First for RemGOAT
Mentally i am in picrel
Remco the real winner today
WAAR IS FISHBOY
>>142333264Already hidden again?
how many minutes will fatco take on everyone else at the ITT? 2min?
>>142333345It's been flagged
>>142333345
Is his G doing his podcast for the race? or does he have some shame
>>142333311A blessed place, add this to the top left of the Bert Gardens picture
i thought vingegaard had become a better descender than pogacar. maybe he's not willing to take as much risks now that he has a big house
>>142333377based flagger
>>142333388He matched Pogacar on the technical parts. When it became down to power, Pogacar was superior, as you'd expect.
>>142333377who could be behind this flag
>>142333427what about all the guys the gained on him
>>142333473Rodriguez is the best descender of the GV favs, by far
Just watching it now he only had 10 seconds on top of the mountain. Why didn't they catch him?
>>142333388Pog was never a bad descender. Just not a great one either. He is getting better over the years. People forget he won last year's Lombardia on the descent.
>>142333388He was scared and clearly holding back
Mikel Landa lowkey goated with the sauce this year
well done pogi, however its not over till the final stage TT
>>142333553Spanish fans on twitter are going nuts for him, posting a lot of funny shit
at least wout is free to go for stages now
>>142333388vingo was so gassed at the finish that he couldnt even contest the sprint anymore, its over
>>142333560I think Pogi knows this considering that's how he won his first Tour.
imagine Jonas wins the TDF on the last TT LeMond styleha ha
>>142333377That doesn't seem like the right account. 10495058 is the verified one
>>142333575if anything he is needed more than ever in the gc battle
remoc is clear of roglic thats crazy
>>142333642what a brutal mog
Jonas looks frail. He usually has thicc meaty legs
>>142333702>loses weight>loses the tourwhen will they learn? if jonas puts on 20kg he would steamroll everyone again
On the Monaco stage at the end are they going to mention how many riders live there to avoid taxes?
>>142333702G said the opposite, said his legs look bigger than the last years
>>142333702>>142333736His position on the bike looks different too. I'd bet he's leaner than ever. Not looking good for the TT
>>142333736if that was the case there are some meaty berts waiting for a contract
>>142333786put me in coach
>>142333779get a photo of him on the TT last year. he was chunky buttocks king
>>142333786Our time has come
remco being 2nd in gc after Col du Galibier was not on my bingo list
>>142333786weightmaxxers living their best lifestarvationberts in peril
>>142333906my king
Bernal uploaded with power. 344W on Galibier. Doesn't seem that good to me. His time was way faster than the Schlecks and the same as Nairo when Nairo was good.
>>142333968schizobrit doesn't even consider this amateur level
>>142333968WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?!
feastingberts we are feasting
>>142334000what I always say. that the dopers were mostly jobbers. and it is no surprise that riders today are faster
>>142334000that he will post here soon
>>142333388big house two kids it’s over for him
>tfw name too long
>>142334023
>>142333968was just about to post that and they had a headwind today. PCS has Bernal at 60 kg. It's over boomerbros our idols are barely amateur tier now
>>142333968>below 350 wattsOH NO NO NO NO
>>142334081Maximiliano Richeze
pog last 8km: 1686 VAM @ 6.88% = 6.27 w/kg (not accounting for drafting)>>142333968lol
>>142334165show me with actual or I don't want to hear it. fookin nerds with their estimates belong in a bin
What went wrong?
>>142334201Based. Those w/kg estimators is probably my least favorite part of the cycling folklore
>>142334165>not accounting for draftingcompletely useless then
>>142334033oh... ok.
>>142334120So Pog did like what? 400w avg? This is what everyone is squeaking so hard about?
>>142334275I wouldn't mind if they didn't act like they are close to 100% accurate when they are guessing about 5 different things. Just admit it's a flimsy guess that could be miles off. Also they clearly rig to make the times look more impressive
>>142333560now I want a burger
>>142334350They should put interval confidence, but then all their squeaking would feel stupid
