    The worst of race profiles

    There's the Trans-Himalaya race, then there's the Dutchies capping at 5.9 rather than 6 on the positive end of the y-axis:

    Laengen great if Uno-X will ride all three GTs, if not I'd rather have Løland renewed.

    Hope Løland gets an extension. Been showing same signs as in the U23-ranks of being a reliable teammate for for fast finishers as well as having good kick himself from reduced groups.

    Renard moving on, or getting to ride more for himself?

    Wouldn’t be surprised if Frydkjær and O’Brien get promoted.

    The worst of race profiles

    Colombians are built differently. Sixth stage of this year's Vuelta a Colombia starts at 2600m, casually descending to almost sea level and then finishing at 3200m. All the while with a profile/axes making in look like a pretty casual 230km ride.

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Yeah, dude's used this as an excuse before then posted pictures of himself with 3-4 (similar) young-looking ladies as an intended middle-finger to his critics. Not a good source in my estimation.

    The coke-albums are evergreens. I find Lindsey’s solo output to be the most interesting. Special shout for Stevie Nix perhaps being the best track on «Separation Sunday» by The Hold Steady. Lord, to be 33 forever.

    Lindsay being a male rider still results in double takes from me.

    I regret making the Mou thread

    The mou-meme was perhaps tangentially funny last Tour. Been quite a while since he morphed into the kind guy who is funny at the start of the party, but at the end is dead-drunk, spouting nonsense and just wont leave. Time to stop giving him oxygen.

    Kids, I put inexorable in the title as he'll one day be free of the yoke of Jonas.
