>>150119758

very weird photos from today stage. maybe the whole thing is simulation

Is Bisiaux a good runner?

>>150158957
He's a good CXer, his running shouldn't be too bad

>>150158888
probably overdid it with the AI denoising

im going to put aero bars on my 160mm fork hardtail because fuck valleys and fuck wind

I saw somebody doing a full supertuck in Central Park, on a crowded Saturday morning, on a -4% grade.

>>150159642
beast mode

>>150159613
My disciples have reached Amerikkka?

Im so fucking fat bros, gained 25 pounds this year

>>150160567
pound sterling?

What do you guys think of high end steel frames and how they compare to carbon or aluminum? I've been thinking of buying a ritchy road logic frame(rim brake)

>>150160713
Have you also got a perfectly pedicured moustache and beard?

>>150160831
No, I have a man bun tho

>>150160653
no, pounds burger
It's 11.36 czeck kilos

>>150160901
it's okay if you're watts have increased accordingly

>>150160713
buy a proper bike

>>150160713
alu for price, titanium if it needs to be nice

seriously thinking of buying the most aero rim brakes bike I can and a set of wide wheels
I'm not convinced about disk brakes outside of rainy days
what are my options? what frames can fit 28 to 30mm tires? do o have to go second hand for a canyon aero road? should I just say fuck it and go disk?
it all seems overly expensive and not user friendly

>>150161061
We in a pretty shit situation. Old nice frames with rimbreaks can't take broad tires and new frames are all diskbreaks. And the few modern framesets with rimbreaks are budget crap.

I'm going back to tubes

How are champion cyclists selected by their teams? How does the team know "this guy is going to win for us"?

Omloop (het Nieuwsblad)

>>150161225
usually they pick the best guy

>>150161186
>>150161202
well the major reason why I'm looking to change is because the current tubular tires market is shit, barely anyone makes decent ones at decent prices so I figured why not change and go full aero

>>150161225
Like all other sport. You see what they have done before. And measure their biomarkers.

>>150161270
the fever is rising (slowly)

>>150159613
monster cross bikes are great

Who won the Pogi criterium

>>150161270
Oppoop < Strade

i spent the day at a ski resort bike park
i felt like i was in africa

>>150164503
What's that like

>>150160992
if your gonna go single speed at least be man enough to ride brakeless fixie

>>150165815
Fixie is the worst. You should feel bad for suggesting that.

>>150161061
It literraly is over for us rimchad. If you want to buy new your choices are the ritchey, the standeart or custom steel like pic related.
If you want to buy used, try to get the last dogma rim, I think it's from 2022 so not too old and I'm pretty sure they take 28mm

seeing this is not UCI sanctioned anyway, could as well just go with drop bars

>>150155106
Ended up doing pic related. Pretty nice. The way from Vienna to pressbraun is a bit shitty but early in the morning there were no cars

>>150161061
Canyon Aeroad, Cannondale Supersix, Specialized SL6, Cervelo S3/S5 are great options on the used market, as are Focus Izalco Max, Trek Emonda SLR and Look Huez RS. I think most 2015-2020 frames can clear 28s/30s – for example my Look Huez RS 785 can clear 28s easily, it's the brakes that are often the limiter. EE brakes by Cane Creek can fit 30s no problem.

>>150168409
This is faster

>>150158864 (OP)
so del Toro was exposed hard

>>150168710
Ciccone is going to win the vuelta

>>150161061
Even my Giant Propel from 2014 can fit 28mm.
Never tried fitting 30mm.
Plus, it has aero mini v-brakes.

>>150168729
Most cursed post I've seen on cyc, ever

>"The fact is, I'm already counting down the years until retirement," said Pogacar. "I started winning early, and there could be worse results, too; I'm ready for anything. I'll probably ride a few more Tours, although you can never guarantee you'll ride them. The Tour is the biggest race, and I doubt the team will let me stay home for a few years."
It's over

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asX6qHJD7Hg

Might try and do some event on numberberg ring, this looks very kino. I did silverstone as a youth one which was unbelievable really. It was for charity and it was a TTT, our team won but the other teams were like half disabled or school teams lmao, we felt so awkward at the ceremony.

