Here’s the moment a Team dsm-firmenich Post NL rider made a young Tour de France spectator’s day/week/month. The little number flag behind his Scott tells us the rider deserving all the praise is British debutant Oscar Onley who had tried to get into the morning’s breakaway before later finishing 42nd on yesterday’s high-altitude Galibier stage as Tadej Pogačar performed another masterclass up front.
It’s been the Tour of uplifting ‘kids getting bottles’ content, Tadej Pogačar having invited a young fan to the start in Florence who he famously passed a bottle too during the Giro, a video of which got plenty of attention at the time…

We’re all for it frankly. Better that than it getting lobbed into a bush or a ravine…
Obviously we can’t move on without mentioning the Tour of Britain’s contribution to the genre, that clip that was seen around the world of a young cyclist smashing it along the pavement to keep up with pros, rewarded with a bottle, of course.

Illi Gardner knocks a minute off her own Alpe d'Huez Strava QOM with mind-boggling effort quicker than Tour de France times
There was an outrageously impressive climbing performance in the French Alps yesterday, a famous climb tamed in a lung-busting, quad-burning display of mountain mastery. Step forward Illi Gardner (okay, Tadej Pogačar, you were all right too).
The hill-climbing queen of Britain, who has been the national champ in the discipline for the past two years, has a Strava page that’ll impress anyone… it seems just about every day there’s another new climb QOM being conquered. In fact, wait for this, Strava says she has 531 pages of QOMs and CRs (‘course records’, when she’s sometimes inevitably quicker than the men too). With each one displaying 20 that makes more than 10,500 QOMs and CRs. See, I told you it was impressive…
And in the past days she’s been down in the Alps, ticking off some big names: Alpe d’Huez, Col de la Madeleine, Col du Galibier. Yep, not content with smashing the Alpe d’Huez QOM out of the park last week, she returned last night to knock another minute off her previous effort.
Gardner’s 46:47 is a second shy of three minutes quicker than Emma Pooley’s long-standing QOM set way back in 2012, and the 34th fastest time (male or female) ever uploaded to Strava up the famous mountain so regularly raced by the Tour de France and the world’s best.
She averaged 243w for the 46-minute effort and held an unslipstreamed average speed of 17.8km/h up the Alpe’s eight per cent slopes. Gardner’s heart rate monitor shows it was at 186bpm and topped out at 199bpm. Ouch, that’s a proper effort.
Now you’ve read all about it, get back up to that activity and drop some well-earned kudos…
Tour de France stage four — a meme experience
Juan Ayuso has been on the receiving end of the internet’s memes post-stage four. The Spaniard for his amusing inability to come to the front and give João Almeida a turn, presumably because he was on the limit, but not so on the limit he couldn’t sit with the fastest riders for another few kilometres. It gave us all a laugh, even if Almeida unsurprisingly didn’t see the funny side as he flogged himself into a headwind up the Galibier. Cue the memes…

Visma-Lease a Bike took some hits too, after all if you make a big song and dance about how your ‘Control Room’ is going to take your tactical analysis to the next level, you’re probably going to take some stick if all your domestiques get dropped and Tadej Pogačar takes loads of seconds on Jonas Vingegaard.

