also fun fact as these lads demonstate the meta in raping is riding out of the saddle with low to medium cadence for 75-100% of a race. 
A mate of mine who is a serial r*pist enlightened me on that, his indoor 20 min pb which was almost entirely out of the saddle is 22w higher than his outdoor 20 min pb. Crazy innit

no idea, apparently low cadence is more viable indoors in general compared to real cycling and in turn standing low cadence is easier to pedal than seated low cadence.
I'm not even sure if this really is widespread and not just a quirk for my mate and his goons, their sanity and thus credibility is questionable because after all they prefer to stay indoors instead of going outside.
But I did notice lots of lower cadence averages on zwift when I zwifted a lot one winter

Djien dobry! What a frantic week of racing we've had! Cyclisme is a certified world-wide pandemic in August 2025, with racing in the Arctic circle, South America, Eastern Europe, Iberian Peninsula, France, and the Himalaya all in one day!!! What a great day to enjoy another /WORLD TOUR WINE/ (bier) !!

Today's stage in the Tour de Pologne departs from Katowice (which I only know from Counterstrike tournaments) and heads south, skirting the city of Tychy where today's beer is made. Despite regal origins dating back to the early 17th century, this is now owned by the Dutch and is a mass-produced lager. It is one of the most popular Polish beers with a 20% market share. By comparison, Anheuser-Busch is at 34% in the United States (I do admit, when I drink beer at a restaurant, I do ask for a Stella Artois).

Tyskie ($3)

Pours a transparent golden color with white mousse, quickly fading. The nose is lightly hoppy, lightly sweet. The palate opens with sweet bread and finishes with light bitter hops.

Clean, fine. Not interesting. 

Photo avec le chien Bruxellois. He always has an interest whenever I open a beer.

It's strange because I've also heard about this online, but I've never been able to replicate it IRL. For me especially power above threshold is easiest with really high seated cadence – 105-110. In longer sweetspot/threshold efforts lower cadence out of saddle efforts at around 80rpm are fine every 5-10min so that the muscles get a bit of a break. But any higher power and the standing efforts get problematic, I just burn out from doing them and it's hard to get back into the seated rhythm.

There is a STRONG problem. Non-attention payers will be crushed in upcoming races.
 >>/35671/
Same for me. This is a vibe based competition, with a touch of insight from race log trends, team rosters and especially long term attention paying to race character and rider characteristics.
It makes me want to get that stupid ML/linear programming model up so it gets completely kwaked by a Rusbert or a Finnish rapist with a young child for whom attentionpaying is far down the importance list.

There is this once instance where on my shits tismbert is in front of Patjebert by a bit and on the official results Patjetbert is in front of tismbert just slightly which I am sure will go down well and I won't see all caps from a Spanish flag.

Dzień dobry and welcome to our last /WORLD TOUR WINE/ (bier) for the sensational Tour de Pologne !! We had action down to the wire this week, with another legendary performance from handsome man Brandon MCNULTY to take the stage and GC victory!

Today's beer is brewed just down the road from today's ITT in Wieliczka.

Okocim O.K. Beer ($3.59)

This is a Polish Pilsner, brewed by Okocim since 1945. Pours a light honey gold with fine white mousse which fades quickly. The nose is a bit flat - just the barest hint of grass and malt. The palate is clean, lightly sweet, pleasing grassy hops.

Just fine, well put together. The highlight of the beer is the can, which I really love. We had four (4) biers for the Tour de Pologne, none of which were really great, but none of which were bad (maybe that imperial stout was...)

Look out for another sensational edition of /WTW/ next weekend with the return of the much-lauded Hamburg CYCLASSICS race!

Vin for sure. German wine super underrated internationally. Then we bounce back to bier in Belgium, then should be wine for the rest of the year.

But I do need to source some reasonably priced Chinese wine, because all I can find in US is literally $300/btl and has shit reviews.

Official Statement on Filippo Baroncini's Medical Update from UAE CEO Mauro Gianetti 🎙️ 
"Unfortunately, Filippo Baroncini is being kept in an induced coma for his health.
It's not life-threatening - that's the most important thing.
He has some facial damage, injuries to his eyes, and also damage to a lung. He has two vertebrae broken as well.
At the moment he is stabilized, and we will transport him today to Italy.
If everything goes well, he will undergo surgery on his face and spine."

Me neither, barely had 8 hours of sleep the last 5 years. The gist of it is to try and do as much half-awake, low heart rate rest as much as possible while you can't sleep or can't get back to sleep.
You get back to life after a few hours during the day. Maybe you won't ride off on a tail of a whale until it happens.

> Belgische bondscoach ziet de volgende Pogacar en Vingegaard klaar staan in Seixas en Widar, die elkaar bestoken in Tour de l'Avenir

> Pauwels weet dat hij met de 19-jarige renner van Lotto goud in handen heeft, maar volgens de voormalig klimmer is er nog een 17-jarig supertalent dat binnenkort zijn neus aan het venster zal drukken. 'Seff Van Kerckhove heeft wel wat weg van een Seixas, alles welbeschouwd', zo looft hij de Belg die nu bij het onder-19-team van Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale rijdt. 'Hij is iemand met een veelbelovende toekomst, al is hij nog maar net begonnen. Wat hij al gepresteerd heeft, of het nu tijdrijden of bergop is... Het is echt van een superhoog niveau.' Schrijf die naam dus maar op. 

GREAT article where Widar is being compared to Seixas (lol) and both of them to Pogacar and Vingegaard (LOL). According to national coach Serge Pauwels. And then Serge Pauwels announces a new next Remco, always a great idea to start putting pressure on some 17-year old kid

‘paying agent’ is the legal entity that owns that team, it can be a number of things but any changes to it that would amount to buying a license would have to be done ‘with the agreement of the Professional Cycling Council.’ In short UCI gets to decide arbitrarily.

It's just that cycling teams change names and sponsors all the time. So all the Wanty riders will join Lotto and the legal entity of the team, let's call it Team Wanty, is now empty with no riders. Q36.5 takes over sponsoring of this legal entity, and all their runners will transfer from the old Q36.5 to 'Team Wanty', which will now be renamed 'Team Q36.5'. I think that is sort of how it works

they still have to fulfill all contract obligations, so they would have to reach a separate deal with all of their riders/sponsors. you can't just transfer from the 'old' team to the 'new' team unless everyone under contract at the 'old' team agrees to terms. afaik there is no process for this sort of thing, nor do I see why the UCI would have a specific process for it

Pauline has set a new standard. If others follow her example, it puts pressure on all cyclists. If you put on a jersey and are visibly proud that it’s too big, that sends a message. A teammate told me that Pauline measures her skinfold and then decides whether she can eat breakfast. As a fellow athlete, I admire her. As a physician, I worry. Is it truly harmless if the deficit is only short-lived? Where is the line between smart performance management and harm?”

alright so the skelly era that is now coming will further diminish interest in femme cycling because most of them are already not particularly attractive and almost all of them look like crippled goblins on the bike. If you turn the already very small, not particularly pretty ciclistas with their wide ass clown handlebars into female froomedawgs its over, you can't even goon to this anymore.