>>150169182
Pogi to Tietema in 2031 confirmed

>>150169182
Retiring for him means stop doing grand tours. He'll probably farm monuments for a while

>>150168710
exposed as being a tactical idiota but then again he is young and ride for UAEmerda so what can you expect
he will learn over the years

>>150169182
KEK, where are all the berts that said it was a nothingburger? Dude is WASHED. Too many nights not being able to spend time with Urska and her.... friends.

Visma won. Made it less fun, turned down Jonas' dope to ensure it was a no competition win. Now the french hate UAE and the 'goat' which is a travesty for the arrogant little prick who just wants to be loved by everyone. Fish is unironically the david vs goliath and the fans dearly want him to beat him one last time.

No one other than twitter fanboys and commentators like poogacar. Probably one of the most unlikable riders in the past 25 years. Doesn't have the charm of drive Armstrong has, doesn't have the robotic clinical hungry nature Froome had, doesn't have the seething manlet aura Remco has. He isn't a very complex character, he seems very 1 dimensional and boring off the bike. The fake joking and banter that tries to copy the likes of Sagan is just really cringe.

He has no interesting or redeeming characteristics other than winning in such a unbelievably dominant fashion, crushing his and the fans spirits. He is a scourge on the sport and the sooner he's gone the sooner we get kino back. And I suspect UAE will suffer immensely because it's a team of complete retards and without King Retard to win everything by attacking at 80km or taking 2 minutes on a mountain, team is nothing special. Better hope Del Burrito finds another 20IQ points as well as the DS otherwise team goes pop.

Very, very big fan (of omloop)

Nordaca cyclista supremacy

>>150169182
a lot of people warned about possible early burnout with young talents. maybe there was some truth to it

>>150169425
Careers will probably mirror sports like football where they peak at 25 and retire around 30. Very few hitters from previous generation are active anymore so we're definitely in that new era, and it'll soon be clear what that looks like longevity wise of course but it will be interesting. Juniors around me are doing ridiculous training and very, very long hour weeks. I probably did 10-12, they're doing 15-20, sometimes more! Insane for a young growing body. I wonder how many will be stunted because of it. At least with cycling it is less important to some degree than football because you can make a name in amateur ranks by winning national races and you get to prove yourself against professionals in the nation champs. Knight was slow to develop, he was always small but riders around him from same team like Vernon and a few others who didn't go pro were already moving onto semi pro teams and national programs. But there's still a considerable powergap from amateur to professional, only have to see Langelotti from Ineos to see how going from a smaller team to the WT completely changes you.

>>150169425
If UAE were smart they'll give him one free year where he can skip the tour and do classics + Vuelta

>>150169223
>tactical idiota
He's the only kid they have with a working brain, his problem is lack of wattage

Pogi MTB wk when?

>>150169539
Wonder what he'll do once he retires. If he goes gravel racing he'll probably dominate until his 50s

yesterday on my ride in the l'auvernge was the first time i've ever been heatcracked, i usually do pretty well with temperatures in the mid-30s range, but it was 39C officially and my gps was going into mid-40s and i was climbing up these cols that didn't have any shade and at a certain point i was so fucked i was barely putting out Z1 watts while near max heartrate

>>150169552
Who says he'll stick with bikes? The man could dominate any endurance sport if he wanted

>>150169636
Damn, that's some proper heatmaxxing

>>150169636
Im sitting here inside with AC with 25° outside. I dont know how you coldlets manage heat

>>150169636
bert why do you torture yourself so

>>150169636
Another LEGENDARY bonk in the Annals of /cyc/

This was the ENTIRE startlist of the WC 1948. THIS is who Coppi and Bartali were riding against. Some dudes from Luxembourg and a guy named Croci-Torti

>>150169766
>27 DNF

>>150169797
These are your GOATs Bertollo...

