Pro-cycling thread

Can't disagree but accidental partridge is strong with the rant on flares.

well I think we got our answer. to be up the road to help Jonas when he has dropped the rest of the pack. Pog looks good though.

this is shaping up nicely

Looks like it's gonna pay off

Kirby is going to make like a vulture and spread his wings? The fuck?

I mean they get them in the Pyrenees but 🤷‍♂️

Pog bluffing for the camera?

Vingegaard with the new (in competition) KOM on the Tourmalet. Did that say by 2 mins!?

I’m not sure why anyone is watching the GCN stream in the UK when ITV4 (ch26) has all stages live and (with the exception of Cadel who’s maybe a touch nervous) has far less fluffing of lines and inane analogies

Sean Kelly...

Wout von Aert conducting the crowds in the switchbacks.

A positive for GCN? Not sure on that personally…!

I’d take 5 mins of ads per hour over low quality streams and dodgy commentary. Plus they put it in good places to go get a drink or back to “work”

Brilliant racing.

Getting even better.

Boom

Macron attacks Pog. His form in the last week has suggested it was likely.

Suspected this might happen today, but the bookies did too it seems, as Pog was only 9/2 and 2nd fav to JV. Race on.

What a stage. What a first week.

That’s not how you drink sparkling water…

So happy. Not sure I mind who wins as long as the racing stays this good. Good on Pog for bouncing back

What a tour!

Innit

Amazing tour so far. I thought Jai was going to be in yellow for a while.

Pog is a class act. I love him.

Yes - amazing. Well set up with the sparcours, but the racing has matched it. Love to see (as Carlton might say) mano a mano racing rather than steamrollering teams.

Amazing stuff, super pog.
