The 2025 road season careers toward the Lille Grand Depart like a Tom Pidcock film and the team are simply trying to hang on. Have we learned anything about the summer’s big guns from the Dauphine and Tours de Suisse? What have the UCI learned about seemingly arbitrary rule changes? (Don’t answer that.)


We also bid a wholly disrespectful au revoir to Romain Bardet and a sycophantic bon anniversaire to cycling’s newest octogenarian Eddy Merckx. Come on, who would you least like to meet in a dark alley?

Cover photo: It may have been before he became the Cannibal but a no-less hungry Eddy Merckx looks on incredulously as reigning Maglia Rosa, Gianni Motta tucks into a bowl of spaghetti during the 1967 edition of the Giro d’Italia. There would be no second victory for Motta, who finished 6th behind Felice Gimondi that year. Merckx would only have to wait another year before winning his first of 5 Giri. The rest, as we know, is history. (Credit: Keystone/Keystone-France/Getty Images)