>>150169636
That's fucked up going to need to slurp litres electrolytes

Uno-X quickly signed Tjotta after yesterday top 10
>>150169805
Cipo is my goat

>>150169425
if Pog retires 2030 that would make his career span 12 years, about the same as Hinault and Merckx
he's already in his 7th good year, Froome and Indurain only had 8 good years in total

Huh so the stage in Norway is just a criterium. Nice change of pace I guess.

Question for the home mechanics, has anyone ever had to put loctite on the derailleur B screw? Over the past couple weeks I notice a grinding when I shift into the largest cog, and each time it seems that my B screw has almost completely backed itself out. I've been riding for a while and only have ever touched the B screw when installing a new derailleur or cassette. Yet now it seems to keep coming loose. So I am wondering if it needs a bit of loctite or is this the symptom of a more nefarious issue.

>>150169766
Its not about the competition across time its about the oral history and tradition of the sport, in cycling more than all other sports the thread of myth, legend, and truth is woven continuously through past and present.

>>150168739
This is what big disc brake took from us.

>>150169636
Its fucking August you either go easy or you get out at 05:30 if I see you do this again you are getting the clapper

>>150169913
Kek

>>150169182
he also said he might do the european championships road race. literally why? emilia and varesine have more prestige than the euros ever will.

>>150169900
Our boy Sheehan will win.

>>150170000
He has PTSD from Emilia bert

>>150169766
middelkamp, schotte en kübler waren geen pannekoeken!

>>150170000
>>150170029

Huub ARTZ

>>150170029
>>150170044

yeh, he also won last year.

>>150170000

He just wants another thing to tick off his list.

Also dawg earning his paycheck in Poland.

>>150170000
He already won Emilia and Varesine. The only time he raced EC was in 2021, and he came in 5th.

>>150170000
cool jersey for the collection

>>150169902
>has anyone ever had to put loctite on the derailleur B screw?
Nope.
If it is a problem, blue loctite is fine.

But... your derailleur /derailleur cage is not bent, right?
And the derailleur hanger is also straight, right?

>>150170094
if it's all about filling in the blanks, pogi's 2026 season should look something like this: sanremo, roubaix, basque country, tour de suisse, vuelta.

>>150170119
will he be wearing it though, assuming he will be world champion again?

>>150170166
Yes. You have to wear both of the jerseys. It's his way of doing heat training

>>150170000
he still lacks vuelta, some classics and the euros and wc tt, he's probably trying to win one of each one

>>150170208
you really think he cares about the time trial? i doubt it.

>>150170166
no, except maybe next year if he races between the few days between WC and EC, assuming he doesn't win WC next year
but he can put it on his wall or wear it for training rides or wear it while banging Urska

>>150170219
he said he'll participate in the wc tt, it's a climb tt anyway so memco and ganna won't do shit

KWAB

>>150170219
he probably cares enough to try if there's a chance and this year might be his best chance yet

>>150170321
forgot he was in this race

>>150170321
why does this keep happening?

Grande Lorenzo

>>150170321
>Küng?

>>150169182
anti-work hero

Is McNULLty any good on TT?
Does he have any chances?

>>150166717
>high-end steel frame
>internal cabling
YUCK!

>>150170374
>Is McNULLty any good on TT?

absolutely.

>>150170374
he's probably gonna win
still would like to see a little sombrero upset

>>150170374
>Is McNULLty any good on TT?
reasonably good

>>150170374
good enough to win a La Vuelta ITT

>>150170426
almost 1/3 of his victories are itt's. i think you can call him a specialist.

>>150170400
>>150170404
>>150170426
Good to hear.
Still, would like a Polak to win today and GC, but this is the second best thing.

>>150158864 (OP)
daily reminder that last year vinge lost a tt to wellens in poland

>>150170426
The fine, -15 UCI points, is due to him, along with the rest of the UAE, wearing a Pink and Yellow jersey celebrating Pogacar's double.

