>>150718660btw vuelta ends tomorrow so hopefully the fish has a stinker tt
I don't want a gravel bike but if I did I would buy thisthat's a nice bike
>Buenos dias my fellow protestors. To hell with Israel am I right haha, Shoot, I forgot my palestine flag at home, can I borrow one?>Thanks. Anyways, what's the plan today?
>>150718816You should, it's fun
>>150718832don't have any gravel to ride on.
that climb looked really remarkable today, the desolate landscape without crowds. it was like watching the human condition part I: no greater love
>>150718924Literally a metaphor for the state of cycling, and the racing reflected that
Joke grand tour
>>150718924my gf was joking that photographers had set the fire to get good shots
>>150719152Perfect for vingegaard and Pidcock, so I approve.
Left wing terrorism is getting out of hand
>>150718924it was a bit reminiscent of Etna stage in Giro
>>150719152Jonas made the call
>>150719272someone post the phone picture, i can't find it right now
>>150719362
GT on a circuit lap with entry tickets soonThanks Spain good job
>>150719425That's far too dangerous. It will have to be on zwift.
>>150719152Podium secured
>>150719152I'm angry.
>>150719489I think you'll soon be able to cross out the Madrid on that
>>150719720Posters added context: Madrid, the capital city of Spain, is home to a large population of radical left-wingers even if they are not that notable in relative terms. If the race gets to Madrid, rest assured there will be some ruckus coming from the spectators.
>>150719745always a quality posting
>>150719152i honestly dont care about this race anymore, im so fucking done with itnot gonna watch the rest, not gonna care who wins or loses
>>150719979See you tomorrow
going to watch todays stage nowsurely there was a big Jonas attack followed by a diesel response from almeida
>>150719995ney im working late tomorrow so wont watch the rest of this DOGSHITactually im only gonna turn in to Mads getting green in Madrid, the rest i dont care about and the GC is an even bigger * than 2020 Giro
Went for a jog, can't call that a run probably 4km at 5/km. A lot easier than anticipated. I thought I'd have tight chest, sore hips, tight calf, tight hip flexor and general exhaustion. Watch died half way through though which is frustrating. I'll probably get a fire runner or fenix instead of this chink slop. I shall become a runner now. Cagies and general cycling burnout have caught up with me. Running was more fun, more natural ad I believe it will be more transferable to other activities in planning.>>150719999Get a beer, it was a cracker. One of the best this year imo. Attack after attack.
>TDF 2026 startlol sure
>most important stage of an entire GTTOP FUCKING KEEEEEEEEEEK
>>150719152It's Vallaover
>>150720155Hope that /cyc/ will stop glazing this subpar grand tour now
>>150720213I kneel only to le giro and el tour now
12.2 km of ITT must be the lowest amount in a grand tour since a long time ago
>>150720237The one in the TdF was 10.9 but it was uphill
>>150720266There was another ITT in Caen
this has to be some sort of false flag shit from russia or something
Realistically what can Pidcock do tomorrow?
>>150720450You're starting to get it Bert.
>>150720451I think he can limit his losses and stay in third. He's lucky that Hindley's also a poor time trialist
>12.2kmlmaoThis Vuelta should be abandoned
what if jonas is so good at sucking wheel that when he's alone in the TT he is automatically seeking a wheel to suck, and the nearest wheel to suck is the guy infront of him so he is magnetically pulled forward so he can latch on to the nearest wheel in front of himmaybe that's why he is good at TT, at least thats my theory
>>150720450Stfu
The saviour of cycling is back >At the World Championships, Pogacar won't just be defending his road title; he's also not without ambition in the time trial. "Do I really want to challenge Remco? Of course, that's the goal," he says with a wink. >"I want to give him and the other strong specialists a run for their money. The course should suit me, although I'll need a very good day. I've always been a fan of the discipline and have been on my time trial bike more than usual this time. I'm going there to prove myself the best that day," he concludes aggressively.
Louis Meintjes is in this Vueltawtf is he doingat least get in one breakhate that guy
>>150720546>he concludes aggressivelyno timid bullshit like you get from Jonas
>>150720563of course, look forward to see Finn Fisher-Black, Filippo Ganna, Jack Haig, Harold Martin Lopez or Jan Hirt tomorrow as well
ok it was pretty cool but in the end things are very much the samewhat kind of nutrition and rounder wheels is pidcock on?if there are no long climbs left he could challenge 2nd place specially since the 12km TT news>>150720077>runningjesus christ wtf that's horrible
the weather is getting colder, time to prepare for indoor training. are there any good zwift alternatives yet? has zwift made any improvements, or is it just same old. last winter i spent mostly on mywhoosh, but there weren't really enough people on it to really race
>>150720855>are there any good zwift alternatives yet?yes, winter gearhonestly tho, I really like cycling in winter as long as it doesn't rain too much
>>150720865Is this post meant to be a joke?
yes well, if i lived in portugal i'd also ride all winter long. though i'm probably more blocked by the lack of daylight than the cold
if i lived in belgium i'd fucking move
>>150720865>just ride in mud, shit, rain, snow and -10 degrees bro
>>150720924t. Bendt Hermansen, Sønder Magleby

