>Jonas wife Trine is pregnant againwatch this blond fraud do nothing but the TDF and then retire for this seasonno Vuelta, no WC, no Lombardia..........nothing
finally fixed me creaky cockpit. there a was loose bolt under the stem. I didn't even know it was there. a bolt under the stem never seen that before. +10W gained on rampas immediately

>>142125429
>>142125449just let me hope alright
>>142125436Austrian train car gives you Austrian flag, but it's usually banned because Austrians will be Austrians, German train car gives you German flag and Swiss train car will give you no flag at all because it doesn't have wifi.

>Just like Tadej Pogacar, Mads Pedersen struggled with a corona infection in preparation for the Tour de France. Pedersen became infected after the Critérium du Dauphiné, just like his teammates Tao Geoghegan Hart - who will miss the Tour - and Giulio Ciccone.>In conversation with Velo, Pedersen talks about his infection. “For some people it has a big impact and for some people it has a small impact. It wasn't that big of a problem for me. I haven't cycled for a few days, but I had to rest anyway. I have been lucky, hopefully it will remain that way in the Tour.”$what the fuck is going on, is this code for doping for something

>Tadej Pogacar: "About 10 days ago I had a Covid infection. It caused some doubts, but I'm recovered well. Covid isn't as serious anymore these days, especially not when you already had the virus in the past. It was over soon."
Did 1.5hr, chain tight kind of ride. Felt good but didn't go mad. Pretty much just tempo with a few surges, got a pretty high 20m, what I did for my first FTP test this year and felt effortless so we're getting somewhere. Aiming for 15hr this week with some more endurance easy rides. We gonna make it bros. Slowly but surely we're going to make it.
>>142125972Now UAE are joining in on cringe psyops brilliant.

>>142127394what other guys
>>142127244Probably not to be honest. I might buy it and test it. I bought chink shit earphones and they are obviously copied of another pair that wasn't patented because there are load that are almost exactly the same. Very high quality wireless with charge case, 20 quid. Chink shit is where it's at, cheap and now it's acutally decent stuff that's worth the price. Expensive stuff, now are not worth it because of this I believe. Groupsets are next.
>>142127244I've always found massage guns to be too weak
>>142127556I'm buying another pair of those exact earphones that's why I'm amazon looking at all the other shite

>>142127854Memes aside Rogla was not coming back that race. He would have gained like 10 seconds the day he got assassinated.
>>142127770The light played some tricks on us but this wasn't pre-Delfinat Remco.
Tbh, this Tour is back loaded.Vingegaard could ride into a better shape during the Tour to be ready in the 3rd week.

Feels so comfy riding at night, going from people out at bars to an old-money quiet suburb with parks and schools you might or might not have gone to when you were younger. I need to get a better front light though, I'm just using the little Amazon 80 lumens circle things. Thinking of getting an Olite or an Astrolux from the china webshop.
What if Jonas puts even higher numbers?
>>142139511Then we squeak even harder. Simple as.
>>142139636I cannot squeak harder boss, it's tiring
no man can pedal as quickly as I can squeak

>>142128365Reaching level of hopium rarely seen before
>>142139511We all know this is happening, all these prolonged medical procedures were a fantastic opportunity to pump him up and mask him up.Never let a good crisis go to waste.Moreover I think Pog will feel the Giro and wasn't that thermonucleaire in it when he went for it like in the Narvaez stage or on Oropa.Plus I, the autist who had to map out human norm/out-of-norm behavior patterns pretty well, can clearly sense some shift.Maybe he is just getting older but if there is clearly some out of persona things going on.TL;DR I have talked myself out of Pog into Vingego, I also really wanted that extra 4 points.
>>142140323This is a stupid thing to do. Even in the case where pog cracks last week he's going to win 5 stages
Can you bet on it? Looks like rigging is on the menu
>>142140342Is he? He won 6 in a peerless Giro.I think it is more likely he wins 0 than 5.

