>>152113586Thats what makes Lance such a conundrum. A greedy narcissist, but he still all-in with cycling of all things.
I don't like this new design for leader jersey
>>152120859from what I saw in his doc, he's a competition junkie, not really a full "bike guy"he was in triathlon ffs, it's just that he was really good with bikes
>>152129086I remember in his 30 for 30 he basically said you have to be a weirdo to go into professional cycling as american.
>>152120859I don't think it's that surprisingcycling turned out to be what he was good at and would have given him that high of success and self-validationyou don't get that from flipping burgers, even if it earns you more money>>152129086actually I think he started out with swimming, then turned to triathlon, and then finally turned to cycling(he wasn't that good at swimming and triathlon wasn't Olympic)
Lance was the original Remco. Beating adults when he was a kid. Came along and casually wins a world championship in his early 20s. Great time trialist. Losing causes unbearable anger.

In his podcast Lang Distance, Mads Pedersen criticizes cyclists who choose to accept significant amounts of money to race around the world without the slightest sporting value.- It's so terrible to watch. None of the riders even try to make it look like they're racing, says Mads Pedersen.One of the cycling races that falls under the category of show races is the Saitama Criterium, which Jonas Vingegaard 'won' recently. It's called a show race because the outcome is agreed upon in advance, and many of the riders who start are paid for it.Mads Pedersen's criticism of Jonas Vingegaard and the other stars who fake a cycling race for a fee was answered in Ekstra Bladet.- It's clear that it's probably not the toughest cycling race over there. But there is still a lot of racing going on, and it's not always easy, says Jonas Vingegaard, explaining that he chose to participate in the show race because it was an opportunity for a family vacation.

>>152132265He was sued right? Wonder if that's still on when the org that sued him has been reorganized into a new org. Hope somebody sign him, but they is waay to many riders without contracts right now compared to the contracts available.

>>152169892>Crystal meth is available for retail purchase and use in every country of eastern and southern Africa and is being manufactured in these regions in rapidly increasing volumes for both domestic consumption and for transit into international supply chains. Today, meth is an illicit substance used in a growing number of African communities. In many places, it has displaced cannabis, the traditional standard-bearer for African drug markets, as well as heroin and cocaine.https://globalinitiative.net/analysis/meth-africa/

>Faced with this financial hemorrhage, the main shareholder injected €10 million between November 2024 and December 2025. Earlier in the year, in June, Campagnolo had already secured €8.5 million in financing from Cherry Bank, intended in particular to support the launch of its new 13-speed groupset. But these financial efforts are clearly insufficient to guarantee the company's long-term viability in its current form.>In a somber statement, management asserts that there is no alternative to this plan and warns of dramatic consequences for the company and the city of Vicenza if the measures are not implemented. The company emphasized that the 40% reduction in labor costs would allow for continued operations at the Vicenza site, albeit on a reduced scale. The industrial plan that underpins these layoffs was approved by the board of directors on November 21, 2025.>The irony of the situation is clear to everyone: these announcements come just months after the launch of the Super Record 13 groupset, one of the most innovative products ever developed by Campagnolo. This 13-speed drivetrain was meant to mark the brand's technological renewal and reignite market interest. But the unfavorable economic climate has dashed those hopes.F
>>152170061They kinda deserved it. They coasted off a +50 year old reputation, only being relevant because boomers are nostalgic. Now the boomers are dead or aged out and they are like 15 years too late to save things.
>>152170084they went the wrong way with super fancy top of the range groupsets. the market is so small for that product and most of the potential buyers will just buy DA di2 anyway. they should have gone with cheap mass produced groupset and tried to get deals done to supply fully built bikes with these groupsets. how many bikes come with campy? barely any.

>“I’ve always said I wanted to do something with numbers – probably something with banking. I have always been good with numbers," Jonas Vingegaard said in a new interview to TV MIDTVEST.>Before the bicycle career took off, Jonas Vingegaard went to the business high school in Thisted, where it was also very much numbers and economics that characterized everyday life.>- But as I grew up and got my own house, I have realized that I like craftsmanship more than I actually thought, says Jonas Vingegaard.>Do you want to be a tradesman when your cycling career ends?>- It could easily be. Time will tell. I am very fascinated by carpentry.
>>152168809It's a stimulant. It's not that long ago that amphetamines used to be available in pharmacies, first without prescription and then with prescription you could easily get. And if you fake some ADHD symptoms even today.
>>152170061>>152170084>>152170123It's all their own fault. It's impossible to support the R&D effort required to operate a groupset manufacturer with just top end parts. They needed 105 and Ultegra level groupsets with electronics ages ago. And they needed to make Ekar electronic. And finally they needed big OEM contracts. They engineered everything without thinking about costs and then couldn't make cheaper electronic groupsets. When the others engineered a cheap mass market groupset that could then be lightened for DA/Red level.

