Report Fabio Jakobsen added another page to his remarkable comeback story, almost two years from the injury which left him fighting for his life, confirming again his extraordinary mental strength and fighting power. That journey, which for more than eight months took him through a long and arduous recovery before pinning on a number again, continued in Denmark, where the 25-year-old racked up Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl’s second victory in as many days after an incredible rush to the line in the final meters of the stage that ended in Nyborg. The day began with Yves Lampaert resplendent in the yellow…

Report Yves Lampaert stormed to victory on stage 1 of the Tour de France, a flat but rain-soaked 13.2km individual time trial, beating a host of specialists on his way to the prestigious Tour de France yellow jersey and making it five years in a row that a Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl rider has worn the iconic tunic. “It’s incredible, I didn’t expect this and I don’t understand how it happened. I was thinking of a top 10, those were my expectations at the start, but somehow I managed to beat the best riders in the world. I’m just a farmer’s…
The XTERRA off-road triathlon racing season heads into primetime tomorrow in Xonrupt, France with the first of four events in the 2022 XTERRA Short Track Series. XTERRA Short Track France challenges competitors to take on 200-meter swim, followed by an obstacle-filled, two-kilometer mountain bike and then a one-kilometer trail run, each done three times in succession (swim-bike-run-swim-bike-run-swim-bike-run). The fast-paced format has attracted the world’s best off-road triathletes to France, including the 2021 World Cross Triathlon Champion, Loanne Duvoisin (SUI), and the reigning World Cross Tri Champ, Arthur Serrieres (FRA). More than 5,000 spectators will be on-site to create a roaring…
Welcome to Cyclry University’s class of 2022. I’ll be your adjunct professor, Jessica. The Tour de France is an historic event with complex tactics, unspoken rules, and ways of measuring victory that may be unfamiliar to fans of other sports. But it’s actually very simple–and fun–to follow! Here’s our first lesson. It will tell you everything you need to know in just ten minutes. Did you enjoy my robotic, masculine voice? Is it how you were picturing me? After completing this first lesson, you’re now an honorary member of Cyclry U’s college cycling team, the Bay State Pedalphiles. And, in…
The world inhales. Ten thousand fans draw silent for a split second as the race leader rises into view, frozen like poetry on the Alpine pass. Everything is still. Then chaos erupts. In France, they call it La Grande Boucle. In America, we call it “Hey ain’t that Tourday France the thing Lance Armstrong won? By the way can you look at my bike, I think it has a flat tire.” It’s the most wonderful time of the year and we can’t wait to spend it with you.

Coming at you from Copenhagen, some skinny men on bikes. We don’t have anything funny to say about it really. We once got yelled at for yelling ‘dope cheat’ at Lance Armstrong at a team presentation in the 2000s, but on reflection that behavior was a little uncouth (though, it turned out, factually accurate). Covid is absolutely laying waste to the team sheets right now. And it probably will continue to do so even after the race starts. For now, the people in the video are still in the race. We think. We hope.
