is it a fancy speak for "they had their rain jackets on"?

>>150394728 (OP)
Why did I think the Vuelta was next month? I didn't even realize it started

where's the De Lie edition thread? he just won a GC (2.UWT).

is this the MWW waiting room?

>>150394998
Non-GT GC<1 day<GT. I don't make the rules

Been eerily quiet without schizobrit shitting up the thread (I rarely post). Wonder if he's been knifed up by bag-head Glaswegians.

>>150395076
He's hiking

>>150394525
I don't know she could probably squeeze a few more product placements there and there

>>150395360
if you got a flat tummy why not show it off
the weirder thing is it looks like she's wearing undies under her bibs?

>>150395333
he recommended me some nice hikes for my recent trip to the UK actually. I got to see the remnants of a WWII B52 crash on his recommendation.

>>150395333
He is, but he's up in Scootland.
>>150395634
I think that was me, the plane crash in the peak district?

Tonight's view from the hotel (my grotty tent)

>>150395672
yes, I did a alternative route on the Pennine Way and passed it near the end
Started in Galashiels -> part of St. Cuthbert's Way to where it connects to Dere Street then to the end where it connects to the Pennine Way -> Pennine Way to end in Edale
Lovely hiking, I appreciated your tips from before

Spoke with a cute leftypol German girl first day, biggest lip biting exercise in years. You can not repeatedly mention jews in a positive light around schizzy b, it's just not right.

>>150395727
is this loch lomond? I assume you are on the west highland way

Tent wank most definitely on the cards tonight lads

>>150395748
Do West Highland Way or ur gay

>>150395814
It's very crowded from what I understand and I'm out of vacation days from work. Maybe next year, but I'll try and do it out of season, April or September

Apparently a town I passed nearby (Jedburgh) has an african cult hanging in the forest, I regret not detouring to try and find them, maybe you can try in my stead
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECLzcwonUEk

>>150395784
Yeah, it's actually really challenging this stretch. Past the rwanda hotel or whatever it's called, it's extremely technical single trail. Up and down constantly, kills rythem dead, fucks the knees in different ways. I'm nursing various injures now. Succumb to extreme dehydration today too, I felt drunk but I drank water all day long. My pack is obscene, it's okay when I'm in the zone but when I'm flagging it weighs 2x as much.

You absolutely should do it if you have any experience before, it'll be a challenge but it's magnificent. A few points where you're cut off from society for 15 miles or more. It's great, I'd probably think it's best in spring or very late summer like now. Because humidity will consume you in the summer.

>>150395928
It's good now imo, not many out considering it's still August and it's Bank Holiday weekend. Very few on the trails the past 2 days. But the first day it was packed. It's a good bucket list hike imo, maybe if you had spare days after the cairngorms are waiting for you.

Im yet to get to the real mountains though so we'll see. Maybe it's full of people.

>"We were just moving up with Jonas, who had just had to pee, when a rider in front of us fell. We didn't even brake, and yet we still slid."

>"Unfortunately, I fell right on my shoulder, which dislocated. I wanted to keep going, but I didn't know how to fix it. I asked for help, and they put it back in place so I could get going again."

>"Then something funny happened," he recounted with some self-deprecation. "I went to get some gel from my back pocket, and I dislocated my shoulder again."

>"I had to get into an ambulance to have my shoulder re-dislocated. I entrusted my bike to a man who didn't speak English very well."

>"When I got out of the ambulance, the man I'd given my bike to had disappeared. There was no bike left. I had to wait 5 to 10 minutes for the support vehicle to give me a new bike."

>>150395942
what is your base weight? I'm running ~6kg and find any heavier than that makes life suffering - especially if you have to food carry for more than two days at a time. My knees also came out very worse for wear on the downhills after ~6 days hiking, I'm not used to the up and down for obvious reasons and it turns out cycling fitness doesn't translate that well to mountain walking. Carried on in any case with the help of ibuprofen.

I still managed ~30km per day average over 12 days which I'm quite happy with, but I got home on Friday and slept the entire weekend away. Am absolutely cooked.

>>150395748
I am glad you enjoyed it, if you're ever back in the UK for more hiking I have plenty of suggestions, and would strongly recommend staying overnight in a mountain bothy at least once either in Scotland or Wales

>>150396037
>30km per day average over 12 days
jesus that's fuckin whopper. no wonder your knees are gone. if I did one 30k hike I'd never shut up boasting about it

>>150396018
just gave his bike to some random guy??

>>150396100
stayed in spithope bothy and gregs hut in the pennines was absolutely lovely. I sent £20 to the mountain bothy association after I got home as they were so pleasant

>>150396156
I came to meet friends who are doing the End to End, they were in the best hiking shape of their lives and I was doing everything in my power to keep up

>>150396037
That’s quite good I don’t know how much you need to climb for the highland trail but 25km days in mountains absolutely wreck me you have those crazy geezers who do two etappes a day and finish before two in the afternoon.

>>150396037
As in weight minus food and water? How the fuck do you get 6kg? Minus 2.5kg water, 1.5kg food it was about 18kg. That's when I left, pretty outrageous and I regret it dearly. Brought cool stuff like midge defense systems and various pots and pans.

Starting to get dreadlocks from not washing my hair in 3 days

WHW elevation map, it's absolutely brutal and I haven't hit the big mountains. That is going to be soul destroying.

>>150396254
I went through and calculated, and it averaged 29.9km distance / 782 meters climbing per day. I don't know if that's a lot of elevation or not.

>>150396338
Yeah, minus food and water. Didn't have to carry a huge amount of water since there is so much water sources in the UK. Would just filter 500ml or so at a time and carry with. (NB: This usually works, but in this specific hike was a mistake though, since there was a heatwave on in the first week I was there, was very thirsty many days. Even the boggy sections were bone dry)
My lighterpack for gear: https://lighterpack.com/r/4u3np4
excluding worn weight (and food and water) is 5.6kg

>>150396436
this happened to me, it took a lot of brushing and hair conditioner to finally loosen it up again when I got home. just embrace it, though if it's long enough, you should braid it (tightly) at the start of the hike and that keeps it relative tangle free during the walking

i wouldn't say it's a lot, but it depends on how the route looks, you can have 4km with 10% and then 25km of barely any climb or 30km with 1%, the first one is harder overall

Wellens officially is one of the the 300 best runners of all time

>>150394369
damn i didnt know

>>150397202
>4x Renewi Tour

my goat

Bernal will top 5 this Vuelta. You heard it here first.

>>150397652
would you say he's got a plan?

>>150397276
Explain this then

>>150397202
Vingegaard's stage win (+8 points) and GC leadership (+3 points) propelled him from 73rd to 69th. Vuelta final GC victory is worth 70 points.
Vingegaard thus will overtake quite a few runners, if he does not crash.

>>150397900
roaming outside of eu is ridiculously expensive, he was on the hotel wifi or something

>>150397851
yes, Ineos will win the TTT.

>>150397988
>skide godt egan
kek

gotta say TTTs are pretty fun. they just gotta be in irrelevant races like vuelta

>>150398037
Love my Zwift TTTs. Crazy that I always end up being a grimpeur at like 78kg.

Surely Lidl will win the TTT.
They always seem to do well with that gimmick.

>>150398286
Some even say they have it in the bag

>>150398286
hard to beat these two big dawgs
ineos look strong too

also why is the google yellow man changed to whatever the fuck this is?

business idea: Short stage race with two TTTs and one mountain ITT

>>150397900
Using wifi. Roaming inside the EU is basically free. For example in Nordics I have the same unlimited data I have at home. So there's no point even using wifi. Outside the EU it gets more expensive. When I was in the US earlier this year it was 20 yurodollars for 1.5 gigs of data for two weeks.

