I know it's a different blue, but depending on weather sometimes the first impression is mixed

MSR is as close one day races get to fishing. The waiting is integral to the experience.

tldr: not yet

The Italian spring classic bike race ASMR

It’s nuts. In last year’s race Pogačar was allowed off the front to try and form a breakaway like he was some third tier non-threat :D

Kinda agreeing that mvdp will want to do something on the Cipressa

change shorts hopefully

when will simmons have a puncture

Bennett puncture

I blame amey

Geoffrey Soupe for a starter
Taco van der Hoorn to follow
Jelley Wallays for pudding

I'm quite into Wout's helmet, might put Steve on mine.

Rowe lives for this.

I'm enjoying Brian's pronunciation of Po-Geo.

Always forget how tense this is

Caleb Ewen still right up there

Is Rob Hatch trying to out-hyperbolise himself?

‘The most adrenaline filled...’
‘The most high octane...’

His over-pronunciation and his cliches along with Brian Smith’s general tone make me want to turn off.

Need some feedback on 'Tim Cockpit'

I didn't really watch any pro cycling last year, the reduced calendar and fuck-aboutery with every team changing name put me off so just getting in to it now. That's just a long lead up to say the Bardiani kit is brilliant, such an awful colour combination, their team car looks like a Honda Civic owned by a 21 year old from Milton Keynes.

I don't think I've cheered someone to keep moving so much

Marvellous!

Sagan 4th!

So fucking good.
I hit 110bpm there at the end ha.
