That crash

Belgian TV has a guy on one of the motorbikes focused on Ben Hermans of all places, for whatever possible reason. Latest update: he is not in the main group anymore!

Not so happy with Nizzolo in my prediction for today, but I'm perfectly fine and happy with having Van Aert and Sagan in the top-3...confident for them

The way this is going, Jumbo should have picked Sven Kramer as replacement for Steven Kruijswijk..

Just wait a little longer, we're going to the second descent of the Rimiez, expect at least 10 more guys on the ground!

I've grown used to that by now, but early in the year it was a bit weird indeed

Nizzolo, Zakarin, Amador, Bonifazio, Sivakov, Bol and Gesink behind, together with Porte I think. Mostly B-sprinters and helpers, apart from Nizzolo and Porte. And Zakarin if you can still call him a GC threat

Is it time to start listing the riders who did not fall today yet?

Rollerski marathon for @brunamoura

Whoops, should've done some research, now I missed Sivakov isn't here for a decent GC result at all

Schär, Grellier and Gautier. That's it for the next few hours The total stage time is a rather useless addition to the permanent graphics by the way, that has absolutely zero value

'open' links to the Tour de France prediction contest and I find it hard to judge the tennis skills of say Wout van Aert or Alexey Lutsenko

But for what purpose other than "it'd be fun and fun is good and healthy"? Because there are way cheaper and more feasible options for that, one can imagine.

Ok now it's getting crazy, Verdasco missing a GS (that's not cancelled) for the first time since 2003?!

They're on strike....France and Brazil will rule the shit out of this

To be fair, what does not make Her Royal Highness Queen Serena Williams extremely upset?

Nah, it's a matter of waiting for a while, saying 'and now things really have to change' and then get back to playing eventually. Without anything actually changing, sadly.

So NHL and NBA playoffs are both halted while waiting for a while? That gives some time to catch up on the games I have missed

It wasn't necesarily an argument as much as it was merely an observation. I am very much not a fan of Bezos neither, there are some incredibly rich people who at least spend part of their insane wealth in ways that benefit others, Bezos is definitely not one of them.

The funniest thing is how many people complain about this from their modern devices and stuff they bought on Amazon, with all kinds of stuff bought on Amazon in their house

What if you are slightly upset (as in, not agreeing) with the athletes' latest protest/boycott/strike/refusals etc, but still are more upset about the reasons behind it? Is that ok? Or is it only acceptable to be completely upset with the reasons behind it and be entirely in favor of the athletes' protests?

Finished the 4th and final season of 13 Reasons Why this week, pretty strong ending. Then I went to Wikipedia and under the critics header read that apparently there were a ton of negative reviews Some things, sure, but others were just absolute bullshit

I see mine nearly was Although that was my second post on this specific forum, not sure about the old one.

Like a Brazilian choosing biathlon and/or cross-country skiing
