I like Pog a lot. He's just amazing.

A real racer.

Healy's upped his game since not being able to win Palace last year.

Be interesting to see how he goes in Liege, clearly likes the long ones!

Another win in the bag for @taogeogheganhart at the Tour of the Alps.

Showed real maturity to time his effort to perfection, over hauling Hugh Carthy with a 100 metres to go.

dreams If only pro racing was about beer drinking...

I recall Kuss downing a beer after winning a Vuelta stage (having high fived a load of fans on the final strait)?

I’m not quite there but I know what you mean, Remco’s world champs win felt a bit like that. Have to switch gear from enjoying suspense to just looking at ridiculous strength

Sporza had a professor in aerodynamics calculate how many seconds Pog gained through the help of the Amstel race director. 10-20 seconds. Professor Blocken says it was "a little scandalous"

Professor Blocken professes to be an expert in blocking the wind?

it was. the race director is an idiot.

Aggy.

HEALY WAS ROBBED

Are there any other current or retired pro cyclists with end to end burner graffiti tributes? I'd love to know.

The fact that there are no comments on today's race says it all really

The only thing that impresses me about Pog is his post-race drink selection. The fizz on a San Pell after a vo2 effort!? Not normal.

RIP Chris Baldwin, former Astana press officer. Only 52.

Old cycling magazines are hilarious. "Who's banging the most drugs this month?"

Should I tear out the Valverde article for you @amey ?

absolutely yes pls

LOL, Zabriskie certainly didn't reveal all in 2006

I'll leave it out for you in the special Re...
