Hello.

Is Uzbekistan the next hotspot of elite rouleurs?

UCI, please, do something about it. it hurts to look at this

>>149428155
was kinda missing some bonkers stuff from eurobike until I saw this abomination

ominous

the legendary SEMEN Simon was very close to NC title, but alas

Somehow missed the story of MVDP abusing teenage girls and getting arrested in australia. Surprised that's not a cyc meme.

>>149428271
it is. also, it was rather other way around

>>149427553 (OP)
Even Astanas token chink delivered and placed 2nd in both NCs catapulting him into the top 20 before Higuita (shame on him)

>>149428339
also Bettiol with an absolute KWAB season so far letting Vino down big time despite being one of the top earners probably. Hope they gave everyone a small base salary with huge bonuses for UCI points scored

>>149428225
kek is this a kids bike?

>>149428259
>it’s real
bruh some parents just want their kids bullied

"Given my current level... I was transparent with the team. In any case, they share my values, my data, and so we decided together to skip the Tour this year," Gaudu said in words to L'Équipe. "Going there just to finish is pointless".

"It's obviously a big disappointment. Especially since the Tour is passing through Bretagne this year and my loved ones were going to be able to come and see me"

>be gaudu
>tank and backstab the whole team to be the sole survivor
>skip the tour de france because you're not good enough

what did he mean by this

>>149428155
wowze such innovation such novelty

How is the TV production of the french TT NC mogging big WT races

>>149428271
One of the worst cases of not paying attention.

>>149431101

Armirail wins

Podium place for Seixas

Vauquelin chuted apparently

very good performance from Kevin, all things considered

top 10

>preemptively signing 16 y/o

De Lie bros... we are SO BACK

Estonian cheesy feet rouleurs anyone?

>>149432375
for the sixth time in a single year or something

>>149432375

fucking cheeky journo. for 0.1 seconds I thought he was after having a massive chute

Rim Chads rise up

I got a big scare today Berts. I was preparing my bike to go on holiday (I will go saturday morning) and suddenly my Di2 just completely died. Totally unresponsive to anything, total disaster. I managed to reset it by unplugging and replugging the battery, but then a bit later it happened again. I thought my Di2 was randomly crashing out so I was getting very worried. I dont want to have to take out the seat post and do the battery thing mid ride, and I was worrying that something was broken and this was only going to get worse. Turns out that the problem is the Di2 connecting to my phone. I can replicate it perfectly, after connecting to the phone it just dies and has to be reset. Really stupid bug desu, but I am very glad I found out about it. Maybe this can help some Berts who run into this in the future.

>>149433214
sram chads can't stop winning

>his derailleur connects to his phone
Lol, lmao even

>>149433005
I thought spesh always had hooked rims.
>>149433214
Good for me that I only experience snapped shifter cables (happened twice already, thanks shimano). I just download a new shifter cable from the internet.

>>149434049
These new shifters are terrible, my cables break all the time

>>149434049
Indeed roval has never made a hookless rim

All the NC results have been completely predictable so far but I suppose that's just TT's in a nutshell. Hopefull the RR's are going to be a blast.

I do this all the time its so kino. Shocking how much faster you can go just by getting in this position.

>>149437947
I didnt much because british roads are very uneven and I felt unsafe. But I also didn't ride 35hr a week on smooth european roads. I don't think it even caused any crashes. Anything for an insecure pack of swiss turds to flex their power anyhow.

>>149436073
literally not even trying

>>149436073
thanks, just got a new sl8 for under 1k. thankfully i had some prepaid gift cards laying around

I was hoping the new Hincapie team would at least have an interesting kit but it looks kind of unimaginative. Once again I hope for performance's sake they offer some sort of alternate white kit. I cannot imagine riding around all summer in a black kit. Minimalisim in cycling kits often just comes off as quite low budget. Anyone could have made this Hincapie team kit. Honestly if the sponsors allow I think good cycling kit kind of needs to be a bit strange or inventive, different enough from regular clothes, patterns, and color distribution; because it is not regular clothes in fit or form and any attempt to render it familiar is likely to come off as insincere or lazy. As a sort of contrapositional example, some of the recent Lotto kits have been quite good despite being simple color blocking. However, they are so positively received because of their callback to vintage cycling kits, respectful of history without being so derivative; and the color patterning is certainly not something found in regular clothes but is clearly a piece of cycling equipment.