>>150399181
Yeah fuck roaming in the US. Whenever I travel there I use my work phone as a hotspot like some cheap third worlder out of principle

Mads destroying frauds on uphill sprints tomorrow(today)
it will be amazing

someone give me a reason on why I should acquire an expensive aero pinarello canyon colnago whatever bike instead of the rather janky and old albeit still trustworthy road bike I have right now
is there such a thing as an aeropill, sorry I just tune out whenever I see you guys discussing bikes and specs in here

also would I look like a right cunt if I pulled out something like the colnago time trial bike considering I can generate wattage similar to eddy merckx of today

>>150397904
Tends to happen when you win a Grand Tour

The Vuelta is in full swing with a day of GC action, and that means another SPECTACULAR edition of /WORLD TOUR WINE/ !! Tonight's edition is an EMERGENCY BROADCAST after my first choice (Produttori del Barbaresco 2018) turned out to be CORKED.

Today's stage meandered through one of the GREAT wine regions of the world - Piemonte, Italia. There are a number of wonderful, beautiful appellations here, including one we've already visited (Barolo). Today's wine comes from the other great Nebbiolo appellation -- Barbaresco. It is grown adjacent to today's start in Alba, just east.

Paitin Barbaresco Serraboella 2021 ($50)

Nebbiolo is one of my favorite grapes, with a perfumed nose and light body anchored by face-melting tannins and profound depth of flavor. Barbaresco tends to be a bit less tannic than Barolo (although a lot of modern Barolo is reasonably accessible in its youth, and there's a few that I drink at like 2-3 years of bottle age that drink great).

Tasted at 4 hours of decanting. Pours a super-pretty pale ruby. Nose is dominated by floral notes, just a whiff of tar and fruit (cranberry), cedar spice, but not deeply perfumed. Palate has steel, but just feels super tight. Tannins drying on the finish and the acidity feels a bit restrained.

Bottle just feels super tight despite a long decant, not much opening of the fruit. Maybe even lightly corked? I didn't want to believe it after a bad bottle earlier today, but my impression seems very discordant from other tasting notes. I do have a very sensitive nose for TCA so the more I sit with this, the more I believe that this is just a bit corked.

So I can think of maybe 5 wines in the last year I have drank that have been corked and 2 were Italian and 2 were Spanish. I drink probably 80% French, 10% German, 5% American, and 5% otherwise, so I just need to ask what the fuck the Meds are doing with their corks and cleaning.

I am down to 7kg with me zenbivy sleeping setup, a MSR freelite 2 and zpacks arc haul 40l. expensive af but worth it if you consider doing it more regularly

damn, didnt know there was this much crime in Spain

>>150400672
(You) for effort. The posters in here are swine.

>>150403444
Why don't they just Lease-a-bike

>>150403284
the biggest problem is always food imo unless you go cabin hopping which is way too expensive

>>150400118
>>150400081
It's faster (marginally) and it increases your chances with bike thots. Never buy a TT bike unless you want to race these things are horrible to ride on

>>150400081
riding is fun. it is more fun with a nicer bike. doesn't have to be aero. I'd get a Teammachine (which I have) or a Supersix (I also have) or a Tarmac (do not own).

>>150400081
I got a fancy canyon gravel bike, but I miss my old dinky specialized I bought used. Didn’t have to worry about roughing that frame up, also I HATE disc brakes.

>>150396018
did they find the bike?

Are European countries just okay with public urination? Do race organisers buy some kind of public urination pass from the government. I once knew a German girl who was totally okay with shitting in the bushes

>>150400081
i think for many people the aero frame is a bit of a meme, because it requires you to hit certain speeds and it requires you to be in an aggressive position and who cares about average speed anyway, once you get a powermeter you stop looking at speed.
for me the main reason to get an upgrade was to get hydraulic discbrakes, they make a huge difference especially when descending mountains in rain. they might also permit you wider tires if you like.

i think my carbon fibre hydraulic discbrake ultegra mech bike i'd happily ride for the rest of my life. if i ever buy a new bike or i lose or break this one, i'd probably get a wireless shifting setup. it is a bit of a luxury but it does provide for better shifting and you no longer have to replace shifting cables or adjust tension, so that is kind of a nice maintenance luxury

>>150403444
I bet the UCI is behind this, trying to teach them a lesson and hired the local crime syndicate. with the UCI trackers the bikes would have been found by now.