>>152168809It induces strong euphoria and will make you feel like you're performing better, even if you aren't. Nazis already knew this, but many dope fiends still fall for it today.Regardless, some studies seem to suggest there's some actual improvement, even if it's not too much, it could still make all the difference between winning and losing.Also, caffeine has somewhat similar effects and seems to be widely used, probably not entirely without reason.

neat! though any mywhoosh race i've ever done, it's always just hanging on in the group until you get dropped; very little strategy involved as far as i can tell

>>152256446Because burgers suck?

>I will also soon begin my series of transfer analyses for the coming season, where there will be an analysis of each of the 18 WorldTour teams, followed by analyses of my expectations for each of the 18 teams in 2026 - i.e. 36 analyses in total. I don't know when the first transfer analysis will come, but it will be one of the next days as a kind of advent calendar leading up to Christmas. In addition, as I said, there will be an analysis of the Giro route later this week.
>>152257254gotta say that Aosta and Dolomites stages are nice
Reeeeeeeeemmmmmmmcccccoooooooooooooo
Mads has GOT to do this Giroeasy clean 3-4 stages again
Giro podium1. Jonas2. Del Toro3. Roglicputting the house on it
>Pila
So, let's start, I like this one
>>152257453Roglic is never podiuming a 3 week stage race ever again
I don't know if this is enough to not end in a sprint
>>152258087He's winning the La Vuelta ciclista
Same for this one, sprinters will be dropped on the climb?
>>152258294>thedeathofjakobsen.jpg
>>152258337Should he even be Pikniks first sprinter anymore?
>>152258411Who fucking knows with the cult.They do almost everything wrong.
>>152258427Its going to be interesting to hear all the horror stories when the riders that left them retire.
So who gets the first maglia rosa? Has to be a sprinter right?
Let's go with the first big one
>>152256834
This one is really flat and also on sunday, I guess they wante the big day on the big city
Also TT is very flat
And this one is super flat too, but they that finish is juicy
130 km over 4k, make it 200 km!
>>152260082this is going to be a snooze fest sadly
how often do my birts wash their cycling shorts? id rather not waste chamois cream so im letting it marinate for a couple weeks between washes. only downside is the brown spot forming
>>152257453In the end none of them will even do the Giro and the biggest name on the startlist will be like Almeida
>>152263572I hope this is some kind of sick joke. Bibs need to be washed after every use. Although, this boomer I work with says he never washes his bibs and just takes them off and leaves them in the garage. The thought of putting on a chamois that has been stewing after a ride is abhorrent to me.>>152259477Mads salivating at this.>>152257676Good stage. Built for DENZ.I find it harder to predict what mountain stages will be good these days. There was som great racing (IMO) in the mountains this past Giro. Will the "easier" stages be better? Yates took the lead on Stage 20, hard to beat that.
Easy climb, this one ends in a sprint
Finally a Ca' del Poggio that makes the difference
People expected more from this one, very Vuelta style stage, was probably influenced by the requests of the Swiss
Ok this one will not end in a sprint
This is a mistery, could be great or end in a slurpfest
>>152086366When do the serious CXers start, so I can muster up the energy to start watching through Tiz?
>>152269450I predict a sprint (à trois)
Final mountain stage

