What a terrible day to be busy at work, looks like I missed a spectacular tdf stage!

You sure did. One of the best in a long time!

I hope this ends better than the last time I saw a Danish rider of a Dutch team (this team, even) ride in the yellow jersey

 

No nightly press releases and such please. 

Don't even joke about it! 

What a sprint from Birkett taking the gold from Brandt. A bit disappointing not getting a gold there, but it's better than nothing!

CORT!!! 

Well. Here's the Danish Prime Minister at a festival.
 

Pretty bad first day for Denmark but yesterday the bowlers secured two semi finals. Should be at least one medal there.

Unbelievable bad luck for Thibaut Pinot. First he crashes, then literally a minute later he goes to pick up a musette & his soigneur hits him in the face with it!  

That was a Trek soigneur

Terrible match by us while Germany shows that they're certainly part of the fight for the top spots.

Meanwhile Kühl gets a red after a laughable first yellow.

No stopping Tadej, wins yet another stage.  By the end of all this, could have a bigger margin of victory than he had last year if he keeps pushing through the mountains

No doubt that he is a massive favourite, but Vingegaard is stronger on longer climbs than what we had today. Quite a bit to talk about him losing 5 minutes.

Damn you, Slovenia!

1. Bissegger (99)

2. Too late (176)

3. Jakobsen (5)

4. Philipsen (2) - 282

5. Mathieu Van der Poel

Magus Cort just won 11/12 climbs. He is absolutely dominating the KOM.

 

Great ride from Van Aert!

 

 

Winning the first 11 climbs is a new record. The old one is from 1958!

Awesome stage finish. Would only be better if Jonas was on the wheel of Van Aert!

1. Bissegger (99)

4. Philipsen

A bit of 2024 rumours:

Going with Fabio Jakobsen 

We just had a small shower. The roads will be slightly wet in the beginning 

We're getting ready in Copenhagen 

I'm in. I'll go with Bissegger today

Teenagers getting pregnant is a global theme. School mass shootings is almost endemic to USA and their crazy gun culture (and holding on to laws from 1791 ). If Americans want to live in 18th century reality then it makes sense sexual education gets removed from schools as well

Holding on to laws from 1791 isn't so much the problems. The problem is the crazy interpretations!

Pretty damn surprising to see Finland getting a Super 500. Awesome!

Wtf  Only 2 tickets for European countries in the women's football tournament?

With 6 of the top 8 teams in the current World Ranking and at least 3 of them missing the Games, the women's Olympic football tournament can not be taken seriously.

Not that I disagree but it's the same as in Tokyo (as france gets the host quota)

Well. Ended out just following the people around me. Meant that I wouldn't be going for negative splits but a more even pace.

Felt a bit hot during the first half hour or so, but luckily I started out with a bottle that I could just throw away at the first water depot.

After the 18 km mark it felt like a bit too much. I walked for 100m or so twice. And yet I managed to go below the 2 hour mark!