>>150170546
did this fine get them relegated to a PCT team?

>>150170546
Did he, now?

>dropping chain right before the start
lol

>>150170644
I apologize for being imprecise.

>>150168382
we live in portugal, riding under 40º weather
going through kino alvao as well, which looks like shit in the summer and is literally burning today

Double grande on top currently

>GOATnulTTy
He's going to do it!

Waiting for Frenchbert to update the tally

>>150165465
everyone looked like they were homeless
shocking number of fully grown adults under 5 feet tall
very weird

Majka's retiring or something? The heck are those TV fools talking about?!

>>150171329
i heard he's retiring at the end of the year, pcs says the same
>>150158864 (OP)
ballerini has the wrong jersey number

>>144357341

McNulty is now up 85 places since last we checked
Kuss is down 6 places

>>150171333
well, yes

Czesław looks very happy with how the race went down, the old chap.

>>150171376
Kuss of Death!

what now?

>>150171500
stage neutralized. everything is burning

>>150171518
Maybe if the peleton carried a few bottles more it could help...

>>150171518
smart thing to do would be to bypass alvao all together

woah

>>150171560
Holy smokes!

>>150171560
fucking hate the summer me, the wildfires being the most embarassing point

My legs were shit today.

Also why can't I phonepost?

>>150171560
wish we could just all come together and solve global warming

Don't remember how the previous years' trophy looked, but this one is kinda weird.

>>150171559
supposedly they will and resume from Mondim de Basto

>>150171560
can't have a volta without kino forest fire shots

>>150171616
looks like it's always been a gelato swirl trophy with some slight variations

>>150171723
ribbon cable trophy lol

>>150171685
Mad job this, I've seen loads of videos of them collecting water from ridiculous locations like garden swimming pools. Extremely skillful. The planes are insane too how dangerous the collection is. Can't be too easy having water load, like how truck tankers get slap I bet it creates enormous instability. The helicopter is probably extremely powerful anyway I guess.

>>150171723
I completely forgot Hayter managed to win this too

>>150171723
Sivakek got the best thots

>>150171723
Sour gummy stripes trophy.

Serra do Alvao cancelled, the race will restart soon

>>150171847
they're restarting on Campeã (female champion)
they used to mine iron there

now this is a pod racing

>>150161061
>>150160713

>>150171805
2nd worst pick you could have got besides Nietzard.
Behave yourself.

Dversnes wins

top 10

>>150172274
final GC

>>150172309
Some names I haven't heard in a long time.

race restarted

Dversnes from behind. That was surprisingly strong for him.

KINO break

Are there really 15 Burgers better than McNulty?

>>150172766
Armstrong, Lemond, Horner, Leipheimer, Kuss, Hamspten, Julich, Farrar, Hamilton, Landis, Van Garderen, Hincapie, Jorgenson after that i don't know

>>150172766
so it seems

256th World Tour stage race in a row without a French victory

Quintessentially Volta

>>150172892
so they kept armstrong there?

>>150171616
UAE does it again!
How do they do it?!!?!
:D

>>150172897
256 races (2^8)
107 different winners
25 different nationalities

So Pog got so bored during tdf that he is actually thinking about when he will retire. What a pampered weak mind. He wouldn't last in a normal 9-5 job.

I forgot about Volta at the North of Portugal. Funny, with all the fires they still do this at this schedule on those areas that usually burn on this time

And i miss the times they went to Alentejo with over 40 degrees

>>150172992
cycling is hard. not like other easy sports. racing is hard. travelling is hard. training is hard. I would retire early if I had 30 million in the bank

>>150170133
No not bent, and shifting otherwise is perfectly fine.

