With the eggs crisis, I usualy buy a lot at the same time when they are discounted and they probably overstate their welcome. When I buy 3x30 eggs, some of them might be here for more than a month. And I suppose you're supposed to be rotating them every now and then but I don't do that.

In my book, if Pogacar hates the Visma team, it's because they're funny without needing to overdo their image to be so (this applies especially to Jorgenson, though, and Tadej seems to particularly dislike him).

you're riding at a physical disadvantage due to broad shoulders and upperbody

no idea that doesn't seem to be something anyone has ever studied or at least I never heard anything about it and I've been trying to read about everything cycling science related.
As a rule of thumb its always a good idea to ignore everything oldfags say because its all based on nothing but their imagination and as we all know pro cyclists are literal retards with only a few exceptions. They've been wrong about almost everything from nutrition to tires to training to handlebars to gearing to race tactics, man that covers almost everything kek.
Off the top of my head I think there are some top tier pros with rather short legs like cav and scaleb at least they always looked short legged to me. Arguably it should be a lot easier to ride in an aero position with short femurs as well

alright but the idea of having better leverage by a long upper leg ratio to lower leg seems plausible to me. Also when i look around at the very good amateurs they often seem to have extremely thin and long upperlegs (besides virtually no upperbody to speak off offcourse)

Arguably being MASSIVE like bert over there is even worse for flats than climbing because it greatly increases your cda for no gain and that'll cost you a ton of watts at very high speeds while + a few kg is much easier to stomach. I mean shit what does it matter for a non pro but its a misconception that anything but being a twig is viable for going fast. It's a leeks world and benoots body is peak performance as dire as that may be

as far as endurance sports goes cycling is probably the most inclusive towards different bodytypes. compare to marathon running for example where every single runner has a absurd leg length proportion. i wouldn't be surprised if the most important performance effect of body morphology is aerodynamics, and only a very minor role in power output.

aerodynamics in what sense? Slippery skin? 
To me it seems like guys like Pog and Milan are aero like a brick house. Memco is a good example of someone who can fold himself to a conserable advantage tho it seems, but i guess it wouldnt mean much if he didnt have a considerable engine to use in that position.
I dont wanna name names of Dutch top amateurs but many seem to have this certain body type, long, skinny, remarkably skinny and long upper legs especially and a childlike upperbody. 
I did boxing for a while and was naturally pretty good at it even though i was a retard in remembering certain combos. Im not saying femur to shinbone ratio is the end all be all but im wondering if the opposite, short femur to shinbone ratio isnt a like those top dutch amateur riders trying boxing. Try hard as they might its difficult to see them overcoming their genetic upperbody lackage compared to a short broad guy like me with long arms. 
Also Mercx basically said short femur to shinbone ratio guys never stood a chance due to leverage problems. But maybe he was just talking shit while on dopage

> aerodynamics in what sense
remco for example has his little t-rex arms and shoulders which help contribute to his small TT position, even if it has little effect on his power output it reduces his profile and the reverse would have the opposite effect. 
> long, skinny, remarkably skinny and long upper legs especially and a childlike upperbody
probably just due to optimizing for cycling and the muscle development that brings about.

 FIRST MEDICAL UPDATE DROPPED TIM WELLENS CONFIRMS SMALL SCRATCH WOUNDS  

Tim Wellens comes with first update on fallen Pogacar: "It could have been much worse"

Just a touch of a rear wheel and the Tour can be over just like that. Luckily that didn't happen to Tadej Pogacar.

The defending champion did slide across the asphalt, but seemed spared any serious injuries.

"Tadej only has some scrapes," was the first update from teammate Tim Wellens. "But I think all in all he came away from it OK. It could have been a lot worse."

"He told me he was sliding toward a brush, but he didn't hit it."

In the end, the world champion didn't lose any time either because his competitors decided to wait. "That's super nice. I heard there was great fair play. That's great to hear."

"You never know what the consequences are after a crash," UAE team boss Mauro Gianetti told me. "But he was able to jump back on his bike almost immediately and the peloton waited. That was a great sign of respect. We take our hat off to them. But for Tadej, fortunately, it doesn't seem to be too bad, although we were scared for a while."

Although, of course, it remains to be seen how the world champion spends the night. Tomorrow, with the stage to Hautacam, one of the key stages in this Tour is scheduled.

I saw some huge bears when I was visiting North Carolina this past winter, but it's been a few years since I've seen any in CA -- when I was getting the wilderness permit for Yosemite, the ranger told me to "chase off any bears" that might come to my campsite at night, but they were a no-show

> A Kind Gesture: Tadej Pogačar's UAE teammate Pavel Sivakov spotted outside the UNO-X team bus this morning, sharing breakfast with the Norwegian-Danish team. Congratulating first-time stage winner Jonas Abrahamsen, he also made amends with Tobias Halland Johannessen, seemingly forgiving the 25 year old for causing Pogačar to crash near the end of yesterday's stage. In a heartwarming display of sportsmanship that included a large amount of close contact and constant offerings of food from Sivakov, it seems that any questions of bad blood between Halland Johannessen and the UAE camp have been put to bed.

True question, why is motor pacing still so important in this sport. They did some things for few races (san remo comes to mind) but yesterday was pretty bad

When Astana sends its people, they’re not sending their best. I guess the better riders were busy farming some 2.1 race in Asia.

I had that before but now that I've lost some 5kg this year I definitely have noticed my quads getting smaller. Not sure the muscles have shrunk though as the strength is still there in the gym. Maybe you just have a shitload of glycogen + water there, hehe.

> Wout van Aert's involvement in breakaways and chasing stage wins is something he doesn't approve of. Former rider and team manager Bjarne Riis, in his analysis for Danish newspaper BT Sport, criticized Visma-Lease a Bike's tactics, and Van Aert's in particular. After yesterday's stage, in which Van Aert finished fifth, Riis stated: "It's no surprise that Van Aert attacks like that, but I think it's completely wrong. You can't say you want to win the Tour de France and then let your domestiques waste their energy like this. Visma-Lease a Bike jeopardizes the bigger goal. I have a problem with that."
 Straightforward. Although, it's questionable whether you can pigeonhole a rider like Van Aert as a 'domestique'. Someone of his caliber also wants to win trophies himself. "We agree that Van Aert is a special rider," said Riis. "But he hasn't shown that yet in this Tour. He's not as strong as a few years ago." This isn't the first time that Van Aert's attacking spirit has been criticized by the Danish side. A few days ago, Riis already said that Van Aert "races like an amateur." And just before the Tour started, Trine Hansen, Jonas Vingegaard's wife, also stated in an interview that our compatriot is too focused on his own success.
Danes HATE him

the baldoped donkey is correct on all accounts. Wout should get in line and eat wind for the greater good instead of wasting energy getting kwabbed. He's not good enough to go for stage wins, he dropped like a rock behind grug

don't really find any pro peloton bike all appealing, its all okay but nothing great this season. The merda pinarello maybe because the paintjob looks better than what I have. The giant that Schmid rides in swiss NC colors looks dope so maybe that as well

Kek, this is part of the boomer special in south of france. These dudes will ride 30h a week, be full black by June and wear short socks in summer. Some of them are acutally pretty fast
