I'm not scared of breaking bones or road rash anymore, but I am scared of brain damage, and I think more cyclists should understand why. In light of a very visible mistake in the European time trial championships, I saw an opportunity to share what I know, some of the risks of riding concussed, and what you should do if you think you might be at risk. Concussion risk and protocol has come a long way in all sports over the last few years. Big thanks to Dr. Sprouse for sharing.

A lot of folks requested I do the Vuelta after the Tour de France series. I didn't want to do a stage by stage, but I sat down with my friend Ben Foster to do the highlights, hot takes, and tell you which stages you should watch and why.

They say never read the comments, but I'm making an exception here and going through the comments from angry motorists I've received over the years. I think it might be useful for cyclists to be armed with some of these answers, and for the 99% sane motorists to know what cyclists deal with from that hostile 1%. 

Big thanks to Bike Legal to helping make sure I got this one right.
Hopefully you never need an attorney for a bike accident, but bookmark and follow them just in case:

Remember when the Yates brothers went 1-2? It feels like 9 years ago, but it was actually July 1. For my final episode on #letour 2023, I do a quick summary of each stage, assess the winners and losers of the race team by team, and then get into the finale.

Today's Sponsor is Silca! PHILSENTME at silca.cc  

Today’s stage was a great one-day race, with incessant breakaways, crashes that led to a GC shakeup in the top 10, and the biggest names putting on a show for the stage win!

Check it out, please share it, leave comments, but lets see if we can enjoy it together. Links in profile (video and audio options)

Today’s stage was another chance for the sprinters and supposed to be an easy day, but this race refuses to follow the script. Groups everywhere, GC guys missing splits, Campanearts going again, a groupetto 10 minutes down on a flat stage. Every 10k was a different race scenario, with a photo finish in the finale. I'll break it down for you.
