Tweets of the week: Lando Norris's Tour de France bid, Power Ranger Primož Roglič, and Phil Gaimon 'wins' Roubaix
Here are just a few of our favourite tweets from the last week
We're just a few days away from the end of the cycling season, but fear not Tweets of the Week will continue.

But of course the most prestigious prize of the year is making it into our elite selection of social media content, so who made the cut this week?
This time we have Primož Roglič's outstanding colour coordination, a Tour de France bid from Lando Norris, and a familiar face from the Angliru.

2. Katie Archibald shares an insight into the post-interview procedure of a bike rider
3. Andrey Amador, not content with his support role on the road, is keeping Ineos afloat