Question for eggsperts. My Trek Marlin 8 2022 got stolen from the workshop. The workshop guy is offering me as compensation a brand new Marlin 7 Gen 3 2024 they have. It's 15kg heavy because dropper post and other things, and I'd have to pay over 400 Usd additional because new bike/pricier than the Marlin 8 '22. The Marlin was only 13.2 kg heavy. I never do trail but only asphalt and dirt roads (lots of climbing including many rampas)The other option is they get me a 2nd hand Marlin 8 as the one I had, but that would took more time and be harder to do. What do? Should I accept the Marlin 7 2024? The weight concerns me a lot but I'm not eggspert on this.
>>150724111The weight doesn't matter much, you can ask them to remove the droper .I don't think I'd accept paying extra because they got your bike stolen though
>>150718889Unlucky
don't forget in 2022 covi won the giro queen stage at 168 km and 4718 vertical meters
>>150724157This, no additional cost, it was their responsibility.Imagine using a bike from a friend and get it stolen then offer him your older model and have the balls to still ask money. Fucking kek
>>150720546>challenge memcothe only one challenging memco is himself on that uphill tt, he'll be as good as he was in tdf
>>150720077>i will become a runner nowCome to the other side brother bong. Salvation awaits you
>>150718660new profile
>>1507200775'/km isn't jog lmao, everything faster 6' 30''/km is a run
>>150721369A gentle reminder that unless these two can step it up (which at this point requires two DNF from the guys in front) it will be the first time in history that the Vuelta has no Spaniards in the top 10.
i'm hearing that vingegaard is going to go ALL-IN MAX EFFORT to try and win the stage today!
>>150724749nice joke
>>150718816the canyon inflite cf sl is cheaper lighter and roadier than this
>>150724769
can we already consider this year's Vuelta as an * edition?
>>150724772ofc, the only stage that could actually make differences in gc was shortened so much that even mads can gain a top 3 time
>>150724772after this TT decision yes, they handed Vingegard the victory
>>150719152Another Vuelta with an Obelix

>>1507248222023 TDF was asterisked, pogacar came into that off his LBL injury
Imagine how much better place the world would be if Pinot had won the tdf
>>150718660so who wins the TT? I would have said almeida earlier, but now I think it's ganna or peds
>>150724930>>150724932put that on something then
>>150724951
>>150724953If Ganna can't win this then what is the point of him

>>150724983this one we can all get behind at least as nature lovers
What the fuck are those odds? Fishboy @30.0? Küng @20.0. Bookmakers have never watched a single stage in theyre live.
>>150724595Looking forward to another today. Probably same route but a bit slower, like 6/km just the grease the groove and strengthen the muscles. It is so much fun. Will buy clothing later this money curtesy of the government. I have a nice 8km route I liked when I last ran, a good route to just sit at 5/km with a few hills and it's mostly trail.>>150724715It didn't feel difficult, I don't doubt heart rate was high because I'm unfit but I cut it short so I didn't create a lot of muscle damage. Hardly sore today. Came back feeling high as a kite. Love running. Want to climb too but running is perfect to be a stronger hiker. It's why I'm doing it. But I'll probably enjoy running as a primary hobby over winter.
>>150725004nah, i personally use ptfe to wax my chain not for watt reason but to unironically turn the fricking frogs gay
>>150725005*their*life
>>150725006I kinda dont belive you. 8k With 5/km is a crazy pace
>>150724978Good.
>>150725013Mate Im sorry. I learned this language in school and every word is underlined in red because its not german. Cut me some slack
>>150725013lives* you native dumbfuck
>>150724968you'd think that abraham's chosen riding on in the face of all the hatred and opposition would actually help the cause of the nation of israel for some people
>>150725029had to read this at least 3 times before realising you aren't talking about Olano
>>150725017How is that hard to believe? This was in 2022 after 2 weeks running when I wasn't in great shape particularly, I was unfit and a bit overweight like me now. I have decent natural fitness because I trained a lot on the bike as a teen and I'm naturally fit, like my dad who's over 300w ftp as a 53 year old with a year training. I'm quite broad and have a fair bit of deadweight weak muscle though because I've not been in the gym fir 6 months. I would need a month because I ride my bike maybe 20 times this year but 5min/km for 8km isn't hard. Dudes are doing 16-17 minute 5km's, now that's unreal to me. That's fucking quick.
>>150725024Life's*Dipshit
>>150724983Lmao anarchists in every spanish institute. At least first world nations have socialist/communists. Anarchists are a true plague.
>>150724968
>>150725006I recommend trail running anon. Much more divers and motivating imo. If you have hills use them. Distinct training benefits, muscular, aerobically and anaerobically to running up hill. Take downhills slow in the beginning until muscles adjust (land with on forefoot to avoid rolling ankles on downhills too-much safer). Soon you will be running in loops from where you live, which will be boring. A good motivstion to increase volume is thus to pick a new train station or bus station everytime to run to and commute back home. This was you run to new places everytime. Voila, thanks for reading my blog
>>150724891>Jonas will crackmaybe, but then others will crack thrice
>>150724895common, antisemitism knows no color and no side
>>150725179i think he meant jonas will smoke crack before the stage

