We’re almost to TDU, which is definitely a real race and not an excuse for Aussies to get more drunk

I like TDU because it’s one of the few non-Tour races on Peacock.

I got up early once to watch Porte stomp all over everyone on Willunga and I'll never get that time back.

There’s no way Ewan is doping, look at his last few years of race results!!!

https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/ri...y-improvements/ 35% of all crashes last year (44% if you include idiots charging for choke points) were caused by 'Unprovoked Rider Error' which is a very polite way of saying Wout cant ride anymore.

serious gaylord posted:https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/ri...y-improvements/ That's quite a low proportion considering it should be 100% of crashes

I was surprised the women’s tdu was only 3 stages this year - had that always been the case or was this years extra short for some reason?

lol Caleb Ewan is joining Ineos also: 124 Productions is a neat YT channel making videos on the history of pro cycling, usually either "X rider's Four Biggest Wins" but there's also some other stuff like this retrospective series on the '03 Tour that just wrapped up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4itqsfIfzPs The videos are a bit rough around the edges, but I enjoy them (and think he deserves more than the 1k subs he currently has!)

Looks like Eurosport is being demised in the UK, with the whole Warner Bros Discovery sports portfolio being consolidated under TNT. Anyone using a Discovery+ subscription for the cycling will need to pay for an upgrade to get TNT streaming. Sad.

Also Wout has to pay 600,000 euros for terminating goods contact to join jumbo. serious gaylord fucked around with this message at 06:15 on Jan 28, 2025 |

i’ve been using tiz, it’s not the best but it beats getting a vpn and paying money to those who’ve made it impossible for me to watch cycling legally.

Yeah I'm not paying for cycling streaming at the moment. Though it's 'only' doubled in price to 15 euros on HBO max compared to the old Eurosport/GCN app. Luckily they haven't stopped Eurosport on ![]()
