With a 3:15 PM start of the broadcast tomorrow, and assuming that there will be 30 minutes of pre-recorded stuff first, they will again show less than half of the stage tomorrow :thumbsup:

I'm just happy they show more than the last 30 minutes, as was the default for the Giro Donne.

Ladies Tour of Norway or as it's now known Tour of Scandinavia started today and the first stage is in Denmark, and frankly it should be illegal to add "hill" climbs to any Danish stage.

Could someone explain the situation where Spanish cycling isn’t letting former Zaaf cyclists ride La Vuelta? I’m getting this all from twitter headlines but Zaaf wasn’t paying its riders? Why would you stick up for a company that can’t make payroll?

tl;dr: if you join a WWT team the UCI takes over the contract, while if you join a conti team the contract is with the national federation, and the spanish fed is scared of being sued by a dead team.

Reminds me about how everyone thought Uran would challenge the top 3 a few years back and were always surprised when he got dropped on every climb.

I have very fond memories of being in a discord with the worlds biggest Uran fan and seeing him spiral out into despair every single day.

The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) confirms the decision taken today by the UCI Commissaires’ Panel officiating at the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift against Mr Danny Stam, Sport Director of the UCI Women's WorldTeam, Team SD Worx.
The Commissaires’ Panel’s communiqué indicates that, after careful and lengthy review of the available TV footage, which clearly shows the particularly dangerous nature of Mr Stam's overtaking of other cars and riders during stage 5 of the event, and in view of the inappropriate comments made by Mr Stam to the UCI Commissaires’ Panel, the Panel has imposed the following penalties on the Sport Director, based on articles 2.12.007/4.7 (last paragraph) and 2.12.007/8.2.2 (last paragraph) of the UCI Regulations: a fine of 500 Swiss francs and exclusion from the event.
The UCI will make no further comment on this case.

"I think it's a bit strange. It's a heavy punishment. What can I say? It won't change much. I have to accept it. The UCI always has the last word.

I have not been given a clear reason. They have only told me that I cannot continue. They did not think my action yesterday was possible. I have not yet reviewed the images, no. I know very well what I have done. In my In our eyes it was not such a strange action, but opinions are divided on that.

"I think it's a bit strange. The penalty is also heavy, although it won't affect the riders of our team. I'm not allowed to be in the car anymore, but I'll stay here. I think I'm still here enough can have value."

I’m wondering if a ton of emergency pothole filling is going to go on through the night, if someone in that race finds one and stacks it.

Yeah, the women are going through it right now and it looks awful.