Time will tell who gets the last laugh on that front, Vingegaard apparently very pleased post-stage, telling the TV cameras: “My time will come.” After seeing how far he’s come since that Itzulia crash just THREE MONTHS AGO, we’re not going to argue…
"The biggest risk to road safety in Richmond Park by far, is that posed by motorists": Reaction to disagreement over speed limit advice in Richmond Park
Yesterday we reported that a group which aims to “represent all cyclists and para-cyclists who use Richmond Park” is in disagreement with the Royal Parks over advice to cyclists about speed limits in the south-west London park.
Last month, the Royal Parks said it would be reviewing its cycling policy “following several cycling-related incidents” and cyclists riding “at excessive speeds” causing crashes. The charity also cancelled cycling club London Dynamo’s time trial events on safety grounds as “they directly encourage cyclists to go faster than speed limit”, although curiously the London Duathlon in September (half of which involves a closed-road bike event) has not been called off.
In response a reader who regularly rides in Richmond Park told us: “The biggest risk to road safety in Richmond Park by far, is that posed by motorists. In this clip, I was riding two abreast. It wasn’t busy, we weren’t holding up queues and queues of cars, it was a quiet evening, but this Audi driver seemed to take offence, and can be seen swerving toward me, far in excess of the prescribed 20mph speed limit. Leaving me somewhat shocked and shaken.
There be Audi drivers taking pot shots at cyclists in Richmond Park this evening. 🙁 pic.twitter.com/l69fHqyeOl
— Chapona Bike (@ChaponaBike123) June 24, 2024
“…And we’re told by the Royal Parks, that an early morning cycle time trial event, has been banned due to safety fears. The best way to tackle safety in the park, is to look at banning motorists. Time and time again, and given plenty of chances to get it right, there are some that still try and hound cyclists out of the park. I know it’s a minority, but that minority is spoiling it for the many careful drivers that always get a friendly wave or ping of the bell.
“The Royal Parks has yet to provide a solution for this, or indeed do anything, but ban a London Dynamo event. They are one of the most respected clubs in the park, and their leadership take safety and their reputation very seriously. It’s all a bit bizarre, and just shows the Royal Parks have some sort of hidden pro-motoring agenda, that they don’t hide very well.”
Thoughts? Anyone else local got any reaction to yesterday’s news?

Meanwhile in Oxford... blanket ban on cycling in public parks set to be reversed
The Oxford Mail reports that laws imposing a blanket ban on cycling in Oxford’s public parks are set to be reversed. Officers have recommended the reversal of the laws, councillor Chewe Munkoge saying that it’s “high time” by-laws were “amended to reflect how our parks are enjoyed by everybody”.
“The proposed changes are a long-overdue, positive step towards creating a more accessible, pragmatic and sensible framework for users to ensure a cleaner, safer environment within our city’s green spaces,” he said.
There has been agreement from Green councillor Emily Kerr who told the local paper that she thinks it “makes sense” as there are already cycling paths at some green spaces, but not others, so it would help if this access was “consistent across the city’s parks”.
She said: “Cycling in parks is always going to be slower than cycling on-road, so I don’t foresee fast and confident cyclists switching to parks. I imagine they’ll be mostly used by children, novice cyclists, and those who are nervous of traffic.”
Four areas, namely Hinksey Park, Lye Valley Nature Reserve and Trap Grounds Nature Reserve will retain the cycling ban following the responses to the consultation.
Cav tinkering, Pog avoids near disaster, breakaway goes for a three-pointer — what's happened at the Tour today?
It’s been quite a sleepy sprint stage for the most part, so not loads to write home about. With 50km to go it has just started to rain and things got a bit nervy when nobody signalled the upcoming traffic furniture and yellow jersey Tadej Pogačar was forced to take evasive action to avoid a crash. Unfortunately for those behind him, his evading and the ripple effect caused others to hit the deck. If only someone at the front had put their arm up and signalled the hazard

With wet roads and a full peloton ramping it up after an easy day, I don’t think anyone will be surprised if that isn’t the last crash today. Fingers crossed everyone gets around safe. We should get a sprint, which means another shot at number 35 for Cav and those who missed stage three rejoining the party. Will Alpecin-Deceuninck, Mathieu van der Poel and Jasper Philipsen dominate? Can Girmay double up? Of course it wouldn’t be a sprint stage without some last-minute tinkering from the Manx Missile. That one was stamped off the bingo card early today…
Perhaps the most entertaining thing to happen so far was Clément Russo going for three, but seeing his bottle agonisingly bounce back.

The queue to congratulate the Manx Missile was seemingly in triple figures, rider after rider stopping to say ‘well done’ to the history maker, who now stands outright as the winner of the most Tour de France stages ever. One of the first was former teammate Geraint Thomas, someone whose career has overlapped and been intertwined with Cavendish’s throughout, from the track and Great Britain through to Sky and THAT Giro sprint in Rome. The 2018 Tour champ told the TV cameras he never stopped believeing.
“It’s unbelievable. I’m so happy for him”

In the post-stage interviews Tadej Pogačar, who was NINE when Cav won his first Tour stage, called the achievement “incredible”, adding: “He came to me and said don’t break the record but I don’t think I can.”

