It's been an exciting Tour de France so Far...
With today being the first rest day, we felt it was a good time to recount the amazing race that's unfolded during the first 10 stages. The coveted yellow jersey has changed riders frequently, earlier race leaders have crashed out, Jonas Vingegaard has yet to have the spark we always hope to see from him, yesterday delivered an unbelievable breakaway at mile 0 from MVDP and Alpecin-Deceunick teammate Jonas Rickaert for almost 174km, and an EF-Education rider has donned the yellow jersey? We're loving the excitement.
Current GC race leaders:
1. Ben Healy: EF Education - Easy Post
2. Tadej Pogacar: UAE Team Emirates XRG (+ :29)
3. Remco Evenepoel: Soudal Quick-Step (+ 1:29)
4. Jonas Vingegaard: Team Visma Lease A Bike (+ 1:46)
5. Matteo Jorgenson: Team Visma Lease A Bike (+ 2:06)
Current Team Standings:
1. Team Visma Lease A Bike
2. UAE Team Emirates XRG (+ 16:45)
3. Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team (+ 28:12)
4. Groupama-FDJ (+ 29:07)
5. Arkea- B&B Hotels (+ 29:41)
We're looking forward to what the next stages will bring and can't help but be inspired by some of the bikes the pro's are riding...
1- Visma-Lease a Bike
Riding: Cervelo
The historic team is currently leading in the points category. With notable powerhouse names like Jonas Vingegaard, Wout Van Aert, Simon Yates (Stage 10 winner), Matteo Jorgenson, and even Colorado native Sepp Kuss.
TPC always has a great range of Cervelo Bikes for you to choose from, including this limited edition Visma-Lease a Bike Replica:

2- UAE Team Emirates XRG
Riding: Colnago
Another powerhouse team lead by one of the greatest road cyclists of all time, Tadej Pogacar. Tadej is a heavy favorite to win this year's TdF and currently sits in 2nd place just 29 seconds behind Ben Healy.
TPC doesn't get in as many Colnago's as we do Cervelo's and when we do, they do quickly. Ride the latest and greatest from the historic brand like this Colnago V4Rs:

3- Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team
Riding: Van Rysel
This team hasn't made any big splashes this year, but their consistent results as a team have managed to work them into an impressive 3rd place as of the 10th stage with Felix Gall being their team leader.
Of the hundreds of brands we've stocked over the years, surprisingly, TPC has never had a Van Rysel bike listed on our site. So, for the meantime, we had to borrow an image from Van Rysel to drool over. If you have a Van Rysel from 2018 or newer in good condition you're looking to get rid of, you could be the first to sell us one!

4- Groupama-FDJ
Riding: Wilier Triestina
Another team that hasn't made the headlines during this years TdF, but has several consistent riders putting up strong performances that have helped their team reach the number 4 spot as the first 10 stages wrap up.

Honorable Mentions:
Alpecin-Deceuninck (16th)
Riding: Canyon
While their team standing's aren't as strong (currently 16) Alpecin-Deceuninck is making their presence known. They kicked off this years tour with 2 of their riders claiming the yellow jersey early on: Jasper Philipsen won Stage 1, Mathieu Van Der Poel (MVDP) won stage 2. In stage 3 Philipsen was involved in a gnarly crash that forced him to leave the tour. Then, again in Stage 9, MVDP and his teammate Jonas Rickaert gave a big show by launching an immediate breakaway from the gun. Impressively, they held it for almost the entire 174km stage only to be caught with just a few hundred meters left.

Movistar Team (9th)
Riding: Canyon
Movistar team has a long history of success at the Tour de France dating back to the 80's. One of their most notable riders in recent years was Nairo Quintana. While they're current roster doesn't necessarily have any stand-alone stars, their consistency has put them towards the front of the team standings at the end of Stage 10.

EF Education - Easypost (8th)
Riding: Cannondale
There's something about EF Education - Easypost that makes it hard not to root for them. Maybe it's the way they push boundaries with kit and bike design (sometimes controversial). You can also check out one of their boldest bike paint jobs here.
Boldness aside, EF Education Easypost has had their share of star-studded riders over the years. This year, they've managed to finish these first 10 days of the Tour de France with Ben Healy in the coveted yellow jersey.

Ineos Grenadiers (7th)
Riding: Pinarello
This year Ineos Grenadiers' long time rider Geraint Thomas is racing his final TdF. At 39 years old he's the oldest rider in the tour and we love it.

Soudal Quick-Step (11th)
Riding: Specialized
Soudal Quick-Step has seen their fair share of the spotlight in this years TdF with victories in stage 3, 5, & 9. Coming into the 2025 TdF Soudal Quick-Step rider Remco Evenepoel was clumped into the top 3 favorites to win the race. Being one of the best time trialers, Evenepoel smashed Stage 5, winning by 16 seconds.

Red Bull - Bora - Hansgrohe (6th)
Riding: Specialized
This team is lead by long time rider Primoz Roglic, who specializes in climbing and time trials. At 35, Roglic is one of the older riders in this years TdF, but his consistency and history put him in the running as one of the potential favorites coming into the race. As of the end of Stage 10, Red Bull - Bora - Hansgrohe sits at an impressive 6th as a team.