Visma steal a bike

>>150398428
>also why is the google yellow man changed to whatever the fuck this is?

>Zingle DNS
one less bike to worry about

more rain today?

>>150403610
Man this makes me wonder, when the stages are like laps in a city or loops in the suburbs like Wollongong was, are they just pissing on people's front lawns? No one has answers to these questions.

>>150403714
when it's cold and raining, some of the riders just piss themselves

>>150403623
>they make a huge difference especially when descending mountains in rain
thats the biggest argument anyone ever brings up in favor of d*sc brakes, yet nobdy ever descends mountains in rain. be honest bert, you don't do silly things like that now do you

>>150403714
they piss in full final while riding in the streets of san remo to

>>150403690
they should allow subs for DNF in the first 3 stages

>>150403746
Happened me twice this year and I don't even ride much and I avoid the rain

Lance Bulgestrong

>>150403746
Nah the biggest argument for disc brakes is the heat when decending in summer. Last july my front tire explodet becasue I was breaking to much.

business idea : shoot thieves on sight

>>150403690
Tbf he did give it away.

>>150403768
that guy looks like Biff from back to the future

>>150403746
well i live in belgium where we don't have mountains, so i get about 3-4 weeks max to ride in the mountans where weather is notoriously unpredictable, so when i'm in the Alps I go ride every day unless I'm cooked no matter the weather

if i lived near the mountains i'd only ride on sunny days, but i don't so i have to maximize my time there.

(also sometimes it's like a cloudy 17C day and then you can leave in the sun and you go over the top of a mountain and suddenly you're in a different climate altogether)

>>150403837
>give bike away
>wtf he just takes it???

>>150403853
it's actually the main guy from The Offspring

>>150403866
>also sometimes it's like a cloudy 17C day and then you can leave in the sun and you go over the top of a mountain and suddenly you're in a different climate altogether
when I was riding in Nice I saw Michael Matthews coming down the Madone in full winter gear and thought lol what a pussy it's short sleeve weather. One hour later I was completely frozen and could hardly brake. True story.

>¡Gracias!

If jappe is in form there's no guarantee mads wins today.
Humiliation would ensue.

it's official now

>>150403837
he actually gave it to broom wagon

>Richard Plugge, Visma's team manager, tells TV 2 Sport that the team's mechanics are putting together some new bikes for the riders who are missing and other teams' mechanics are helping out.
>We are checking them out, and we have to prepare some new bikes for some of the riders, and that requires a lot of work. It was also good that Lidl-Trek and Movistar, who were in the same hotel as us, helped us a bit. It's good to see that the teams help each other.
>The mechanics are doing a good job this morning, and the bikes can come any time, says Plugge, adding that Jonas Vingegaard has not had a bike stolen.

look at this mad lad. I thought 30k per day was insane

>>150403690
That's rough for the TTT. They were arguably a top 3 favourite for that with 8 men. They should still do well enough, but a win might escape them.

I guess it's between Lidl and Ineos now (with your typical Jayco and EF pas normal TTT performances close by).

>>150404552
Joao, Ayuso, Vine, Oliveira, Bjerg will smash the TTT

>>150404552
just get more TT bikes from their store room somewhere in lelgium

>>150404567
could they get a loan of a mish mash of bikes from other teams? is that even allowed?

>>150404546
some of these mfs are insane. Most I’ve ever done at one time was 60km (walked from Greystones to Malahide) in 18 hours

>>150403284
Mind boggling how light that is. I'd imagine it's night and day. Lugging this around is severely restricting my ability to get miles in every day. I feel like infantryman who's been given all the ammo. My clothes are heavy, and I have pairs for almost daily changes. I guess there's weight there.

>>150404563
I've watched enough UAE TTTs to know that they almost always massively underperform. They clearly don't train much for it.

However, having tractors like Oliveira and Bjerg here makes me hopeful that they'll at least not shit themselves and lose 40+ seconds.

