Pro-cycling thread

Any intel on whether there’s likely to be a reduced price offer on Eurosport or GCN ahead of the road season starting?

I missed the British Cycling offer and no Black Friday offer on Eurosport this (last) year it seems.

My £20 sub started on the 5th March 21, so expect something around then this year?

Cofidis De Rosas are nice classic looking carbon bikes.
Maybe they will use other models later but the Merak is a great bike.

Oh Nico

Although reports are that they will support his hour record with coaching and equipment. So not riding in the road squad, but seems like he will compete as a Grenadier.

The most ripped cyclist?

There's something unreal about that beard.

Seems legit, but does it work on chest hair?

Broken femur for Bernal according to Jose Been:

She’s just reporting a rumour, let’s see if it’s confirmed by the team.

That's really a shame if it's true.
From the way Steve Cummings on Twitter is trying to track down who took various pics of him early in his career I think it's likely an autobiography is being written.

It sounds even worse from this:
