Il Lombardía 🍂 2026 #raceinverse:

How good do you feel, with good legs
Pogi would have sealed the deal, with good legs

Seven passed the Madonna on the way to Como
Heard the bells begin to peal, with good legs

Giro dell’Emilia Uomini ⛪️ 2026 #raceinverse:

Reel in the break
Don’t let them fake
Tiredness
too much at stake
Wait for San Luca
Keep the fuga
In sight
Wait! Is that right?
Piganzoli takes flight!
But not with climbing might
‘Twas downhill
What skill!
No, no chill pill!

Giro dell’Emilia Donne ⛪️ 2026 #raceinverse:

To win the race from a breakaway
One goes hard, goes early and holds the gap
Alessia Vigilia did it exactly thataway
She went hard, went early and held the gap
But then she failed to ride away
As the bunch closed on the next San Luca lap

Worlds Road Race ME 🌈 2026 #raceinverse:

Pogi’s distant shadow loomed like a beast
Over the race, shaping, sculpting, steering
Many attacked like a rocket released
Unsuccessful, seduced by the cheering

Worlds Road Race WE 🌈 2026 #raceinverse:

It was the longest women’s race
One eighty km they would face
One wonders how riders would fare
If and whether they did prepare
For the inevitable chase

That’s a wrap for all Grand Tours and stage races for #raceinverse 2026.

Only the worlds, Il Lombardía and Giro dell’Emilia to go. Oh, and Paris Tours.

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 21 #raceinverse:

There was a young man called Tobias
Who had a slightly serious
Problem he reckoned
He kept coming second
But finally he made it to the line first, delirious

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 20 #raceinverse:

Mikel Landa turns back the years
Quelling (briefly) retirement fears
Sepp and Richie flip the table
But keep up with them, Gall is able

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 19 #raceinverse:

Never say die says our Eddie
As he eats up the gap, steady
Passing poor Santi, heartbroken
On his way to glory, ready
To rock, Irish fire awoken

Sorry - been manic at work so I haven’t watched the last 3 stages of La Vuelta. So no #raceinverse.

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 18 #raceinverse:

Küng wins the TT
Rogla tries so valiantly
But Más holds the gap

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 17 #raceinverse:

Stage wins are fodder
For Brennan, marauder
Deffo not a plodder
Van Aert, his applauder

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 16 #raceinverse:

It looked too easy
As Wout delivered Brennan
Almost to the line

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 15 #raceinverse:

Wout van Aert mugs Thibau Nys
On this hottest of very hot days
He got in the break on strength and thirst
For glory, not water, to come in first

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 14 #raceinverse:

There was a young lad called Brenner
Who, for climbs, deffo has a yen, er…
He duelled with Santi
Break out the Chianti!
Next time for stage wins, he’s worth a tenner

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 13 #raceinverse:

Wout
Chases down the
Fuga de la fuga
And starts a fuga of his own
To win

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 12 #raceinverse:

So Jakob Omrzel
Announces himself, winning
On Calar Alto
While Mas times a teammate catch
To gap poor Roglič and Gall

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 11 #raceinverse:

Only one climb in the stage today
The sprint teams were not led astray
Who else but Brennan has a go
And with the hattrick runs away
His lead out putting on a show

#LaVuelta 2026 Stage 10 #raceinverse:

There was a young man called Bastien
Who, while the front two waited a past aeon
To launch their sprint
With a steely glint
He rocketed past, a blur of fast neon