Basically it is so tiresome to see a NEW team, an AMERICAN team, doing things a little DIFFERENT, and have their kit just be black with some silly gold design.

>>149440394
Tiresome but wholly expected. And the kit is reminiscent of but inferior to the crit team Denver Disruptors

>https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/totalenergies-logo-to-appear-on-ineos-grenadiers-jersey-for-tour-france-in-workaround-of-uci-title-sponsor-rules/
>The TotalEnergies logo will appear on the Ineos Grenadiers team jersey for the 2025 Tour de France as part of a sponsorship deal that will boost the British team's budget for 2025 and beyond after a solution was found to workaround the UCI sponsorship rules.
>Ineos Grenadiers hired a sports marketing agency to hunt for a major sponsor that could contribute around £20 million in funding to ensure the team has a budget that can compete with UAE Team Emirates, Lild-Trek, and other super teams.

Inshallah, sounds like Remco money.

>>149440394
Is it black? It looks like a wine in the photos I've seen, like a deep burgundy

>>149440394
just a smidgen of colour and pastiche please. that's all a pro jersey needs for me to like it.

>>149440427
totally agree, this is a UScrit-core jersey. not a good thing.

Is this beauty worth $850?
>Up for sale is my 1988 Colnago Supermissio Columbus SL frame refurbished in a wine color with Colnago TIME carbon fork; chrome back stays; 54CM size-21” frame best for a person with 31-32 inch inseam and height between 5’9” to 6’0”. It has a carbon Campy seat post with like new Selle Italia white saddle to match the white cork handlebars. A beautiful vintage Italian bike. It has 8 speed Dura Ace STI shifters, brake calipers, chain ring, bottom bracket and spin true on Shimano 600 hubs on Aurora Alloy matching rims on very excellent 700x23C Vittoria open Corsa EVO clincher tires. Cassette is like new. It has the TIME Mul-tire Reflex sport clipless pedals but would look nice with Silver/Black Campy, Mitche, or Kyokuto Pro Vic II if one wanted to run without clipless pedals. Front and back working lights just installed. Two water bottle bosses on the frame. It Breaks my heart to let this bike go but ALAS I needed a 58CM and thought I could make do with this but will have to let this nice bike go. I will entertain trades for a 58 or 59Cm Colnago Dream Lux or a fine Italian bike with Campy Record or Chorus, Ultegra, or Dura Ace components with nice hubs and rims. Price is $850.00. Ride around in style!

doesn't his new team get in trouble sooner or later with the UCI if they literally have Lance as sponsor?

>>149442965
>"As of now, our understanding is that this venture is outside the UCI jurisdiction and that of any WADA Code signatory. So, the lifetime ban on Lance Armstrong under the WADA Code is not implicated," a USADA spokesperson told Cycling Weekly on Wednesday evening, before highlighting that the situation could change if the team is granted a UCI licence once the registration process is complete.

>Hincapie later told The Escape Collective that he and his team of associates had been "fully transparent" during the UCI registration process with the new project. "I am part-owner of the podcast along with Lance," he said. "I saw it as an opportunity to promote the team through those channels and gain more support through that outlet, as we have a big viewership during the Tour. No other affiliation beyond that. Looking forward to a great show this year talking about the Tour."

>"The UCI registration process is still underway, and all sponsorship arrangements are part of that review," he added. "We've been fully transparent about the structure and are working with our legal team to ensure everything meets their requirements. We're very excited about what we're building and the momentum we have so far to help support cycling here in the USA and abroad."

>>149443032
Will the Saudis have to bow to the UCI when they create their cycling calendar? Maybe they can bring back Lance

>>149440394
Bring back Jelly Bean and other meme kits. Even US postal had a cool kit. 7/11 too. EF have cool kits.

