Podcast appearances and mentions of Julian Alaphilippe

Jonas Vingegaard, Tadej Pogacar, Julian Alaphilippe ou encore Thibaut Pinot ont tous ce point commun d'être au centre de la cinquième et dernière émission d'« À notre Tour » cette saison.    Au lendemain de la victoire finale du coureur danois de la formation Jumbo-Visma, les spécialistes que sont Kévin Guisnel, Dylan Le Mée et Gaspard Bremond envoyé spécial sur le Tour, reviennent sur ce deuxième sacre consécutif de Jonas Vingegaard. Un succès qui suscite des interrogations. Notamment après sa victoire écrasante dans le contre-la-montre entre Passy et Combloux.   Ils sont arrivés plein d'ambition mais les coureurs français sont presque revenus bredouille de ce Tour de France 2023. « À notre Tour » dresse également le bilan des Bleus où seul Victor Lafay a tiré son épingle du jeu avec une victoire d'étape mais les cadors tricolores ont quelque peu déçu.   Thibaut Pinot, lui a vécu son dernier Tour de France avec notamment une 20e étape complètement folle. On parle de tout ça dans cette cinquième et dernière émission de la saison.   Bonne écoute.

Retour sur la victoire hier de l'espagnol, Pello Bilbao. Première victoire d'étape d'un espagnol sur le Tour de France depuis 5 ans, une victoire qui lui permet de remonter à la cinquième place au classement général. 8 coureurs de différentes nationalités ont remporté une étape cette année. Et les coureurs qui souffrent beaucoup cette année de la chaleur. Aujourd'hui, dernière étape de ce Tour en Auvergne, sur les terres du français, Julian Alaphilippe. 

Retour sur la victoire hier de l'espagnol, Pello Bilbao. Première victoire d'étape d'un espagnol sur le Tour de France depuis 5 ans, une victoire qui lui permet de remonter à la cinquième place au classement général. 8 coureurs de différentes nationalités ont remporté une étape cette année. Et les coureurs qui souffrent beaucoup cette année de la chaleur. Aujourd'hui, dernière étape de ce Tour en Auvergne, sur les terres du français, Julian Alaphilippe. 

C'est une étape surchauffée qui a eu lieu ce mardi 11 juillet entre Vulcania et Issoire. Il faisait 43 degrés au sol à l'arrivée, au terme d'une bagarre de tous les instants et un coup de chaud sous le casque de pas mal de coureurs. C'est parti dans tous les sens, et à l'arrivée, la victoire de Pello Bilbao, qui a rendu hommage à son coéquipier Gino Mäder, mort sur les routes du Tour de Suisse. "La première heure de course a été complètement folle", rappelle Nicolas Georgereau, journaliste de RTL. Vingegaard et Pogacar se sont ainsi retrouvés dans un groupe de 30 échappés, qui a fait mal à certains cadors très tôt. "On montait dès le départ, et les routes n'étaient pas très larges, donc il y a eu un moment de flottement qui a duré deux heures", raconte le journaliste de RTL Vincent Serrano. Dans le lot, hélas, Julian Alaphilippe "a beaucoup donné", mais semblait un peu court. Écoutez "On Refait le Tour" avec Christophe Pacaus et les journalistes de RTL.

Top départ de la 110ème édition de la Grande Boucle et 25e départ à l'étranger, à Bilbao, dans une région qui fêtera ce départ comme il se doit. Au programme de ce Tour, 3 400 km, 21 étapes, dont 8 en plaine, 8 de montagne, 1 contre-la-montre en terrain escarpé et 4 étapes accidentées et deux favoris : Tadej Pogačar et le tenant du titre, Jonas Vingegaard. Et pour la première étape, 182km à parcourir, avec un cote qui correspond au profil de l'ancien champion du monde, Julian Alaphilippe. 

"Il y retourne et c'est le plus heureux du monde (...) Il a envie de retrouver le contact du public, de retrouver sa course et d'y prendre du plaisir, donc il met toutes les chances de son côté". À l'approche du départ du Tour de France, samedi 1er juillet à Bilbao, Marion Rousse livre l'état d'esprit de Julian Alaphilippe, son compagnon, qui n'avait pas été retenu pour la Grande Boucle l'an passé. Vainqueur de six étapes en cinq participations et porteur du maillot jaune durant 18 jours en tout (14 en 2019, 3 en 2020, 1 en 2021), le coureur de 31 ans espère se montrer dès les premières étapes. "Il a été reconnaître l'étape de Bilbao", confie Marion Rousse. "Il est parti comme un moine trois semaines en altitude avec son équipe : oui, il est motivé comme un cadet". La jeune femme de 31 ans se livre aussi sur ses autres casquettes : consultante pour France Télévisions, directrice du Tour de France femmes, compagne de sportif de haut niveau et maman d'un petit garçon de deux ans.

