And now the /cyc/ Awards Banquet continues with /WORLD TOUR WINE/ !!I started /wtw/ in January as a lark and honestly had no idea I would explore so many interesting and wonderful wines from places I would never think to drink otherwise. It really was an eye-opening experience for me. I do hope that some of you enjoyed the series. I'm going to highlight some of my favorite wines of the year, but first some figures.>Total number of editions of /wtw/67># of different typesBeer: 17Orange: 1Rose: 2Sparkling: 4White: 17Red: 25>VarietalsTotal different varietals: 48Most common red: Pinot Noir (5)Most common white: Chardonnay (4)Most common beer: Pilsner (3)>ExtremesOldest wine: 2006 Elio Grasso BaroloYoungest wine: 2024 Gancedo GodelloCheapest wine: $12 Famille Perrin La Vielle Ferme RougeMost expensive wine: $275 Krug Grand Cuvee 172eme Edition
>>151475796Before I present the highly anticipated WINE OF THE YEAR, we will review a few wines that I thought were special in one way or another.>Baudry Chinon Croix Boissee 2021 (Cabernet Franc, Loire Valley $58, TdF Stage 9)Interestingly there is maybe no wine on the list that affected me more than this one. I was a little lukewarm on my initial review, but this bottle seemed to resonate with me the more I thought about it. It was so elegant, so transparent, such a beautiful expression of terroir. I have actually become a Baudry fanatic since this bottle. I highly recommend his wines - this bottle is his top cuvee but he has interesting cab francs at all prices.>Terrevive Bergianti Rosato Brut NV (Lambrusco, Emilia-Romagna, Giro Stage 12, $26)I've never had a Lambrusco that was so wild, so interesting, so ever-changing in the glass. Crazy good. I had always thought of Lambrusco as sort of being a cheap bistro wine, but this was truly great.>Mas de Boislauzon Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Tintot 2015 (Chateauneuf-du-Pape, $88, Paris-Nice Stage 6)This was one of the most intense, most no-holds-barred wines I had this year. Just crazy complex, rich, deep, profound. At 10-years-old it was at least 10-15 years too young. I ended up buying a few more 2015 and 2016 to stash in the cellar.>Cisteller Malvasia de Stiges 2022 (Malvasia, Barcelona, Volta Catalunya Stage 4, $42)A sneakily profound white. If this were made in France, it would be $100+/bottle. Complex, evolving, balanced. Beautiful texture and minerality.
>>151475844And now, the WINE OF THE YEAR!!I did score each wine on a scale out of 100, but kept these private since normally I don't put much stock in points or rankings. Everyone's taste is different. But whatever, this is an awards banquet. Out of my 67 editions, four wines achieved a score of 95 points. Each of these were profound, complex, wonderful wines. But only a single wine achieved a score of 96 points .Dominio del Aguila Albillo Vinas Viejas 2020 (Ribera del Duero, $170, Vuelta Stage 19)I fell in love with my first sniff. The nose is reductive, with honey, gunflint, perfumed white flower, ripe sweet lemon with a beautiful bracing of vanilla/oak. The palate is vibrant, with candied lemon peel, wonderful white stone minerality, and roiling acidity. The finish is long. The wine is complex and profound. This wine is stunning. Stunning.
>>151475898>$170
>>151476045It was a banger. Would I ever suggest someone who is not into wine buying it? Never. Just like someone who needs a beater bike for commuting doesn't need a Colnago.
>>151476476I bet the dentists of the wine worlds are annoying.
>>151476645good thing the alcohol is killing them
>>151476645I'm in some tasting groups and go to wine dinners. I am one of the poorer people there. So many people just cracking open multiple $1k+ bottles on a weekday on the regular. Thankfully they tend to be generous so we're all drinking that stuff together but it truly is humbling. The fact that they share it with everyone makes it less annoying lol.
>>151475898What was best price to quality bottle?
>>151477006The Lambrusco mentioned, Chave Offerus ($35), and Gancedo Capricho Godello ($27) were the cheapest 90+ point wines I scored.

