It's Live

19:32 — March 1st, 2026

It feels strange writing this. For months, this project has lived quietly in spreadsheets, route maps and a handful of conversations. It’s been an idea I’ve carried around in my head. Today, it’s public.

The JUST PHIL RIDE is live.

In just 5 months, I’ll ride the entire 2026 Tour de France route — every stage and every transfer — completely solo and unsupported. Nearly 6,000 kilometres in around 25 days. No team cars. No support crew. Just me and the road.

GOING LIVE WITH this website feels almost as significant as rolling out of Barcelona will. Because this is the moment it becomes real.
