Turns out British Paralympian legend Sarah Storey is another case of asthma TUE glory. And the TUE was granted AFTER she tested for too high salbutamol level. How long this crap will be tolerated? There must be millions in play if thet let these cheaters get away with such obvious rules bending. Good thing Storey isn't Russian or else they'd ban her ass forever.

:GBR rider Connor Swift pays a tribute to Julian Alaphillipe in the Tro Bro Leon - sits up & celebrates the win too early, almost loses it.  Millimetres in it.

Just catching up on the week's cycling outside of the Giro, this finish of Wednesday was insane :d What a freaking monster kilometer :lol:  That is really not the 11% the road book said it was :yikes:

Just saw it now but this was pretty cool, winning in your not really big home city (born and raised) after a great solo, how often does one get that chance? :bowdown:

Ronde van Limburg on Monday...Brent van Moer was working on a great solo ride and might have been on the way to the win (although the peloton was catching up very fast, I don't think he'd have made it)....but then was misdirected a few hundred meters before the finish :facepalm: 

 

 

The video of the misdirection is on the NOS website, not sure if it works outside of the Netherlands:

Damn what a win. And he basically did the same earlier this month.

New Evenepoel :p (although Evenepoel did this for more than a year, going on a solo attack and winning by minutes)

 

He does have a World Tour contract at BORA for next year already.

This item could go in several categories....:GBR Tom Pidcock has broken his collarbone in training. Is out of the Tour de Suisse, but still optimistic for the Tokyo VTT.

    • That was known from the start for  and will be planned for.   Sadly just the reality of sports in North America. Canada and the US are both huge, a flight from Vancouver to Halifax or from Seattle to Miami is north of five hours. Every sports league in North America has to deal with this kind of travel logistics on the regular, so none of this will seem particularly unusual to a North American player.
    • That’s not a long distance, it’s barely a 2h flight and there is no difference in timezone. Easily doable for fans as well.
