Woods hungry for more after Tour de France win

Canada’s Michael Woods is already looking ahead after winning a stage at the Tour de France earlier this summer – hungry to accomplish more despite his age.

Having won a stage at the Tour de France and the Vuelta a Espana , he says it would be “really cool” to get an individual win at all three Grand Tours – something no Canadian has done. He gives himself a better chance of winning in Montreal because the course in and around Mount Royal better suits his style as a climber.

“He’s [almost] 37 and just told us he’s done the best numbers of his career,” said Arsenault. “I mean, we see the correlation with his stage win at the Tour de France, he didn’t win that because of a massive crash – he pedalled to victory.” The 2026 world championships are set for Montreal that September. Woods, however, is well aware that Father Time could get in the way of things since by then he’ll be 39 going on 40.
