Virenque spotted alone

A fan spotted Richard Virenque walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 16, 2025. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Truth or rumor, when news that the athlete was splitting hit the internet Saturday (May 17), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