Combien de Français remporteront une étape sur le Tour de France 2023, qui s'élance samedi 1er juillet de Bilbao ? Un seul comme en 2021 (Julian Alaphilippe) et 2022 (Christophe Laporte) ? Quatre comme en 2017 (Arnaud Démare, Lilian Calmejane, Romain Bardet, Warren Barguil à deux reprises) ? Qui sera le mieux classé au classement général ? Julian Alaphilippe portera-t-il à nouveau le maillot jaune comme en 2019 (14 jours), 2020 (3 jours) et 2021 (1 jour) ? Non retenu par son équipe l'an passé sur la Grande Boucle, le coureur de 31 ans revient avec les crocs et pourrait briller d'entrée avec deux premières étapes accidentés au Pays basque. Autour de Nicolas Georgereau, Hortense Crépin et Vincent Serrano analysent ses chances de succès et passent en revue les autres Français à suivre sur cette 110e édition, de David Gaudu, 4e du général l'an passé, à Bryan Coquard en passant par Thibaut Pinot, Romain Bardet, Guillaume Martin, Nans Peters, Christophe Laporte ou Valentin Madouas.

Johan, Spencer, and JB break down Jonas Vingegaard's dominant win at the traditional Tour de France warmup race, the eight-stage Critérium du Dauphiné, which takes place across an alpine landscape in Southeastern France, discuss if he is even better than last year, and what it means for his looming battle with Tadej Pogačar next month. They also touch on a few stage winners, and what riders like Christophe Laporte, Julian Alaphilippe, Mikkel Bjerg, and Gulio Ciccone will take from their victories, before discussing how a few disappointing rides from high-profile GC stars like David Gaudu, Mikel Landa, Richard Carapaz, and Enric Mas has opened up the fight for the podium at the Tour.

With the Giro d'Italia now in the rear-view mirror and the Tour de France on the horizon, The Cycling Podcast begins the countdown to the grand départ in Bilbao. As the Critérium du Dauphiné reaches its halfway stage, Lionel Birnie is joined by François Thomazeau and Rob Hatch to discuss what it all means for the build-up to the world's biggest race. Does his stage win mean Julian Alaphilippe is back? Is Jonas Vingegaard emerging as the pre-Tour favourite with Tadej Pogačar on the sidelines recovering from his fractured wrist? We tackle all the big questions from the Tour de France dress rehearsal. We also get a view from the front row as the voice of Radio Tour, Seb Piquet, talks us through the opening few stages.

Depois de todas as emoções do Giro d'Italia o foco começa a mudar-se para França. O Critérium du Daupnhiné começou esta semana, o primeiro teste para vermos alguns dos candidatos à disputa da Grande Boucle em julho, com Jonas Vingegaard a ser o principal candidato à vitória. E as coisas começaram bem na estrada para a Jumbo, com a vitória de Laporte na primeira etapa, mas na segunda tirada viram Steven Kwuijswijk cair e ficar de fora da equipa do Tour. Quem também voltou aos triunfos foi Julian Alaphilippe, mostrando que está em boa forma para o Tour.

C'est un succès à la fois logique et inattendu. Mathieu Van der Poel a dompté le Poggio, arraché Milan-San Remo et dégouté la concurrence. Et pourtant, pour la première fois, il n'était pas favori au départ. Avec ce succès, le Hollandais a-t-il définitivement pris l'ascendant sur ses adversaires ?