>It must be nice to be a professional racer. Forget the cliché of the man who eats three peas, today's cyclist eats. In the space of a decade, the quantities ingested during exercise have more than doubled. From 30 to 50 grams of carbohydrates per hour, the norm has soared to 100 or even 120 grams. That's the equivalent of a can of Coca-Cola every twenty minutes. So much so that the pros no longer spend their sessions simply working in certain intensity zones, pushing so many watts, they also train their stomachs, their intestines, to digest such quantities, to get the body used to burning all that energy efficiently.>Runners who are not used to eating so much proceed in stages during training. First 60 grams/hour, for example, and so on. Because, as Inigo San Millan, former UAE performance director but still on the coaching staff of Tadej Pogacar's team, sums up, "if a cyclist doesn't have a good stomach, it will be difficult to reach the top level". Conversely, continues the Basque, "if you told the best cyclists on the planet today to eat half as much, they'd kill you".>Over the past two or three years, cycling has thus embarked on its nutrition revolution, which encompasses both food and hydration during races and training sessions, as well as everyday meals and recovery. The field to be explored in this area continues to expand. The advent of arm-mounted blood glucose sensors was a first major step towards improving exercise nutrition.>Since then, team performance departments have been bubbling over with innovations and developments. Some teams have asked their riders to undergo DNA tests to find out whether their genetic make-up, digestive tract or intestinal flora is hindering their performance. Others are forging partnerships with companies working in the field of endocrinology, diabetes and artificial pancreas, to achieve better monitoring and regulation of blood sugar levels.

>>142141341>This new gateway is the latest illustration of the bridges being built between professional teams and medical research. Most of them are now in contact with university laboratories and biotech start-ups. Obviously, to stay one step ahead, they don't usually advertise it, each side spying a little on what the other is doing. "Everyone goes their own way, and not everything is published in the scientific literature", says Julien Pinot, Groupama-FDJ's Performance Director.>The closest example of this interweaving is that of Inigo San Millan, with his dual role as trainer and cancer researcher, who works with world leaders in certain fields. He often uses the example of the automotive industry, which develops innovations for its competition cars before using them for its production vehicles. Athletes are perfect machines," explains the Spaniard. They have no type 2 diabetes, no metabolic diseases, so let's use them. It's hard to understand imperfection if you don't know what perfection is.">In the same way that watts are used to measure power, the teams' performance departments review a wide range of physiological parameters. San Millan specializes in the study of mitochondria. The name may sound barbaric to the uninitiated, but it's a basic concept for those who have studied the field. In a nutshell, it's the factory, the energy producer of the muscle cell. The better the mitochondria function, the greater the capacity to produce energy," summarizes San Millan. The only place where lactates are evacuated is here. In the case of Tadej (Pogacar), or a world-class athlete, we have a super mitochondrial function that will not only enable you to produce much more energy from fats, carbs (carbohydrates), but also from lactate, which they will recycle into the mitochondria to recreate energy."
>>142141341>rats de labo
>>142141368>For the best runners, this recycling can take place expressly, during a downhill run or a more leisurely section lasting just a few minutes. With this in mind, some coaches measure the efficiency of their riders' mitochondria. At UAE, they use a methodology that consists of studying lactate production and fat elimination, their oxidation, as these are two substrates burned in the mitochondria, thus providing a precise snapshot of how the latter turbinate. The cyclist is hooked up to a metabolic cart and, like a mini Lavoisier, we watch his gas exchanges. At different intensities, how much oxygen is used and CO2 produced to burn a molecule of fat or glucose. This will help you to design training plans to best stimulate mitochondrial function.>Mitochondria are just one parameter among many. Glycolytic capacity is another. If fat is the diesel fuel, glycogen is the turbo, the level at which the races are decided. Glycogen is measured using muscle ultrasound or high-frequency ultrasound. We also test lactates or sweat, for example, to see how much sodium is lost during exercise and adjust hydration accordingly.>Numerous blood tests are carried out, particularly at training camps, where creatine kinase (CK), urea and a whole host of other values are monitored. Everything that tells us about muscular and general fatigue," explains Josu Larrazabal, Performance Director at Lidl-Trek. We monitor this in each training block, to see if some need to go more slowly, if others on the contrary recover well and can go even further." Inigo San Millan, for his part, has developed a test called "Metabolomics" at his university in Colorado. "With two drops of blood, we can see between 1,000 and 2,000 parameters, metabolic responses, recovery capacity, the whole glycolytic or mitochondrial 'pathway'", lists the Spanish trainer.
>>142141341and people are still shocked that riders today after faster than fat farmers from the 90s
>>142141343Yeah that's why I found it weird that some would say he'd DNF. Completing the Tour selecting your stages is the best possible preparation
>>142141385>This medical attention to the smallest detail is a double-edged sword. Improving the science of performance is the hallmark of an indispensable professionalization which, on the one hand, protects riders and their health, a safeguard to prevent their bodies from overheating. On the other hand, it plays a role in improving performance, enabling the best to dominate in the finals, and reducing the number of failures. But it also conjures up images of laboratory rats spinning in their wheels with their brains unplugged, under the supervision of white coats, Frankenstein doctors juggling their physiological data.>"Sometimes it's also the trainers who get their kicks. There are more and more who would like to master everything, but we mustn't forget that in the end, it's the competition that makes the difference."Julien Pinot, Groupama-FDJ Performance Director>Above all, it reinforces, at least in perception, doubts about doping and the idea of flirting with the limits of legality. "I have the feeling that we're becoming more and more enforcers, because science has really taken over," lamented Romain Bardet in this year's Nice-Matin. Julien Pinot, for his part, rejects any recourse to invasive methods. Sometimes, it's also the trainers who indulge themselves," laments Groupama-FDJ's Performance Director. There are more and more who would like to control everything, but we mustn't forget that in the end, it's the competition that makes the difference." On the same wavelength, Inigo San Millan believes that "you shouldn't play with metabolism and physiology". "That's my position, and we're very strict about it", he adds.

