Netflix’s Tour de France: Unchained, the series that brought us behind-the-scenes drama, questionable team tactics, and enough lycra to outfit a small nation, is reportedly coming to an end. After three seasons of showcasing the highs, lows, and questionable mid-race snack choices of the men’s Tour de France, the streaming giant has decided to pull the plug. The third season, set to air in June 2025, will cover the 2024 Tour de France, where Tadej Pogačar reclaimed his crown in a battle that had us all on the edge of our sofas.

And let’s not forget Pello Bilbao, the ever-dependable Basque, who…
Report Stage 4 of the Volta Valenciana was supposed to be a day for the sprinters. You know, the kind of stage where everyone pretends to care about the breakaway for five hours before the big boys flex their quads in the final kilometer and the rest of us yawn into our espressos. But Santiago Buitrago, the ever-polite Colombian, decided to crash the sprint party and take home not just the stage win but the leader’s jersey too. Rude? Maybe. Effective? Absolutely. The day started with the usual suspects: a breakaway of plucky adventurers who knew their fate was to…
