Taylor Phinney

>>150120135
Sagan maybe. He was always easy going, until he got hit by motos. And sometimes, he quite literally did not shave his legs. I miss him to be honest.

>>150120241
If he applied himself like an autist he could have been great. It was an era of elite TT talent though. But riding off 'vibe' will get you an early retirement and a solitary giro stage. Dude achieved fuck all despite his talent. And he is probably absolutely fine with that so it doesn't matter.

Will self-driving cars improve the cagie problem or make it worse?

>>150120051
That is really long first day, how much do you plan to do on a daily basis?

>>150120514
If the technology exists and it can be rolled out in enormous numbers to replace conventional cars then it absolutely should. States will love the techno authoritarian capability to shut down your car too. Cars are a plague imo.

>>150120372

Cagies need to be countered with terror. The average person should not be able to drive a 2 ton death machine.

I am extremely nervous when my dad goes for a ride, like today he was longer than usual so I panicked and called him. I need to get him the cameras and varia asap. I used to cringe but people wearing bright colours are correct. Bight orange or pink like EF jersey. Getting bad out there. Genuinely could happen to any of us. Wonder if it has and we don't know. Stay safe out there berts and get cameras. No excuses. Worst case at least your family can get some closure.

>>150120730
>>150120762
Everyone I love who rides has gotten a Varia from me as a gift at some point. And Bertina can track me when I ride thru the Wahoo computer.

Sometimes if I am being particularly lazy with a snack stop, I will get a text from her to make sure everything okay.

>>150120837
cute

>>150118431
I hate these 'cars' (leisure trucks) so much it's unreal

This is the average cagie. This is who you share the roads with. This is who you entrust your life with.

>>150120903
where did you get this gopro footage of my driving home from work

>>150120730
I feel the same way with my dad, who has admitted that he has collapsed more than once on the roadside while riding. For his own sake, it's probably good that he doesn't ride so much these days.

What a bizarre day of WT racing we've had. We need a strong beer to soothe frazzled nerves in another spectacular edition of /WORLD TOUR WINE/ !!

Today's stage in Poland began and finished in Wałbrzych, but our beer is from same brewery as first stage in Miroslaw. Interestingly enough this is brewed with Ukranian hops. This is sort of a reverse Chernobyl situation -- in Chernobyl, Polish uranium was used to build the Ukranian reactor, while in this beer, Ukranian hops were used to brew this Polish beer.

Komes Imperial Stout ($7)

Parks dark brown with caramel highlights. No head to speak of. The nose is very raisinated, with toffee and roasted malt. The palate is just toffee and booze. It is very hot at 12%. There is some hop bitterness, a little bit of sour tang, but it is so dense, sweet, and boozy.

Not nearly as well put together as the Baltic porter. This will be a chore to drink, not my style and very heavy. Sad!

My king...

>>150120837
Sounds super gay but cyc should put together an ultimate cycling safety guide. Some must haves like cameras, radar, lights. Use our collective experience to provide examples of the products, like a varia or a gopro for example. Anyone with question remotely related to cycling safety can have a pastebin link to read through. I wonder if /n/ have done such a thing. I would imagine those autists have something to say about it, they're quite clued in. Just incredibly autistic.

>>150110539
Happy Bald Day!

>>150121169
>bike defensively
>accept that your life is in the hands of the most stupid, retarded and subhuman "people" on the planet (ie your average cagie)
thats about it

>>150121169
Be vigilant and think ahead when you see weird behaviour
Ride defensively
Don't get angry or frustrated at other road users because a new jerk is born every minute
Don't take unnecessary risks or ignore the road rules
Control what you can and hope fate spares you

non-dane berts have no idea how fucking COMFY this stage is gonna be

Wrong drugland they were dutchies

>>150122091
I am a certified cagie but you have to admit it is insane how we've basically designed cities and towns around cars instead of people. And there is absolutely zero reason why something like a modern F150 should be purchasable aside from specific work applications.

What was your favorite moment of Mads's 2025 campaign?

For me, it was getting into the break on the last stage of Paris-Nice, dragging his fat ass over two Cat 1 climbs to take 10 sprint points on Col d'Eze to win the green jersey by 5 points

THE WARPED WALL

>>150123832
just ride more, but ride easier. There's literally no way around volume.

>>150123832
maybe because you are not in shape and need to get in shape and get more muscles in your legs?

>>150123846
I can do 4.7w/kg for 20 min
5.16w/kg for 5 min
riding at my Z2 absolutely destroys me compared to 5x5 or 2x20

>>150123886
>riding at my Z2 absolutely destroys me
Then you need to ride a lot more volume and it's probably not your z2

>>150123917
I want to do volume but it destroys me

>>150123917
bro can you give my legs a massage

>>150123969
you just gotta keep at it
and honestly riding at Z2 for a long time i find is mostly a mental thing

i hope you have a terrible day and that you stub your little toe

>>150124055
do your legs hurt after 3 hours?