Lots of PCS races going on. For checking results not for watching. The only race I would have watched is San Seb but I doing other shit. However, I am primed for the Vuelta.

would you recommend a 3d printed saddle for a mountain bike?

apparently UAE doesn't train in Z2 at all
90% of their rides are 3-5 hour tempo in training

not any better than a normal saddle though

do i have ass cancer?
i ate 8 gels 3 days ago and my guts are still fucked
cant stop farting

>>150175855
Eh aparently is pretty normal to have gastrointestinal problems eating gels.
Big teams have special designed gels just to avoid these issues.

Dzień dobry and welcome to our last /WORLD TOUR WINE/ (bier) for the sensational Tour de Pologne !! We had action down to the wire this week, with another legendary performance from handsome man Brandon MCNULTY to take the stage and GC victory!

Today's beer is brewed just down the road from today's ITT in Wieliczka.

Okocim O.K. Beer ($3.59)

This is a Polish Pilsner, brewed by Okocim since 1945. Pours a light honey gold with fine white mousse which fades quickly. The nose is a bit flat - just the barest hint of grass and malt. The palate is clean, lightly sweet, pleasing grassy hops.

Just fine, well put together. The highlight of the beer is the can, which I really love. We had four (4) biers for the Tour de Pologne, none of which were really great, but none of which were bad (maybe that imperial stout was...)

Look out for another sensational edition of /WTW/ next weekend with the return of the much-lauded Hamburg CYCLASSICS race!

>>150176907
>Polish Pilsner
>since 1945
hmmm I wonder why they didn't start making earlier.

>>150177229
typo, 1845. It says so on the can (A.D. 1845, cut off at the bottom).

>>150176907
If you had beers for Tour du Dinamarca you should have a Svaneke beer on tuesday.

i just bought this for my 60 y/o dad to join me on coffee rides, did i fuck up?

>>150178083
let us know about the Shimano Cues group set, I have absolute no cues how it is compared to 105/GRX.

>>150178119
it has a 11-39 10 speed cassette, seems silly how large the gaps are but apparently other than that the shifting/disk brakes are really great for the value.

>>150177342

i was there in person as a young bert watching him on the podium in Frederiksberg, kinda crazy that it has been 17 years

Yup, knew it.
Pogacar is done with GTs.
Already counting the years until he fulfills his contract 2030.

After that only Classic races or complete retirement.

>>150180042
Nah he's going to go for atleast 1 more TdF to match Merckx , Indurain and Hainault.

>>150182482
Why would he go for a shared second place?

>>150182560
So... he's going for 8?

>>150182614
If he still has any hunger he should.

>>150182614
>>150182632
I would celebrate this but 8 TdFs is just horrific to imagine, while also carrying a busy schedule of classics and stage races....

Upgrading from 29'er mountain bike to something to punch out more kms on the road? Worth looking 2nd hand or are the basic trek/giant bikes ok for what they are. Aluminum frame is all I am after.

>>150182674
What's your budget?

If you want a road bike, I would go for drop bars and a reasonable groupset (Shimano 105 or SRAM Rival at least). A modern frame will give you ability to mount wider tires (28mm or above is a huge boost in comfort and speed compared to 21 or 23mm). Disc or rim doesn't matter that much. Aluminum is harsh, but cheap.

>>150182768
yer, sorry, 1500-2000. Thanks for tips

>>150182768
>Disc or rim doesn't matter that much

>>150182823
I forgot how bad the Australian conversion is

https://www.giant-bicycles.com/au/contend-ar-3

This is a decent bike, I don't think you'll be able to get 105 for <$2k in Australia. Sora or Tiagra is fine. Best upgrade for speed and comfort is tires.

>>150182887
Thanks, was had the giant website up. Seems the AR1 for $2700 will get you the 105 groupset. Maybe I might have luck with a runout model. Thanks for help

>>150182887
>Best upgrade [...] is tires
This. All but a negligible amount of suspension is from the tires. Good tires make a big difference in my experience.

