Interesting to note Simon Yates has already put around six minutes into Adam Yates to take a commanding lead in the Unofficial Best Yates competition.

Dave Brailsford is back at Ineos Grenadiers and, I assume, his first job was designing this jersey on a Friday afternoon after a couple of bottles of rosé.🤮

I'm back in the pages of @cyclingweekly.com, again, today. I spoke to a raft of time trail record breakers from 2024 who shared their fun, and sometimes painful, stories of their record rides.