>>150124150
yes and no funny enough
the muscles in my thigs and calf muscles never hurt when im on the bike riding they only hurt when i stop
what hurts/sore when riding for a long time is everything else from my back, arms, hands, neck and glutes but most of all my feet

now that i think about it i have never ever had cramps in my legs or felt actual pain more using them just a feeling of emptyness in them....do i have the pogi superpower?

>>150124193
yea my neck gets fucked
sometimes the sole of my feet starts aching
I never had that problem with cheap nylon sole shoes
its only the expensive carbon soles that make my feet hurt

>>150120051
That's one slow ahh mfin cracka, m'sayin?

>>150123969
Just ride easier, like 120W if you need that. My ftp is around 380w and if I ride long, I mostly ride at 190-200W or way easier than typical "zone 2". Feels much better and you can go longer.

>>150124317
Maybe your position is not sustainable for a long time. People buy endurance bikes for a reason, and it's not for the 2hrs ride

Another day, another BiG feast. Today was 2 chik fil a chicken sandwiches, fries, and soda and milk. I counteract this by only eating only 1 goyslop a day. I beat the system

>rusbert is late for rusbert hours
I hope he's ok

>>150123792
that one is pretty decent imo
I can't really go terribly wrong with soalheiro house
they are the ones that make the Alvarinho-Pinot Noir mix that I talked about on Monday. that also have a surprisingly good Espumante de Alvarinho (sparkling wine), for it's price.
In any case, what you're drinking is what we call green wine, specifically Alvarinho, which is really outstanding to drink while eating sea food. give it a try.

Details about the Komenda Criterium, to be held this saturday, featuring an apperence of a four time Tour winner (not Froome):
https://www.rtvslo.si/sport/kolesarstvo/kriterij-v-komendi-priloznost-za-slavje-s-stirikratnim-prvakom-toura/754039

>>150126702
Loyal soldiers Wellens and Sivakov will be there

rankings are a joke. Simon had a way better career.

>>150126498
That's a good fren

Further evidence for the obvious:
>Michael Storer claims Pogacar held back in last week of Tour for PR reasons
>On stage nineteen, Arensman did it again. Only this time, it wasn't by slipping into the early breakaway; Arensman beat Pogacar and his teammates from the group of favorites. "Only Thymen could beat Tadej that day," Storer said. "But it's strange, because I have inside information that there was definitely a day when Tadej didn't want to win the stage."
>Storer isn't referring to stage nineteen, but to stage fourteen to Superbagnères. Arensman soloed to victory that day by dropping his fellow escapees just over 30 kilometers from the finish. Pogacar had put his team in the lead that day and seemed to still be in contention for the stage win, but changed his mind on the final climb.
>"I find it strange that you let your team go flat out all day and then decide on the final climb not to win," Storer pointed out. "The other time (the stage to La Plagne, ed.) he might not have had the legs, but on that one stage (the stage to Superbagnères, ed.) he told his teammates that he didn't want to go for it after all."
>"If you don't want to go for it, let the breakaway go (Storer referring to the small lead the breakaway gained, ed.). Don't burn your team out," Storer opined. The attacker then explained that he also knows the reason behind the striking decision. "Apparently, there were boos from the French fans. The team then decided it was better for Tadej not to win, to keep the French on their side. They also took that into account in the final week: they didn't want to win everything."
https://www.wielerflits.nl/nieuws/tadej-pogacar-wilde-tourrit-naar-superbagneres-niet-winnen-door-boegeroep-franse-fans/
Anyone who watched the last week of this year's Tour could feel something was strange in the way Pogacar rode.

>>150128118
Which makes his "I'm paid to win" comments very stupid and short sighted. It isn't about sponsors being happy, they are no fools and they can see he could win if he pleases. Arensman won that stage because UAE didn't want Kuss to win, and ensured if he did go solo on the final climb they could deny that. Not the first time that's happened.

It is not a secret that you don't go and sweep up stages as the yellow jersey. Take your 3-4 and then settle back and let others race. They seem generally retarded as does poogacar. Very petty and emotional. If they didn't have the money and the biggest talent in the past 20 years they'd be absolutely nothing.

>>150128118
if we've reached the point where your only chance of winning a stage is a pity win for good PR for pogacar then cycling is fucking done

>>150128404
Perhaps the other riders should consider pedaling harder

I remember poogacar's petty optics when he lost the stage against vingegaard last year. Made sure to be sipping his bottle on the podium and interviews constantly lmao claiming he didn't fuel properly. Such an insufferable faggot, if you lose then you lose, taking credibility from your opponent is actually grim. He's such a cunt.

