you don't understand it's the KICK of true goombling that compels one to pick Rogla, once you've felt that rush you just have to get more. Yes Roglic likely won't make it and we will be angry, yes he likely will chute but what if he makes it through what if he does well? What if pog and vingo fuck up and he rakes in the points??
Imagine the tremendous euphoria of S. YATES betters while he put minutes into the LATAMs after they put 1k on him when his odds were at like 21 because it seemed like del TORO's victory was guaranteed. This is true goombling

do I lose my velopoints if I pick a rider that is obviously doped to the brim for the tour and he actually gets caught, because French police didn't do any of those funny bus raids in a while and maybe ASO has some dirt on a specific team that wants to establish that one cycling thing so they tipped off WADA and French police.

the shift is that he's gone from a race-to-win attitude that aligns with the spirit of the sport, to the assumption that he should be able to win and therefore if he doesn't it was due to outside factors. i blame that bitch oumi, or maybe he was just always like this and this is the closest thing he's faced to competitive hardship in the sport, at least with his giro blues of times gone by he had the excuse of being a teenager, now he's run out of excuses. a humbling is in order.

I thought he would bolt once I stopped but he wasn't very phased by me, kinda wanted to come closer to him but leaving him alone won.
This is also kinda the main promenade/bike path going down souf so he has to be accustomed to people.

It's not about giving up your own chances for nothing.
You risk your secondary placement for a chance to win. But don't worry it will never happen because riders and sports directors are way too risk averse to do that. Especially in Tour de France with all that sponsor money on the line.

You don't decide who wins beforehand. What happens happens and it might be you winning and it might not be. If riders keep attacking UAE eventually one might get away. If you don't do this you have a 0% chance of winning. If you do this you have a small chance of winning which is better than nothing.

Personally I really liked the way Carapaz raced in the Giro. He knew that he had to risk dropping from 2nd to 3rd if he wanted a chance at getting 1st. He could have helped Del Toro catch Yates to protect his 2nd place but that meant giving up his chances of winning. The majority of riders would rather fight for secondary placements because it's safer than going for the win (see G2 syndrome in every race ever).

I mean it's not so relevant these days because Pogi is too strong. Even if every other GC captain attacked in turn and they didn't reel each other in Pogi could just drop them all whenever he wanted to. But I'm not against the sentiment of banding together against one very dominant team if that's the only option for winning.

Sure what carapaz did was fine, but in the case of Horner's retarded take the gap between jonas and the rest is bigger than the gap between him on pogi so it makes 0 chances for people to help him. Also every team hates visma because they ride like retards

sirup is about 70-80% sugar. it makes for a good basis for your bidon if you aim for 60g per bottle. but it gets really sweet above 1/6 sirup to water ratio. you can add salt and magnesium for electrolytes yourself and add malotodextryn to add more carbs.
if you are a super cheapskate you use raw sugar, but sirup gives you some aroma and you can use different sirups to have some variation.

No saar, this is a pure mtb Spez Rockhopper with a comfy front rack for that bag which is easy to take off or rerack and doubles as a shoulder bag.
The rear isn't even a panier mount, just an extra space for some bag or a MIK mount (which won't fit now) but I bought it as an extra structure to keep the fender rigid.
Because I like not being splashed but hate protruding wobbly chinesium.
It is my ol trusty shopping cart bike which I will also sometimes take for off-road rides.

EF is a fun team, but I wish he had a real squad around him when he goes for GCs -- UAE domestiques dominating earlier stages is probably what sealed it; the La Vuelta is going to be tough but he can at least podium if Pog and Vinegar go and can probably win it if they don't

There is merit to taking protein mid-ride but it's more in the BIG rides, 6h+, 4500kJ+ etc. so that the body doesn't use up muscle protein. I often bring a small bag of whey and drink it when I top up my bottles after 3-4h, or then I just buy a small protein bar with 20g protein for like 1.5e. Don't know why you would put it in the drink mix itself though

I tried a new hydration strategy today - basically drinking twice as much as usual, to around 1.5l per hour, made me first sugar flask and added around 1g of salt per hour. complete game changer! I felt like I had infinite power on the climbs (got PRs on all climbs except one), sweated less, and next to zero fatigue. after this torty egg ride I actually feel fresh and could easily add another torty eggs to me basket

tl;dr I was riding dehydrated for 20+ years and just now realized it

Looking at the map of NZ, it's really a shame it was colonized by the angl*s. They really don't care about mountains, hiking or anything.
NZ should have been colonized by germans, austrians or the swiss. Even the czechs would probably do a better job. So many mountains and there's like 100 km of trails.

When our kid was born bertina wanted me to stop going to the grocery store and just use delivery as we had so little free time and using it for doing groceries seemed wasteful. But I didn't want to, like you I wanted to pick and choose the individual groceries. Now that the kid is older I always go shopping with her since she likes to explore the store and talk about everything she sees. And these days bertina even likes it since it's 1h more free time for her when the kid and I are there, hehe.

Very good bert! I think this is the case for most everyone. Every bert ITT should do simple hydration testing: weigh yourself before the ride, then after the ride, and account for the water drunk during riding. When I started testing I quickly realised I need way more water than I thought, even during leisurely 1h recovery rides I was sweating around 0.8l per hour, and much much more during threshold efforts. On long rides these days I use two 1l bottles on my frame and a 2l hydration backpack, and I am refilling all of that after around 3h.

The question remains: can the Belgian from Visma | Lease a Bike also go for his own chances? 'Wout is someone who will always help his team, but you have to give him his chances', says Vanmarcke. 'He has too many qualities for that. It is important to sprint a few times to maintain the feeling of mixing it up.

It's weird to see them getting rid of some decent runners like Armirail, Godon and Berthet. And Vendrame has been with the team for so long.
I understand they want to become a top team with the new investments they've gotten but they'll still need some helpers for whoever they sign on. Maybe they were overpaid and didn't want to accept lower wages?

Its a city in Galicia.
Pretty much like Brittany in France its the very north west of Spain, both of Celtic origins. 
And just like Brittany it has a very particular micro climate, Coruña  (or La corogne in french ) never gets too hot in summer ( you won't get past 25 degrees ) and in winter it never gets too cold ( never below 5 ), also unlike most of spain you get a decent amount of rain, making the region pretty green and being home to the Galician beef which is really, really tasty.

I see broken glass on the ground almost every day.
I have to watch out when I ride on the streets because there will be broken glass right in the gutter but not on the sidewalk. Do these subhumans drive cars with their hand extended, holding a beer in a bottle, and just nonchalantly drop it with zero force, just a release?

Before you could find broken glass only in hobo spots or sometimes around a shop hobos frequent.

And by subhumans I mainly understand ukies, but sudacas are infesting my place more and more.