>with a maximum of 30 riders possible on new team and 44 under contract at Lotto and Intermarche-Wanty, it means at least 14 riders will be forced to look elsewhere.>Hansen says those teams did not actual inform those riders that they are to be cut.>“I’ve had a call with the UCI and both teams together, and I’ve requested a clear list of the 30 riders who will remain, as well as the 14 who won’t. On that note, I do want to thank the UCI for this.">according to Hansen, in some cases riders were reassured they were safe when this wasn’t actually the case. It has now fallen on him to break the bad news to the riders, which appears bizarre.>“I asked the team’s rider representative to post a message in the team’s WhatsApp group, asking riders to contact me individually if they wanted to know where they stood,” he said. “I will not share the list publicly. What truly upset me is how many riders were uncertain about their future. Even more disappointing was having to tell some of them that they don’t have a contract for next year, especially when they had been told otherwise. In some cases, even their agents believed they were secure because that’s what the teams had communicated.”>“The CPA should not be the one delivering this kind of news, and not in October. It was heartbreaking for me personally,” he said. “This experience makes it clear that we need to work closely with the UCI to create a stronger protocol, one that truly protects riders in these situations. At the moment, teams simply inform the UCI that their riders are ‘okay.’ But in reality, there are more than five riders without a contract for next season, and some only found out when I told them directly.”imagine finding out from Hansen out of all people, that you're actually out of job.

Oui oui bonjour everyone and welcome to the reveal of the 2026 Tour de le france route. We've heard your le feedback, so next year we will have le 19 sprinter stages. Our two mountain stages will be held on week days (tuesday and wednesday), because july is for le summer vacatión only! hahaOf course we are all looking forward to le grand depart in Barcelona, and we have already decided to cut the stage short of the last 60 km due to protesters. Security will be tight in france, and I will personally run you over with my skoda if you try anything.Now of course le FIFA 2026 World cup in north america will be held too, with le final being on the 19th of july. Because of this we are pushing le stage start until the evening so you have to choose to watch us or them.To try something different, the slovenian anthem will be performed by an actual live band in paris this time. Very exciting. Thank you all for coming, we hope to see you next summer. Viva le france!

Try closing your eyes and imagine Jonas Vingegaard in an Uno-X jersey.It may be a difficult image to conjure up, but it is nevertheless a possibility after the Norwegian cycling team secured promotion to the World Tour. At least that is what NRK's cycling expert Sondre Sørtveit thinks.- Now even top riders like Jonas Vingegaard are becoming relevant, Thor Hushovd tells the Norwegian media.With the promotion, Uno-X is assured a place in the finest cycling company for the next three years – and thus also the biggest races on the calendar. This is especially the reason why the Norwegian expert sees opportunities to lure Danish stars to the team.- Danish stars want to go here, says HushovdThe Danish riders also fit well into the team's concept, which is based on the fact that the team only consists of Norwegian and Danish riders. And it is a principle that they stick to despite the promotion, emphasizes Uno-X boss and former world champion Thor Hushovd.- Now the big Danish stars – and I mean big stars – want to go here, says Hushovd to NRK without specifying who he is referring to.Big Danish names like Magnus Cort and Andreas Kron are already riding around in the red-yellow jersey, and now even more could be on their way to Norwegian success, says the team boss.
>>151529790The high ambitions in Norway do not make TV 2 Sports cycling expert Emil Axelgaard jump on the bandwagon. He thinks it is logical to look towards Danish riders, who are generally more successful than the Norwegians.But he can't imagine a Vingegaard replacement right now.- The Vingegaard dream doesn't seem realistic in the short term. He has a contract until 2028, and although it has become more common to terminate contracts early, I don't see that it is relevant at all.- I could easily see Vingegaard being relevant in 2029, but by then he is an older man of 32 years - in modern cycling - and he has probably peaked here.Neither Mads Pedersen, who has signed a lifetime contract with Lidl-Trek, nor Mattias Skjelmose, who has a good relationship with Kim Andersen, sees Emil Axelgaard as a current possibility.Instead, he points to two others:- When he (Thor Hushovd, ed.) talks about top Danish riders having approached him, it could rather be former Danish stars like Kasper Asgreen and Michael Valgren.- They could also be relevant after 2026, but the time when they deliver many top results is probably over, concludes Axelgaard.

