De Lie is a beast!

Because they took out 5 climbs because of the snow this morning. Wont be a bunch sprint obviously but it's less hard than normal.

Oh, I didn't know. Thanks.

"Jefferson, mucho, mucho gas, venga, venga!" Best instructions from the teamcar that I've heared in a long time.

 

[Armchair cyclist]

Why is there a 14 year old in the front of the Caja Rural car?

 

[Bolder]

WaWa? Oui, WaWa!

 

[Samamba]

Vlasov thought he won, but Barguil takes it! Arkea 2022 is a completely different thing compared to 2020/2021

 

[tobydawq]

Barguil! Nice move by the moto there.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Arkea showing they can be strong as they build points up to being WT.

 

[Bolder]

Barguil! Nice move by the moto there.

Nearly took out the entire front group…

Wawamanian is running wild, brother!
Also, did those commentator's really not recognize LaTour's ugly as hell climbing style? That said, I kinda feel for him, the motobike actually slowed him down on the technical part of the descent.

I don't know, man. It's not like Latour can go much faster than that on a descent.
I think Hirschi made the wrong call in following Latour there.

Yeah, but the motobike in front of him did slow him down.

Hilarious that Clarke, the guy that was without a contract for a long time, is the one keeping Israel alive.

 

[johnymax]

Barguil now the favourite to win the Tour

 

[Kazistuta]

Why is there a 14 year old in the front of the Caja Rural car?

And why did the driver looked like Ricky Martin?

 

[Mayomaniac]

Barguil now the favourite to win the Tour

Lol.
That said, a good LBL result is possible.

Okay, what's up with the "No Full Result for GP Indurain (or "Indusnow", as Trek decided to call it...)" thing?
And just as I posted that, the full list got posted on PCS.

 

[Stasat]

Meanwhile, over in Thailand, look who did not live up to his name:

52

FAST Konstantin

Roojai Cycling Team

,,

Of course, it could have been worse; he was still in same time as the winner...

Top 3:

1	BOGUSLAWSKI Marceli	HRE Mazowsze Serce Polski	14	20	10″	3:28:37
2	SALEH Mohd Harrif	Terengganu Polygon Cycling Team	5	12	6″	,,
3	KREDER Raymond	Team UKYO	3	7	4″	,,

My former teammate/roommate. An enigma, lives on a daily diet of porridge, more porridge and two cans of lager.

They just wanted to show those smaller Italian one day and stage races who's the boss...

Am I the only one who saw Pippo Fiorelli sprint for 7th in yesterday's Volta Limburg but now can't find him in the results?
Was he disqualified?

No, the official results are just completely wrong. There's a lot of riders missing. For example, 2 Jumbo riders and Andreas Kron finished behind the Riwal riders in the peloton, but are nowhere to be seen in the "official" results. There isn't even a 17th place in the results. Also lots of riders DNF who actually finished the race in the 2nd group. Amateurish stuff from the organization.

I was a bit confused about that as well. Mostly wondering who "Filippo Flowers" is (FB auto-translate going crazy).