De stofwolken van de sterrati in Strade Bianche zijn nog nauwelijks neergedwarreld of het wielerpeloton raast alweer door in Tirreno-Adriatico en Parijs-Nice. Beide deelnemersvelden zijn mooi verdeeld. In Italië vechten klassiekerspecialisten als Wout van Aert, Mathieu van der Poel, Julian Alaphilippe, Biniam Girmay en Tom Pidcock een fiks duel uit, in Frankrijk bekampen Tadej Pogacar en Jonas Vingegaard elkaar. In de WielerFlits Podcast komen beiden ruim aan bod.Parijs-Nice betekent voor Pogacar en Vingegaard een eerste weerzien in een rittenkoers sinds de Deen de Sloveen versloeg in de jongste Tour de France. Het is een eerste meetmoment en bij de eerste aankomst bergop was Pogacar de betere van de twee. Maxim en Youri bespreken welke lessen we hieruit moeten trekken en vooral ook wat het betekent voor later dit jaar.“De Tour de France duurt normaal 21 etappes, maar voor beiden is die wedstrijd eigenlijk nu al begonnen”, legt Maxim uit. “Je ziet het ook terug in de programma's van beide renners, maar ook die van Primoz Roglic. Die veranderen steeds op het laatste moment. Ik denk dat het bewust bedoeld is om elkaar van de wijs te brengen.” Ook Youri sluit zich daarbij aan. “De psychologische oorlogsvoering is nu al begonnen. En met de eerste slag die Pogacar heeft geslagen - die letterlijk lachend in het wiel van Vingegaard zat - is hij toch al in het koppie van de Deen gekropen. Jumbo-Visma zal zeggen dat het pas maart is en slechts Parijs-Nice, maar er is werk aan de winkel. Een nadeel hoeft dit overigens niet te zijn.”Ook staan de mannen uitgebreid stil bij het beulswerk van Mathieu van der Poel in Tirreno-Adriatico, het verstoppertje spelen van Wout van Aert en de vorm van Tom Pidcock, Julian Alaphilippe en Biniam Girmay. Daarnaast ploft ook RIDE Magazine op de deurmat, bespreken ze de stand in WielerFlits Ploegleider en behandelen ze ook de start van het Nederlandse seizoen.Wil je RIDE bestellen?

