well yes, I fell for it. it's not like it was an important ciclismo day. And yes the Tour du Limousin-Périgord - Nouvelle Aquitaine means nothing to me.

somehow I thought he had more gc stage wins or something, its like his results get worse every time I check his pcs page

those were the days, when all you needed to do to win a TDF stage was beat boasson hagen and taco van der hoorn in a sprint a deux or whatever black magic plot armor HOULE hexed the peloton with. 2022 had a lot of wacky break wins,

he's getting back into shape the last 2 years, wouldn't surprise me if he actually peaks for those italian races to boos tudor high enough to buy that wanty license

> to boos tudor high enough to buy that wanty license
Will be interesting to see what UCI does with that extra license. Tudor and Q36.5 are 10k points down from Uno-X and Cofidis so if it's simply handed out to the next team in the rankings it wont be those. But if it can be sold to the highest bidder because it's a special case separate from the relegation system then those mountain jew teams probably have the money for it.

here's to hope that lidl tells deutscherland tour that they want to send a climber next year so they stop making the most boring fucking flat races for milan to farm

Listen I know I said there was going to a /wtw/ surprise this week, but I have thought about it further. I had ordered a little collection of Spatburgunder for ADAC Cyclassics and it didn't arrive until today. I was going to post on one of the bottles (so essentially having two wines for the ADAC Cyclassics), but have decided against it. /wtw/ should be posted when appropriate, not willy-nilly. In this same vein, I also have some Czech "beer" which I will not be discussing any further, regardless of histrionics and protests.

Bert was right, the Renewi Tour parcour looks much better than last year
Is this the race where the was that prologo on a narrow bike path next to a canal (i think ska went wide in one corner too) or was it a different belgian race

Shame, another good squaker career over before it began
Anyway how was your morning ride berts? For me it was some suprathreshold work. Just not my strong suit I guess, I have no problem doing 3-5min intervals at high watts but these 8-10min intervals just suck the life out of me. HR is fine, breathing is fine, but pushing the power just becomes increasingly difficult. Much prefer ftp and sweetspot over this stuff, bleh













> In his build-up and preparation towards the Vuelta a España Max Poole wasn’t reacting positively to training. Things worsened at the recent Tour de Pologne and he left the race on medical grounds to investigate the potential cause. The results of these investigations have concluded that Max is suffering from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and he is therefore unable to train or race for the upcoming period.







> KRIJNSEN Jelte in the tete
will he activate his late season dopage again. he's been bretty shit this year and i just assumed he went clean














 >>/37520/
> bertiol, kubis, de lie
This will go very well or very bad.
Also, strange deja vu I am having now, a deja vu of a deja vu because I have already experienced this moment, writing this post, and already then though this is a deja vu.


 >>/37522/
pour moi de lie was the easiest pick because he [hypothetically] provides value across all five etapes. ofc he can revert to de calf at any moment but thats a risk you have to take.




 >>/37524/
If you get a Hamburg De Lie this is good, if you get a labile De Lie this is a 20 point hole.
I have decided to pay premium for non-labile Grug, as he is giving a shit every race this year. He is not going to skor on first two but I also don't think you're getting more than a total 100 from De Lie on these two.

On the other hand this pure goomble and with my luck Grug is not feeling right and De Lie is on fire.









 >>/37534/
reminder that pros recover from stuff like pneumonia and broken collarbone within 3-7 days and as a matter of fact the more damage they received the stronger they come back. Vingo in 2024 and Abrahamsen in 2025 proved this so its fact






































Dillier looks like he took a sip from the same bidon as his sick team mates. pas normal that he's at the back of the pedalton instead of pulling it.






























 >>/37603/
yeah really pointless, same with the tour
imo to achieve what velobert wants to achieve I would increase the cost by so much that you can only pick garbage if you go pick those guys so its a choice between picking the gc lords or picking more lower tier riders that could score big

> . I'm optimistic for the Vuelta, but we have to have feet right on the ground. I trained two and a half weeks without limitations [after the fall]... it’s little. Obviously, I have a season behind, but a stop of ten days, without training, without a bike, without doing anything. Of course the body resents. However, I am in a good, acceptable form, I feel good on the bike. I hope to grow, week after week. I think we can be optimistic, even if always with our feet based on the ground, as I have said, and focused on the important, which is in the race. And save me to the max.


 >>/37669/
I have insider knowledge about almeida because mou complained about him being healthy and back to training like 3 days after he dropped out of the tour 
but I'm not going to tell you about that



 >>/37673/
he commented on an article whereby almeida said he was already feeling way better and is back to training while the tour was still on so this time its real 
Almeida is at 110%

> For the speculators among us: no, Van Aert will not be racing the World Championships in Gravel on October 12th in South Limburg, the Netherlands, either. "I would love to. But the date is very late. We've looked into it, but... part of our plan is to finish the season very early and get some rest a bit sooner."

> In order to, and here's the catch: "hopefully have a good winter." This is open to interpretation. Is Van Aert referring purely to his training schedule? Or is there a more extensive cyclocross program in the works? To be continued, no doubt.

this guy is such a obedient drone how can anyone like him

Well we begin another mildly-anticipated .UWT race and today we begin in the Netherlands for this otherwise Flandrian Renewi Tour. This mean it's time for another sensational edition of /WORLD TOUR WINE/ (bier) !!

Today's bier is in firm Flandrian soil, brewed in Evergem just a few km south of Dutch border. It states the secondary fermentation is done with a wine yeast (no idea what benefit this provides....) so I guess that fits with our overall gimmick theme.

Gulden Draak Classic Tripel ($10)

Pours a gorgeous transparent auburn with cream mousse, long-lasting. Nose is yeasty with bread, light banana, funky fruit and clove. Palate is sweet malt and fruit, pleasant bitter hops, light spice, a little lingering sweetness to the finish. Carbonation really lifts the 10.5% alcohol.

Very surprised how much I liked this, did not expect much. Very good.




 >>/37746/
always forget renewi tour is WT. the idea of analyzing bier like a sommelier is very funny to me, im imagining one of those youtube winehacks sniffing some proper hooch and its a silly image

 >>/37750/
It's less of a production than wine. No decanting, no slurping. Just pop and pour. Give it a sniff or two, give it a few tastes and write what I think. 

To be honest, I use beer a lot to help teach wine tasting to people. Even casual beer drinkers can discuss difference between a lager, IPA, and Guinness.
