Ça ressemble à quoi l’ambiance sur le mythique col du Tourmalet pendant le Tour de France ? Chenille, concert de flûte, barbecue… Brut a passé la journée avec Liam et ses potes.

Avec les supporters dans le Tourmalet

Proud of my piece on women in cycling and trans issues in sport - with thanks to @sullivansa1 And before anybody bangs on about the 'science', try looking at the issue through a human rights lens for a change

The charmingly chilly roads of the Arctic. The hellishly hostile route up Mont Caro. Heart-breaking stories from the COVID frontline. Female champions who beat male champions. Female champions who became male champions. And magical BMX memories. Issue 28: bit.ly/cq28print
The cover of Conquista - The Cycling Quarterly, issue 28 features the white Conquista logo on a black background. The page is filled with an illustration of a man riding a bike on a velodrome track. He is holding a magazine in his left hand while sipping from a coffee cup in his right hand. As he reads the magazine he pedals with his left leg while steering the handlebars with his right foot.