>>150724968>january 2025>jonas vingegaard is flown into istanbul along with jorgenson to meet with daryl impey, sylvain adams, netanyahu and a delegation of hamas officials to discuss the validity of his vuelta win
>>150725174I bought half trail shoes for this reason instead of the slick shoes. That 8km loop is great, it's through a forest and then across fields with sheep and cows. Probably only 3-4km in tarmac. Sketchy at night but I'll get a good headlight I think, and hopefully it doesn't rain much until late this year so I can enjoy the good trail runs. I pity those living inner city who have no choice. I'm 2km from the edge of town.I'll try to get more volume than before at low pace like 6min/km or something so it's low impact, then work up to do the intervals as you say. I note when unfit the big difference is you can't redline and recover, you stay there until you stop and rest. I have little idea about cadence but I hear often to go high and take short strides. I'll get a forerunner or a fenix soon I think. Nice to have reliable live metrics. The 570 looks nice but a little 2d, fenix seems well rounded. Even has a torch, total gimmick I'd imagine.
>>150724968Spoiler alert: they have zero standing it won't even reach a judge's desk
STÜSSI goes solo
>>150725174>land with on forefoot to avoid rolling ankles on downhillshow do people NOT do this naturally anywaylike I'd chute within a few steps if I didn't
>>150725386some people dont think about it. But, its quite dangerous on rocky paths since there are no muscles which extend to stabilise the leg when you make contact with the ground, which is different to when your toes/forefoot touch the ground first.
strong 3rd place for Colin STÜSSI in Romania.

ordered a 3.5€ chink supacaz bar tape knockoff and I can't tell it apart from the original fuck
Being the starter on a TT day has got to be one of the worst humaliation rituals
>>150725713I got a supacaz bartape the last time because /sp/cyc/ recommended it and it was actually a pretty good rec. I usually leave my bartape (black) on pretty long, but the supacaz one wore out so fast I had to replace it mid-season, so it seems they have a helpful reminder built in that you don't leave it on too longi'm trying a BBB one now
well raisberg has sailed past all the palestine flags unharmed so it's safe to say that there was no reason to shorten the stage
Why tf is gunner so far back? got fucked in the mountains?
>>150725717yeah, it's actually quite nice if you ignore it's durabilityalready tested this chink knockoff and it's really nice, still have to test it in really hot days and rainy days to see how it behaves to extreme sweat and water
>>150725721what is actually the concrete explanation that shortening the stage makes it safer? is it so they can avoid certain crowded places or because they didnt have enough police?
>>150725738To avoid the protesters at the finish
Did the route change a lot? If so have they done reckon?

Chances of some idiot jumping in front of Riccitello? Are the teams able to change the maillot they race with? I don't think even 1% of the protestors could identify the team if they had a different maillot/name

>>150725787You know there are multiple Spain anons, right? Like at least 8. Also I don't think I'm wrong
>>150725926but which one is the cabeza de carera hombre?
>>150725905He should have become a staple in commentary and punditry, but I suspect it's far too boring for him and the challenge of running a team was his destiny. I'm a bit surprised about that too though, I thought he'd slither off into investment banking or another extremely lucrative industry. I guess that shows he's very humble and cares for the sport. Very classy rider, always made races exciting and won in some of the most magnificent ways. He was never imperious in his abilities like poogacar or sagan to an extent, so you never quite knew who'd take the win. That is what made him an even greater rider. He was by far, and possibly still is, my favourite rider. Everything about him was cool.
>>150725867And then died on the straight, he rode this like a full stage :skull:
>>150725926>bert thinks he's multiple people again

Also it was nice when the sport had handsome cyclists. The state of it when cyc marks grug as the most handsome cyclist currently. Current peloton is a group of dysgenic ugly freaks.
Tuscan dialect sounds very funny to me. commentator is saying perzo for perso.

