The whole reason Wout hasn't already shipped a minute bringing back roglic is because they believe he can grab yellow today. Kelderman outsider for the yellow today, has an excellent TT and is not far behind Wout.

Bisegger also crashed in the 3rd stage. I have Kung predicted for today.

I think it's dartboard time tbh. So many people have been on the floor, some of them multiple times, the GC gaps are absurd for this early in the tour and they all seem to be jittery as hell.

Those wheels are super hard to find so it’s probably Wurf’s personal set but I’m sure he loves getting named dropped helping a competing team

I love everything about that story. Some mate of the wheel manufacturer and a MvDP fan just drove them 900km so he could have them overnight. Imagine getting that call. 'Hey could you drive 1800km round trip for me? Oh its to give some wheels to the yellow jersey holder.' Its utterly absurd and hes not going to go as badly as everyone thinks.

You think you’d want to hold this story until after the TT in case MvdP ships a bunch of time

For the journo, you want the sensationalism up front. If he does poorly and makes the wheel look bad, so be it.

I looked up wurf and it seems a bit weird Ineos signed a 37 year old triathlete who hasn't had a significant result since 2015

An additional complication is that these time trial wheels are not yet available on the Dutch market. Vando fucked around with this message at 13:15 on Jun 30, 2021 |

Are there any rules about how much the TT bar can cover your arms?

Literally Lewis Hamilton posted:Are there any rules about how much the TT bar can cover your arms? There's a maximum cross section, which is pretty similar. In addition, all extension and elbow rest assemblies must conform to the following : - Elbow rests must be made up of two parts (one part for each arm) and are only allowed if extensions are added ; - The maximum width of each elbow rest is 12.5cm ; - The maximum length of each elbow rest is 12.5cm ; - The maximum inclination of each elbow rest (measured on the support surface of the arm) is 15 degrees ; - The maximum dimension of the cross section of each extension is 4cm. - The height difference between the elbow support point (midpoint of the elbow rest) and the highest or lowest point of the extension (including accessory) must be less than 10cm.
