About 1 or 2 k into it you could see some shit was going down. Fair enough. I still think that performance is suspicious, but I could be wrong and I understand others won’t agree with me.
July 19, 20232 yr 19 minutes ago, Horn Dogg said: WVA has about 30-40 lbs on Jonas and is a 3X world cyclocross champion. Being on the same team and being a guy that likes to win TdF TT’s, I’m sure he did the same level of recon. And being on the same team as Jonas, you'd think he'd have the same supplier. So....Jonas is doping without team help....Wout refuses to dope....the only one doping is @Horn Dogg?

July 19, 20232 yr Pogo just took out the earpiece. He doesn't want to hear how far ahead Vingo is. One minute between them with 11 kilometers left. It looks like Yates MIGHT catch Gall.
July 19, 20232 yr Damn, Pogacar all over the bike. That’s too bad. Really wanted to see a battle on this monster. Maybe we’ll a race to the summit and another to the finish.
July 19, 20232 yr 1 minute ago, G650 said: Looks like Jonas might catch em both lol. I think it's going to be close but JV will not catch Gall. When's the last time a team had two riders on the podium?
July 19, 20232 yr Cycling Dane just said that race radio just reported that Tadej told his team that he's cooked and that they should fight for Yates now. Wow. Will Yates catch Gall?

Not uncommon in the super team era to have multiple riders on the podium. Sky did it a couple times I think. Astana did it in 2009

July 19, 20232 yr 4 minutes ago, Horn Dogg said: Those fans almost knocked Jonas off with that push. They need to keep fans off the roads on the mountains. Maybe just a very small set number for flavor. Make each fan sign a statement that they'll be criminally liable if they interfere with the race.
July 19, 20232 yr Bilbao is so good at sneaking up high in the GC. Taking a free ride from Jonas now.
July 19, 20232 yr Great ride by Gall. The Queen stage. All of these guys Bilbao, Yates etc ... are going to put big time into their rivals. Hindley must have lost several places.
July 19, 20232 yr Tadej .. wow. To crack like that. Down 7:35 now to Jonas. Tour over ... and like this. Several of TJ's teammates going around him. Only a crash can take JV out now.

July 19, 20232 yr I guess that’s the best way he could get some attention since he can no longer go on extended tv attacks and suffer for the cameras.
July 20, 20232 yr Wow. That will do it, barring something completely unfortunate. Hard to see Pog like that, but every cyclist has been there, though perhaps not THERE. He had me convinced that he was up to the challenge for two solid weeks. I wish he had been in top condition so we could have taken this battle all the way to Paris.

I felt Pog needed to basically cut the lead in half on this stage and all Jonas did was bury him. But Pog probably wasn't completely ready for the Tour this year. With those two, it's whoever is highest in the climber category. That's going to be the winner. Barring disaster, the tour belongs to Jonas.

I'll give him a pass because he is having a kid, and likely was not as focused as he otherwise might have been. He did not seem on his A game all tour, and can be selfish at times, but he wants to win as much as anyone. He's another one of those riders who can do a bit of everything, and just loves to compete.
July 20, 20232 yr He's going to drive his wife to the hospital and let Sepp Kuss take over from there.

He’s been a level down all year. The only race I can think of that he dominated was Gent Wevelgem and he gifted it to LaPorte.
July 20, 20232 yr I know nothing about cycling, but Lawson Craddock is my backyard neighbor and a really nice guy. Was really sad to see him get injured a few years ago and really happy to see he's racing again this year.
July 20, 20232 yr On 7/18/2023 at 11:53 AM, Horn Dogg said: Agreed. And we have someone as unlikeable as Froome in yellow. Sure Vingegaard looks like a cover model for Punchable Face Quarterly, but he seems like a nice guy/husband/father/teammate who it just so happens was cursed with fish lips.

I don't understand the JV hate, either. Amazing to see the breakaway succeed today. Asgreen has to be one tired mofo.