Same as yesterday too easy for Torito
küngbros...
Kung +12 at T3If you ask me Ganna finished very strong, basically Ganna's T3 - T2 is 14 seconds faster than Kung's
behind ivo oliveira even
>>150726130even Oliveira beat him, kung is just utter shit
>>150726130top ganna is the master of the negative split
Ciccone should be here instead of embarrass himself in spain
top 10
de pestel first at T1. this is the man that dethrones ganna
Pogibros, our response?
>>150726154Covid
>>150726154I wonder what's better, winning 2 tdfs or stat padding in 1.1 and 1.Pro?
>>150726180Cumulative UCI points are the only win that really matters
Looks like some lads were trying to block the road there when tiberi passed, must have been animal activists
>>150726221WTF is that jersy?
J vine with the pedo moustache. I could grow one like that
Radio COPE is saying (oscar pereiro and heri frace) are saying some etarras vascos and some communist catalans with palestina flags are blaming some spanish from spain for being with spain flag there in valladolid aka fachadolid.Oscar pereriro is saying that he had been called killer and prozionist.
>>150726267Pereiro is not particularly mentally stable so take with a pinch of salt
Jay Vine getting a nice draft there, Ganna must be seething watching that
Weird having actual spaniards in cyc. I wonder where all the autistic racist spanish internet users post about cycling usually.
Listen. The IRONMAN Men's World Championships are on September 14, 2025. Did you put that into your fucking calendar? Yes? Good.
Lest we forget
Thats several DQ's in a triathlon lol
Vine -6 on Kung at T2!!
And the less popular sequel
>>150726294Might actually watch some. Issue being it's all extremely passive and literally nothing happens. Cross fit bike races however are pure gold. Need more of that. Buff high test muscly dudes crashing each other out constantly. Like nascar in cycling form.
>>150726298>>150726311KEK

I'm gonna squeak

>>150726336He should have used a powerup
>>150718660ganna is lucky if he wins this, he was shit
imagine vine's legs with vingegaard's legendary time trial cornering
Imagine getting paid 1mil a year to pedal and some other riders passes you like that lol

does Jonas lose his GC today
>>150726507>possiblyFiring someone based on rumors is a bit harsh I would bet Carboni is getting a nice payout for that.
Toad spotted
Here comes the GC (GenoCide) jersey!
Joao took the two first corners faster
>riccitello faster than gallmanlet pride worldwide
Joao 2 seconds faster at T1
Almeida going all in it seems. A lot of risks beeing taken in the corners.
Almeida took that U-turn so slow looking
Pidders insane time

Jonas can thank Palestine today
Two Italian wins in a row thats something

Jonas lost 10 seconds to almeida
>>150726631Jonas can thank ASO's incompetence more like
>>150718660cringegaard is so lucky, would have lost 30-40s on the full course
any bonus seconds for 3rd?
>>150726631After Joao thanked them in Bilbao
>>150726666no bonis for ITT
>>150726613slow is fast and just because it looks good doesn't mean it's fast but this looked to me like he slowed down before the corner too early
>>150726666>bonis in TT
> RIGGED> RIGGED> RIGGED
Can someone please explaine me why the spanish are so obcessed both Palestine.Nobody here gives a fuck, only the extreme left.
can't believe jonas is so cooked in this snoozefest race. he truly is just a tour merchant. no altitude no performance.
>>150726654GC
>>150726651>spaniard blames france for his own country's failuresClassic
>>150726709I believe that Joao will put 40s on Jonas on Bola del Mundo
Joao would be only 20 seconds behind with full TT, justice for Joao!
Jonas lucky this was a very easy vuelta. a few rampas here and there but the mountain stages were piece of piss compared to usual. hope he cracks on saturday.
thank god jonas made the phone call yesterday
>>150726750honestly, it's very surprising and disappointing. it seemed like he was the only one who could somewhat hold against Pog and now he's barely beating his domestic.
>>150726666
Just came back from running.Good I missed this crap.As expected, Fishboy lost time, but thanks to it being shortened, he still is leading.Pathetic Vuelta
jonas was cooked in the last sector. if this was double the length he would have lost 30 seconds
>>150726765he's literally given up. after this year's dauphine and tour jonas knows what's up: he can't beat pogi. it actually seems that his acceptance has taken a load off; he's more relaxed than ever.
If it was a 100km TT Jonas would be off the podium. Fine margins lads.
>>150726809still, he can be in form that allows to beat anyone else by large margin. to give up completely seems like a waste
>>150726750He became too explosive and muscular, he needs to go back to becoming a skinny climber
/CYC/ CHAMPIONSHIP 2025VUELTA A ESPANAstage 18 (itt)
>>150726823i think you're overrating him. he's not a great cyclist; he barely cracked the all-time top 100 on pcs. even if he has above average athletic ability, he simply lacks the hunger. the fact that he's skipping the world championships tells you all you need to know about him.
>>150726823eh, last Vuelta he did he also wasn't as good as in the Tour (and he won the Tour that year)I guess that's what happens when Vuelta is only your secondary objective

