A coffee and a small Danish.

On the TV schedule found on "feltet" (from "TVsporten")
"Tour of Alemania".
I have no idea why a Danish site would use a French(?) name for a German race.

Haven't checked race stages, maybe a Gran Depart in old German property Alsace?

Nope.
And, surely, for a five-day ProSeries race, it's more a "Small Depart".

That's certainly not French.
Citizenship pulled.

My French citizenship? Never had one...

 

[tobydawq]

Your Danish one.

 

[RedheadDane]

Your Danish one.

Why would I lose my Danish citizenship for not knowing the French word for Germany? Well, I do know. I thought 'Alemania' looked sort of similar to Allemagne.

But, anyway. I gave myself an extra citizenship a while back. So, I'm good!

Just because.

Don't you have a citizenship of space, too?
Cause it is you in this video, right?

Here's an informative wikipedia page on how to refer to Germany in different languages. I'm curious about how the Navajo and Lakota languages came up with such unusual names.

I most certainly don't have any idea why a Danish site would use a Basque name to refer to a German race!

I most certainly don't have any idea why a Danish site would use a Basque name to refer to a German race!

So should it be listed as Tyskland Rundt, Tyskland Tour or just Deutschland Tour?

The last one.

Someone's been playing around with the editing tool!

Lol, they couldn‘t find a picture of Slovenian Hindley in the pink jersey.

Perhaps some posting on the Vuelta would benefit from sitting down and relaxing with a coffee and danish.

 

[RedheadDane]

See? Math is hard!

 

[tobydawq]

It isn't. But I have heard Thomas Bay say that you were practically a professor inside the peloton if you finished 8th grade.

I suppose it's a little different now, though.

 

[RedheadDane]

It isn't.

It is! But, to be fair, in the middle of the TdF, riders have trouble with questions like "Where are we?" and "What day is it?"

I'm not in the middle of the TdF but I often still have that question! Maybe it's just a cyclist thing rather than a pro cyclist thing!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

So whenever a dropped rider is saying he's doing his best numbers ever, he's not actually lying.
He's simply miscalculated.

 

[lemon cheese cake]

We are a week into La Vuelta but, despite it being the brighest colour possible, i've only noticed Arkea Samsic have changed their jersey...

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Hey, @RedheadDane, are you in charge of the numbers at Jumbo Visma?

No, even though the numbers are indeed correct.
I'm also not in charge of the grammar! Or maybe whoever is has a lisp...

 

[RedheadDane]

Turns out, there's a bit of a prank-war going on at the Vuelta:
