Lesser known races 2025 edition

As @search correctly informed me the other day, everything after this Sunday is officially part of the 2026 season. So a hypothetical Mexican championship wouldn't count.

I believe the federation is still suspende by the UCI so I don't think he would even get to wear a jersey if he won the race.

Who the *** came up with that?

He wouldn't anyway.
He rides for UAE...

Silly question:
If Kärcher were to sponsor a bike team, would that bike team be a sport washing team?

Kärcher used to sponsor soccer team Schalke 04. But that was before/after your compatriots Ebbe Sand & Bent Christensen played for them!

I think they're no longer sanctioned. They didn't play in the national championship in 2023 and 2024 due to the ban, but this year they're doing Elite, U23, and Junior categories.

Apparently it was the seatpost they got him for, no sense of humour at all!

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Wow, thats one ugly contraption

Absolutely deserved for this horrendous stuff.

Seriously Van Schip has been doing this for years, at this point he's just trying to troll the UCI, which I kinda admire, but at the same time he shouldn't be surprised when the UCI is just going to get him out when they are done with it.

So, if the schedule on Max says that the coverage of Guangxi starts at around 7.30 (Danish time), I should expect it to actually start around 8?
Or would it be naive to hope whoever's in charge of providing the coverage has learned that they're supposed to show us live images from the beginning?

Okay, so far they are at "let's show some images of the riders in funky necklaces" stage of the coverage.

 

[RedheadDane]

HALLELUJAH! We are actually getting live images.

Another bunch sprint coming up, 25kms to go.

Skjelmose out... well... he did mention that his back was bothering him before he even went to China...