>>152270112Yes, question marks all around
>>152270147>BULBUL Bulbullmao wtf. others with dns/dnf are just faulty entries, looks like. but this one is mighty suspicious
>>152270147Why are indians so bad at sport outside of cricket?
This look like a breakaway stage or at least brakaway vs peloton
>>152270346are they even good at cricket? not for their population and obsession with the sport they're not
Welcome to Giro di Spagna
Rampas inhumanas
Very breakaway stage
Classic finish in Roma
sick of rain desu
The big oneAnd we're done
>>152272213those max gradients. are they for real?
>But a team change is not at all on the Dane's radar. He can't see himself running for another team.>- No, I can't. First of all, I have... I can't even remember how many years I have left... But no matter what, I've been driving here so many years that I can't see myself anywhere else, the answer goes.Uno-X status: Denied
>>152272542About Giau no, could be some error, made profiles fast because I already know Giro will change something so I will review them in the future
>>152270147>Bulnul BulbulYeah right.
where are the christmas sales?
>>152272628Did Uno X even believe it
>>152280431Free marketing to generate fake hype
>>152280431Journos just twisted their words. All they said was it is now an option to sign the top riders because they are a world tour team.
Doesn't regret interview: - No problemJonas Vingegaard can easily live with an interview with his wife creating a stir around him in a big race - as long as it doesn't affect the team's internal chemistryThe agenda for this year's Tour de France was largely set by Vingegaard. At the beginning of the race, however, not so much Jonas as his wife Trine.Because in an interview with Politiken, she expressed that her husband did not get the necessary support to become the best version of himself.He does not need to be in training camp isolated on a mountaintop all the time - he just as much needs to recharge his batteries at home in the lap of his family and gain new energy by being with Trine and the children. Big fussThe interview suddenly made Jonas Vingegaard the most sought-after rider in the Tour - also to a greater extent than he is used to, after all.All journalists wanted to hear his explanation, and it created a lot of fuss for Vingegaard, who in those days had enough to do in terms of sports to keep up with Tadej Pogacar.Still, he doesn't regret that the interview was published. - It wasn't the best time. But I'm good at putting things on the shelf and not thinking too much about them. - As long as I know that it's not something that affects us internally on the team, I can put it on the shelf, and that's no problem for me at all, Jonas Vingegaard explains to Ekstra Bladet.
>>152280750Dudes a slave to his wife but it's a life he chose.
>>152280871I'm fairly sure he said the same thing in actual summer, not sure why Ekstrabladet is still asking him questions about it like half a year later. Also Trine was completely right as it turned out.
>>152280750
Did we ever get to see the new kitchen though?
https://www.procyclingstats.com/info/working-at-procyclingstatsthey were hiring. missed the boat on that one

AND its literally in bumfuck nowhere, i dont know seems like a bad deal 2bhbut hey shoutout to them for actually moving back to denmark and (presumably) paying taxes here, instead of the rest of the frauds living in Monaco
>>152281053was for>>152281012
>>1522810532 mil sounds about rightBrand new with indoor pool and loads of land and lakeside access it all adds up
>>152281280i don't think it's brand new, im actually sure it isnt, its gotta the a big plot of land its sitting on
>>152281280But it lacks in anti-air defense
>>152281323our airports literally shut down over toy drones and our goverment has no idea whats going on so we'd stand no chance
>>152281053The kitchen was for the house in annecy
who even needs four ovens
>>152281409what sort of question is that
>>152281280looks like the evil lair of some WEF faggot
>>152281280That poor janny that has to take care of the lawn. Looks like a lot of work.
>>152281673you mean getting paid good money to work a garden
>>152281280I'd live there
>>152281981that'll be 13 million francs
>>152281280yeah yeah very nice but does the doorbell work?
>>152281280Reminds me of runners having "elevation training" on a small Spanish island, with only one way of getting to it. So that anyone wishing to visit it, such as a WADA agent, will be noticed well in advance. Giving enough time to destroy evidence.
>>152282449
What kind of house does Pog have? A cool one I hope.
look at these WADA clowns wasting all their money. 3.5 million for their minions going knocking on doorbells all over the world.
>>152282997He seems to stay in Monaco all year round. His apartment is not even that nice.
>>152282997He lives in a tiny apartment in Monaco.When he is in Slovenija he stays at his patents place. No clue what he does with all his money besides buying a Porsche.
the doorbellmen are paid welldo they have doorbellwomen? maybe Jonas was afraid to show his willy to the female who rang the doorbell
>>152283104forgot to include there is 178 employeesso average salary is 101 grand
>>1522814093 of them are medical refrigerators in disguise
>>152283019>>152283092So Uska is just sitting in a smol appartement with nothing to do all season?
>>152283092Didn't he move to a bigger apartment some time ago?
>>152283092saving the money until his retirement would be a smart thing to do. they don't have much free time now anyway
>>152283177No better investment than buying real estate.
>>152283177The most expensive house in Slovenia costs one month's wages
>>152283201if you know for sure where you want to live afterward
>>152283209What? You just rent it out and sell it when you need cash.