fish is capped ngl fr fr
ifugg :DD>>142334762
>>142334201Bernals VAM lines up with Bernals actual data, therefore it is reasonable to assume that Pogs VAM does the same>>142334284no it shows the upper estimate of pogs performance
>>142334480Pogacar did somewhere between 4.2 and 14.8 w/kg!!!
>>142334964I did 6 w/kg today (720 watts)
Could elite win the vuelta with this shape?
>>142335244If the form lasts 3 weeks, yes. But does it ever?GTs are all about recovery.
which vuelta is on now
>>142334876its gravel sectors isnt it
>>142335387El Grande Vuelta a Francia
>>142335244He'd get dropped on km 40 and ride 170km solo and somehow only lose 6 minutes one day
On top of GalibierPogacarVingegaard 9sEvenepoel 18sRodriguez 39sAlmeida 39sAyuso 39sLanda 40sRoglic 40s
>>142334876>>142335388ye the black bars mark all the gravel/dirt sectors
>>142335517it's rogover
Based Juan Mauricio Soler still has the Galibier record of 2007 (from the other side(
>>142333553Landa QS is the best arc of 2024
>>142335334I think the Vuelta will be a weird race this year unless Pogi ends up going (even then he'll have an insane number of race days by then). Pretty much every GC contender for that will have a Tour on their legs (+ Olympics for some). It could become very unpredictable.
>>142333573share the funnies
okay, it's not over but (big if) pog can just play it safe and continue to win 10-20s per mountain stage with the final sprint then fishboy is fucked. no superhuman "d'une autre planete" TT will bring back 2.5-3min. pog clearly has the team for that.
>>142335758Of course. When the king og having a bad day, Remco, can win it, everybody can.Point was just that you can't judge someone's GT potential from a stage or even a week. It's way too easy to suddenly bonk and get completely fucked because you can't really measure your recovery.
I'm not gonna lie, that was a pretty good stage
where is the 5 star favorite oscar onley?
>>142336262>42 ONLEY Oscar +9:53
>>142336412vinderchuds in the mud
>>142333736he just needs puberty to kick in!
Pogacar in grand tours won stage 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 15, 16, 17, 20
>>142336412post-axelturd vinderbuds ...not even once
>>142336447And 18
>>142336472that was the axelturd prediction
>>142336494oh
>>142336510his replacement is doing better than him
>axelturd didn't even give Remgod a star
>>142336568Face doesn't look too tired
35-mates...
>>142336447Anyone win all of them? Looked up Cipo: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 (,22)Damn, that was close.
ayuso needs to get booted of the team
>>142336752Almeida had shout him to the front
>>142336568Remgod is winning this tour
>>142336700freddy maertens is surprisingly far off
>>142336921Merckx probably did it, but half stages and what not make it a mess to count.
>"I expected to lose 2 minutes or more, so to be only 50 seconds behind is still quite good. My time will come" If everytime you say you expected worse in the interviews then technically you are never today's loser
>'We expected to lose 2 minutes!' - Jonas Vingegaard after Stage 4 of the Tour de Francehaha the new cope is out!°
This is where we take the yellow, memco sisters
>>142336609>>142336442new-found success got into his head
>>14233699245s in 25km with Pogacar's current GT shape is impossible
>>142336992and this is where we die in the yellow
>>142336955low expectation management is indeed a powerful tool
>Pogacar wins the 5000€ of the Souvenir Desgrange
>>142336966fishbros we really are winning so hard
>>142337077It's not for the money but for the PRESTIGE of the Souvenir Henri Desgranged
>>142337077what is the easiest job in the UAE team that gets to PROFIT from all the shit he rakes in
>>142337037do you bike switch here on the top of the first hill?
>>142337207bike switches are retarded
>>142337207yes, start with road bike and switch to tt bike there
>>142337232I respectfully disagree
>>142337232bike switches are fine, helmet switches cost you a GT
>>142337284if you switch you switch on the col d'eze
thank you google, very cool. anyway, he's back (allegedly)
>>142337207Nobody will switch
>>142337349being able to keep up 30 seconds more the christopher juul-jensens does indeed mean we are BACK gaudi bros

