Stage two of the 2025 Tour de France was a wet and wild affair, with rain hammering the peloton from the start. Christophe, Macka, and Caleb Ewan captured the grit and unpredictability of the day, reflecting on how extreme weather tested both nerves and legs across the longest stage of the race.
The mood shifted as the skies cleared late in the day, setting up a high-speed sprint finish. Caleb noted how certain riders seemed unfazed by the chaos, gliding through the finale with calm precision, while others were clearly feeling the toll of two gruelling days.

Teamwork and adaptability were central themes of the day, as riders juggled survival and support roles in the tough conditions. With stage three on the horizon and a flatter profile ahead, the team looked forward to a classic sprinters’ showdown—if the weather holds.