Bert's why are cycling journos and bloggers gaslighting about femme cycling so hard? I'm seeing all kind of claims of the femme tour being more exciting and having just as many spectators and viewers as the male tour. And comments at normie places are full of people that clearly have never seen cycling before behaving like they are veteran experts. I don't want the same retarded gender discourse as they have in basketball.

This guy really won his first 5 races at 28 after barely getting more than 10 top 10 results in all his other pro seasons combined.

>>150130175
We could end up with an extremely fraudulent jersey winner if Mads DNFs for some reason.

Perhaps a chance for CANAL.

>>150130187
why did it take him so long to get the Decathlon boost is the question

>>150130187
well he is at a natural peak athleticism age

>>150130238
The french are like 15 years behind everyone else when it comes to training. Took them this long to catch up.

>Jonas wins GC
>Jonas wins KOM
>Mads wins green
>Skjelmose wins white

>>150130318
It takes a few years to un-learn shitty training habits. And especially french ciclismo has been so behind for so long that it naturally takes a while. And some adapt to the new regime faster than others.

Anyone has a VW transporter? More precise the 2008 model by chance. Or any recreation van/camper? I think I'll buy one I'm visiting a few in coming weeks. Alternatives look lackluster imo, plus the VW's are built for 300k miles. The 1.9 liter model looks more appealing as it should be somewhat more economical than the 2.5l and doesn't have as many faults to the engine. In general the VW's seem very well built and parts are always available but a little more expensive. But I will never be prepared for how painfully slow it'll be. Going to be very expensive, my biggest purchase. Already sad about my hatchback :(.

A burger grill literally just stepped out on the road in front of me because she wanted a high-five. What the fuck is wrong with burger-kind?

How likely is it that bora implodes because Remco, Roglic, and Lipo can’t agree on who is the leader of the pack?
Especially Lipo must feel fucked over, he just got hailed as the future star after upping Roglic and finishing third with little help, had his hopes up for more and had generated crazy hype in Germany … and then the team that just praised him gets Remco, who definitely won’t be going there to support someone else. Roglic surely also believes he’s still the best they have

I've spent about 8 years cycling around western Europe and I've always enjoyed it, but I'd love to do a bike packing trip through Japan. Because the nature and culture and life and geography just seems so different there from Europe, and it seems like a fairly chill country to cycle in (I'm not a japanophile or anything) but it's something I'd live to do. I'm just afraid to do such an undertaking by myself, I wish I had a cool friend I could piggyback on for such a trip

LEITÃO will win.

>IV for dehydration everyday during the tour
wtf I thought they were hardmen back in the day

>>150133170
Just jump. Everything is scary until you do it. my brother solo backpacked 1500km through scandinavian woods. I got lvl 90 farming on osrs today (took longer than his trip so more impressive). If we can, you can take a plane and ride your bike.

>>150133170
Do you differentiate "bikepacking" and "bike touring?" Because there really isn't a lot of wilderness you can ride through in japan like there is in europe and the states. There are however MANY National Roads like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcz55QlFA58& that you can stitch together to really explore Japan

>>150133593
>Yes, the syringe marks are totally because of the IV for dehydration and not because of dope injections and blood transfusions.
It was just a cover story.

day 3 is coming to an end. todays etappe was fakin HOT. also some sweet rampas inhumanas including a small chute on a 16% uphill und big gravel. all in all the most beautiful ride so far but with a shocking realization - Zell Am See is fucking LOST to ar*bs. I never saw so many hijabs at one place and I was in Paris, London, Wien Favoriten. disgusting stuff

Very impressive efforts, how many consecutive days do you plan to do? I find if I do too many big days in a row my heart refuses to go over like 145bpm and I have to rest

>>150142190
tomorrow is the last day with 130km and 1000vm. that was my first time doing multiple big rides in a row and I have to say I like it a lot. might try the Three Peaks Ultra Bikerace next year

>>150142318
man you're gonna get some fitness boost from these rides

>>150142008
>Wien Favoriten

>>150142424
lets see what kind of benefit I get after these rides. It's mostly Z1, so no real intensity, just mentally and from comfort its hard I would say. Ass, foot soles, hands, neck, shit starts hurting after 9+h everyday

Ah yes, the Portugau sheet last stage was counted twice, stage 1 results twice on top of each other.
Budget cuts at /cyc/ office, what can you do.

>>150142032
what do you think about going 1-by? it's not the top speed that I would miss, I just prefer having narrow gaps to stay within my preferred cadence, but I guess I would have to try out one-by with a 40 ring at the front and how it would feel.

