The Dutch kit designer needs to be tried for crimes against cycling fashion.
Holy ***, just heard on Belgian television Van der Poel got arrested last night.
Id agree, it was that kind of what no-ones reacting to that move, its got to be a deliberate let her go tire herself out, oh wait theres only a few more corners to go...Lotte has been quoted as saying she only hesitated for a second and thats what cost her the win...yeah that 1 second plus the rest of the other 10s of seconds you sat there watching AVV just ride up the road. I hope the emotion is directed at herself and all the other riders as well who leave this championship empty handed with nothing
Apparently kids were constantly knocking on Van der Poel's door when he was in bed. After a while he got tired of it and told them in not so nice way to stop it, which led to his arrest. It wasn't until 4 AM he returned to bed.
He should have had a helper of the national team nearby to take care of them.
And also fined for the skinsuit, apparently. Very strange situation and another case of UCI being useless.
Annemiek van Vleuten has been fined for her sock height
Van Vleuten's socks were a high and low point of the women's road race.cyclingtips.com
(FYI, not suggesting she should be disqualified, just that the comissaires should have made her change the socks/skinsuit before the race.)
maybe its an obvious answer and Im being particularly dumb for asking, but how did she end up with non compliant socks/skinsuit, if these are Dutch team issue ? this isnt back to the days of Nicole sewing Sky logos onto her kit the day before the race kind of thing, surely all the Dutch riders have the same "non compliant" team kit, right... ?
Wonder who sent the kids.
You're awake?Lol, nice night for Mathieu
Shiiit...
Compared to the impression I had of the route a week ago, it's clear to me after having seen it in action and with newer profiles that it is more uneven. Mount Pleasant is hard and at times very steep, but I still think it's a quite punchy climb. The long section of flat between the climbs means that I still think it will all come down to the last lap.
Mathieu needs to go see the Red Bull representative in the peloton to get some caffeine boosts... And today is in short supply as only one of the two sellers is working.
Oh well, it became an allnighter instead. Wonder If I can keep this going..
Also, wtf happened to Van der Poel? These kids better be quiet, and I don't care how he said that!
