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.

    • 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.

    • 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
