it'd be even better, if i hadn't gone with sagan. but i had too! love that dude@DA RAIDERS into the top 900 on Velogames. Nice work.
Was I arguing with you about this on reddit earlier today?Geez these guys are idiots. Not sure why anyone sets pace for the leader. Ienos is the worst.
Also pretty stupid of the Tour organizers to load all the KOM points into the last climb of the last two stages.
that's all ineos and skye have ever done. pacemake until everyone pops. but they don't have the right juice, and have no one to match pot of cars. let alone leave him, on a climb.Geez these guys are idiots. Not sure why anyone sets pace for the leader. Ienos is the worst.

wout is a studchapeau Wout Van Aert - won a mountain stage, yesterday’s TT and denied Cavs in a sprint today
hope Tadej Pogačar is clean
given his age & estimated power numbers on 17 & 18 (6.9 W/kg) I’m dubious
really fun Tour to watch regardless
The Olympic channel started being available on my cable during some point at the olympics. I hope it stays on during the Vuelta.Correction: Never saw it and it wasn't advertised, but it's also on the Olympic Channel.
The Peacock announcers are annoying, but you get more coverage. Choices, choices.
Sand said:Sat through the whole Paris Roubaix today. Completely, utterly epic. No spoilers here, but the guy I predicted to win to my wife actually was the winner.
Very much worth watching some extended highlights. What an incredible way to end the season.
Colbrelli was one of my favorites as well... the others all cashed... several times.

great shot!Was able to get over to Fayetteville this weekend and watch the Cyclocross World Championships. Great venue.
No spoilers, but if you don't want to see who the winner was who effing crushed the men's field don't click the picture (my image, probably the best one I took all weekend) - that was the last lap as he wheeled it in - the field was way behind. Women's elite was probably the best race, but the domination in the men's final was unreal. One thing I did learn that in these races you'd better get used to blue (Belgium) and orange (Dutch). Though the Brits did manage to get two wins out of the races (and the women's junior woman, also a Brit, is going to be a star - she's unreal).
Peacock (paid). $10 for this month and next will get you these and the Giro. You can drop it and pick it up again in July for the Tour. I'm not sure if the Tour is on non-paid TV.Are they televising any of them in the US?
My bad - I got it wrong. Here is a good list. $5 gets you those three spring classics. Giro is on GCN+ ($50). The Tour and Vuelta are back on Peacock. I would hope that the Tour is on regular TV, but who knows.Are they televising any of them in the US?
I'm in on an ***Official*** Pro Cycling thread should you start oneSand said:No good place to put this, but Paris Roubaix is this weekend! Van der Poel is the favorite, but it looks to be wide open. The next week is just the best week of the year. Fleche Wallonne (my favorite), Liege-Bastogne-Liege. Does it get any better?
I just checked out the start list... the teams are stacked!Now on to my favorite - Fleche Wallone. That last climb of the Mur de Huy is my favorite five minutes of the year.
I don't think he's going to win, but my heart will be cheering for Valverde to get one more shot at it. His team is going to kill themselves to deliver him to the final climb at the front.I just checked out the start list... the teams are stacked!
