There are like two Vectras, a KIA (maybe two), but on me stupid short ride I have seen two Porshs, a convertible Aston, a nice Jaguar.
Is this some kind of crisis marker, like tall office buildings?
The more of that shit is on the road the closer a financial crash is.

doubt it because Visma is generally disliked in the peloton. I mean a few years ago we had riders publicly talk bad about jumbo because they were acting arrogant everywhere and they were riding dangerous
wait actually there was this one conti rider who said vingo is really funny and nice behind the scenes while pog never talked to him kek that's probably his biggest friend outside of lab

Went out to see the storm and get a bit wet, no umbrella will keep out of it in this volume.
When I was coming back I have seen a little thing darting through the middle of the road, spooked.
It was a small dog, I tried to get down to its level and call it in, otherwise he might panic even more and swerve by me just into oncoming traffic but it was no use.
Little man was on the go, there was no stopping him until he gets tired.
The drivers generally behave in these conditions, slow down and all so I hope he doesn't get run over.

"Mathieu had been experiencing cold-like symptoms for the past few days," the team's press release begins. "Yesterday afternoon, his symptoms began to worsen significantly. The team doctor monitored him closely throughout the day. Towards the evening, Mathieu developed a fever and was transferred to the Centre Hospitalier de Narbonne for further examinations.

"Medical tests revealed that Mathieu has pneumonia. In consultation with the medical team, it has been decided that he cannot continue the match. His health is the highest priority, and rest and recovery are now essential. Mathieu must rest for at least a full week. After this period, he will undergo further medical examinations to assess his recovery and determine the next steps in his rehabilitation."

> Wout van Aert has addressed the chaotic descents of mountain passes after a stage with an uphill finish in the Danish media. There have already been two stages like this in this Tour, and the descent from Hautacam was particularly "scary," according to Van Aert.

> "I feel like it's gotten even worse than in previous years," Van Aert told 'BT'. "The mountain (Hautacam, ed.) was packed with people, and it would have been much safer if they had let people stand on the side of the road for another 10 to 15 minutes after the finish."

> "That means we have to ride among the people. The police do their utmost to keep everyone off the road during the race," Van Aert said. "But as soon as that's done, everyone rushes down, and that makes it very dangerous. We have good control of our bikes, but we also have to ride among pedestrians and other cyclists."

> Juan Ayuso, die de voorbije jaren werd vertegenwoordigd door zijn ouders, heeft met Giovanni Lombardi een manager onder de arm genomen. Opvallend want met een contract tot eind 2028 bij Team UAE is Ayuso eigenlijk niet op de markt. Volgens onze informatie zou Ayuso echter weg willen bij UAE, omdat hij er geblokkeerd wordt door Pogacar en na de Tour van vorig jaar ook niet meer in het programma van Pogacar wordt ingedeeld. Zo mist Ayuso deze Tour en mag hij ook de Vuelta niet rijden. Aan Lombardi om met een oplossing te komen.
ayuso isn't allowed to ride together with Pogi?

UAE has a simple ruleset: If Pogacar is present he is the captain otherwise it's every man for himself.
Ayuso didn't respect the rule so now he doesn't get to race with Pogi anymore.

Funny thing about the region around montpellier is that 90% of the agriculture is for grapes and you can easily see it from the helly shots. Languedoc roussilon has been for a long while the region that produces the most wine of france. It's not known internationally because it used to be pretty bad quality wine, but now people basically don't drink shit wine anymore so it's changing.

Big eggs scored, wife is away with the kid for the rest of the day, food is almost ready, Ventoux soon. Yeah I'm thinking it's a perfect day.
The ride went mostly fine but all of the sudden after 2.5h my right glute started feeling awkward, kind of like those times your lower back is tweaked and you need to sort of crack it to get it into place. Well it wouldn't crack, and my right leg had this weird nerve pain throughout the rest of the ride. Low cadence and an upright position helped make it bearable. Never had that happen before on a ride, I guess hitting some rough gravel pothole or something must have set it off. Doesn't hurt at all while standing or walking.

Today, we celebrate one of the GREAT stages of the year as well as my ascent to the TOP of the Veloleague with another /WORLD TOUR WINE/ !!

Today's koers ran directly thru Chateauneuf-du-Pape; attention payers will remember the SENSATIONAL bottle of 2015 Mas de Boislauzon CdP Tintot from Paris-Nice (which encouraged me to buy three bottles of the 2016 vintage). As I do not like to repeat myself, we have decide to find a bottle from the mythical appellation of Mont VENTOUX itself!

Famille Perrin La Vielle Ferme Cotes du Ventoux 2023 ($10.99)

Famille Perrin is one of the great winemakers of the Southern Rhone, with a collection of wines and styles ranging from this bottle up to their Grand Vin -- Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape. I have never had La Vielle Ferme before, but I do admit that I enjoy their "budget" Cotes du Rhone (Coudoulet de Beaucastel) as one of my go-to wines. La Vielle Ferme is grown on the slopes of Ventoux, and we have a typical Rhone blend to enjoy, although with a bit of a different mix - Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache, and Syrah.

Pours quite a dark ruby. The nose is surprisingly good - fresh raspberry, fresh strawberry, light licorice, and just a touch of bacon and pepper (I wonder how much Syrah is blended). There is some complexity to the nose, but definitely fruit forward. The palate is bone dry, with dusty tannins. There is a mélange of fruit and savory notes fighting through the tannins. The finish is short, without much acidity. The blend is great and obviously a well-made wine, but it is a bit hollow.

Boy, I was so hopeful based on the nose, but the structure definitely falls apart. For $11, this is great, a great food wine. I will probably stick with Coudoulet as my go-to Cotes du Rhone (which is like $35) but this is totally serviceable and widely-available.

Generally you will not find good stuff at a grocery store. For the same price, go to your local wine shop and ask for recommendations for your taste and budget. I drink tons of stuff <$25 which is insanely flavorful and interesting.

However, for grocery store wine, this isn't bad.
