    [GT] Tour 2026 — Who Wins? The Bus Briefing

Start with the SEMIPRO Training X-Ray: 👉 https://go.semiprocycling.com/go/fqhpza --- The 2026 Tour de France begins in Barcelona — the most southerly Grand Départ in Tour history — with a 19.6km team time trial that's anything but a formality.

The Cycling Debrief is here every stage, every day — this is the bus briefing, and the race starts now. Every stage, we take you inside the team bus — the tactical read, the data behind the drama, and what to watch for next.
