first for break wins

Record time for my escape from the last thread

c'mooooon give the break some motopacing

honestly some juicy chutes is about the only entertainment we could get out of this stage
alright the sprint teams may still chute but its not the same if there's no gc on the line

Kubis reduced to some chasing jobber

I think we're almost guaranteed some juicy chutes

> hyping up the break

I hope the break makes it, nothing brings me more joy seeing teams like FDJ sit there with 5 leadouts not able to sprint

Is Picnic PostNL in this race

 >>/88498/
who?

organizers should do a tour de hongrie and declare the 5km mark also the finish line of the race

 >>/88496/
I'm starting to believe

Ganna hasn't even been deployed yet. He can probably pull 20 seconds back by himself

quick step didn't waste their helpers until the very end.

> neutralizes the stage 
> still in the peleton
insulting kinda

Lol @ EF Education rider whiffing on multiple bidons

at some point the break will start playing around and lose 20 seconds
that dversnes dude can actually sprint a little so he'll be the first

What Bert says, airfryer is just fancy word for a plain old oven but small, which you can also put on the countertop.
You can have extras like a grill or even space for pellet thus kinda bbqing.

love my air fryer, for simple food it's just so fast and good
probably doesn't help my normal oven is ass

this team is too fishy and there's something illegal going on, bust them

 >>/88718/
yes
rear already got replaced last year because it ceased to exist (so after some 40k)

 >>/88723/
Malawibert probably did. He always likes my jokes

 >>/88726/
I'm sure he is looking forward for you to finally make one

ah okay well I guess for front shifting its not that impossible after all- > RD cable died after 40k
I talked to some trusted oldfags and ancientfags irl about this and they said that back in the day with shifters that had cables exist like so getting 15-20k out of a rear cable was not unheard of especially when you rode terrain with reduced shift frequency (flat or long climbs) but they all deemed that impossible after that got changed. One of them still rides mechanical and he gets 7-10k per rear cable but we also have to shift very frequently all ride here.

my googling said 2-3 years, sometimes more
my average ride looks like this, i switch gears frequently
my childhood Favorit I still have at one of my summerhouse's will have a cable that still works after all these years, probably, but it is the old shifting on the frame

 >>/88728/
how hard can it be to make some titanium cables that work forever anyway

Of course, there is no extra 90° bend to the shifting.
I even bend my own "brake retraction coil spring" after it broke, as there are no parts available anymore for my coffee ride bike with DA 7400.
Wait, I got some pics somewhere...

Not a bad little race actually

what's so epic about the port of Antwerpen besides the huge amount of cocaine it imports to Europe?

There's a little 500 meters long stretch of proper gravel on one of me BIG rides
And I really really enjoying riding it
Bombing it, even
Pushing watts on gravel feels more fun than on road for some reason

 >>/88743/
I enjoy it as well. I always LARP as Grug and start pushing big watts to the point I'm floating over the gravel

 >>/88743/
why use that squeaker, most people here ride gravel

 >>/88743/
I am bombing any and every gobble section I run into, especially when I deliberately run into one.
If I find myself in gravel, same story, but I am not trying to run into one.

 >>/88745/
I only do with my dad when I visit home (he exclusively rides gravel in a Gall-esque position with mirrors on his handlebars and helmet, riding an $8k Specialized gravel bike that he doesn't maintain at all, up to the point of asking me what the purpose of oiling the chain was)

 >>/88743/
It's 2026 unc, everybody has been ridding gravel for 5 years.

Alexis Renard is in really good shape, closed that gap nicely
meanwhile merlel's goons not gaining a second

There were always "Gravel" sections, just the meme word didn't exist.

 >>/88743/
for me its the other way around I prefer pushing watts on road and feel like pushing watts on gravel is unrewarding 
haven't been riding much gravel the past month but I'll probably pick that up now

untrue statement I encounter too many cars of various kinds on gravel

Just mount 30+ mm tires, that's why.

you are like the guys who always rode 28+ tires with lower pressure because it was better but that got them laughed at by the sillies on 23s and 25s and now they all ride at least 28s and call 23s lunacy
you were too right too early

 >>/88760/
I don't know how they get there but some time ago I encountered a van slowly driving through the woods at a point that was at least 5k away from the nearest road
I also encounter motorbikes and quads frequently and they are so fucking annoying

 >>/88758/
Didn't you have the meme spezialized gravel with front suspension with 25mms tyre to ride exclusively on road, though?

 >>/88762/
 >>/88760/
I also get some retarded quads and motorcross on fire roads that are explicitly forbidden to motorized vehicles. And hunters of course but these people basically own the entire region they can do whatever they want

This is a hilarious finale in Antwerp. Every rider attacking

it was this one
eventually I did put normal road tires on it and only rode road

 >>/88780/
It's almost an OK bike, but that meme suspension fork is insane

 >>/88780/
you would expect a gravel bike being able to cope with a chute.

 >>/88781/
I wonder how easy is it to maintain, but I already know the answer
 >>/88782/
not when a boomer with his 30kg e-bike falls on you
