Tweets of the Week: SuperSagan, Angryphilippe and bittersweet memories

Two stage races run simultaneously means one thing: a bumper crop of TWEETS. We have sprinting magic, solo wins, exhausted riders, elated victories and a lot of the Wolfpack …

Tirreno-Adriatico

In Monday’s sprint stage, the lion of the peloton is still roaring – although he might actually be the modern equivalent of a Centaur

While the ArgoSunGod made a mockery of Kirby’s commentary to take his second stage

Sunday saw Adam Yates matching his brother’s victory in Paris-Nice on Saturday. Or was it a praying mantis?

G just can’t catch a break sometimes – the worst time for a tangled chain and the world’s slowest bike change on Saturday.

While Michal Kwiatkowski had his mechanical early enough to make sure he put himself in the perfect position to take the leader’s jersey on Sunday

Meanwhile … somewhere in Europe, Mikel Landa‘s win got someone thinking

On Sunday, the race organisers put on touching tribute to Michele Scarponi – the riders responded in kind

Julian Alaphilippe does. not. give. up.

Paris-Nice? Or Strade Bianche?

Cleaner than a clean thing from Clean Town

This should have been in last week’s Tweets, but I don’t care! Jungels BOB JUNGELS v Angryphilippe 

PhilGil getting those legs warmed up for the Classics

Wishing Gaviria the speediest of recoveries! We want to see him in the Grand Tours!
