is the kind of thing that happens to freelancers.

If you're interested Henry Nowak's murder, and the subsequent fall out, this article sets a lot straight. It includes judge's comments. I still don't like the officer's comments, but neither does the author of this excellent piece. www.ft.com/content/aa94...

Kemi Badenoch says his killing needs to be seen as a ‘Stephen Lawrence moment’ but the failures in both cases differ

Why do the idiots of the world see something where there's nothing. Why can't the police handling of the scene of Henry Nowak's be pure incompetence? In 26 years of front line policing I never had anyone reminding me of government policy as I arrived. I just cracked on.

I cannot believe how Farage felt able to openly incite people to act unlawfully. It worked, they're rioting Hampshire. And best? Front line coppers I know have never heard of this guidance which allegedly promotes inequity. Farage and his acolytes are incredibly dangerous.

The Ca' del Poggio, which features as the final climb in today's Giro stage, has also featured in the women's race. In 2017 it formed part of stage 3 which finished with a bunch sprint won by Hannah Barnes. The climb came further from the finish than today, though.