I see the Big 3™ are racing tomorrowWout van AertT. PogacarFlorian Lipowitzshould be a good race. Canadian monuments are comfy with the late finishing time
Maybe One Cycling won't be such a bad thing after all. Tear it all down and rebuild the sport around the fans.
>>150727200Protestor are probably paid by the Saudi to push it
>>150727200it will be a good thing if they leave the main races as they are and replace the junk with whatever their new shit is. basically giving me what I have crying about for years. a compact calendar where the top riders race each other more often and are not spread out doing mickey mouse races around the world.
/CYC/ CHAMPIONSHIP 2025 GCafterGRAN PREMIO CITTÀ DI PECCIOLI - COPPA SABATINI
>be safety moto>gets expelled from the race for unsafe behavior kek
>>150727200the problem is that they'll basically replace the classics with some "fancy" shit around saudi or road cycling on moto circuits etc. does anyone actually want to see 4 hours of "cycling" around monza? i highly doubt it. also they'll probably sell the streaming rights to some big corpo and you'll have to pay 3 subscriptions to watch all races, while now you can just watch them on eurosport
so de lie wins tomorrow?
So Fishboy loses if we get another full mountain stage? What the fuck happened to him? Good to be back home.
>>150727589Nah Almeida struggled to keep up with the others of the top five on the last climb yesterday. Jonas can just sit on his wheel or follow Hendley or Pellizzari when they attack easy win
>>150727472That would be another nail in the coffin. Not sure if the last one.
>>150727261>where the top riders race each other more oftenYou can do whatever you want with the calendar grug will never care about anything but MSR roubaix and RVV

>>150727472They can't replace the classics. Same reason LIV golf is just exhibition bullshit that nobody takes seriously.Teams and riders come and go, it's the historical races that are the sport. you can't set up your own golf league and try to replace the Mastersyou can't set up your own tennis league and try to replace Wimbledonyou can't set up your own cycling league and try to replace Paris RoubaixThe grand tours, the monuments and a select few other races are the pillars of the sport. Remove these and the sport collapses. Of course these guys know this. It's just a question of where the middle ground will be if they do set up their races. Probably just small races will become smaller or die out completely.

What a DISASTER of a week we've had in the Vuelta!! And it's almost been as much as a disaster for the /WORLD TOUR WINE/ offices!! We had some water damage to our floorboards requiring half our floors getting replaced. Due to incessant drilling and sawing, Bertina and I rode out the work at a local hotel so I missed a scheduled day of posting, but I have returned. You can even see the wood dust on my glass. But at least we have a GREAT wine!Today's wine is from the 16th stage in the far NW of Spain (Galicia), home to one of the great appellations of the country - Rias Baixas, home to Albarino. This is a delightful coastal white grape, fresh enough for summer patio drinking and serious enough for serving at a Michelin-starred restaurant.Pazo Senorans Albarino 2023 ($32)This pours a pale gold with medium body. The nose is fruity, with lime zest and green melon. There is a little lactic tang to the nose. The palate is medium bodied, a bit of oil, stone minerality leading to the fruit then a lingering, palate-tingling acidity. There is a bit of pleasing bitterness on the finish as well.I love Albarino, it is one of my favorite and most accessible whites. This is very balanced, certainly fruit forward but with minerality, acidity, and some fat to it. Very nice. We'll get caught up on /wtw/ tomorrow with another SENSATIONAL bottle for this fraudulent race!