>>150171329
I had no idea what you meant, but I have one near me. It's not a ski resort, but it has a ski lift that takes you to the top of a forested hill and you mountain bike down. Never went because the fees are absurd if you don't bring your own equipment especially bike, around 120 or more for a days lift ticket and bike rental. I'd still like to go try it

A few ITT said he looked like shit and looked depressed through '24 Giro, which he did. Dude is a weak mind in terms of in ability. Most could just cruise to easy wins. You're mid 20's, multimillionaire, about to smash various records. Yet you're 'bored'? Not as if he wins absolutely everything with ease anyway like Amstel or Roubaix.

Imagine being a whiney bitch about winning doing the best job you could imagine earning many millions. What an ungrateful faggot. I'd be racing until I was 40 if I were him.

>>150185521
Ekoi seems like hot shit right now, really popular, seemingly well priced and apparently good quality. Also look for crash replacement. Some brands will give you a new one for free if your destroy yours in a crash which is a nice touch. MIPS generally is the meta for helmets and most brands will use the MIPS. It genuinely works and makes crashing much safer, it allows slight rotation and movement on impact so it's not direct ground > helmet > head. It takes some of the impact. Van Rysel helmets look nice too to be honest and tehy're well priced. I think trek/specialized/poc is generally overpriced slop but I know trek do a crash replacement so you bring your mangled helmet, they will give you a new one for free. Damn that ekoi is sexy

Now that Pogacar is thinking about retirement, and Vingegaard clearly doesn't have it anymore, the former 2009 Giro d'Italia stage 15 winner* and current Belgian national team coach Serge Pauwels said that Seixas-Widar in the l'Avenir is like Pogacar-Vingegaard

I don't understand the views presented here at all.

I just pull my cock and balls straight up so they're not stuffed down by my perineum and they're gently cupped by the chamois.

>>150190802
the first one is the top down view, the second one is the side profile. it's not that hard to grasp.

do you lay your cock and balls on the saddle straight down (cleaving your sack), or are you a lefty or a righty

>>150190866
if the top line is a top-down view, what is the third one? genitals detached and placed under?

>>150190881
cock and balls to the right side of the saddle

>>150190866
My saddles have a cutout. I just checked and when I am sitting on the bike, my basll are sort of in the cutout area (normally held up against my body by chamois) and my dangle was slightly off to the right.

You should not be sitting on your balls, you should be resting on your sit bones.

basically if you want low traffic then take Estrada Atlântica and then n115 until Bucelas then Loures. There are a few good alternatives after Óbidos, just do not head to N1 ever ever.

>>150197573
He is the protagonist of cycling after all

>>150197424
On my rim brake bike, 140mm with a 70mm reach handlebar, as the Campag shifters are pretty short. On my disc brake bike with the Sram Red E1 shifters, 120mm (75mm handlebar reach). I have been thinking about switching to 130mm on it but it's a wash.
Anyway today's workout was supposed to be 3x10min at 400-410W but I could only do 3x8min. There's some mental hurdle for me when it comes to long intervals above threshold, it's very hard for me to continue pushing through when it's so uncomfortable. Give me long 20min+ FTP or sweetspot intervals instead any day of the week.

What percentage of the peloton do you think is illiterate??

After participating in my last race, the Giro Ciclistico Valle D'Aosta, and the associated death of Samuele Privitera, I decided to end my career as a professional cyclist.

After last year's Tour of Austria, where another rider died, I already had serious doubts about racing and was on the verge of quitting. Nevertheless, I continued and largely suppressed what had happened. Unfortunately, after the Tour of Austria, I never became the racer I once was again. I became increasingly concerned about my safety and felt increasingly uncomfortable in races, which in the medium term meant that I was never able to reproduce in races what I had worked so hard to achieve in training. Towards the end, races were unfortunately just an annoying side effect that you had to accept if you wanted to earn money from cycling. I had completely lost the fun of racing, and the more chaotic a race became, the more brutally I broke down mentally. Unfortunately, without the mind, the body only functions poorly. What happened in the Aosta Valley was ultimately just confirmation of my decision, and I can see how well I've been doing since I quit. I regret that I was unable to live up to some expectations as a professional cyclist and that my collaboration with Alpecin is now coming to an end. Nevertheless, I am certain that it was the right decision to stop.

