What the fuck is Remco talking about? He's unfamiliar with mountain top finishes?

I was riding down the Petit Ballon today as part of my holiday and they had multiple signs of "dangerous descent" and "bad road" up, and I just started laughing after 5 minutes because I'm used to the Ardennes where they don't even put up signs for lethal potholes and cracks in the road. It's really all relative

Tom Dumoulin on Tadej Pogacar's attack: “He does this purely to annoy Vingegaard”

“Is it arrogant? It does have a little bit to do with arrogance. That duel between Vingegaard and Pogacar has been going on for three years now and Pogacar can’t stand the fact that he’s been beaten for two years in a row. Now he’s finally the boss again and he finally has his legs to hurt Vingegaard again. He now thinks: now you’ll get it back.”

evening prologues aren't a good idea

"If this is my bad day then I'm happy"

Jonas Vingegaard was thankful to his teammates and felt he's still improving after stage 17

>>142838052
>"I'm glad I could still be useful to him," said Benoot. "That was also our first intention: to be there to protect Jonas if something like that happened in the final."

>"It's a good thing we were there," Van Aert added, "because Jonas had a few difficult moments, I think. That way we were able to help him."

they knew he would crack, might be full on over

why? Denmark was my favorite country to ride in. Really nice cycling lanes. Granted, I was there during the summer.

>>142837986
Yes almost always. On a really long climb where you are pushing a steady pace I might switch it out for a podcast or audio book or something

>>142838200
Pikes Peak, Mt Evans, Mt Washington, etc... There's some insane burger rampas. Problem with the Colorado ones is riding a bike over like 9k ft elevation feels terrible.

nope, only shit cyclismo here, don't come
plus we're full

New best ever 60s power despite only doing 50s reps today. 600w, repeatablity is attrocious. Subsequent efforts were around 550w which is just pathetic, 650w for first 50s effort.
I think I need to get back into squatting, it's okay at this point in training but if I can get that up to 700w for the minute within the next few months it'll be better. I find anaerobic efforts can be hard to regain but FTP based efforts are very easy to regain after no training.
Might do 25s for a few weeks instead to work on anaerobic system, 50's feels a bit too much in terms of having to repeat 6-10 in a session at the moment. I guess that's just fitness.

>>142838187
they’re easy to rent

>>142838235
Mt Evans is pretty easy, I don't think it goes above 4% the whole way up. Pikes Peak is brutal. The elevation above 4000m will make you genuinely sick if you are not used to it, but if you stay for a few weeks living in the front range at like 1600m you get used to it quick. I did them a couple years ago, I kind of want to go back now, truly stunning climbs. Rocky Mountain park is also great, as is Independence Pass near Aspen. The latter in October with all of the trees showing their colors and the first fresh snows of the season is one of my most memorable rides ever
