Everytime I Read Something More Abt George This Week I Get Progressively Sicker. He Doesnt Deserve Anything

pardon me sappy emotional post coming up:

egan bernal just won the colombian national road race. now i first started watching cycling properly in 2019 and egan was the first rider i really fell in love with. after that horrific crash in 2022 it’s honestly been so brilliant just to see him racing, i’ve been so excited just seeing him in breaks.

i saw an interview with him at the start of the 2023 tour and he said it didn’t matter to him if he never won anything again, he was just so happy to be back in a peloton again.

and now he’s won the national title in both the itt and the road race. first wins since the giro in 2021. i barely every cry at this sport but this got me.

2025 is the year of egan guys COME ON

I mean this with genuine sincerity, which I'm sure will be immediately rebuffed, but it is actually heartbreaking to see the steady decline into conspiratorial madness of some Lewis fans. Some people I used to find really funny and have a lot of respect for just... consumed by something irrational and motivated by an echo chamber of their own making. It must be so tiring to be in such a perpetual state of anger and suspicion all the time?

so next season of women's cycling will have :

the legend anna van der breggen coming back from retirement to try to win the tour

the OTHER LEGEND pauline ferrand prevot coming back to road cycling to try to win the tour

demi vollering with actual teammates teaming up with juliette labous and evita muzic

cecilie uttrup ludwig teaming up with kasia in what will probably be the most likable duo in the peloton

Tina about learning from Nando and Lance 😭💚
