Had so much fun with this #Puckyvlog that I had to try and make a few gifs from them 😅 Feel free to use them if you like them!

Happy Tour de France Femmes-day everyone!! 🥳 #TdFF26 Sadly I won't be able to watch most of it (have to work, many bicycles to repair 😅) but hoping to be home in time to see the finish (hoping Marianne Vos can take today's win 🐐🙏)
Just fought Malenia for the first time. She got me six times, but I got lucky on the 7th attempt (which is nice, and in time for me to watch the last stage of TdF 😁) What a beautiful fight! #EldenRing
So a while ago, I mentioned that I was hoping to change my career and cycle more. Since then, I've been doing some courses in my free time, quit my office life ... and now I've managed to convince someone to give me a chance: I am now a (starting!) bicycle mechanic 🫣 (bonus: I can cycle to work 🥳)
Wondering Monitor@wonderingmonitor.bsky.social · 7mo ago...and here we are, at the end of 2025. Speaking for myself: there were some highs, and some lows but that's life. If you're seeing this: #happynewyear wishing you & your loved ones all the best for 2026 with lots of health & happiness 😊 Next year, I'm hoping to change career and cycle more 🚲
Remco be like 😅 (🎥: don't remember who this is from, downloaded this over 2 years ago 😬)
Another intermediate sprint won by Jasper Philipsen 💪 #TdF26 (now if only he would win a stage sprint, that would be lovely 😅)
💐 Congratulations to Mathieu van der Poel on winning the @century21fr combativity award for this 9th stage! 💐 Félicitations à Mathieu van der Poel qui remporte le prix @century21fr de la combativité pour cette 9ème étape ! #TDF2026
Dear Cycling Gods, please grant Mathieu a victory today 🙏🥺

While relevant sports like cyclocross and cross-country running get denied an olympic status, the IOC comes up with such niche sports. Seems like the existing federations gate keeped their own 💰 very well My further analysis 👇 cyclingbottle.blogspot.com/2026/05/opin... #cycling #Olympics

Apparently they created a wall of fame in Amersfoort, celebrating their local athletes. Pretty cool imho. Looks like #PuckPieterse was really pleased 😊 Interview with Puck (in Dutch): wijamersfoort.nl/de-mensen/pu... (📸 Stefan Roelsena, via Bredewo(r)ld on Twitter)
Pfff too warm for me 🥵 and woke up extra early for a morning ride 😴 ....and now I try to stay awake in one of the most boring meetings I've had in years (seriously, I want an office nap or something). Stay hydrated people!
RIP Bobby Prince. His music legacy will live on, making inspired music for Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, countless others. A true legend. And such a nice man, great musician, wonderful, fun-loving man, nothing but happy memories of him. A loss to the world.
About 70 km done, and #Pogi flies away in the #TourDeSuisse 😯 ...and here I was, hoping #MvdP could take a stage 😅 (📸 @lecstappilton on Twitter)
Lol, just realized that today is the birthday of several cycling legends 😅 Eddy Merckx (81, June 17, 1945) Adrie van der Poel (67, June 17, 1959) Sven Nys (50, June 17, 1976) Surely other amazing people were born today as well (Jello Biafra from Dead Kennedys), are there any other cycling b-days?
Baudin said he had food poisoning yesterday morning on the way to the race but had great legs today. His girlfriend gave him a sticker of their cat Aria to stick on his bars, "it was a sign"
