Are you going to go watch from the streets? It’s a cool experience if you haven’t before. 

 

I did it 2 times, when the peloton passed by Košice. the first time it was literally 400m from my block. Sadly this time the organizers set a rather easier track made for sprinters. we have more to present in Slovakia than long boring flat stages meh

It's no sarcasm. If Algeria stays high in the rankings, then Burkina Faso gets to go to Tokyo.

Tour de France was not the only big race with absolute mayhem today

Dear Lord, have mercy on our souls.

Right, we never have to see that race back on the calendar

The entire sprint was disrupted because cars were driving in the way in the last kilometer, while in the last 10km everywhere there were cars standing right on the road

 

Overall this was a disaster race.

Oooooooooooooh scandal @hckosice

 

 

The team manager of BORA has said Buchmann's 4th place has inspired them so much that next year they're going for the podium....and to do so, they need a stronger team, so "maybe we won't take any sprinter with us". Bye bye Sagan

Sagan’s more than a sprinter though. He’s a pretty good climber when he wants to be.
