Today could be interesting, finally a day for the attackers I hope. Cummings has been sitting in the last wheel laughing around again, so today it's time to attack, and it would be very, very unsurprising to see the likes of Calmejane and Benoot join him :p 

 

Roglic has been 'saving his legs' yesterday, losing 13 minutes, so one should expect him today as well.

According to a french journalist inside the peloton : Sunweb do seek to have Kittel out of the race today :cheer:

 

They will need ~50 minutes for that :cheer:

I definitely hope that's not gonna happen, I'm getting tired of Sunweb's #creatingmemories and semi-spiritual bullcrap and their destruction of the Dutch national champion's jersey (Sinkeldam is riding with a tiny Dutch flag and that's it, FDJ or Astana get it, Sunweb doesn't) :p 

 

Plus I hope the green jersey goes to the best sprinter. 

 

Where did you find this by the way, if I may ask?

Ah ah, I've thought that any dutch fan would support Sunweb for bringing a duch GT winner for the first time in decades.

 

Anyway, the more racing, the better :cheer:

Definitely :p 

 

And no, there's quite a lot of Dutch fans who don't really care about the flag in front of someone's name, because it's just a flag. Most cycling fans on the Dutch forums prefer their favourite cyclists instead of looking at the flag :cheer:

 

For example most people like Robert Gesink, but not Niki Terpstra or Lars Boom. And LottoNL-Jumbo isn't exactly popular in general because they've got a bunch of turds as managers like Jan Boven and Nico Verhoeven.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
