Recommended Posts

Remco Evenepoel and Wout van Aert have been chosen to represent Belgium in the Olympic time trial. No Victor Campenaerts, although he is the first reserve.

Have only just realised that the Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne suffers from the Driedaagse De Panne syndrome, in that it is in reality the Kuurne-Kortrijk-Kuurne.  :mad:
 

Five man front group refuse to help van der Poel, get caught by a group of about 20.

 

And Mads Pedersen benefits with the sprint win.

Good news is that this year’s Tour of Britain is confirmed in its usual early September timeslot. - we had absolutely no cycling last year with lockdown.

The domestic calendar is also scheduled to restart in June, so hopefully some regular events can be scheduled.  Lots of international pro riders have come out of that scene, not just Brits.

The Eritreans are getting better and better, yesterday was an impressive result for them as a whole (I know they're of course not a team) in a pretty hard stage with a very hard finish.

And that's even without Kudus.

Couple of things we missed from Sunday’s French Cup Cholet-Pays de la Loire

 

  • Elia Viviani got his first win of the year
  • Nacer Bouhani got his first relegation of the year

Bouhanni behaves like a dangerous idiot for the 627743rd time in his aggression-filled career, that was still missing from this year indeed :p 

Should have said the race is on the GCN app (can be cast), but I couldn’t find it on the ES Player.

Valverde, who'll celebrate his 41st birthday later this month, took his 128th pro win and his first since August 2019 today in impressive fashion :bowdown:

    • Honestly, I think you guys have a much better chance of success here than we do. It's already difficult to maintain this sport, and with this ridiculous format this year, things have gotten even worse. Years and years participating in the elite and we haven't been able to evolve; it was just a waste.
    • Ski Cross WC Craigleith     Men Gold- Federico Tomasoni Silver-  Kaleb Barnum Bronze-  Kristofor Mahler   First career WC podium for Barnum!    Women Gold-  Sandra Naeslund Silver-  Marielle Berger Sabbatel Bronze-  Fanny Smith   Full Results
    • Another weak result for our athletics team, which is typical; without Caio or Alisson, our chances of a medal in any high-level tournament are almost zero.   However, Juliana's result in the women's pole vault was a great 7th place. She is improving rapidly and still has a lot of room for growth.

    • some changes in the team and less importance to the sport, the two big teams until 2022/2023 ( and ) in south america started to decrease a lot and in the other hand the 3rd in South America () is growing a lot, is really impressive. We are currently the favourites for the LA2028 quota
    • Last few weeks of the World Cup season for winter sports (and Junior Worlds, depending on streaming), Men's Curling Worlds, Saquarema Elite 16, and some tennis   That's it unless I'm missing something, not much going on    Which is a good thing honestly, very busy next couple of weeks.
    • What happened to Brazil's women's team? On the other hand it looks like Argentina may be the top South American team on the women's side. Defeating Spain, China and South Africa was unlikely up until this year
    • These are the teams I think will qualify for the WC this window:           Hoping for some debutants to qualify!
    • defeats  7-5 for gold, Schwaller goes from junior world champions to world champions only two years later   win bronze 8-5 over
