How it spread

Trace the origin

Froome replaced Bentley’s luxury cues with bicycle sounds and a water-bottle flick. A named r/peloton relay brought the seed to readers who explained the parody trend to newcomers and supplied another comparison. Archived X displays preserve later cumulative counts.

Dates use the stated precision; chart positions are date anchors.
