We really hope you enjoy our clips and blogs about the Geology of Cycling. There's much more where that came from, but to keep making these, we're gonna need your help!
All blog writers and presenters of Geo-Sports are volunteers, but our editor and film crew are independent professionals. So to also make a 2025 season, we've started a Crowdfunding campaign.
Please spread the word, donate, and we'll also see you in 2025 🙏🚴🌋!

📣 Le Parc naturel régional d'Armorique, présidé par la conseillère départementale @AmelieCaro_, a été officiellement labellisé #geopark mondial par l’@UNESCO_fr ! 🎉
🏆 Une reconnaissance internationale qui vient récompenser un travail engagé il y a plus de dix ans par les géologues locaux et qui a mobilisé équipes techniques, élus du territoire, partenaires associatifs, acteurs scientifiques et habitants.

Paper alert! High-P metamorphism in the Mesoproterozoic: Petrochronological insights

#TdFF2023 étape 3: Lorraine Tual @_garnetite_ met en avant Yvonne Brière, une courageuse doctorante de la fin des années 1910, qui a parcouru la France à la recherche de roches (très) dures appelées éclogites... #geotdf 1/3

If you want to hear more about a female bad-ass geologist 🔨🪨from the 1910’s, hard rock and Neolithic axes 🪓 stories around today’s 🚴♀️ TDFF stage ⬇️
Really glad to be part of this awesome @geotdf project!

Hard rocks were instrumental in the development of humans.
They used them for all sorts of stone tools like hand 🪓 and 🔪
On the course we find eclogite, a beautiful green and red rock, long thought to be magmatic.
Female science pioneer Yvonne Brière found out they were metamorphosed rocks, which originally formed from the magmatic, basaltic, oceanic crust.
Her peers didn’t believe her then and mocked her, but we now know better!
@_garnetite_ of @GeosciencesR tells you more!

Today the riders race on Swiss cheese. There are holes underneath their wheels everywhere! Is this even safe? How? @vanhinsbergen explains the phenomenon called karst

Read how researchers used an Attom with laser ablation (in Sweden) to map garnet minerals and then a microdrill to remove only the parts needed to accurately date the minerals in particular growth zones using a Nu Plasma (in Canada).

Turns out that a lot can happen and be recorded within less than 1 Ma, in a single garnet grain.
We can now unravel these short stories.
