Che bel gesto di Matthews, davvero. Respect for Eleana and her nonno. Moments like this are why Le Tour = magia.

Great story, but the writing leans a bit heavy on the sentiment. Would’ve loved a tad more race context—course profile, wind, how his TT compares to his 2017 shape.

Quick question: the article says 71st in the TT — what was the time gap roughly? And is Matthews targeting any stages this week or just shepherding through to set up sprint chances?

Genuine goosebumps reading this. Cycling’s about people as much as watts. Fair play to Jayco for letting him linger with fans, not rush to the bus like usual.

Lovely piece. Bling’s always been class on and off the bike. Taking the time after a TT when you’re gassed says everything about Matthews’ character.

- Plugge’s right: the Tour has outgrown some roads. Roundabouts every 500m and drunk spectators equals chaos. ASO needs more nets, more barriers on the final 5k, and better gendarme lines. Vamos, sécurité d’abord!

- Quick question: why is it called the “Dutch mountain” if it’s in France? Is it just because of Zoetemelk and the Orange Corner fans, or did Dutch riders actually dominate there historically?

- Sorry but blaming only the course for Vinge’s crash feels a bit convenient. Lots of teams previewed that descent and flagged the island; why didn’t organisers and DS cars brief harder? Accountability cuts both ways.

- Great to see Plugge linking Alpe d’HuZes and KWF again. Six ascents for charity is no joke. Respect to Nathan VH after everything he’s been through too. Hoping Visma can light it up on switchback

- Love Plugge’s honesty here. Alpe d’Huez brings out the best and the worst: iconic Dutch corner vibes, but the crowd control last time was shambolic. Closing the mountain with a small fee isn’t crazy at all.
