𝗗𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗝𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘀,

You joined us in 2019 as a young, modest rider full of dreams. Back then, even you could hardly have imagined those dreams would one day become reality.

You quickly proved your talent and not long after delivered the team’s greatest success by winning the Tour de France, followed by a second victory just a year later.

It seemed as if the future lay entirely at your feet until everything suddenly came to a standstill after a serious crash in the spring of 2024. Those moments must have felt endless, but you kept fighting.

A few months later you were back in the Tour, once again showing what an extraordinary fighter you are by finishing second behind perhaps the best rider in the world.

You never stopped chasing your dreams. Last summer you claimed your first La Vuelta victory and now, with the Giro d’Italia, you have completed the trilogy.

You have done yourself great honour in reaching this milestone. Achievements like these are reserved for the very best in the sport. But you have not only honoured yourself, you have also honoured the team. Your journey is now Woven Into History, marking a new chapter in our team’s history, and for that we will be forever grateful.

With heartfelt thanks from the whole team. 💌

@parisroubaix Absolutely delighted, secretly I think even Tadej will cone to agree!

@lavuelta An absolute disgrace, surely there are enough Police in the capital city to keep Protesters off the city centre route.

I’m worried that the Supreme Court feel that those who have agency in arranging finance do not have a fiduciary duty towards their clients. Dangerous waters…

By 8.30 this morning I had written an employment reference for one student, a personal tutor support statement for another, and answered two enquiries on ‘Unibuddy’ (in addition to answering nine work emails). I am now going to have TWO boiled eggs with REAL butter on my toast.😁

Watching a report on the progress of the Rob Burrow MND centre, with Rob’s Dad being interviewed and saying “What a country this is” - a superb antidote to the toxicity and despondency of so much of news we read and hear about Britain today.

@GBNEWS Absolutely not, not then again this is not what she has been elected to do. She will lead the party well through its inevitable period of mourning, naval gazing and head hunting, she will promulgate a swing to the right which will make the next election winning Tory leader shine

Looking lively at the City centre Open Day - the beards have it!!

Curious about the origins of #Freemasonry? 🤔

There are several theories, ranging from ancient builders to medieval stonemasons ⛏️⬜