Endurance News What is the secret new bike tech? IRONMAN Announces New Event on Long Island 70.3 What's new in the 303 Go4Graham Cycling Team and Why it Matters Video of the Week 5 Reasons Why You DON'T Need A Super Bike!   Endurance News:   ‘There's nobody missing' – Gentle says PTO Tour rivals 70.3 Worlds By Tomos Land 26 Jan 2023 After a stellar year which saw her clinch victories at both the PTO Canadian and US Opens, Australian Ashleigh Gentle finished 2022 at #3 in the PTO World Rankings.   Talking to TRI247 as she reflected on the campaign, the Olympian explained her decision to miss the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships in St George, Utah and commended the PTO for assembling the best fields in the sport.   POPULAR STORIES RIGHT NOW Global Triathlon Awards 2023: Iden and Duffy named Triathletes of the Year Jan Frodeno up and running as comeback gathers pace RaceRanger draft detection system goes into competition this weekend PTO vs IRONMAN 70.3 Worlds When quizzed on the reasoning behind her absence at the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships in 2022 when she also had the important matter of a wedding to prepare for back home, Gentle was candid with her answers.   She told us: “At the PTO events, there isn't anyone missing, it is a world class field, with the best athletes at the distance turning up and performing at the events.”   Ashleigh Gentle PTO Canadian Open 2022 finish Photo by Darren Wheeler (www.thatcameraman.com) To further prove her point, in St George the podium was Taylor Knibb, Paula Findlay and Emma Pallant-Browne, all of whom Gentle had got the better of throughout the course of the 2022 PTO Tour in Miami and Edmonton.   For Gentle, the strength in depth that the PTO Tour can offer, along with its importance with regards to world rankings and prize money, makes it a worthwhile substitute for the IRONMAN 70.3 Worlds.   “Apart from the title of being ‘world champion', the PTO Tour has everything you need to feel like you're one of the best in the world if you win. There's nobody missing and you're racing the strongest athletes in middle distance triathlon.”   2023 Worlds dilemma Next year, the PTO Tour heads to Asia, where Singapore will host the PTO Asian Open on August 19-20. A week later, the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships take place in Lahti, Finland for the first time.   Gentle, whilst unable to confirm if she would either be racing or missing the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships, did however flag up the potential issues that could keep her away.   She explained: “Obviously the race is just a week after the PTO Asian Open in Singapore, and the World Championships are in Europe, which is quite a lot of travel for race week and also two very different climates for racing.”   Wherever she races in August, Gentle will be one the main athletes to beat in middle distance triathlon this season.     What is the secret new bike tech behind LAB71, Project Black and 795RS? We go codebreaking... What we know so far about the unreleased bikes and components from Cannondale, Specialized and Look... Specialized Project Black Roval integrated aero cockpit Vittoria Corsa Pro Tires Cannondale SuperSix Evo 4 Look 795 RS Thanks to the internet and social media channels, not much remains under wraps these days, from politicians' tax dealings to celebrity affairs. The same is true of new race bikes and related components.   Fortunately our seemingly insatiable appetite for yet more unreleased bike tech is whetted often during the early part of the season, with off-season sightings given a clearer perspective now that the racing is officially underway. Even the brands themselves are happy to play along, with covert releases given code names as though they were part of a John le Carré novel.   With the Tour Down Under completed and the Vuelta a San Juan Internacional, among others, in progress, we've had the chance to dig a little deeper, look for new angles, and here's what we've found…   SPECIALIZED PROJECT BLACK Specialized remains deliberately vague about its development tech project, only saying that it enables its sponsored teams and riders to test “advanced pre-production products in real-world applications”, and that after receiving feedback “some of these design elements and products eventually show up in future retail product offerings. We call this Project Black.”   The cloak and daggers approach is an intentional marketing ploy, and leaking a few images of unreleased products encourages us to speculate further. Specialized did so in the off-season, with a few products cropping up on the team bikes being used in training camps. Now that the season has begun it's time for them to earn their racing stripes.   S-WORKS TIRES WITH NEW TREAD PATTERN The sighting of a new S-Works Turbo tire is especially interesting given that Spesh released an updated Turbo line-up a few months ago. So what do we know about this Project Black edition?   It was spotted on the Tarmac SL7s of Soudal-Quick Step's Kasper Asgreen and Yves Lampaert and the two riders are perhaps our first clue to its suggested application.   Both riders are one-day specialists, with Asgreen a De Ronde winner no less, and the tread pattern on the tire suggests that the less-than-perfect surfaces and weather patterns of Northern Europe in spring could be the reason for its creation.   Whereas the recently released Turbo tires have a slick centre to help reduce rolling resistance, these 28mm offerings feature both rectangle knobs on the shoulders for improved cornering as well as micro dots running down the crown.   As for the tire's construction it appears the same as the existing Turbo 2Bliss dual-compound tires, including tan sidewalls complete with silver label.   Could these debut at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad in February?   S-WORKS MIRROR SADDLE Next up is a fresh shape for the US brand's 3D-printed Mirror saddle, currently available as the Power and Romin Evo models. The third shape, which again broke cover on the Soudal-Quick Step team bikes, appears longer in profile, with a more rounded rear.   