heywoodu 13,499 Posted May 14, 2017 #173 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Tour of California starts today by the way In fact, stage 1 has gotten underway around half an hour ago. Without Axeon Hagens Berman, Axel Merckx's team, which is just as stupid as Androni not being in the Giro.

This year king Sagan doesn't have it on a plate. So many sprinters are here it would be a nice battle for stages. Yep, I doubt he'll take all the sprints again I'm mostly really curious about Sam Oomen, 'our' next talented GC rider. Only 21 years old and so far this year 15th in Andalucia, 14th in Paris-Nice and 19th in Pais Vasco, I wonder what he can do in this field that just doesn't have a whole lot of fantastic GC riders.

heywoodu 13,499 Posted May 16, 2017 #175 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Nice win for Majka, beating Bennett in a bit of a dirty sprint (in which Majka was sort of sprinting on the line of the laws, while Bennett was sprinting like he has an IQ of -20 or his brains had shut off temporarily) Nasty fall for Tom Skujins by the way, who was in the lead group, after which he was completely lost. Unbelievable and incredibly irresponsible that his team let him get back on the bike (even cycling greats like Robbie McEwen immediately went on Twitter asking the Cannondale people to please get him off the bike). At least after a while he finally got off.

heywoodu 13,499 Posted May 25, 2017 #177 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Meanwhile in Japan, Canola is on fire It's not like there are any serious top riders there, but still, it's slightly remarkable.. Stage 6 is fun by the way, the traditional 11km stage from the bottom to the top of Mt Fuji (and no, not a time trial) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Nothing stupid about it, much more fun than a 200km stage with one climb at the end, like they love in the Vuelta Like this: _______/ A short stage with one major climb where everyone starts off fresh? That's one hell of a guarantee for attacks and spectacular racing. I'm not sure about the grade by the way.