>>142337435irishbert is right, he does look kinda weak
>>142337386Full TT bike then?
They're really full on week three hopium at Visma
I am cheering for the Netherlands
>>142337590doesn't help that his team is kinda shit this time. he's isolated in the passes without Sepp and Crashweak. Wout isn't even pretending to care
>>142337435
>>142337730In Wout's defense, even after the crash he said he would rather not do the tourbut lack of options and the dead team had other things in plan for him
>>142336992Time gap is too big I think but on current form he could win that time trial, I think Evenepoel must be pretty happy with how he handled the first big mountain stage test
berts remind me, why Sepp isn't riding TdF?
>>142337664>Roglic will attack him on the flats in between the mountains at the valley green Wout will be a satelite sneederson will pull with Kuss and make tempo for Jonas so we drill the rest of UAE away
>>142337949He retired because of a heart condition
>>142337949didn't you see the interviews? he was clearly going to outshine fishboy
>>142337949Covid
>>142337581ThisAlso, when I used to watch tdf 15 years ago, the winning riders would sit behind their teammates 95% of the time and attack to get a lead at the steepest and longest climbs that ended the stages only. I thought they were maybe 3% more doped up than the rest, that's why they could afford to be fresher, quicker for this 3% of the time. Now I turn on the highlights for the first time and I see the winners literally attack on flat ground alone at the start of the tour. Shouldn't a peloton just be able to hunt them down with ease? With a different rider sprinting and taking the peloton lead every few minutes? Isn't draft and air resistance a thing now? What happened? How do the riders ride alone in the wind now and gain an advantage? Especially on a 3 week race. Wtf.
>>142337949assassinated because he wanted to fight for they yellow (would have won)
Missed out on the stage kino because I was out riding and then babysitting, could only watch it now. Weird to see both Yatesis drop so early, and Vinge was weaker than I expected. Had a blessed ride again, nice weather and good roads.
>>142337949He was talking about winning the tour a week before GD
>>142337949>>142337994thought you meant sep vanmarcke my mistake
>>142338003>>142338037>>142338071our boy finally went insane
>>142338071and a week or two before that gave an interview he would have won the vuelta if they had to fight it out
Dutchoids cheating in footy lmao
what's their end game?
>>142338323Don't care, Marlen scored
>>142338067nice and low intensity pilled>19 minutes pausedTaking in the sights or fighting a grizzly?
>>142338337is lenny being poisoned or something
>>142338509There are no Grizzlies in Europe
it's more than obvious they took ARE SEPP out for insubordination and speaking his minda pox upon LAB twobehonest
>>142338067imagine getting babysat by a guy with a 300 W FTPngmi
>>142338576>There are no Grizzlies in EuropeThank you for the information, I already knew.
>>142338570I heard they make him ride the tour on nothing but water and 3 thin slices of bread in the morning as punishment for his betrayal to the French people
>>142338323we rigged it for themthey should be thankful
>>142338576they have bears in slovenia
>>142338794
>>142338854but not grizzlies like he said
Has the scum rat achooso been discussed already? I was keking when Joao started screaming at him, then his fake suffering on the front whilst then perfectly tucking in behind Joao again. Some UAE staff then cuddling him at the finish, that team stinks.
>>142339013yes
>>142338941ahem
According to the yt comments the Visma shill is coping in his podcast