The pressure relief channel too looks longer than on the current Mirror models, seeming to take its cue from Spesh's Phenom mountain bike saddle. The surface perforations, which are a component of the 3-D printed saddles, also look a little different, both smaller and spread further apart. Meanwhile, the honeycomb structure, again a result of the 3-D printing tech, is only visible in the cut-out areas.   Trying to spot the unreleased Mirror saddle at the recent Tour Down Under and San Juan races proved a little tricky, given the riders propensity for sitting down on the very piece of kit we were trying to identify!   CUSTOM SHIV TT AERO BARS These were spotted last year on Remco Evenepoel's TT bike but photos released from Soudal-Quick Step's recent bike fitting session with Retül offer more detail.   While the standard Shiv bars are aimed at a wide range of users and feature adjustability to match these demands, professional riders need only be concerned with finding a single optimum position   Once achieved the adjustment can stop, allowing for the creation of a 3D printed bar with custom geometry for each individual rider - highlighted by the different profiles between Julian Alaphilippe and Remco's TT bars, for example. The integrated computer mounts are a particularly nice touch.   We're still awaiting our first TT of the WorldTour calendar so we've yet to see any of the custom aero bars being used in 2023.   ROVAL INTEGRATED AERO COCKPIT Another Soudal-Quick Step rider, sprinter Fabio Jakobsen, gave us a fleeting glimpse of what appears to be a new, and yet unreleased, Roval handlebar via his Instagram account. The integrated cockpit then appeared on Lotte Kopecky's ‘gram, with a clear point-of-view shot showing the product in question in some detail. And this week Jacobsen gained his first win of 2023 at the Vuelta a San Juan Internacional, with the bars still seemingly attached to his Tarmac SL7.   The cockpit in question will likely replace the two-piece Roval Rapide bars and take design cues from the Spesh sister brand's Alpinist lightweight bars, which are also a fully integrated affair. Riders who prefer to stick with traditional bar and stem set-up will do so using PRO components, just as Evenepoel and Michael Mørkøv are doing at the Vuelta a San Juan.   Judging from the images available Jakobsen isn't the only rider who appears to be using the bars in Colombia, with Bora-Hansgrohe's Sam Bennett winning stage one with what looks like an identical cockpit. It's likely the bars will use the same cable routing as the Alpinist but feature increased aero properties. Whether we see them soon as part of a Tarmac SL8 reveal remains to be seen.   VITTORIA CORSA PRO TIRES The new tires from Vittoria received their first airing at the Jumbo-Visma winter training camps. The ‘Corsa Pro' logo printed on the sidewall was the giveaway that something new was a foot - and one that didn't require Sherlock Holmes-like powers of deduction given that, to date, Vittoria don't have a ‘Corsa Pro' in its race tire line-up.   Since then the tires have been spotted on the race bikes of Team DSM as well, and will be presumably been used by all the Vittoria supplied team. Jumbo-Visma's Rohan Dennis used them at the Tour Down Under to great effect, picking up a win on stage two of the race. Here's what we know so far.   They appear to be tubeless given the tubeless valves - a tubeless valve nut is visible on Dennis' Tour Down Under race bike. They also feature tan sidewalls, which makes them the first Vittoria tubeless race tire to do so. Given the colour of the sidewalls, can we assume that they're of the unvulcanised cotton variety, as used on the Italian brand's other top-tier race tires? And will they replace the current Corsa tires in the line-up albeit with improved rolling resistance à la Corsa Speed?   CANNONDALE SUPERSIX EVO 4 The cat's out of the bag regarding the updated SuperSix Evo, with its appearance on the UCI's frameset list (opens in new tab)adding credence to the number of pictures already seen. The Tour Down Under gave yet more exposure to the latest iteration of Cannondale's all-rounder, with three teams using the bike in Australia.   Race images clearly show the frame's aerodynamic enhancements as well as dropped stays, which seem even lower than the outgoing model, and the use of a threaded bottom bracket.    Interestingly, while the bikes used by the EF Education teams featured the Lab71 decal, those ridden by the French Women's Continental team St Michel-Mavic-Auber93 did not.   The UCI list showed that the SuperSix Evo 4 would feature three models, including a Hi-Mod version. While currently the Lab71 ‘project' is little vague, with the brand describing it on its website as “Cannondale's best, done better”, perhaps in the case of the new SuperSix, its inclusion on the frameset denotes that it's the top-tier offering, while St Michel are riding one of the lower tier frames?   LOOK 795 RS The Tour Down Under also gave the unreleased and still unnamed Look bike(opens in new tab) (possibly the 795 RS), ridden by Cofidis, some more air time. In fact, it racked up its first WorldTour victory, as did the man riding the bike, Bryan Coquard. A pro for ten years, the man from Saint-Nazaire had won 48 times previously but none at the sport's highest level.   As for the bike it does appear it will be Cofidis' day-to-day machine. Where does this leave the 795 Blade and the 785 Huez bikes we're not yet sure? Given that the bike looks to be an aero all-rounder - integrated cockpit, deep and sculpted headtube, D-shaped seatpost and dropped stays - could the French team use the latest bike in a similar fashion to the likes of Bora-Hansgrohe and Soudal-Quick Step, who rely heavily on the Tarmac SL7 rather than having dedicated aero and climbing bikes?   IRONMAN Announces New Event on Long Island with IRONMAN 70.3 New York – Jones Beach Triathlon January 25, 2023   - Inaugural IRONMAN 70.3 New York - Jones Beach triathlon scheduled to take place Sept. 23, 2023; General registration to open Feb. 1, 2023, and can be accessed by visiting, www.ironman.com/im703-new-york - IRONMAN 70.3 New York - Jones Beach first IRONMAN branded event to come to Long Island and only 40-minute drive from New York City or 30-minute train ride from Penn Station JONES BEACH, N.Y. / TAMPA, Fla.

