We wind up the 2021 Tour de France with Ed Hood's thoughts on the final week's action. Was it a good Tour? Will we remember it in years to come? Maybe for one or two standout moments, but it wasn't a vintage year. Ed's Tour round-up.

Ed Hood looks back at the second week of the 2021 Tour de France in his unique style, combining his dissection of the action with his own Tour memories. The Tour from top to bottom - On to Paris.

Instead of being 'roadside' in 'La Belle France' Ed Hood has been 'TVside' in sunny Scotland. Just because he's not at the Tour doesn't detract from his insider view from years of Tour watching. Here is his first 'Rest Day Rant' covering the stages 1 to 9.

Ed Hood gave us the top thirteen 'Bad Ass' riders in the pro peloton recently, since then the list has grown. Twelve more 'Bad Ass' riders have made the cut - Tough as they come!

The 2021 Giro d'Italia lived up to all our hopes and even though the pink jersey was on the shoulders of Egan Bernal from stage 9 to the finish, the race lost no excitement. Ed Hood was glued to his TV set to give us his Giro final summing up.

The first sixteen stages of the 2021 Giro d'Italia have been full of surprises, but maybe Egan Bernal in pink isn't so much of a shock. Ed Hood looks back at the second week of the Italian Grand Tour to give us his perspective so far.

Ed Hood has been in conversation with (lectured to) cycling's Nostradamus - Viktor. He's not impressed with the finals of Milan-Sanremo, Flèche Wallonne and Liège-Bastogne-Liège, comes down hard on the older riders and Sky's ex doctor, plus the price of bikes these days!

As the year 2020 comes to an end, Ed Hood sums up his thought on this strangest, saddest and very different year. Ed has picked just a few subjects which have caught his eye and needed the Hood comment.

Chloe Dygert and Quinn Simmons have both been 'chastised' recently for expressing their opinions on social media. Maybe you don't agree with their views, but we are all allowed to think what we want, or are we? A fool uttereth all his mind: But a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards {Proverbs 29:11}. Ed Hood vents his thoughts.