>>142141398>To avoid explosions and burn-outs, the "scientification" of performance has gone hand in hand with increased attention to the mind, to psychology, an essential lever for obtaining results, but one that is less controllable and quantifiable. Runners are like us: as long as we don't hit the wall, we think everything's fine," says Jean-Luc Tournier, a psychotherapist who works with many athletes, including cyclists. It's almost like an addiction, but it's not the sport, cycling, that's addictive, it's the way riders live it. To get out of it, they generally tear themselves away from it, they don't part with it. There's no such thing as a happy divorce. But what many teams are in the process of doing, notably Groupama-FDJ, is to really take into account this mental and moral dimension, to take into account the human being in a more accomplished, more enlightened way.">During their high-altitude training camp at Teide (Spain) in May, David Gaudu and his teammates were visited by a psychologist and a mental trainer. It wasn't just pure and simple psychology," explains Julien Pinot, "but also group cohesion, collective dynamics, the creation of exchanges so that they could talk to each other, clear up any abscesses, and work on social relations." Whatever the case, science will not be going backwards; on the contrary, progress is set to accelerate. Most trainers see biosensors as sensors that will provide real-time physiological data - the next big revolution, once they become more reliable. In particular, they can be used to continuously evaluate lactate production. Biosensors are the future," confirms Inigo San Millan. To understand human metabolism and how it reacts to training and competition. We'd be getting real information from the body, with their Bluetooth system, you get everything directly on a phone or computer." Did you say lab rat?Today in L'équipe

>>142141428There is no way the UCI will allow 'biosensors' when they're already banning live data transmitted to team cars. That would absolutely ruin the sport. Power meters already have made enough of an impact in making racing less competitive and volatile. I'm surprised blood glucose monitors are legal, though there's a very good case for health as well as performance. At what point is it just transhumanism?

