    Strade Bianche 2023, March 4, one-day classic (men's & women's)

    View: https://twitter.com/dirkvangaal/status/1631364026507616256 It's a nice design, although I feel that bright colors show up better on sunny days and leave a stronger impression on races like this and Roubaix. Still, for one or two teams to go dark makes a good variation and it looks cool...

    How Many Minutes Will Pogacar Win By?

    I think it might be closer to twenty minutes than eight. He might even go for the break on Stage 10.

    Giro d'Italia 2021 Giro d'Italia, Stage 20: Verbania – Alpe Motta 165 km

    His best bet for a win might be Yates attacking too early and Bernal cracking. It's far from impossible. I don't know how their time trialing measures up, however.

    Le Tour 2018 stage 11: Albertville > La Rosière 108,5 km

    Felt like I was with Nieve as he sat up for Froome and Dum after Geraint's blazing attack robbed him of the stage.