By Becky Furuta   I had five minutes. That's all the time the doctor would allow while she was under supervision. Five minutes to deliver her toothbrush and pajamas, a phone charger, and some slippers to keep her feet from freezing on the cement floors of the ward, and to hear her tell me why she had tried to kill herself. She couldn't look me in the eye. She has slash marks on her arms and legs from years of cutting herself. And underneath a long hospital gown, my little sister disappeared – swallowed up by the darkness in her mind and her own, brutal thoughts.   Go4Graham is a community-based movement to shred the stigma surrounding mental health. We promote mental wellness through cycling and outdoor sports in Colorado and beyond. It was started to honor Graham Stingley who died in 2005 age the age of 23 after battling depression and anxiety for most of his short life. If you want to join this movement please check out Go4Graham.org or @Go4Graham on social media, or will@Go4Graham.org.   At the time, I couldn't imagine wanting so desperately to die. I had no idea what it was like to silently drown in the shadows of life. The feelings that attached themselves to the most pivotal moments of her life defied any language I knew to identify them.   And then came December 2019.   I left for work around 6:30 in the morning, knowing I wouldn't hit many lights. Wouldn't be much traffic, either. I left my neighborhood and drove the highway along the Flatirons because I liked the view and because there was one section of road with a long, dangerous-looking rocky slope. If the roads were covered in ice, it seemed like everything could end right there.   And that morning, it was where I decided to kill myself.   I can't explain how things had come to that point. I was successful. I owned three businesses, all of which were doing well. I was not unhappily married, and my kids were healthy. I had a career as an athlete, and people looked up to me. I was traveling the world, racing a bike, surrounded by fans. My social media was a sea of ‘likes.' And all I wanted was to die on that stretch of road.   I was in the worst possible place when I called my team director, and slowly, I backed away from the cliff and toward the sound of her words as she promised me that we would figure things out. The team went to work finding me the resources I needed. They saved my life. Cycling saved my life. And it continues to every day.   Exercise has been proven scientifically and anecdotally to improve mental health. Cycling forced me to get up on days when I didn't want to, and it brought me outside and into the world. It gave me a sense of connectedness and joy. I could stop thinking about everything else when I was on the bike, and focus on my body and my efforts. It was peace.   I was sitting at a tiki bar in Claremont, FL having just attempted to break a record on Sugarloaf when my buddy, Taylor Ross, started talking about Go4Graham Foundation. Taylor's enthusiasm for the organization was palpable, and he talked at length about growing up not thinking about mental health or understanding that our mental wellness is dynamic and requires care. He spoke of people being trapped under the waves without seeing an end to the hardships, and how important it is to know that things will change in time. He talked about how sports and community can save lives. I was sold.   Go4Graham was founded following the death of Steven Graham Winter Stingley, who died in 2005 after a fatal interaction between the antidepressant medication he had been taking and an OTC cold medication. Graham's brother, Will, founded the organization both to honor his brother and after confronting his own mental health challenges.   “I've come to terms with the fact that (depression) is something I will have to manage for the rest of my life. But it gives me perspective. It helps me prioritize my life. It has motivated me to adopt a healthier lifestyle.” And, although Will won't say it so directly, his work with Go4Graham has given purpose to others.   Go4Graham has created a network of athletes and ambassadors who use an evidence-based program designed by the University of Colorado Johnson Depression Center to conduct training to help diminish the stigma behind discussing mental health issues and to intervene in times of mental health crisis. The foundation partners with mental health professionals to conduct workplace wellness programs around suicide prevention and stress management. Runners, cyclists, skiers, and other athletes get peer support and engage in storytelling to elicit mental health conversations and to erode the challenges of talking openly about mental health issues. They encourage the use of physical activity as a mechanism to improve mental wellness and gain a sense of community.   Team member Kit Hinders explains, “The unspoken bond between us all is a beautiful support system. We have all loved and lost someone to negative mental health consequences. That experience unites us to ‘Shred the Stigma' that surrounds mental health. I wish we could walk around with swords slicing through cultural norms, but our athletes and ambassadors are much more tactful. Join us. You just might find out that it rewards you as much as others.”   It took me time and therapy and a lot of support to calm the chaotic thoughts in my brain. My first meeting with my psychologist was the most awkward staring contest of my life. Eventually, I unfolded the saddest parts of my life to her, learned some coping mechanisms, started eating better, and stopped focusing so much on the bike as a career and instead on finding my love of the sport again. And to be honest, I still struggle from time to time with a kind of panic I can't describe, thoughts of inexplicable sadness, days of exhaustion and nights when I'm haunted in my sleep. My teammates with Go4Graham can often relate, which makes it easier to get through.   Go4Graham empowered me to share my challenges with mental health, and to do it in a way that helps build support for others struggling with mental illness. All of us, together, are conveying that mental health conversations shouldn't be stigmatized, and that people shouldn't risk suffering in isolation because they are either afraid to be vulnerable or unsure how to best access help. In so many ways, athletes within Go4Graham are reassuring people in their lives that we won't let them sit alone with the thoughts troubling them. We're making space for the emotions often pushed to the margins.   Of course, that doesn't mean that the team isn't serious about sports. Hinders explains, “The variety of athletes creates a culture of acceptance and exploration. On any given ride, we combine roadies, mountain bikers, gravel specialists and elite cyclocross racers. Having ‘a little bit of everything' helps us push our limits as athletes and as humans. I've never been part of any team that does so many sports so well.”   Athletes with Go4Graham consistently stand on race podiums all over the state. There are weekly training rides and team trips to race or train together. These events are marked by acceptance and support, but also a lot of laughter and the kind of silliness you would expect from people clad entirely in Spandex.   Four years ago, I decided to commit my business, Avenue Vision, to sponsoring Go4Graham. Last Thursday night, I hosted Go4Graham athletes and fellow sponsor, Cuore Cycling, at the office. We threw down hot carbs from Woody's Pizza a few beers as cyclists and runners tried on kits to ensure proper fit and placed orders for new sunglasses. The kick-off was designed to guarantee that everyone had the apparel needed to start their season and to introduce new athletes to those who have been with the organization for many years. For me, it was an opportunity to hug old friends and hold hands with some of the humans who walked me through my toughest times and to talk about the season ahead. Athletes have lined up everything from marathons to the country's biggest gravel races and a skimo challenge or two over the course of the next twelve months. There are big, audacious goals on the table.   I've been in this sport for so long that I don't know what, exactly, is up ahead for me. I do know that Go4Graham will be part of that picture for a long time to come. I know how hard it is to pretend everything is OK when it's not, and I know it's no way to live. I know that running, cycling and skiing are my sanctuaries where things just seem to work. I am glad to have the opportunity to help change the way we all talk about and address mental health, and that purpose feels really good. Aligning that mission with my interests and my business feels even better.   If you're interested in joining the movement or participating with Go4Graham, feel free to contact the organization. info@go4graham.com     Video of the week: 5 Reasons Why You DON'T Need A Super Bike!     Closing: Thanks again for listening in this week.  Please be sure to follow us @303endurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment.  We'd really appreciate it!