>https://www.wielerflits.nl/nieuws/deze-tour-de-france-toont-aan-wat-er-fout-is-in-het-wielrennen/>The fact that the 'Big Six' are only now meeting each other for the first time in this Tour is actually the best proof that the current design of the calendar (read: WorldTour) is not correct. A competition with around 180 racing days, with numerous overlaps, is far too much of a good thing. Tirreno-Adriatico and Paris-Nice cross each other in terms of dates, just like the Critérium du Dauphiné and the Tour of Switzerland. As a result, the top players can consciously choose to avoid each other. Something that is not conceivable in any other top sport at the highest level.>ONE Cycling>The past Giro d'Italia may have shown that this system does not work. Pogačar deserves a huge compliment for his performance, but the fact that we have watched a one-man show from the opening weekend is fatal for the sport. The viewing figures for the Tour of Italy became less and less every day. Just as the long solos in the classics by Mathieu van der Poel and Tadej Pogacar were cycling porn for real cycling fans, but the 'football fan' who happens to watch cycling will mainly regard these performances as boring. Unpredictability is the key to success in any top sport.>As cycling enthusiasts, we may like this classic calendar, but the question is whether you can still sell cycling to the general public in this way in ten years. The initiators of ONE Cycling are convinced that cycling will be in danger if you do not intervene now and change the calendar. They are working on a calendar at the highest level of about eighty racing days.Why are dutch so fucking souless? I swear these people will stop at nothing to kill this sport.
>>142142273>The Tour de France remains intact, but the chance that the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a España will have to give up at least one weekend is realistic. The smaller stage races of about seven to ten days should be reduced to a maximum of five to six days. And some top-level European races will certainly have to disappear, while opportunities in other contingents are looked at. For example, work would again be underway in the background on a five-day stage race in the United States, which could be completed in combination with the classics in Canada.>In fact, you fall back on the old, first plan of the ProTour that Hein Verbruggen presented in 2004. A plan that was thwarted at the time by the Tour de France organization. Exactly twenty years later, history seems to be repeating itself and the Amaury Sport Organization (ASO) is once again the party that opposes ONE Cycling. Or an alternative must be presented with money from the Saudi investment fund PIF that is so good that ASO cannot ignore it and where the French do not have to give up any of their rights (read: especially TV contracts).>The most important thing, however, is that ASO must also realize that a change is necessary to retain the general public's loyalty in the longer term. With the 'Big Six' finally together at the start in Florence, the renaissance of cycling should actually start here.Lmao, the tour de france is as popular as ever these guys are absolutely retarded if they think they can buy them off
>>142142273Imean a lot of them met in itzulia, then they would meet again in the criterium if it wasn't for the crashpogi opted for a free giro (and big money) and the calendar had nothing to do with thatideally they would also all meet for LBL but some riders are too cowardly for that, also nothing to do with the calendar

>>142143577>Qu'il se concentre sur son top 18 plutôt que de nous casser les couilles.
>>142144367We lost a lot of Berts over the years.Somwhere in Belgium there is a Bert still doing laps around his house.
>>142144403Are we the general with the highest casualty rate?>Lamebert>Balkan Bomberbert>Stagesurveybert>The other rusbert>Original Bertacek in Bohemian Alps>Houserundtbert>Autismbert in Mongolia>Bikestealingburgerbert>Camperbert (probably became a pray himself)And that's just from the tip of my tongue
Why is Asgreen not at le tour? He single handly won a stage last year.Also can't believe the tour is already starting, where did my summer go?
>>142144455brazilian bicicleta song bert too
>>142144473because he is most likely going to a new team and Patje is petty
>>142144365I'm both
>>142144490What a little bitch. He's gonna regret it when memco loses 6 minutes in a random hilly stage.
>>142144455don't forgot the walmart parkinglotbert
>>142144510nice try but we know thats you
>>142144473It started about 4 days ago when we finally had decent weather.
is burgerbert "that got kicked out of the group ride because he made the women uncomfortable" still with us?
>>142144455What about the Austrian that had a HR of like 200 hours after doing 30/30 intervals despite never riding before
>>142144542Been enjoying the good weather so far, but it was also funny seeing the johnny foreigners all covered up just because it was a bit colder than usual lmao.
>>142144582he didnt make itprobably passed that very evening
>>142144584Some muslims move in recently, the women walk up and down a 25m path in the park opposite for 2hr a day dressed in black burka. We have nice pathed woods and big parks near by. They're fucking retards. Last few days were too hot though, it went from 11 degrees to 30 overnight basically, I was dead, gone.
>>142144455I am not even in Mongolia yet
>>142144615>the women walk up and down a 25m path in the park opposite for 2hr a day dressed in black burkaGetting their steps in, that's why they're not fat.
>>142144615Don't get why they still let muslims in, they never integrate.

