Joseph Blackmore will not be pigeon-holed as possible Tour debut looms 🇫🇷
The British rider had a huge 2024 and will mix the Classics with stage racing next season
Hi Subscribers,
Today, we have an exclusive interview with Joseph Blackmore, who enjoyed a stellar season on the road as part of Israel-Premier Tech. We caught up with the Brit at his team’s training camp earlier this month to talk about 2024, a possible TDF start in 2025, and how he wants to blend one-day races with stage racing in the coming years.

After a phenomenal season on the road that spanned wins in four stage races, including Tour de l'Avenir and the U23 version of Liège-Bastogne-Liège U23, Joseph Blackmore is ready to embark on his first full season crammed with WorldTour level racing.
The 21-year-old’s all-around ability was clear to see throughout 2024, and with a contract extension at Israel-Premier Tech, he is widely viewed as one of the most promising riders to emerge from the UK in the last decade.
