Which broadcaster said last year LottoNL-Jumbo was doing an amazing job identifying and committing to young talent? They look stacked for years to come.

The cameraman and directors on the EC road race are clearly not too experienced in this kind of thing, the BBC was just treated to a far too lingering shot of multiple rider comfort breaks to the point a whole bunch of dick n stream was front and center And then a very hasty shot change

It's gotta rule to make it into a really good group, and then your teammates are like "nah, that guy sucks honhonhon" and start chasing edit: imagine if there were time gaps, or at least footage of the chasing group, in this broadcast. phwoar i've said it before and i'll say it again: complaining helps Smirr fucked around with this message at 16:01 on Aug 12, 2018 |

interesting way to win a cycling race: https://twitter.com/oleksieradz/status/1031207100775575552 rumour is team Wibatech sold the win to Team Minsk before the race so when Marek Rutkiewicz from Wibatech escaped solo and was close to winning he stopped riding until a rider from Team Minks caught up and beat him in the sprint. I don't understand the commentator but he manages to sound super excited all way through despite the obvious fishy thing going on lol

Richie Porte will be riding for Trek Segafredo next year which hopefully means that Tejay finally will be the big BMC captain.

BMCCCC is unlikely to have a GC "captain" unless the rumors about G are true (they aren't.) They'll just focus on GVA and the spring classics for a while.

I missed the first stage, but the second stage of the resurrected Tour of Germany was pretty entertaining. Very punchy profile, nice four-man-sprint won by Schachmann by a wheel length (he still wasn't sure that he won though, wtf). Looking at the quality of the start list is pretty funny - ASO must have thrown all of their weight around. There's 11 WT teams alone at a 4-stage 2.1 race. They even strongarmed living cycling legend Geraint Thomas into starting Meanwhile, the Great War Remembrance Race is also on and the Belgians are remembering the poo poo out of the war https://twitter.com/BMCProTeam/status/1032990501505523713?s=19 Smirr fucked around with this message at 15:01 on Aug 24, 2018 |

At some point, I'm gonna need an explainer on why Sweden, Greece and Finland are such non-entities in road cycling. I guess the Greeks can't afford bikes and the Finns are busy driving rally cars into trees, but what's Sweden's excuse? Especially relative to Denmark and Norway (who have (had) a bunch of famous riders to drive youth recruitment, I guess, but that would also have been an option for Sweden).

It's 100% 'because nobody in <country> watches cycling so there's no incentive for teams to bring through their riders for sponsorship reasons'