Don't think I am adjoosting again but this was a glorious shift.*leaning away no thanks Drake* Looking at results, seeing general trends, watching races, playing odds.*approvingly pointing Drake* Guy looked lean in a favorable, afternoon sun backdrop.
This is the winning team

>>142144934is this even worth watching after they gave the break 5 minutes after this first stage

>>142143731ah yes the "excuse" of mammothly better training and diets and equipment
>Niewiadomasasuga
>>142145113I don't think equipment much better. Training with power meters probably makes more riders successful (previously only guys with good intuition as to their effort and recovery).Nutrition is the quantum leap forward over last decade
Surely nobody will fall for the Lapeira bait
Slippery roads down in Czechoslovakia

>>142145169why has Bredewold pissed herself
>>142145140The bikes basically ride themselves these days. Look at the watts on the next sprint stage. Low watts high speed. Plus the road surfaces are much better and overall strength of the peloton is so much stronger so the pace is always high.
>>142145154
>>142145154Oliver KNIGHT of Cofidis also chuted and was taken to a local (slovakian) hospital. May god rest his soul.

should the dems have got a consulting opinion from cycling doctors? clearly they messed up the schedule on the drug timing yesterday, it wasn't until the second half that it even started to take effect. Visma rapevan would never.
>>142145287>imagine what she does to them.

Reasonable. Probably bump Roglic up to three

>>142146059very seethy post nice
>>142146059And yesterday he beaten the likes of OLDANI, ALLAH, BARCELO, SCHMID and DOUBLE
>>142146080That is not seething at all, just the regular mocking directed at Bertacek
This 'no?' from Roglic speaking manner inspired me to have a little train of thought.What is the rough equivalent of 'innit' in your language?In mine it is 'co nie?' or 'nie?'.I know what the French and Italians say but let them answer too, maybe I don't know after all.
>>142146686>What is the rough equivalent of 'innit' in your language?"ik'?" a shortened "ikke", meaning not. Sometimes danes will even end sentences in english with a "not?". Its more common in copenhagen.
>Anthony Perez portrays a Jonas Vingegaard who is sympathetic, almost jovial with his peers. We're surprised. "The media get him drunk, that's all. Pogacar is the opposite. He loves the media... but never talks to us."Pogibros ???
>>142146686ne, nä
>>142146757Obvious if you pay attention.
>>142146757We've been trying to tell you this for YEARS. Pogacar is a dumb media clown who does everything he does for clout. Probably gleened with joy as he watched Vinge on the ground in Itzula.
Danes seething. Like clockwork.
>>142146955Yeah, he comes off as very fake and transparent. Can't convince normies of this however, they lap it all up. THe cringe with Pellizarri was unreal.
>>142146757wouldn't waste time talking to jobbers either
>>142146757Huh? Redditcar’s cringe show is just a fake front, while serious but polite Vingegaard turns out to be well-liked? I’m shocked.
>>142146757Typical narcisist, don't know how redditor constantly fall for them.
>>142146757tbf hardly anyone talks to french riders since so few speak english
>>142146757cannibals do not break bread with prey
>>142146757sounds like a bunch of butthurt people tired of losing, fishboy is just a tour baby so that's why
>>142147225Perez also raced one day against Pogacar this year
>>142147303>why does Pogacar not talk to me at the Okolo Slovenska / Tour de Slovaquie (2.1)>this is an outrage I'm team fish now
>>142147324he's also raced 0 times against Vingegaard this year who the fuck knows why this dude is squeaking
>>142147324hahaha
>>142147203Very much agree, his team staff yesmen don't help. No doubt they all feel untouchable, he's very arrogant and it's obvious. Attacking from 80km to go isn't impressive when you are 100% going to win anyway. Grug takes it all in his stride, poogacar is just plain arrogant. Just a lucky high responder.
