Not discarding PED, but I think there was another kind of fuckery at play in his win today.Cavendish is on fire, the excellent sprint in the age of 39. 💪
WTH? A 39 yr old out-kicking world-class sprinters 12-15 yrs younger than him? Lol.Cavendish is on fire, the excellent sprint in the age of 39. 💪
Pogi doing a double would also be epic. Or the Belgian win everyone dreamt of. Or Rogla finally made it.Bardet with the yellow, Girmay winning a stage, Cav gets his 35th... Netflix will be happy.
I wonder what's next in this fairy-tale Tour? Vingegaard doing a Finestre in week 3?
The writing is certainly on the wall.

The vampire would still be happy!I wish. Sadly I doubt fairy-tales extend that far. I think he'll be much better by the end but there's a world of difference between that & winning the TdF.
Personally in light of that realistic assessment, I vote for option 'outside the box': Juan Ayuso robbing everyone via a sneaky tactical coup on stage 20, taking yellow & then holding it in the ITT.
Aka the ultimate villain arc.
Matxin kissing Ayuso after the Galibier stage was a bit creepy.The vampire would still be happy!![]()
Matxin is like Renfield.Matxin kissing Ayuso after the Galibier stage was a bit creepy.
Did he literally do that? Suddenly UAE tactics makes much more sense.Matxin kissing Ayuso after the Galibier stage was a bit creepy.
Kissed him on the forhead after the stage.Did he literally do that? Suddenly UAE tactics makes much more sense.
That's rather weird. Since Matxin been with these kids for so long. I need to see this to see Ayuso reactionKissed him on the forhead after the stage.
It was a really interesting stage. I mean, three of the 'Big 4' caught the break, no? And then it re-brokeI think stage 9 was really odd, totally illogical. Not only the initial break somehow survived (I don't think they had more advantage than 3 minutes at any point inside last 100 kms), but also the powerful pursuit group wasn't successful. MVDP group wasn't able to close the gap below 30 sec. Jonas was recognized as a real gravel specialist as well, glued to Pogacar almost all the time. Strange times...