>>150142578
ofc it means something to me but he did not win his 100th duh

>>150142546
don't do it - I hate it for this exact reason, the gaps are too big. I'm playing with the thougt of getting the new sram red, put it on me tarmac and put the force 2-by from the tarmac to the colnago and ditch it, but that requires advanced paypiggery.

damn what a ride

great trip, big kms, big eggs, big cyclisme

Djien dobry! What a frantic week of racing we've had! Cyclisme is a certified world-wide pandemic in August 2025, with racing in the Arctic circle, South America, Eastern Europe, Iberian Peninsula, France, and the Himalaya all in one day!!! What a great day to enjoy another /WORLD TOUR WINE/ (bier) !!

Today's stage in the Tour de Pologne departs from Katowice (which I only know from Counterstrike tournaments) and heads south, skirting the city of Tychy where today's beer is made. Despite regal origins dating back to the early 17th century, this is now owned by the Dutch and is a mass-produced lager. It is one of the most popular Polish beers with a 20% market share. By comparison, Anheuser-Busch is at 34% in the United States (I do admit, when I drink beer at a restaurant, I do ask for a Stella Artois).

Tyskie ($3)

Pours a transparent golden color with white mousse, quickly fading. The nose is lightly hoppy, lightly sweet. The palate opens with sweet bread and finishes with light bitter hops.

Clean, fine. Not interesting.

Photo avec le chien Bruxellois. He always has an interest whenever I open a beer.

Will McNulty make a move in the Tour de Pologne???

I wonder whether Casmir Pulaski is widely known outside Chicago?

Tour de Pologne related as he is a Polish-American general who led troops in the American Revolution and one of only EIGHT foreigners to be given honorary US citizenship

very summery tour I feel

>>150144909
Dzień dobry! I approciate your contriubtion to this thread but I have to correct you a bit. The owner of Tyskie is Japanese Asahi. But there is another city close to this stage where the Żywiec beer is made and this time the owner is Dutch.

>>150147329
I got this information from the very disjointed and difficult to follow English Wikipedia page on Tyskie. The page states the beer is brewed in the Netherlands but my can clearly stated that it was brewed in Poland so I omitted that false info.

Anyway, dziękuję. I have always been fond of the Poles having grown up in Chicago >>150147172

>ah yes the usual Trás os Montes with 40°C, very good

>>150151568
I remember someone doing the same to Contador after the whole clenbuterol thing.
think it was a russian from katusha but I'm not sure

why would anyone willingly ride in poland at this point?

just bee yourself

>>150153549
Pretty sure they're paid Bert

I feel like everyone at soudal is happy that memco left and everyone at red bull is seething hard

Damn the danes are not happy

>>150154347
nothing of what he says is wrong

>>150151353
Why are they always like this?

>>150154347
>dreigt Vingegaard een ‘secundair figuur’ te worden
>dreigt

>>150154347
>Koers meer. Dan win je meer koersen

>>150153771
they get paid a fixed salary by their team, not paid by the race.

>>150154404
True, but you'd expect the best dane cyclist of all time to get a nice treatment from local media

>>150154501
Yes, and the teams need to send some people

>>150154503
Jonas is one of the best paid cyclist in the world and what does he have to show for it this year?
a Algave win and a 2nd place in the TDF, its simply not good enough the man is paid to win races not be the GC version of 2out
his uber focusing on the TDF does also not help, if he did a full spring campaign with classic and won lets say Paris-Nice, Catalunya and Fleche then the critiscim would be ALOT less than it is right now
the simply fact that he NEVER does NC, EU or WC is a stain on his "honour" for alot of danes and they dont like and even hate him for it

and that was it - 725km, 7500vm later I arrived in Innsbruck. it was way easier than expected tbqh, only the 32C+ heat was a struggle at times on the rampas with the heavy bike. will definitely do another trip again, maybe this time with the tarmac, a lighter pack and twice the distance

News.

>>150154509
which is why i said "willingly".

>danes are turning on vingegaard

i didn't think i would live to see the day.

>the simply fact that he NEVER does NC, EU or WC is a stain on his "honour" for alot of danes and they dont like and even hate him for it
Fair enough

Tiberi subatomique while looking back attacks would fit well in pre covid ciclismo

>>150154503
not really negative clicks is better for suspense besides the journalist still pretends there’s a debate to be had lol it’s not that critical

>>150154583
Bert I want to do this tomorrow, what do you think? Have you ever done these train-ride out of vienna it seems like a good idea to change a bit from the same road to get out of the city

>>150154830
facebook boomer gang just about hates everyone and everything kek

>>150154572
He's finishing 2nd in Kigali

>>150154583
And nice trip of course, I wonder how it feels to ride for such a low power for such a long time. Ngl you kinda make me want to try something similar (I'll sleep in a hotel though, I'm a pussy)

does anyone even like jonas?

>>150154958
He's cute, pretty eyes

>>150154958
No, even his daughter hates him

>>150154958
There’s a fair amount of Jonas gangers power of friendship humble winner etc

rampas time in burgos

eulalio is away, peaking during august, you can take the runner from the Volta but not the Volta from the runner
