100 méadar ó bheith ina laoch gan bás do Ben Healy, ach tháinig Valentin Paret Peintre leis an mbua ar Mont Ventoux i gCéim 16 de Tour de France 2025. Sa eagrán bonus seo de Gaeilge Thar Lear, tá Oisín ar ais ag caint faoin rás agus tugann sé ómós do éacht Ben Healy – duine de na rothaí ba láidre ar cheann de na sléibhte is stairiúla sa Fhrainc. Labhraíonn sé faoi Tadej Pogačar agus a oidhreacht sa spórt – beidh an bua aige san TdF seo (a 4ú ceann) agus is léir anois go mbeidh sé i measc na laochra is mó riamh. Agus ar ndóigh, caitear súil freisin ar chuid de mhórscéalta sheachtain a dó den Tour.

Eagrán bónais atá ann, mar sin níl mórán réamhphleanála ann – rud beag níos spontánaí ná mar is gnách. Bain sult as!

100m from immortality for Ben Healy as he loses out to Valentin Paret Peintre on Mont Ventoux in Stage 16 of the Tour de France 2025. In this episode of Gaeilge Thar Lear, Oisín returns to the race and describes Ben Healy's achievement in being one of the strongest men on one of the most famous mountains in France. He discusses Tadej Pogacar's dominance of this race and his history - how he will go down as one of the sport's greats. He generally goes over some of the stories of week 2 of the Tour.

This is a bonus episode, so there was little planning, and it was a bit off the cuff compared to standard episodes. Enjoy it.