Hello it is me, Rusbert. Definitely the real one.
>>142339530Hello Real Rusbert
>>142339530
rustism bert posting from a gulag. good to know.
>>142339530big fan
>>142339530Boris test: What is your opinion on tall women?
>>142339153he cute
>>142339530post picture of your studded tires or a birb then
>Pogacar already has as many TdF stages as Sagan
>>142339153That's a Brown Bear, smaller than a Grizzly
>>142339768what if that tree is very big
>>142339595Are there Russian sites or apps where I can book hotels Rusbert. It is a bit annoying to just have to show up somewhere and hope they have room. And then a rude lady is rattling off all sorts of shit and even though it is clear my Russian is not very good they will make no effort at all to use simpler vocabulary or speak slower. It doesn't really help repeating the words that I don't understand over and over. But ANYWAY that is the true Russian experience of course
>>142339530this must be an example of the famous maskirovka
>>142339815there is, of course. you can try Yandex Travel. they have a site and an app
>>142339768it clearly says grizzly thoughit seems Americans don't read so good
>>142339852is that what's really behind the mysterious meat cubes in russia?
>>142339815also yandex taxi has almost a monopoly in taxi business, so worth to install that too
>>142339530Hello real Rusbert, I have notice a mistake in flags, switched Kasia's Jersey to Polish, I hope this is ok.
>>142339975>>142340042Hmm alright I will try to make sense of this and whether anything is possible to reserve without a credit card. My Mastercard is of course useless here. Spasiba
>>142340100Isn't that Italianbert who is not Bertollo allegedly IIRC
>>142338225>ynr all berts (and journos) saying that fishboy dunking on evil karmic rog was going to win seppy's loyalty for lifeKEK, too bad they forgot he's an amerimutt so now that just made him think he can win tdf and every other race
>>142340154should've brought a bad of yuan KEK
>>142340237Vaughters will be happy to sign him
>Spelled Juan>Pronounced hWan>Spelled João>Pronounced Shoe-OwMake no dang sense
>>142339768who made you an expert on bears? what kind of bear is this?
>>142340272how that's gonna help? you can easily exchange cash euros or whatever in any bank.
>>142340222It is, just messing with you me Autismbert.Although I thought this is Bertolo the Profilemaster himself too.
I am very happy with the start of this tour. Soulful stage winners. Jonas is better than expected. Remco is better than expected. Roglic is worse but not losing time. Pogi doing Pogi things. Landa is now better than Belarus. Big TT coming up. Should be good.
>>142340301If he wasn't signed till 2027 I'd swear he already signed a contract with another team with how he's been riding
>>142340348is that Cold Stone Steve Austin?
>>142340369No he always says he doesn't play, PPATTT!
>>142340369Bertollo doesn't have time for stupid games
Women's TT in Iran today. Is that even allowed over there? Must see can I find some photos.
>>142340363Yes I exchanged my Tenge and I still have a couple hundred eurodollars stashed away that I can change later
>>142338067Very cool, went on a post-Tour ride meself, luv long summer days.It was windy as fuck and boy was the wind cold. Surely winter is a-coming.At least I didn't get rained on which is a first in like two weeks.
>>142339758>Pogacar already has 3X the amount of monument wins as Sagan
proper ride that, got a boatload of PRs today and a new 15min best power at 332 watts (also new max HR at 191, but realy did not feel that bad at all)
>>142340363I'm sure you can, profitably even. But if I must explain the joke, it was a jab directed at the fact that credit cards won't work, so you need cash. Also, Russia is flooded with yuan, having difficulty offloading it, and:>Russia, hit by new US sanctions, halts dollar and euro trade on main bourse by Reuters
>>142338033>and I see the winners literally attack on flat ground alone at the start of the tourthis didn't happen
>>142337736DamnPEAK PERFORMANCE
Ottomans marching on Vienna
Big distance from 8th to 9th on GC
>>142340915it is bad already let me tell you. the odds of some muslims stabbing someone today is > 10%
there's now a German shizo cycling channel as well?
>>142340831this is about international trade on big scale though. it is not affecting regular people's every day transactions. the irony of this whole affair is that only credit cards issued outside of Russia don't work. inside there weren't any changes at all. I still use couple of visa and mastercard cards that haven't expired yet. will re-issue them as mir though so they would work with mir pay app on me phone
>>142340995I'm expanding
>>142340933>this is attention paying in 2024
This is literally the most competitive and entertaining tour we're going to have since the pre sky era
I'm holding in a fart rn
>>142341127And we have to thank Remco for it
>>142340797That's a nice ride, I did a similar leg opener a few days ago just going and letting loose. Surprising how far you can push yourself when unloading.
>>142341148Is it risky?
>>142341159True, if he didn't slip that corner vingo would have won today
>>142341196Very
>>142341127too bad they went full giro with the course so we have to sit through all the slurpers now
>>142341127unless TdF 2014 type of event occurs
>>142341127very true, no matter who wins, ciclismo will feast>Verification not required
>we expected to lose 2 minutesnew visma gigacope just in
>>142341127>competitive Pogacars only rival just came back from a serious crash, his team is nowhere to be seen, the 'rivals' are looking shite. UAE will get 2 on the podium and 4 in the top 10. This is not 'competitive', far from it. More french cope I see.
>>142341254You're fat
>>142341247source?
>>142341247Danish commentators were saying this from the beginning
>>142341317https://youtu.be/XuhV1VyEP4c?si=iF4nijbHkIzoX7TY
>>142341247Everyone was expecting that. Today was a disaster for UAE.
>>142341315>You're fatpost watts
>>142341247But how many matches did he burn?
>>142341009you can use it there because it's technically not VISA / MC anymore, it's instead backed by russia itself. Conversely, russian issued cards would not work outside (except maybe for China, I have no idea if it was integrated into their system or just roughly copied).But yeah, of course people will take the dollar/euro since they are in short supply, it's just that spreads were so high that they had to do an argentina there to try to contain it from spiraling.
>>142341401Hmm interesting. Wonder by how many minutes Vingegaard and visma are aiming to lose the tour de France by to consider it a successful execution of their plan
>>142341500Week 3 Jonas will gain back all the losses. That is the plan.
>>142341317>“We came here believing we’d lose time in three of the first four stages, so to lose time on just one is pretty good in my opinion. We thought we might lose two minutes or more, so only 50 seconds behind is quite good. Our time will come.there's probably some article on hln or wilier fritz as well.https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/our-time-will-come-jonas-vingegaard-still-in-the-game-after-first-tour-de-france-mountain-stage/
So he only lost 10 seconds on the climb and the rest on the descent. Not bad. But lucky there was a headwind or Pog would have gone sooner and likely done more damage. He was still better than Remco and much better than everyone else at responding to what was a nuclear attack.
>>142341568Wingfarm did NOT age well!
>>142341568Imagine if Remco said this
>>142341568>we expected to lose time on a 5km 6% climbWhy do they need to lie every time