>>149440536
Remco to UAE on the account he's now a heathen. Match made in heaven. Remco leading Poocunt out on the tour. Cursed but realistic.

>>149443364

You'd think Vingegaard is french the way Gouvenou keeps picking Vingegaard climbs

>>149444239
it looks like bidon mold

Let's be honest, the most likely scenario isn't that Sola is some kind of god bringing sports science/medicine to a new level, but rather he brought UAE/Pogacar's training to Visma's level. He probably couldn't believe his eyes and luck when he found out what they'd been doing with Pogacar up to that point. Wasn't he even at Visma right around the time of fish's emergence?

Obviously this scenario will be too painful for some people to accept, so they have to paint Sola as the most intelligent person to ever exist.

>>149445266
its very easy for me to believe san millan is a complete fraud actually

>>149445266
Considering they were using carbohydrate drink powder for taste in the bidons instead of whole servings for performance in 2019/2020, I think it's safe to say until very recently they were faaar behind the curve. Now they're probably giving poocunt the same cancer and heart treatment as jumbo from. And god knows what else. Poocunts rise in performance is staggering.

If Pogi achives 8 W/kg on Peyragudes Javier Sola should get the nobel prize in medicine

For me, the most important thing mou has ever said, is that not only was Pogacar's training sub-optimal, lowering his ceiling, but that he was overtrained at altitude, coming down fatigued, which then had a compounding effect throughout the tour. If that was actually verified under Sola and it actually happened multiple times, it's completely unacceptable and I can't understand how the bald fraud hasn't been fired from the team. In general I can't believe riders are still willingly being trained by him, after seeing Pogacar's transformation.

After being single for a few months I have begun to strongly experience not loneliness but an intense desire for physical touch at all times. This has been particularly keen in viewing riders being embraced by their loved ones at the finish line. Burning through my core are the images of a manicured hand caressing an ear, a jaw, the nape of the neck. Electricity sparks across my skin as I imagine the soft welcoming touch of fingers surrounding the ear, palm cushioning the chin, the hand becoming taut as it traces the base of the skull, leading to firm but passionate pressure through the neck, fingers moving through the base of the hair, the zenith of the vertebrae, the resilient muscles of the neck gladly submitting to that strength beginning with the hand and ending with the furious press of lips.

make a horrible design so that pig will want to be in yellow from stage 2. It's genius

>"I don't think I suffered any consequences. I do have a very sore arm, neck and shoulder, but I think everything is still intact," she told NOS. "I can still move it, but I never trust myself. My pain threshold is quite good, so I am always a bit careful. I have often said that everything was fine and then afterwards I had broken things."
>Asked by NOS whether she regretted starting the race, she replied honestly: "At this moment I think 'damn, I should have stayed home'."
>With many riders and teams trying to avoid a sprint, the women's road race was an attacking affair, including from Vollering, and ultimately the tension in the peloton led to the late crash.
>"It's never chill," she told Wielerflits of the race. "They went down in front of me, and there was no escape at 50 kilometers per hour. I think it was not that bad, I managed to save myself and lay myself down neatly on the floor."
>Vollering admitted to Wielerflits that when she crashed, she did briefly worry about the Tour, but quickly realised she had not done any serious damage.
>"But once I was on the ground, I thought 'I think I'm okay'. Then it's more like a sigh and you think 'okay, luckily everything is fine'," she said. "I was lying at the bottom and tried to protect my head a bit. I hoped that nothing sharp would come at me."
>As long as post-race examinations don't reveal any further injuries, Vollering is set to head to altitude training camp shortly, as she builds up towards trying to win a second Tour de France title.
>"Fortunately, the first week at altitude is always mainly about adapting and taking it easy. It will be fine and it will not get in the way of the program too much," she said to NOS. "The body has to recover and that costs extra energy, but that is sometimes part of it."

Maybe you were just more rested. I always felt huge gains from MTB but I'd ride hard and it's sprinting or coasting. MTB is far more fun. I envy those who live next to trails.

In the last 10 mountain stages they disputed, Pogacar dropped Vingegaard in 8 of them. In the other two Pogacar just followed Vingegaard when he attacked and didn't counter attack even though he clearly could.

