If it's warmer outside than what you'd like it to be inside, then it's too hot. Heck, in spring when I'm used to 12 degrees, then 18 degrees feels hot to me, frankly.
Thats when you get out and start working on your cycling tan!

Didn't catch today's stage, 5 stages and GC dream dead for Mads. But Søren was incredibly strong looking in that sprint!

But yes, 24 degrees is quite hot for Danish standards. Thats full blown summer, lol
 
Cant TOD go outside this flat stamp land and make an interesting stage? You stole Greenland from Norway after the Norwegian King died and his Danish Queen wife survived, as women do.. Make a hill stage there! xD.

Btw stage 1 was first half the most boring ever, and the second half some of the most interesting stage this year. So there is something. xD

Very hilly stage in two days. Puncheur sprint in three.

TBF, then their son became the new Norwegian King.
And then he became the new Danish King when her Danish King dad died without any surviving sons.
And then some stuff happened, and all variation when it comes to names of Danish kings just disappeared.

Anyway, back to the race.

Maybe he doesn‘t know that the rolling part doesn‘t have to be done on the floor.

If he's already on the ground, he can't crash any further.
Would be a rather novel way of getting to the finish.
Just... rolling...

So many words to say we are the same people, im amazed that nobody say that UNO-X is racist though -.-- But since we have/had Euskatel i guess its still legal to have NOrwegian/Danish team.. But for the sponsor its not interesting to have anyone from Albania, nor Japan , Nor Rwanda on team cause their firm is only present in Norway and Denmark.. And btw, if it wasnt for the black plague Norway would be 30 million ppl today xD

Team Flanders - Baloise is 100% Belgians.
Dunno if they're all Flandrians, though.

I like the concept of national tendencies on the teams. If all teams are equally mixed, ethnically, then what do we have to identify with?

The opposite to Uno-X is Team Novo Nordisk. A Danish company, but an American bike team and very little Danish in it.

First of all, while being nationalistic or having a national-centric bias can be problematic in the world at large, it is not racist. Second, history doesn’t work that way, the way folks suggest if x didn’t happen, then we would have y today. If the black plague didn’t happen history in all of Europe would have run on a different trajectory that is completely unpredictable.

Do we have to identify with a team based on its main nationality?

As for Novo Nordisk; quite difficult for them to have national tendencies. There probably aren't enough Type 1 diabetics in Denmark for a bike team.

I dont see any of that problematic at all, if suddenly a Ghana team of cyclists emerged i would support it 100 percent ! Dont need any red haired scots or a blue haired californian on that team , that would be problematic.. Not the other way! x>D
 
One of my favourite riders until quite recently (when he retired) was a French guy.
But, yeah, I support the Danish riders, regardless of what team they're on.
(Some I support more than others due to them being on my CQ team.)
Your a regular in here, ive been here from the start . If you where the owner of Uno-x and you wanted to win the TDF in 2-5 years .. Who would u employ?

I mean Add to the team ofc.. ASO loves Norway after Wc in Bergen, they own Arctic Race and so on .. Norway is insane when it comes to sports. Most olympic medals ever Norway has ..
