No need, we also have @armchairclimber!

Welcome to the forum.

So what context do you need the adults to provide them, that you apparently think they didn't learn? The fact that most Danes seem quite indifferent reg. religion doesn't mean Skjelmose can't be religious, and perhaps I need context from an adult as well, because here I thought honoring the national anthem with holding your hand against your heart simply meant being proud of ones country??

No, doing that is not something that has ever been done in a Protestant country. The only excuse is that the world is globalized, and people see all kinds of things, in some cases thereby taking over habits and traditions without understanding the background of them.

I can safely say that neither Vingegaard or Skjelmose are Catholic.

If you're a classic rider now you just DNF right? Seems like the only thing you can get out of this now is an injury or sickness.

 

[Salvarani]

Yeah, not everyone is gonna wake up tomorrow and feel awesome I reckon.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

There also used to be Armchair Cyclist (with a capital C, as I probably would have intended doing) for many years, but he seems to have become inactive/changed name.

I echo the welcome.

Tejada making it rain.

 

[Salvarani]

Lets show Tejada pissing for 10 seconds.

Dude was hosing down the roadway

Nice shot of the bathroom break, while waiting for the team car

Well, just because you're not expected to do it, doesn't mean you can't do it.
I quite like that, tbh. That you can just do what feels right to you.
Except for doing a hand-stand while the National Anthem is playing. That would be weird... cool, but weird...

 

[QueenStagiaire]

GC done for Tejada, he‘s never closing that gap again.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Why do they change wheels rather than swapping bikes? Especially for a leader whose bike is presumably the most accessible.

 

[Netserk]

Pissing away his GC.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Epic rain

 

[Salvarani]

Pissing away his GC.

He should show more respect and stop taking the piss

 

[Samamba]

We might see weird things here. See a lot of riders already shaking with their hands to get some warmth.

I read that as "shaking with their heads"...
Well... if it works...

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Oh no, he was giving the p!ss...in a torrent

Auron just now:

EDIT: To be fair though, it's currently freezing at the village and it will begin to snow this afternoon.

 

[Salvarani]

Auron just now:

No snow on the road...

 

[Boehmand]

Ask carolina. She was the one who posted it had been mentioned on Portuguese ES.



There's also this article from last year:

Mattias Skjelmose never gives up

Danish cyclist Mattias Skjelmose has experienced more than most people these past four years. Rouleur talks to him about growing up at high speed

www.rouleur.cc

Hadn't seen that article before.

What a great read!

Have you put it in the Skjelmose forum?

 

[RedheadDane]

Have you put it in the Skjelmose forum?

The thread? I think I did... last year...

 

[DNP-Old]

Carlos really hates the cold.

Auron just now:

It was always a possibility that it would be OK by today, but perhaps better that changes of plan were made at a time when any operational or tactical changes could have been made rather than being faced with last minute changes had they been necessary. I guess it depends on how many days in advance the forecasters would have been confident that it would be passable by today.
