It’s finally here! After all the hype, all of the suspense and excitement, Tour de France: Unchained finally dropped on Netflix yesterday. As expected, it well and truly broke cycling Twitter with just about everyone chipping in with what they had to say about the new series.
Some loved it, some didn’t and some were just a bit in between. For what it’s worth, we loved it and you can check out our review and episode by episode guide if you want a little taste of just what you’re in for before you sit down and tune in. The guide does contain spoilers, though, so steer clear if you don’t know exactly what happened at last year’s Tour.