>>150404593
lol what a random route when you have had unbelievable mountain hikes right beside you
at least greystones to bray is a nice route

>>150404594
you are walking along loch lomond, you can literally rinse your clothes whenever you like. It’s still warm enough to bathe in the rivers and streams as well. Plus the UK is already such an ecological wasteland you can get away with using a little bit of biodegradable soap guilt free (e.g. castille)

>>150404621
I had already done the Wicklow Way and various cliff walks at this point. I did this the week before I moved from Dublin as a goodbye to that shithole

>>150404594
my first big multi-day trip was the same - went with a tasmanian tiger raid pack which was 4kg EMPTY kek. had looking glasses, books, extra pair of shoes, all unnecessary shit with me. learned from it and now with a severely reduced pack its a completely different experience

>>150404627
I have learnt. I have jeans, trainers, multiple pants and socks. A lot of it's damp now too so that's an extra kilo or so. Tent weighs 900g,sleeping bag is 700g. The bag I'd 2.3kg or so, it is 75l though so not too bad. I'll do this trip again in a few weeks I think. I'm going to lean from this, and I'm not even half way through. Today's essentially a rest and I'll clean things, I've eaten a huge lunch and I'll have a proper wash tonight. I just die after 4-5hr, lighter pack I think I'd do a good 7-8hr walking.

It should however be noted that it is not entirely known how the meaning of Arþiz (Plough;Acre;Farmland) became the modern word Aard (Nature; Character; Disposition).

It is theorized that Ardiz may not have come from Arþiz, but may have been related to a separate word and come from Proto-Indo-European "h2ér-ti-s" or "h2r̥-tey-s", which may have meant something like "Joining or Fitting Together"

listen i'm not saying that i condone the theft of bicycles, but if youre moving around spain, strutting your stuff like this on the public streets, with all those mediterranean southern types, you know you're kind of asking for it

obviously i'm not condoning it but you know, cover it up a bit and maybe this won't keep happening to you

>Tadej is a Slovene male name, and a variant of the name Thaddeus, which means "heart" or "courageous heart"

>The question is whether Mads P. is not at his best. I had him as a big favorite for this stage, but we already saw yesterday that he did quite poorly on a stage where he had announced ambitions. He was good in Denmark, but it was in a field of a completely different caliber. Kubis, who was one of the best in Denmark, has just been run over in the middle of the Renewi Tour, so that may not say much about his form. It may be a bit ominous.

Genuine question: why is Pissma burning their entire team on the first stages like this? They can't seriously expect to keep Jonas in the lead for the entirety of the race, why destroy their own team for nothing?

>>150406383
Gaudu really is a Vuelta merchant
i hope this is not just a case of week on freshness but that he can keep this going in week 2 and 3

Sepp is not a diminutive form of Josef, that would be something like Josefchen or Joseflein. It's a nickname.
Also Kuss is not spelled Kuß, the word "Kuß" does not exist in German.

>>150409578
Yeah I read it wrong, they got rid of Kuß in 1996 is what I meant to say

But Sepp is 100% an old German pet name for boys named Josef, most common in Bavaria and Austria. In fact, in the olden days Sepp was a derogatory term for a group of Bavarians, like "Bazi"

>It’s almost creepy how still Jonas sits, waiting and staring.

>This time at the counter, Mads gets a croissant.

>He sets down the pastry at his own side of the table and a cup of tea in front of Jonas. "You're fraternizing with the enemy," he says, only partly joking. "You'll be eating kajkager with Tadej fucking Pogačar."

>Jonas’ eyes flicker up to meet Mads’ briefly as he lifts the cup, drinks, and keeps his shoulders tense, drawing into himself.

>"I'm nervous as hell," he confesses.

>Mads takes his seat once more, glancing back at the screen. "It's the 17:10 from NCE, isn't it?”

>Jonas nods. "We are going to do… touristy stuff on the weekend."

>"Friendly bike rides?"

There's no proper Mads/Jonas fan fics out there. That's as good as it gets.

why didn't mads turn faster? is he just stupid?

>>150415401
try to turn 120kg fast

>>150402905

>>150409834

>>150411996

Months ago I said he'd be a baker of he wasn't a pro cyclist. He gives me baker vibes.tgis confirms it.

