I don't know what brought you together, or held you there, but thanks for being so different from each other and for being a model for a successful marriage, sadly ended too soon. (#sworry. That's just one run-on sentence.)

Adding: the maritimes are islands, and the people speak broken English. Could I hide some cash there? Backing an online gambling site? I am a big believer in Cape Breton converting itself into a dependency and becoming a North American financial ha…

Take pictures of Jens Voigt, please Make a #sworry Legs poster and have him hold it up!

Can I run a GoFundMe to fund my Fantasy Triathlon activities? Can we post obscure third tier Asian age group races to gamble on, like you can in futball?

Comparison of Froome's stage 19 attack with other long range attacks by GC riders at recent grand tours Schleck 2011 Tour Contador 2012 Vuelta Quintana 2014 Giro Aru 2015 Giro Nibali 2015 Tour Quintana 2016 Vuelta Froome 2018 Giro That Contador…

Best part? The camera catching Poels laughing beside a dying Pozzovivo near the top of the Finistre, knowing Froome just got on the podium. The Italian police should really give Poels a breathalyzer. Laughing on the Finestre, and riding the wrong w…

Entering the phrase un jour sans in Google will now and evermore show a single result: Yates today. And the C*F* ride will either go down in history with Contador's Vuelta attack and Nibali's Giro attack, or Floyd's romp through the mountains of Fr…

I'm going to curse this just to make the rest of the week interesting: "And after the TT, your Giro podium is Yates, Dumoulin in second (which, considering the scant amount of TT kms this year is impressive...), and Pozzovivo on the bottom step." …

Half of the UAE team was popped for drafting today. But Italian Champion Aru was nailed for allegedly drafting off an Italian police moto in the Giro d'Italia. The 20 second penalty puts him something like 24:40 behind Yates rather than 24:20. Tak…

Things you don't expect to read in a cyclingnews live feed of a flat TT: Chris Froome drives to the line. He manages to beat Fabio Aru's time by two seconds. Right, makes sense now: "Giro d'Italia: Aru penalised 20 seconds for drafting"

What the hell. That was a crazy first two hours considering they climbed Zoncolan yesterday. Nice if futile effort by Woods with 70 to go, but he put Aru to the sword and pretty much shattered the field. Yates is remarkable. It would be nice if he…
-
Nothing like seeing the best riders in the world going 7 km/h. Zoncolan is horrible. Guys were riding 34-32 gearing and suffering. Slopes hit 20%. Yates took more time today. But sure if it will be enough. Dumoulin impressive to not lose more time…
-
OK, C*F* is out of this, barring a Contador-style solo breakaway that no one can bring back. It's not out of the question for week 3, but it's not very likely. Dumoulin showed a tonne of class today. Yates barely edged him at the line, and there wa…
-
Yates and Chaves need huge buffers going into the TT. Neither of them are very good against the clock. It's a three week race, and the tough stuff is yet to come. C* F* has lots of time to recover, and he's probably the only GC guy that can touch D…
-
Well, Viviani didn't win today. That was surprising, but nice to see Bennett win at a GT. With Sagan likely to grab a stage or two in Cali, it should be a big week for Bora. Another mountaintop finish tomorrow. The hill itself is not devastatingly…

@Eric Lagerstrom I'm delinquent and hadn't seen all of your stuff. I had really liked the Wurtele morning video, and those two are great. You are right on about the need for a backer. Maybe someday Nike can get serious about triathlon and throw th…

I found the article on the 19th place age grouper more compelling.

Someone needs to make the Bones Brigade "Propaganda" of triathlon videos. Great segments, great music, a bit of comedy. This video is great, but it would be cool to get a bit more personality in it.
-
Huh. I always wondered if Yates could put one together on a key day. Chaves getting into the break was the move of the day, but good on Yates to put that much time into that group in 1.4 km. Gaps in the top 20 are still pretty small. CF* showed som…

Just found this band today. Atmospheric black metal with a hint of folk. Quite good! https://wiltmanitoba.bandcamp.com/album/ruin "Inspired by Cormac McCarthy's The Road " Nice.

First two stages in Sicily in the bag. Two different Lotto teams, two wins. Classics-Type finishes, Classics-like top tens. Pozzovivo still impressive. Woods hanging in there. C* F* dropping time like he dropped his inhaler. The top 10 will firm u…

I did not realize a rooster was organizing this race. @AaronWebstey - road trip? Maritime roosters - if you road trip, message me. Might pop out for it if I can find a bike to use and can bum a lift from you guys.
