Conditions must have really changed at some point. The top 10 is entirely early(-ish) starters, while the last finishes were all around 100th place. I guess the wind let up a little, but it's crazy that it was actually an advantage

those late starters like nibali andj kruiswijk really hosed up with the wind.

and now eurosport seem to have the superbikes or something commentary.

They're doing stage two of repairing Jakobsen's face next week, using a chunk of his pelvis for donor bone. Then a few months later they'll finally give him some implants to mount teeth onto. He might be able to chew again by February.

was wondering why i couldn't watch the last stage of the BinckBank Tour and it's been moved to GCN RacePass


so at least in the US, cycling is now split between three entirely different paid streaming services because the UCI and the major rights holders can't agree that packaging at least the World Tour races in a single deal might be a good idea :ok:

apparently this is because they didn't inform the race organizers or UCI, and just showed up at the team presentation wearing that

I emailed FloCycling because their website says “plans” (note the plural) starting at $12.50 per month.

The only plan they offer is a one time payment for $150 for the year, with no prorated refund if you cancel earlier. I told them thanks, but no thanks.

One of the better dog incursions of recent years just happened at the Giro. Uphill hairpin, dog running downhill on the inside corner :discourse: They should probably catch it before the peloton gets there, though
