let's check the velotoober predictions:
> s1 - Ineos (Godon or Vauquelin)
In hindsight I don't know why visma wasn't rated higher
> s2 - Pogi
well, he technically gave it away 
> s3 - breakaway victory (mohoric, verstrynge, benoot, healy, plapp, some uno-x rider)
yes, well
> s4 - reduced sprint (mads, godon)
you could call it that

enlightened knowledge here: Everybody is a heatlet it just fucks bigger people with big watts more than it fucks smaller people with smaller watts. It works the same for everyone, even if you're as acclimatized to heat as you can be you still lose performance. If you need to push z5/6 to keep up with the guys pushing just over z4 you're in a pickle here

lipowitz (much heavier than all the other gc guys) also says he's struggling with the heat atm although he always says he's satisfied with his performance after every stage. 
This of course means he will pop the fuck off once we're at altitude and it gets cooler







































































I saw some tt saddles for around 700 bucks or maybe even a thousand lately, been shopping to replace an ism on the verge of disintegration. Settled for a chyna saddle for like 55 bucks after it was the only one that fit my criteria, it's pretty good. More than 220g lighter than the ism too which puts my road bike even further into illegality

gave my old moldy shifters to a guy who wants to dissect them to find out what exactly died and how
since I made that case public in the regional cycling chat I've had numerous people try and dump their hoarded rim brake stuff on me. From mechanical sram red to mechanical super record to EPS super record to mechanical dura ace, feels like I'm at a bazaar > take my stuff eh is good eh I make good price eh






































































> "Didi the Devil"—or Dieter Senft (74), as the German is actually named—is world-famous as the costumed devil who appears on your TV screen during every Tour de France. He has been a fixture since 1993, but this year’s Tour got off to a disappointing start for Senft: his camper van was broken into. This occurred during the night of July 3–4—right at the start of the Tour in Barcelona. Senft, who was preparing to follow the entire Tour de France, missed the opening stage as a result. He had only just acquired a new van, but it attracted the attention of thieves. He shared the incident on Instagram, listing what had been stolen: "My toothbrush and comb, a mini-fridge full of ham and cheese, and a Teufel speaker." Later, Senft posted an update revealing that "quite a bit more was missing—rough neighborhood, Barcelona."
Even the devil is not safe in Barcelona

I don't know who Caner is, but here is you answer courtesy of the tour:
> Hello Caner ! Great question ! It is indeed always important for a leader to have at least one teammate alongside him on climbs, even though the drafting effect is less pronounced than on the flat, it certainly exists, especially at speeds above 20 km/h like on the Col d’Aspin. Furthermore, beyond the psychological boost of being surrounded by teammates, they can assist their leader in the event of a mechanical issue, shield him from the wind, and keep him positioned at the front of the peloton.

Not to mention Del Toro would have won either way.
But then I don't think Lipo would have lost anything by giving Remco a little bit of a leadout there, so I don't think Remco was asking for anything unreasonable. Would probably have been smarter to just do it (not at 100%, of course) to keep the peace within the team.


 >>/102451/
Remco shouldn’t be pubicly stating this internal crap anyway. Can’t imagine Ayuso and Skelly being happy about their ordeal either.
I just think it’s silly that they all rather poker for third instead of going for two. Maybe the race situation is too dangerous if both Bora’s worked on the flat and lidl guy’s dropped them mid climb or something.



 >>/102434/
> A frustrated Evenepoel told his story to Sporza. “I had asked for a lead-out and I didn’t get one,” said the Olympic champion. “Yes, I was angry, and rightly so. In the Tour of Catalonia, I rode at the front for him for 30 kilometers. I asked to do a kilometer of work at the front, and that wasn’t possible. That made me angry, and that will have to be discussed thoroughly tonight.”

Solid watts for post-racing off-season
Usualy my watts turn to shit in July/August

Anyway, got the white jersey recently and it is a game changer. I might be a bit more adjusted for those inhuman (25+) temperatures, but still.
I think Joonas only got dropped today because he had like 20 more degrees inside his black jersey than Dopacar.





