The Cycling Thread

Actually decided to go and do it rather than watch it.

I will be far slower and far less exciting. Chance of falling off about the same. Chance of heart attack far higher

Not a chance. I was the one in gutter begging for an oxygen mask.

That was a hilly and windy 20+ miles I was not physically ready for.

Exciting sprint today for Giro. UAE completely cocked up in squeezing its own sprinter (or the sprinter took the wrong line TBH) towards the barrier.

Quality stage on the strade bianche at the giro, good win for Schmid but overshadowed by Bernal yet again destroying the GC pack

Egan is looking fucking untouchable!! Those strong finishes are gonna blow apart a few stages in the next two weeks.

Simon and Hugh building nicely…

Finally, Nizzolo finally won a stage after all the 2nd place finishes. Well done.

Just realised that his helmet has COVID-19 travel declaration painted on it.

Love that helmet
Tasty stage ahead today going up the Zoncolan

Bernal untouchable atm.

Will take a collapse worse than Roglic at the Tour for him to lose this.

Joke of a coverage today. Bernal creamed everyone again.

Almost getting Armstrong vibes with how strong he is

Great to see Cavendish back in the Tour de France but why on Earth do the French authorities allow people to get this close?

I don’t remember ever saw a massive crash like that. I think that about 2/3 of the riders were down or blocked.

Summary

Nice win for the world champ in rainbow jersey.

Excellent Stage 2 finish.

Summary

Van Der Peol won and put on yellow. Overall lead by 8 seconds.

Underneath the yellow mac it looks like she’s dressed like Wenda from Where’s Wally. Good luck finding her!

What vibe does MvdP give you??

:flushed:

Unbeatable ones,
Not sure I’ve seen a rider so strong in the classics style stages in my time watching cycling.
That was an incredible way to finish a stage today