The brains behind Cavendish’s resurgence, coach Vasilis Anastopoulos, was in tears: “You know it has been so many months of hard training with so many setbacks. We spent three months in Greece from 2 April, every day believing and every day training. We went to Turkey and it was like he was done, gone, he’s not going to sprint but we kept believing. We brought him back to Greece and had some really good sessions and were optimistic but on the first day he had heat stroke so we thought we had done something wrong but he did it again.
“We had a plan and stuck to it. Everyone knew exactly what to do. We made a calculation on what pace to follow. He was super strong at the end. He was the old Cavendish.”
There’s plenty more reaction to come, we’ll keep it rolling here on the live blog as it comes in…

Mark Renshaw is a man with more contribution to the record than most, Cavendish’s former lead-out master-turned-sports director heaping praise on his Astana riders post-stage.
“The guys nailed that,” he said. “To be honest, lost my voice already, I didn’t really get to see the final, our TV wasn’t working, it just flashed up during his victory salute and for probably five seconds we didn’t know… amazing… he’s just a fine wine, he just gets better and better. The team had so much confidence in him, we’ve had confidence all year.”
They say champions always believe in themselves.

It’s taken 17+ years but – after a career that’s been one long tale of defiance – Cavendish has defeated the final boss of doubts, obstacles, records, critics, quibbles & conventional wisdom. Surrender would have been totally out of step with all the rest. Now he can finally go.

@tomlew we can discuss both things, I don't see them as mutually exclusive. On the topic of comparison - have a look at the KOM / QOM times on the Mur du Huy ... Demi Vollering's winning time in 2026 is exactly the same as Tadej Pogacar's winning time in 2023. Women are closer than you might think. Let's see how it goes for Lael Wilcox ... she has a chance to set the outright record for riding around the world. On differences, I for sure enjoyed watching the Women's Giro this year and got a chance to see 1 stage. The more open access to the racers is quite surprising and gives extra appreciation for how they interact post finish line.
@tomlew Women's sport should of course remain protected. Hear hear. That women can excel at ultra-endurance, where short-term aerobic capacity becomes less and less important and mental strength/endurance becomes a major factor, obviously does NOT mean that we can set aside protection in other sports where aerobic capacity, strength, reaction time, or whatever, are the major factors - where women are at (varying) disadvantages to men. They're all amazing athletes at these high levels too, of course.
And to reinforce that, the previous record holder appears to have set it at the back end of a successful effort to set a new record for the greatest distance covered in a month - likely she would also have managed significantly further if she'd come to a specific effort fresh.
The 'alongside men' comment was in reference to the overall effort, which was better than any men has managed. The seven day result was in the context of an overall effort of nearly twice the length. If she'd focused specifically on the seven day record she'd almost certainly have gone further. The fact that it set a new women's record anyway likely just shows that few women have yet targeted it.
Do they also have a garage in which they don't keep their car(s)? It would be in keeping...
As far as I know, the men's 7-day record is 3,826.47 km. I am absolutely astonished by both the result and the manner in which the previous record was broken. However, it still demonstrates that women are far behind men in terms of absolute numbers. 15% is far to big a difference to call it "alongside men". Just to be clear: this takes nothing away from Sarah's spectacular achievement. If anything, it reinforces the argument that women's sport should remain a protected category. And that's perfectly fair and fine. Rather than trying to prove that "we can complete alongside each other," which still seems far from true, why not celebrate our differences and diversity?
There's a waiting list for the cycle storage units in my street. Why my neighbours bagged places in them makes no sense, given that they have a cellar with nothing in it.
Data from London shows a drop in crashes since the 20mph speed limits were introduced. There is a certain type of driver that shouldn't be behind the wheel no matter the speed limit though.
She's simply magnificent!
The 20 mph encouraging people to use their phones concept reminds me of possibly my favourite ever Private Eye cartoon, two muggers standing over their senseless victim going through his wallet and one saying to the other, "There's bound to be crime when idiots persist in carrying this sort of money around…" If drivers are admitting that they will break the law if they are given the opportunity to do so then clearly that is openly stating that giving them a licence to drive is about as sensible as giving a drug addict a pharmacist's licence.

For me, it’s been a massive turnaround – when he first arrived on the scene, he came across as an arrogant, rude and bad-tempered oik I had no time for, but over time (and undoubtedly after he met Peta), he mellowed gradually into a thoughtful, respectful (and sometimes still bad tempered!) student of the sport who does himself and that sport massive credit. And the queue of riders waiting to congratulate him said it all.