>Visma's level
Wasn't there a bert that said he went to one of their things where they basically said that literal urban myth of "you can't absorb more than 40g of protein in a meal". Yes, protein timing exists and 200g of protein in 4x50 doses is better than 1x200 or 2x100. But a suboptimal timing will still blow a suboptimal intake out of the water by a mile, in no world a 3 or 4x 30g is better than a daily 200g. And I'm talking normal protein, don't come up all smarty with some weird 5-10g/h regiment of casein that would not trigger protein. So if that's "vismas level" a typical gymbro knows better

Lance Armstrong winning 7 TdF's after having cancer is and will continue to be the most miraculous, inspiring story in sport. For him to be used as a fall guy for the entire sport is utterly disgusting.

Yes this is what I'm getting at. Media is saying the same sort of thing trying to convince everyone poocunt is clean. It is a repeat, except this situation is even more extraordinary. People gasped at Armstrong but how could a twinky slave do the same? With the most suspicious team on the 21st century to boot.

Danebros, the Norge are bullying us again

>>149492404
You know, Wout IS always sick before the Tour and it's always his best performance of the season

>>149491321
of course

Wait this capser Stornes is also from Bergen. WADA really needs to storm their training center

>>149492404
He's not wrong, you know

Is the former Tour de France favourite K. BLUMMENFELT washed?

>>149492778
He'll win

Tegsh-bayar BATSAIKHAN wins in Mongolia!

has there eber been a cuter cyclist?

It's also the nice iron man today. I hope these dude have been doing heattraining because it's fucking HOT

>>149492931
>it's fucking HOT
Its also not even the hottest time of day yet. Age groupers might die. Unironically.

there are way more women doing cycling nowadays, just a few years ago I'd be lucky to see one per month, now I see lots every time I go out
maybe the investment in women's cycling was a good thing

>>149492979
Absolutely 0 in south of france, it's still a boomer's hobby. Maybe in Nice you have tourists but that's it

>>149492996
not here around the capital, that's for sure

>>149492979
I'm going to the largest (still small compared to urban areas) weekly club ride near me soon and hoping to meet some dimes. Among my friends and coworkers late 20s-30s I know several men who bike, but all gravel-spd samba-flannel chill, and zero women.

Det er forbi.

BLUMMENFELT pas normal

>>149493025
>bert thinks he has a chance
HAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

>>149493018
Maybe it's a class thing

>>149492979
Here it become a social status symbol so of course younger women jumped in on it. Lot of them on 1k steel bikes wearing Pas Normal clothing

Millie Couzens wins for all the coomer berts out there. I remember her brother broke his fucking spine and didn't race for a year. Then came back way better than he was before.

la Philippe is done

Many such cases.

>>149492404
>*screech*

saw a guy today who looked a lot like Remco, but was like 2 meters tall. it was extremely unsettling

Reminder from last year

>>149493161
Very bizarre prioritizing if you ask me

>>149493206
I mean it's quite clear what's the point

>>149493187
>2m tall Remco

>>149493206
if you think in the most misogynistic way possible it actually makes perfect sense

Patrician combo is obviously bib from assos and jersey from van rysel

>>149492979
mostly old woman I see out on the roads. but women racing numbers are certainly way up.
also men's numbers are way too
cycling is booming

>danish NC only on TV2
I fucking hate TV2 so much it’s unreal

>>149493272
its disgusting

>>149469850
He could be 4pts you're not picking him. Jonas + pogi + 2 sprinters are basically mandatory

the new Frankfurt race course record is now an hour faster as the one from 15 years ago

>>149493442
please understand, triathlon isn't a UCI sports, so they can buy aero.

Ghekiere wins

>>149469850
Him and Onley are velotraps

no shit protein is involved in muscle building but outside of bodybuilding tards the hourly limit on protein absorption is not going to be the limiting factor. cyclists strength work is far below the protein cap or the muscle synthesis cap.

so the protein cap isn't going to figure into visma's training edge one way or another. it's more carbs, bicarbs and heat training stuff

>>149446001
1:31 down in 14th place. fraud?
