Any thoughts on the advantages/disadvantage of riding tomorrow having done the Tour and tomorrow is effectively the last day of the season, versus spending July training for the Vuelta
Team Vuelta- Remco
Team Tour - Pog/MDVP

I feel, looking at the start list, that Ryan Mullan is a certainty for the early break“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0

If this group does stay away, the Danes have a linguistic advantage. Norwegian is pretty easy for Danes to understand, most of the time, while all other Scandies complain that Danish isn't a real language, it's just grunting noises.Warning No formatter is installed for the format0

Looks a lot like the girls race.
No organisation and every man for himself approach from most teams.

Would have thought this circuit would suit the Belgians. Very kermesse like0

Gutting for the Italian, he looked strong but for the gear issue.

Youngest Junior world champ ever
Smashed it at the front the first couple of laps, got into the break, animated the race, and beast mode dominated the race

They probably remember when Al Queada (spelling?) tried to bomb Glasgow Airport and got a kicking. They also better not try it next weekend, I’m volunteering both days🤣RichN95. said:Pross said:It wasn’t as close as it first looked though and it was a marshalled crossing point.
It's close enough. What if something goes wrong? If I was Just Stop Oil I'd see that as an invitation for a stunt at the finish tomorrow1 -
Will Tidball took the Scratch race on the first day too, but I think that was after Holl and Unwin's first gold?No_Ta_Doctor said:

Men's team pursuit finals coming up, DK think it's going to be tight V Italy. They're showing Ganna taking 1.5" back in under a km in the times posted so far, though the Italian middle section lost a lot of speed so he had work to do. They also think Rasmus Lund as last man has more in him than he showed (he's had a back injury, didn't ride the first round, might have taken it a little bit easy in the knockout as they were almost catching the AussiesWarning No formatter is installed for the format0

Tahnee's arm after yesterday's crash. Amazing she could ride any bike let alone a DH one...Pross said:
4 in the top 8 and no medals (4th, 5th, 6th and 8th). That must be a bit frustrating.ddraver said:Home advantage not working (enough) for the DH girls.
(Although some genuinely solid rides by a lot of them)
Enjoyed that, the wooded section with the roots made me wince as that is always my downfall when I ride off-road
We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence
