Pro-cycling thread

finally got round to watching the movistar netflix doc the other night. pablo lastras is a right hard arse. also lol at superman lopez calling them a bunch of idiots... right before joining them this year

superman lopez

Also crashing at the start of the tour last year racing against the rest of the peloton easing off due to the conditions

That was funny. Astana got such a righteous bollocking for that dick move. Almost Movistaresque in its WTFedness.

It's so so awkward.

The time Quintana wins a stage and they all pretend to celebrate with champagne still haunts me.

Just the right amount of crash too - embarrassing, but no lasting damage

Movistaresque

very!

Jumbo-Visma announce a contract extension for Wout Van Aert until the end of 2024.

I suspect the Ineos story was a red herring by his agent to get the best deal for his client.

Reckon he's gonna be on 3m/yr.

Not bad for a CX rider

I lolled

You don't think it trivialises the difficult realities of people working in low-wage service sector jobs?

Well I am now, but it didn't srtike me as the purpose of the video

Don't worry, I was just poking Snoops in the ribs.

Oh, I thought you’d made a good point. For once.

Valverde to retire at the end of the season. About time.

He's been pretty good value for a number of members of this thread.

I guess we can rely on alaphillipe following a similar trajectory at least.

Marc Soler "halp me pleez"

Lol. He can’t even play a team role in a publicity photo.

i like how soler and the other guy at the back (cortina?) make a perfect composite of geraint thomas when smushed together

Facemash

no way she is getting everyone in the shot

mate G's hair is a pile of shit compared to that ^

lots of movistar content on this page. cursed page imo

G

oh is he your best mate now is he? have a word with yourself

Maybe she’s not taking a pic. They’ve all crowded round to laugh at the Movistar documentary.

I also suspect this was the first of about 60 attempts where Valverde managed to keep his hands to himself.

makes sense
