Woo it's Canada's chance to actually win things.


Now to hope that someone actually uploads the Pan-Am Games track coverage to cycling torrents.

38 at the start of the womens TTT. The temperature has been rising but they haven't said what to.

The UCI needs to add a "no race above 35 rule or something". Temperatures this hot start to gently caress with your brain and that's how people goddamn die.

quote:

At the finish line, there were more signs of heat exhaustion with several riders requiring medical assistance. However, said medical help took time to arrive as several riders had to wait around 15 to 20 minutes to be looked at.

They knew it was an issue but didn't have enough medical personnel. Ludicrous.

“Whether I think this World Championships is a travesty? If I say yes, then there is tomorrow’s headline in the newspaper: ‘Dumoulin mocks Worlds.’ So I won’t say,” added Dumoulin.

“It’s always one of the biggest events in the year, but that is absolutely not the case [this year] and that is because of the lack of atmosphere.”

If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.
It's a huge contrast to the epic carnival of Richmond last year.

Its absurd. And to be fair to the people of Qatar, they're not going to go stand in 40 degree heat to see time trialists. Its just yet another reason it shouldn't have gone there.

I see Yorkshire won it for 2019, so thats going to be bananas.

Wiggins pulls out of the Abu Dhabi tour. Guess he didn't fancy any more questions about 'medical packages'.

He's still going with the team, just not racing .. He just wants to hook up with a bunch of hot brown girls and smoke the hookah.

The team will get back from a stage and open the door to the bus, and sitar music and smoke will pour out. Wiggo will have covered everything in pillows and silks and be talking like some sort of bike riding John Lennon.
