Something very sovlful about this. The drenched riders, the fat girl bringing towels, the old people sitting watching the chaos around them, the riders sitting on the staircase, exploring the hotel and bringing expressos...

If it isn't a chain hotel, I'd imagine this will become a good story for the owner to tell for decades.

It is cyclismo

Looks like it's already OVER again for Seixas

 >>/115819/
truly the next um...who was the last clean Italian GC rider? I don't dare calling him the next Pantani.

apparently FINN will do the normal road WC and EC instead of u23

 >>/115824/
At least the points are right.
Awful lot of scrolling with not that much interesting stuff, the most readable thing are these bar charts for points.

 >>/115826/
reminds me of that cx race where it snowed and wout broke his ankle

 >>/115817/
Yeah it's very nice

My estimatoor gives it more reasonable numbers tbqh

 >>/115831/
probably overestimating his weight that one

 >>/115832/
how much weight diff do you need to go from 6.9 to 6.7 w/kg?

 >>/115833/
since the best guess for his weight is 59.1 kg right from the source it would be like 1.6 kg

 >>/115834/
Do you assume constant watts? It's not how w/kg estimators work

 >>/115836/
I don't assume anything

 >>/115837/
I meant same speed uphill the 70kg rider needs a lower w/kg than the 60kg one, but I'm not sure 1.6 kg means 0.2 w/kg diff, does it?

Looks like there is another reason. I wonder how accurate they can be on cda/wind

temperature and altitude change is also a ? and imo the the 6.4% gradient number is already not off to a great start because the start is a slightly descending false flat so he hits the climb at 57 kph 
if you just take the climb from the moment that momentum is gone and he's at a steady rhythm it's a 6.8% gradient until it flattens off in the last 200 meters

I have a BIG ride planned tomorrow in the Isergebirge, planning some BIG 3.0 W/Kg for 35 minutes because the rest of the week is a big unknown

I'm in a rural area of the state of New York, enjoying a few days of relaxation, cycling, and vin (Finger Lakes region is known for Riesling). 

It's also home to a large group of Mennonites, a religious sect like the Amish. Floyd Landis was a Mennonite. Anyway, the peloton I saw was a group of teens and young men dressed like this on beater bikes going about 30 km/h uphill at a 9% gradient.

> Isergebirge
looking that up right now, looks good. I was actually planning to spend 5 days of this week in the Bayerischer Wald and Böhmerwald but that's postponed, maybe in september (probably not 2bh)
maybe next year heh...

 >>/115846/
Bohmerwald is absolutely the best for ciclismo out of czech em I think, especially with gravel

> Seixas
> Finn
> Noval, I guess
Any next next Remco (aka the next next next Merckx) coming through? Please abstain from mentioning any sub 1.7m manlets.
What about the next British science experiment (the UK will likely host the Olympics in a not so far future, so they have to start working on that any day now)?

My money is on my boy Lancelot GAYANT

 >>/115849/
He's more like the next Grug innit.

 >>/115848/
I'm above the cutoff :)))

 >>/115851/
2bqh I think it's good for races - a form of entertainment - to not be decided by whichever rider is more willing to kill themselves

imagine the riders encountering that yesterday

 >>/115856/
I just realised Finlay Pickering is not the same person as Riley Pickrell

lol I didn't realize untill now that they actually annulled the intermediate sprint points too
was there any good reason for this or just to spite Hayter?

 >>/115858/
To spite hater is already a good reason.

 >>/115856/
He's a widar believer? Also this is a pogiwinslol

BIG ride postponed to Thursday

 >>/115858/
It's the rules when you outright cancel a stage

I got my thesis pre-examination reviews back, glowing reviews, both recommend graduating with honours. This bert is about to finally finish his Phd! Also my supervisor scammed a good european professor to serve as my opponent in the defence at the end of October. Now I just have to do all this tedious work like write the acknowledgements, write a "layman's abstract" for the university media team, contact the publishing house to get the physical copies, do all kinds of paperwork with the university and so on, but almost there.

 >>/115864/
Good news. Remember the most important part is the post defence food (might not be true in finnland)

 >>/115865/
Yeah very important here as well, feast to honour the opponent of the defence.
