Rouleur, Issue 142 – The Classics Issue

As spring begins, this latest issue of Rouleur, the ‘Classics Issue’, focuses on the blend of elite performance and the technology behind iconic races. It opens with a tribute to 2025 World Champion Madeleine Vallières, pairing an interview on her rise to the rainbow jersey with a fun look at her Canadian roots through poutine. Performance coach Rachel Neylan then explains why a correct stretching routine is a secret weapon for speed and longevity.

Chris Marshall-Bell tackles cycling’s safety crisis, calling for urgent changes to stop the increasing race crashes, and cycling journalist Felix Lowe joins the dots between corks and cranks as he examines an auction of eighties cyclying-themed wines.