>It was quite remarkable. Pogacar had by virtue of Vingegaard's bad days ended up in the favorable position that he could only defend himself. It is not in the Slovenian's playful and aggressive nature to ride defensively, but the fear of his Danish rival was so great that it was what he did after the first 13 stages.
>This is what makes Vingegaard's feelings must have been mixed. Sure, objectively speaking, he was far from victory, but throughout the second half of the race, he had proven that he had closed the big gap that was up to Pogacar in 2024, where he had received solid Slovenian beatings in a poorly prepared version. When Wout van Aert in Paris finally succeeded in revealing what most people had sensed, namely that Visma's strategy of attrition had worn Pogacar down to the socks, Vingegaard could get on the plane home from Paris with a feeling that it is not impossible to get the shovel under the Slovenian superhuman. He can still be made tired, and we can only guess what would have happened if the Tour had lasted four weeks. That would hardly have been in Pogacar's favour.we nearly cracked him Jonasbros. just need to ride even harder in week 1 next year
>>151534498>When Wout van Aert in Paris finally succeeded in revealing what most people had sensed, namely that Visma's strategy of attrition had worn Pogacar down to the socksor maybe pogi realized that throwing everything away for one more tdf stage win was not worth it, on that insanse finish course in the wet with leaves on the road etc.. the delusions

>>151546184>étape Du tourDon't be a coward and do it
>This is the battle of the year in the Vosges. It is generally more Pogacar than Vingegaard terrain because the climbs are short. It ends in Le Markstein, where Pogacar rose by winning stage 20 in 2023, but it is as rumoured with another final with the Col du Haag just before the finish. At first glance, the stage looks tougher than it was rumoured, and Vingegaard is hardly sorry about that. It may well be that he can't win this stage, but the goal is to tire Pogacar, says Axelgaard.he just says this for every stage. Jonas won't win but they can tire out Pogacar. At some stage Jonas has to win Emil
>It is a bit shorter than the rumor, but is as expected a very hilly case. It's an easier climb than was rumoured, but it's a time trial that is not without similarities to stage 16 in 2023, where Vingegaard crushed Pogacar. In general, it is a clear advantage for Vingegaard that the time trial is a hilly time trial in week 3 than a flat time trial in week 1, says Axelgaard.we got him. BIG win for Jonas
>>151546214Hard to get a ticket I'd say. Probably prefer to just go to the Alps and do my own rides.

>>151546698yes I think that was the point-of-failure of the tickr aswell, the connection pins started to rust. > how do you replace the battery with this design?very easy, just remove the white gummii and then rotate the plastik cover 90deg. a shame that they don't sell it anymore, might get another one just in case

>An analysis you have often heard from cycling experts is that Vingegaard's weapon is that he recovers well and is therefore best in the last part of a Grand Tour. They also buy it in the Visma camp, and therefore Jacco Verhaeren, head of coaching at Visma, believes that the tough third week of 2026 favors Vingegaard.>"Yes, it definitely does. We know that he has good stamina and to keep his focus until the very end. It's definitely something we're looking forward to," Jacco Verhaeren told TV 2 Sport.

>>151560975good for her
>>151566735Vuelta is off the table, WC is too close to it, and in 2026 and 2027 has parcours which favour him. Giro has Vingegaard next year, so he has to put in more effort to win it. Also prevents him from doing a full spring Classics season.
>>151567133surely this is not a serious conversation. Tadej Pogacar is doing the bloody tdf
>>151567133if Jonas does not do TDF then Pogi could do TDF at 90% kinda like Giro last yearno one is even CLOSE to 90% Pogi, besides Jonas

>There is no doubt in his mind that Pogačar is the best rider who ever lived, Michael Woods told Cycling Weekly last week.>Comparing the landscape in which the two riders have raced makes the comparison even more stark, multiple Grand Tour stage winner Woods, who at 39 is retiring from Israel-Premier Tech at the end of this season, explained.>"Merckx was competing when there were only four billion people on the planet," he said. "And only four countries were good at it… and there were guys he was racing against who were still working.>These days, that figure of four billion has grown – slightly alarmingly in such as short period of time – to a shade over eight billion.>"The fact that Pogačar's as good as he is with this level of depth, with this pool of talent that's being drawn from, it's vastly superior, vastly superior," the Canadian surmised.>"It becomes not as fun when you have less of an opposition, so I certainly believe. So I don't foresee Pogačar racing into his late-30s. But, you never know. Like, he doesn't need to. He can stop tomorrow. And in my mind, he's the greatest cyclist that's ever lived.">"You even saw it with [Peter] Sagan," Woods added. "Sagan just got bored. You could tell he was just doing it as a job. And when you're an athlete like Pogačar and Sagan… these guys want to be pushing the limits and testing themselves."