Le grand débat sportif du week-end ! Tous les samedis et dimanches de 9h à 12h, « Les Grandes Gueules du Sport » donneront un avant-goût des week-ends sport sur RMC. Christophe Cessieux sera aux côtés des consultants Olivier Girault, David Douillet, Marie Martinod et Stephen Brun. Cette année, le capitaine de l'Équipe de France de basketball Nicolas Batum s'ajoute à la Dream Team Sport dans ce rendez-vous 100% sport, pour échanger et débattre sans tabou sur l'actualité sportive !

C'est la nouvelle attraction du cyclisme mondial, et il assume son statut : Remco Evenepoel, seulement 22 ans, a écrasé la concurrence lors des championnats du monde de cyclisme en Australie. Le Belge va porter la tunique arc-en-ciel pendant 1 an, dépossédant Julian Alaphilippe qui s'en sépare après deux années consécutives... Quid des Bleus, dont la stratégie a possiblement fait le jeu d'Evenepoel ? Pourtant, la France est allée chercher la médaille d'argent (inespérée ?) grâce à Christophe Laporte. 

Roger Federer part sur une défaite. Julian Alaphilippe remet son titre en jeu aux Mondiaux. L'Angleterre sombre en Ligue des Nations. Programme chargé en Top 14 aujourd'hui.

The World Championship Road Race is one of the most coveted races of the year and this time in Australia it looks like the favourites are defending champion Julian Alaphilippe, Remco Evenepoel, Tadej Pogacar, Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel. But who will be in the rainbow jersey in 2022?