> “He had to throw up on the descent of the Aspin, so we just said: ‘We’re taking you out of the race, enough is enough.’” said team manager Jürgen Roelandts. 

> And so the team did take Uijtdebroeks out of the race after all. “We pushed him a bit for another two days, because that is allowed to some extent in the Tour. But sometimes enough is enough. As a rider, you never want to give up, but when you see that it’s not working, we have to make that decision. Accept, adapt, and move on. So, look for other goals, maybe the Vuelta already.”

wow, nobody could have seen that coming
some of these guys are absolutely insane



> Just release this bozo. Most overrated GC prospect of the past 10 years. Full of excuses and drama
> A pity to read his words..   Remco is his own worst enemy.  Now he will work on creating even enemies within his team.  What's that saying?  "a million dollar arm, with a two-cent head"..
> Oh boo hoo. I asked for a pony and didn't get one. Then Lipowitz bests him by half a minute.
> Keep these remarks for discussion face to face on the bus @EvenepoelRemco Much more professional, and probably more productive! Give respect and you might get respect back🤔
> He's toxic. A great talent, but what team wants his destructive behaviour?
> Remco is the biggest drama queen and so very unlikeable. Bad form to air his grievances in the media before they even had internal discussions about it.
> It was clear that it wasn't going to work. The guy needs a mental coach and finally has to find his center. Look at Pogi and Jonas — those two come across like total stoners when you hear them talk. Deeply relaxed.
> remco is always bitching about something...
glad we all agree

 >>/102469/
to be fair movistar have been incredibly active trying to get into breaks

anyway how do you fix the KOM classification going by default to pog/jonas? there is absolutely no point to it nowadays since breaks are always caught before the final mountain, gifting a stage win + KOM points, doubled if its MTF

> The suspected return of 'bidon final' and an opioid three times stronger than tramadol – does pro cycling still have a painkiller problem?
> One of the MPCC’s major areas of concern is so-called ‘bidon final’. A relic of more dubious times, it has suggested they are back in the peloton “with multiple borderline substances said to be mixed and passed into the peloton to prepare riders ready for the final. Next to this, we face other potential substance abuse with medicine such as tapentadol”.
> “It’s much more powerful than tramadol,” he says. “It’s an opioid, has analgesic effects similar to morphine and can therefore raise the pain threshold.
> He and his team had 27 trained cyclists undertake a 25-mile time trial after taking 100mg tramadol or a placebo. On average, the cyclists enjoyed a 1.3% speed increase on tramadol thanks to a nine-watt increase in power.












delayed blog posting from yesterdays gravel ride in the Slovak country side, it is VERY beautiful here but my God you have to stay off road or some gypsy in a lada WILL try to off you. also that tree is 500+ years old apparently. (pictures coming in next posts)



























> I don't believe that. If you look at how long Vingegaard stays somewhat close uphill on the Tourmalet (it's 30 sec at the top), then he was completely gutted in terms of wattage and power on the run to the finish and on the descent.

> The gap remained really small uphill for a very long time, even though Vingegaard admitted he wasn't riding his best values. Visma will likely take heart from the fact that Pogacar already had a tough time mentally during the third week last year, and now, due to Urska's crash, has also missed out on an altitude stimulus.

> Last year on Hautacam, the climb was a real knockout blow. This one was less so.

Das rite chuds













 >>/102555/
The equally amazing thing is how strong his team is. You have fatties like Tim Wellens completely shredding peloton on a Cat 1 climb. And then all the GC contenders are being put in the red by Felix fucking Großschartner. Del Toro didn't even need to go anything, entire group of favorites was destroyed by Pogi's 2nd and 3rd domestiques.







After rewatching yesterdays Tourmalet its pretty clear the whole plan of UAE was to 1-2 attack with Pog and Del Torro all the way to the finish. But Del Torro blew himself up in the initial acceleration. He later recovered a bit but the whole plan was to for Del Torro to also put a minute into Vingegaard. That really shows the mindset within UAE. They dont just want to win the Tour they want to be 1 and 2. 
Im sure the rest of the Tour will be in this direction.
