Drive to Survive - Tour de France edition

Think it’s actually called Inside the Peloton. Just saw the trailer for this coming out on Netflix. Looking forward to watching this!

Drive to Survive made F1 accessible to alot more people…hope this does the same for bike racing!

Stoked for this and loving the recent trend after Drive to Survive to make similar docuseries about sports that do not receive the same full media attention. Just finished Full Swing and I can’t stand to watch golf on TV…but watched and really enjoyed every episode.

Working my way through it now…good trainer material.

Really lost a lot of respect for some of the golfers that went to LIV.

And Koepka’s wife just struck me as creepy AF and an opportunist.

Is it going to be called Pedal to Survive?

I thought driving was cheating?

I thought it was supposed to be called “Unchained”…seriously.

It really looks excellent. I can definitely see people who don’t already watch cycling tuning in after watching the trailer.

That’s kind of a bummer. Do non bike-racing people know what a peloton is, if not a piece of $$$$ workout equipment?

Think they missed an opportunity on using “Ride or Die” for the series name :sunglasses: I’d totally check that out.

Maybe they’re trying a little search engine optimization by including the word peloton? I agree though, not the most creative title.

None of the titles are…”Drive To Survive” (F1), “Break Point” (tennis), “Full Swing” (golf)

Tired cliches seem to be their brand for names. :crazy_face:

I just hope that if they use Unchained, we get some Van Halen

It didn’t just make F1 accessible, it made it infinitely more interesting. And I say that as a racing fan / amateur race car driving person myself.

I don’t know why they didn’t just call it Ride to Survive. Simple and would clearly signal to people “oh this is the bike version”. Maybe they didn’t want to dilute the main drive to survive brand.