A quelques jours des championnats du monde de cyclisme, Julian Alaphilippe peut-il décrocher un 3e maillot arc-en-ciel d'affilé, alors même qu'il a dû abandonner la Vuelta après une énième chute ? Ces mondiaux sont sous les feux des critiques, après plusieurs polémiques. L'équipe de Grand Plateau donne ses favoris et revient sur ces nombreuses polémiques.Casting : Christophe Cessieux, Cyrille Guimard, Arnaud Souque 

From despair to delight!!! Simon Yates is out with Covid but BikeExchange Jayco dug deep to put Kaden Groves in front and he delivers big time, winning stage 11. Julian Alaphilippe also crashes out on the stage and we talk about the impact of Covid on the relegation zone battle in 2022.

Mart en Maxim blikken terug op de Vuelta in Nederland! Voor vele toeschouwers was het wielrennen een leuke weekendbesteding. Er is een mooi visitekaartje afgegeven, maar er zijn ook punten van kritiek. Tijdens de Vuelta worden er evenementen georganiseerd voor alle sponsoren van de wielerkoers. ‘Partijtjes' genoemd door Mart. Deze ‘partijtjes' van de sponsoren stoten de leden van De Kopgroep tegen het zere been. Mart was op zo'n ‘partijtje' aanwezig en vertelt over zijn ervaringen daar. Een van de grootste wielrenners op dit moment, eindigde gisteren op plek 69. De Señor 69 van vandaag is Julian Alaphilippe. De Fransman heeft veel tegenslagen te verwerken gehad, maar de leden van De Kopgroep kijken ook naar de hoogtepunten van zijn carrière.

Le public devra se trouver un autre chouchou. Julian Alaphilippe ne participera pas au Tour de France cette année. Son équipe, Quick-Step a préféré l'écarter, estimant que le Français de 30 ans n'est pas suffisamment remis de sa lourde chute il y a deux mois sur la classique Liège-Bastogne-Liège. Le coureur comprend, mais évidemment il est très déçu.

Julian Alaphilippe ne participera pas à la Grande Boucle cette année. Ainsi en a décidé son équipe, la Quick-Step, après sa chute sévère sur une classique belge en avril dernier. Une décision finalement sans surprise, y compris pour le coureur de 30 ans.

Romain Bardet, Thibaut Pinot, David Gaudu, Julian Alaphilippe : les tricolores seront tous là ou presque sur les routes du Tour du France. Une première depuis 3ans. Mais pour quoi faire ? Et surtout, comment rivaliser face à Roglic et son armada et Pogacar et son talent ? Les équipes de Grand Plateau tentent d'y voir plus clair à 3 semaines du départ du Tour de France.

Remco Evenepoel tog sit første monument på den helt rigtige måde, da han vandt et Liege-Bastogne-Liege, som også blev præget af et voldsomt styrt, hvor Evenepoels holdkammerat, Julian Alaphilippe kom slemt til skade. Vi taler også om Giro-opvarmningsløbet Tour of the Alps og om det igangværende Romandiet Rundt, der fik en dramatisk afslutning i dag. Der er interview med Cecilie Uttrup, som glæder sig til det første World Tour løb for kvinder på dansk grund.

Julian Alaphilippe pensait pouvoir enfin décrocher sa victoire sur Liège-Bastogne-Liège. Mais maudit, il a été victime d'une chute spectaculaire qui aurait pu avoir de très lourdes conséquences et a fini à l'hôpital. Retour sur cette course très compliquée pour le Français et sur la victoire de son coéquipier Remco Evenepoel. Doit-on considérer le jeune Belge comme le futur grand rival de Tadej Pogacar ?

Since the severe crash of Remco Evenepoel back in 2020, everyone has been wondering when he would be back on form. Today was that day. He even described it post-race as his best ever.  There was a big crash at 59k out forcing favorite, Julian Alaphilippe to abandon. It will take some time to find out what riders sustained injuries that might affect participation in the Giro D' Italia.

La clásica más antigua del calendario, la Lieja, empezó con la ausencia de uno de los favoritos, Pogaçar, quien tuvo que cancelar por problemas familiares. Otra noticia importante fue la caída masiva a falta de 60kms que eliminó muchos ciclistas, entre ellos el gran favorito Julian Alaphilippe.  Pero todo eso no le preocupó a Remco Evenepoel, quien se fue en solitario a falta de 30min en la subida de La Redoute y nos regaló una exhibición raramente visto.

Julian Alaphilippe and Tadej Pogacar were the early favorites and it even looked that way until the final climb. Dylan Teuns was on peak form for the day but it was the amazing performance of 41-year-old Alejandro Valverde in his final season that had us talking.