>>142341471not sure I understand. you can exchange pretty much any currency in regular banks. I don't think there's much demand for euro/dollar, because there's no use for them inside the country anyway. Sber app nowadays shows exchange rates for CNY, AED and USD. guess euro isn't in demand rn.
>>142341565But unlike last year pogi is dictating the pace. Vingo would have to go above his level from last year's TT to be competitive

>>142341933Yes
hear me out. worm blood

10-20 would be a good top 10 GC in any other race. Look at all these top jockeys

>>142342277Ratcoin rock bottom
>>142342418dafuq is Landa gonna do. cmon now. two TTs to come
>>142342350Simon already thinking of those sweet jumbux

>>142342499>He doesn't believe in the indominable spirit of Landismo
>>142342105>>142342143yeah, lab doesn't have the team for that. UAE can literally skytrain the rest of the tour and pog sprints to gain 10-20s at the end. After a few stages that would be a 2-3min lead. If fishboy jumps early they have the whole team to pull him back. I'm not saying it's over, but there is a safe way to play this.

>>142344144Yes sir mr. Mashin I believe you
>>142344144Damage control
there is 10 stages before we get the next mountain stage
>>142344144In the end it's a good thing to gave Ayuso close in the GC. He will win friday's ITT
Almeida vs. Ayuso could be a generational 90's-00's Vuelta single-team rivalry but they're stuck riding as Gregarios in the Tour. It's not fair
>>142344320>not looking forward to the ITT>not looking forward to the gravel stage
>>142344320Doesn't mean there won't be any GC action. Stage 9 might be juicy. We all know how much guys like Rog and Remco love gravel.
>>142344425>>142344467that gravel stage is going to be a huge nothingburger
>>142344099I smashed a rampas climb once. Check on strava later and I got 2nd. Zingle 1st like 30 seconds faster on a 2 minute climb
One of these young Aussie riders beat Pippo Ganna in a TT today, can you guess which one?
Stage 11 might be fun too. Some juicy punchy climbs.
>>142344678kek, since they do so many classics around me all the KOMs are pros in races and I'm not even close. Fucking 47km/h tractor tim leading the peleton even has some
>>142344749Yes, we have paid the thing and Brtek kept us informed.
>>142344749What do you mean, we all watched it live, nobody has to guess
>>142344749yes I did pay attention today
>>142344425which stage is gravel?

>>142346370I mean how would he know that, he only attacked for like 900 meters and vingo looked like he was dying
>>142346370Lmao fucking delusional turd. This guy is really fucking unintelligent. He lost a fucking minute today. A fucking minute. Pogi destroyed him downhill and he beat him uphill too.
>>142346666Yes it wasn't like Joux Plane where he paced himself. He looked gassed at the top
>>142346666Delusional cunt who thought he was better than Pogi but then he started competing in other events like Pogi and now he's out of gas after three fucking stages.
