Re:

This was hard to watch. The startpodium in the CRI in Costa Rica: https://www.facebook.com/crciclismo/videos/vb.276067275737025/1609875099022896/?type=2&theater. Really have hit rock bottom.

They even had to clip in. :surprised:

I'm more surprised no one could be bothered to just scrape away some of the gravel ... it would take like 10 seconds ...

Re:

Jungels was angry about not winning the TT, so he decided to smash the RR? He won by 9.11 minutes :surprised: :surprised:

Juraj Sagan won by 9m49s
Some of those (national) races are ridiculous.

That's a different case. Slovakia have a mixed race with the Czechs. There was a split in the peloton with Juraj and a bunch of czechs pulling away from all the slovakians.

The czech teams all had riders up front with Juraj so nobody could pull them back. He sat on their wheels and "won" the slovakian jersey.

Luxembourg, yeah, a bit ridiculous.

I would really have liked to see the dynamic inside that front group.
"Hey guys. Mind if I just tag along."

Jhonatan Narvaez, who will turn pro with Quickstep next year, won the Ecuadorian RR yesterday.
