Vingegaard, who was the race favourite in his first participation, took control in the Pyrenees with stage five and six solo victories. The Dane, who also won two stages and the overall title at Paris-Nice earlier this month, is planning a Giro d'Italia and Tour de France double assault later in the year.

I was drinking on the descent and misjudged a corner, Pidcock said in team statement. I overshot it and went down the ravine. It was like one of these horror crashes you see, but I'm very lucky that I am OK.

The ZENDIT is not just a refined e-bike; it's a ground-up manifesto on what happens when you pair World Cup DH suspension logic with the most talked-about motor system in the industry right now.

Pogacar made his decisive move just as he had done two years ago on the Monte Sante Marie gravel section. His UAE Team Emirates colleagues had put the hammer down heading into that section and once Pogacar attacked on a tough climb, he quickly distanced everyone else. Seixas was the rider who resisted the longest even briefly dragging back Pogacar before the world champion accelerated again and disappeared over the horizon for good.

The Australian took control of the race on stage 2, launching a powerful acceleration alongside defending champion Jhonatan Narvaez that no one else could follow, with the pair finishing first and second on the stage. After losing two teammates, including Narvaez, to crashes on the shortened stage 4, Vine also hit the deck on the final day when kangaroos jumped into the peloton.

Nazaré, Portugal, historically a fishing village, has become mecca for big wave surfing. It's home to the largest waves ever surfed, and hosts some of the best surfing competitions in the world. Surfing this area is risky enough, but big mountain skier and surfer Chuck Patterson had to take it to the next level, skiing the world's biggest waves. Tow skiing, as they've named this wild activity, is arguably pretty dangerous no matter the size of the wave.

Mercado Bom Sucesso has been serving a wide range of traditional Portuguese food since 1949. Its modern design is unmissable when walking around the heart of Porto, and it's absolutely worth a stop. While farmers' markets are usually held outdoors, food halls are primarily indoors, and Bom Sucesso is no different. This means that no matter when you're visiting - whether it be the dead of winter or the height of summer - you'll be able to enjoy local delicacies in a climate-controlled environment.

Hop on a plane to Malaga, and you might expect to see passengers in flip-flops and sun hats, ready to spend a week on a lounger with a cocktail to hand. But in recent years, a different kind of traveller has set their sights on the Costa del Sol. Instead of staying by the sea, they head inland, to cycle the mountains of Sierra Nevada.

"They say that the Azores is made up of eight islands and an amusement park," my guide, Fernando Brazil, joked as he drove his Land Rover past one of the island's many colorful chapels, known as impérios. Brazil explained that Terceira holds more festivals than all the other Azorean isles combined. Most revolve around the impérios, which are dedicated to the Holy Spirit and can last up to 10 days, with concerts, parades, and bullfights.

In 2025, Cameron Jones entered the series as a Wild Card and rode that opportunity all the way to the overall men's title. What was once a developmental side door into the Grand Prix is now arguably the most coveted pathway in elite off-road racing. For 2026, six riders (three women and three men) will again earn their way into the series and chase a record $350,000 equal-pay prize purse.

Jonas Vingegaard crashed during training on Monday. Fortunately, he is OK and did not sustain any serious injuries, read a team statement. In general, as a team we would like to urge fans on bikes to always put safety first. For both your own and others' wellbeing, please allow riders to train and give them as much space and peace as possible.

Its time. After 8 years riding for Pivot Factory Racing the time has come for me to move on. What a ride it's been! Holy shit, I'll never be able to put into words how grateful I am for the opportunities that Pivot and BK have given me. But, It's time for me to hang up the boots after chasing World Cup racing full-time for the last 13 years . My heroes became friends and my friends became heroes. I'm proud of what we achieved, and to everyone who has been a part of the journey, thank you so much. Love you all and see you on the trails.
