    I still don't understand why the UCI allows these sprint finishes that are oblique to the roadway & bend -- @5:45 you can see the barriers and roadway start to turn left 20 meters from the finish (from a racer's POV). Why not just move the finish earlier by 25-50 meters and have everything be straight?

    A long time ago, when I was an amateur I tried to follow "Ludo Dierckxsens" during one of his trainings. I was doing 400 watts 5,5 w/per kg in his wheel, he looked at me (smiling) and then he took off. Me pushing to 460 watts 6,4 w/per kg ( maximum effort for about 1 minute) and still he was gaining a bigger gap, if it was nothing. I literally, was totally exhausted and was barely making it back home. ( still 60 kilometers to ride) Then you realize, how hard it must be to become a Pro. Very, very hard.

    Pedersen had to touch brakes to get around Bennett, he might have been able to pick it off if he had chosen the right side. Which was the left side... But Bennett also moves really far to the right, and Mads would rightfully be worried about tangling with V-Pop on the left, so I can see why he did it. He might win the next one 🤞

    Berg means mountain, but since we don't have any mountains, the names of our hills usually end in "berg", even if it's not technically a visible height difference to the naked eye. So the Cauberg, Amerongse Berg, and VAM-berg are actually all hills (which we call heuvels). Amstel Gold Race is a heuvelklassieker, with a parcours over hills or heuvels like de Bergsche weg, Cauberg, Keutenberg, Hulsberg, Kruisberg, etc.. It's almost as baffling to a foreign visitor as two Brabants separated by an Antwerp, but that's how we roll here.

It didn't work out well. Same thing with running. I was a good runner. Did a 10k that had some Kenyan guys running. Nice guys. Decided I would run with them. I kept up with them for about 1/4 mile.

      @@danoontjeh123 My wife once told me I’m not smart enough for sarcasm, just bad tempered. 😂 Got to love an honest woman. Anyway, I made a comment yesterday about the LR podcast (but on the stage review) regarding Patrick’s comment about QS being up front with Remco. After all of Roglic’s crashes in the last 2 years, my take is that on a sprint run in, it’s actually safer for him (especially with all the big riders he has) to lead from the front. First, I hate all the tension leading up to a sprint with every team jockeying for position. Then if you fall back and there is a crash, at best you’re caught behind the peloton and lose time if outside the last 3 km (typically). Once inside the last 3 km, you’re still not safe since… chaos.
      It’s like descending a mountain, you’re safer if you can pick your own line. At least that’s my take. I’m not an expert, just ride a bike, follow the sport and marvel at fantastic athletes, although, I am an expert at falling down and getting hurt, which should count for something. 😂✌️

A rider on a time trial bike was riding on the other road and trying to stay with Argentin who was turning over a big gear in an average cadence sitting on 50k an hour. Stayed with him for around 200m and peeled off. Argentin just stayed focused. Think it might of been the tour where Casatelli died.