Nonetheless, I am very grateful for the opportunity I was given by my team Alpecin Deceuninck and Zwift. I was able to learn from the best cyclists in the world and got to know many nice people on the team. In addition, I was able to significantly improve my physical condition thanks to my trainer Philipp Walsleben, even though I was never really able to show it in the races. I felt that this team is very aware of its responsibility towards young athletes and I never felt pressured in any way. I always enjoyed the training and the improvement process very much and hopefully I will find the time to cycle again occasionally in the future.

Yeah it built bruises and scarring at least
I know some riders that are technically very good on the bike thrive on stuff like this but not me. Give me wide roads and zero technicality any day of the week, I like fitness competitions

its literally impossible to suffer and be depressed on Bornholm

we live from Bornholm

god damn Mads is looking SKELLY

I just realized Bornholm is that little island near Poland

SKA in his new captain LIDL NC jersey
god damn it it ugly

This is were it will be decided.

I wish, but the connection is too bad here

How do professional riders generally feel about going to races? Like how much is them wanting to go vs. perhaps being forced by the team

I imagine all the danes are excited to ride Danmark Rundt, but some belgian or polish rider? probably couldn't give less of a fuck

Ending with three cat.1 climbs in a row. Absolute Kino

>>150198436
they want to go because its a race and they love racing
but it does not matter to them if its in Danmark, Poland, Greece, Germany or UK its all the same to them

>>150198436
If I was a professional cyclist, I would tell my team I would rather die than step foot inside of D*nmark

>>150198083
>Give me wide roads and zero technicality any day of the week, I like fitness competitions
I think I have just the thing for you

Is there meant to be a big gap between these? probably depends on the route. I do a lot of short hills

>>150198436
Beats being sent to Volta in the middle of August, that's for sure

>>150198436
depends on your role as well. are you just a jobber peloton filler or will you actually have a chance to do something in the race.

gonna say it again but Mads is insanely THIN
he is ready for Vuelta

>>150198482
NP is a bit of a useless stat tbqh. Just do 20 seconds sprints at the end of your ride and it explodes

>>150198482
>For a highly variable workout, NP can be much higher than average power, where for a very steady workout, NP and average power are equivalent or very close together.

>>150198535
yeah that's what I did today 5x20s

>>150198528
Dare i say. Mads GC

>>150198436
I remember listening to some interviews about guys in TdF having no idea what part of France they are actually in. So basically most of them only give a shit about the profile of the route and not what's around it.

>>150198542
Yes, well. Anyway time to go to your favorite 20 minute climb and smash it bert

>>150198482
If you maintain consistent power, they'll be pretty much equal. If you do shorter hard intervals with periods of rest between, they'll be difference. Not necessarily good or bad, just reflection of how you rode

nah I'm too fat for that. got a training camp in Spain in september. so after that I'll be fit.

>>150198607
Have you even heard the med journos try to pretend to speak English?

>>150198627
Being too fat does nothing for your watts bert

please pay attention and do the needful

I demand answers as to why his asshole son is so inconsistent at Velogames

>>150198762
It's just one 20 minutes effort, not like you need a week to prepare it. Also it's fun to see how much you can improve during your training

>>150198813
That's running a 5k time trial when you're training for a race. I'll wait for the race.
Anyway it is hard for me to fit it in because cycling is third priority after running and gym.

bro i was expecting ocean view for like 80% of this, not these tiny ass roads

the locals speak Swedish?

Bornholmsk is adorable

>>150198833
You WILL enjoy potholed farmer roads

KWAB. Nothing lost. He was a nobody shitter anyway. Didn't need to write that statement I couldn't read the self pitying nonsense after a few lines. Now the opportunity can go to someone who isn't a faggot.

Now that is proper death racing.
