Olympian1010 7,490 Posted July 24, 2021 #51 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I’d be curious to see the stats on how much water was consumed during today’s race. Let’s just hope no one’s practicing purposeful dehydration like they did during the 1904 Olympic Marathon “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,490 Posted July 24, 2021 #52 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Peloton feels like a Sunday Group Ride at the moment with all these friendly chats going on “Sport has the power to change the world.

Federer91 2,153 Posted July 24, 2021 #53 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Our commentators trying to find something that isn't perfect on the roads and surrounding infrastructure and so far they are empty handed We had a half hour presentation how different this race (and scenery) is going to be from the ones in Europe.

Which might make it both interesting and dangerous, especially on the downhills where the roads are flowing very differently We saw in Rio how that turned out, so definitely interesting.

Don't remind me, i'm still frustrated with what happened to Nibali.. As for this race, we have probably another hour of pedestrian riding, until we reach Fuji, so just in time to watch some badminton and our women doubles.
