    TdF 2018 stage 3 TTT Cholet 35.5 km

    Re: It's Brunei's flag, but I wondered that as well. Hoping that they can limit Nibali's time loss. Finishing around Movistar's time would be good.

    Tour de Suisse (2.UWT), 9-17 June 2018

    Remarkably strong performance by Fuglsang. If he can finally combine his best climbing legs with his best time trial in the Tour, the podium is definitely not out of reach with this route. Astana just needs a noticeably better TTT.

    Criterium du Dauphine (2.UWT), 3-10 June

    Let's get some damn live images! Not showing more of a stage like this is ridiculous. GT almost isolated now, while Bardet has teammates up the road is promising for the rest of the stage, though. Also, while I know Nibali is mainly here for training, it is not exactly encouraging that he was...

    2018 Paris - Roubaix

    Cort hurt his hand to such an extent that he is out of this years Paris - Roubaix, Lars Michaelsen (his DS) just said.

    2018 Tour of Flanders

    Massively impressive ride from Mads Pedersen to attack so far out and hold on for 2nd place with all the favourites hunting him down. Especially considering this was his first participation at De Ronde and his young age (22). The young Danes were particularly strong today with Valgren finishing...

    2018 Paris-Nice, 4/3-11/3

    Strong ride from Yates. Tomorrow will be interesting with the Izagirre brothers and Wellens still close in the GC. Astana looks silly now for ordering Fuglsang to wait. He must have caught a lot of riders after being allowed to go since he finished top-10. He just told Danish TV that he was a...

    2018 Paris-Nice, 4/3-11/3

    Today would have been Fuglsang's best chance for a stage win, so they should have let him stay with the front group. Especially when Lulu was dropped this hard immediately after Kreuziger upped the pace. He's already lost more than a minute, so it was obvious he didn't have the legs. With Fraile...

    Teams & Riders Vincenzo Nibali discussion thread

    Great to see Nibali finishing off the season by dominating Il Lombardia. This means he has won a Monument or Grand Tour every year since 2013. Class rider. How satisfied do you think he'll be with his season? Two stage wins and two podiums in his GT-appearances and now a second Monument win...

    Critérium du Dauphiné 2017 (04/06 > 11/06/2017)

    Amazing!!! What a win by Fuglsang! He is at a higher level than ever before.

    Men Elite Road Race - UCI RWC Doha 2016

    Terrible situation for Germany. Degenkolb had a puncture or some mechanical problem, so they don't have anyone in the front group. Great racing so far. Edit: I agree with Arredondo's sentiment.

    Men Elite Road Race - UCI RWC Doha 2016

    Gaviria, Durbridge, and Mezgec involved in a crash. Both Greipel and Kittel are caught behind.

    2016 Vuelta a España, stage 21: Las Rozas > Madrid 104.8km

    Cort proving he is a big talent with two stages in the final week of his first GT. The sprinting field here is quite weak, but he was clearly the strongest and he has been strong the other days going in the breakaway on mountain stages as well. This guy is fast, but more than just a sprinter. It...

    2016 Vuelta a España, stage 14: Urdax > Col d'Aubisque 196km

    The times we received before were way off. The break has 6'07" to the bunch instead. Interesting news because this means that Sky has to up the pace significantly and it doesn't seem obvious that they are capable of doing so.

    The Olympic Individual TT 2016. Rio de Janeiro. 54,6km

    Amazing from Cance! Nice celebration pictures as well! I know this is the perfect way to end his career, but I still really want him to go for another gold in the WC ITT.