Forgot to paste the results here too.

Tour Poitou - Charentes en Nouvelle Aquitaine presumably should be live on France TV, but I'm not sure about it

>>150417547
Nos isn’t doing vuelta anymore I think tiz is wrong about that

>>150417609
it listed on Vuelta site

>Ricarda Bauernfeind to Lidl-Trek

She’s finally free from Kwabsia

>>150417619
that’s hilarious

ynr Viviano

>>150417249
please understand he's 31 and from the north of England. so basically he's 40

jesus I'm nearly dead last in the games
kinda impressive
I said I would not adjoost and I am a man of my word

Fads Frauderson redemption today!

its kind of a me no watchy stage today

hey wait a minute.. Madsbros what is this?

lots of transfers announced this morning

>>150417967
based

>>150417955
guess fiorelli won't be a cheap giro pick next year...

anyway, can't wait for him to suddenly be a classics top 10 farming machine

>>150417955
top conti teams are loading up for the next promotion cycle

i honestly thought Mads would try for the breakaway

>>150418102
nobody would ride with him plus it’s week one so peloton should be fresh enough to chase

>>150418113
frauds are willing to ride with Pogacar, they will be willing to ride with Mads

ah here what is this lame break? fuck this I'm going gym

>“People are entitled to their opinions. I’m equally entitled not to care” – Jonas Vingegaard has no time for criticism of World Championship absence

>“I won’t be going to the World Championships,” Vingegaard said bluntly. “It doesn’t fit into my schedule. I’m focusing instead on the European Championships.”

>Vingegaard, characteristically unbothered, responded to the backlash with a mix of defiance and detachment in a fresh interview during the early stages of the Vuelta. “People are entitled to their opinions,” the Team Visma | Lease a Bike leader told Feltet.dk. “And I’m equally entitled not to care. I have my reasons for the decision, and people should be able to understand that.”

>Asked directly if he could understand the disappointment, Vingegaard was candid: “Yes, I suppose I can. But it’s my decision, and people have to respect that.”

>>150418256
But he never cares about nationals we should kiss his feet that he’s willing to go to EC

Its a bit weird to have the EC 3 days before the WC that should be the thing reporters should be asking questions about

>>150417919
>hugo tommy
the fuck kinda name is this

>>150417542
Sweet

>>150417877
how is that even possible. I assume your weight lays with gc/climbers

>Jonas Vingegaard leads both the classification and the points competition, but it is very possible that the Dane will not do so after the 4th stage, considering Wednesday's team time trial.
>There are some on the team who hope that I will lose both the green jersey and the red jersey by tomorrow, says Vingegaard with a smile.
>Why?
>They think that our own time trial jersey is a little faster than the one we get from Santini, even though it is not a bad jersey.
>So it is not that I am riding to consciously keep it, says Jonas Vingegaard, who himself is aware that David Gaudu may want to take over the jersey today, when the stage ends on French soil.
Jonas will gift the jersey (maybe) to GODU today

>>150418304
that would be a weird question, the WC in Rwanda is on 28/09 and the EC in France is on 05/10 -- so it's really not that difficult to do both, it's really the question of going to Rwanda that is a problem for many riders

>>150417954
Why no Philipsen?

Honestly yesterday stage was very hard and I’m surprised Mads wanted it so bad. he’s suffering from I call the Wout effect where you’re expected to win those type of stages.

>>150418545
He wasted too many energies in Danmark

>>150418494
"experts" think it's a breakaway win

DNFs of the day

>>150418843
What happened to vpp?

>>150418852

Been vomiting all night

Ayuso and Lidl seems pretty real. He was one of the first to follow Ciccone´s new account and he follows Pedersen, Vacek, Verona and Skjelmose (most of the rest are UAE actual and ex rider, and spaniards). He even changed his profile picture to one showing him in the national kit.

>>150418946
BASED
out with gamergate in with Ayuso

stop blowing kisses you shadow over innsmouth looking ass mf

>>150418477
The TT is at 1.10 though and with a day of travel it is impossible to be fit for both events
