MVDP in black bibs shocker #binckbanktour

I expect him to win both Fleche Wallonne and Binck Bank Tour this week, should be fun to watch!

Would have loved to see MVDP in today's race. Looking forward to the autumn classics!

All of Belgium pissed off at Roglic now

Perfect punch at the perfect time

A virtual penalty, nothing changes so is it a penalty? I imagine Borghini knew Van Vleuten was injured yet bumped her cast. Doesn't feel fair, although 'rules are rules'... call me chauvinistic but I would have loved to see Vos on #3, that would certainly have been te best podium ever.

plus failing gearchange in last 10k and already knowing he was having a bad day after 5 minutes he said in the post race interview

Has this been resolved yet?

Supermec

Van Vleuten underwent surgery last Friday but is positive about racing on Saturday, with a wrist brace. I really don't know what to think of this but her levels of determination are stellar.

There are CM's with eyelets, I own 2 ;-)

Tdl'A frames are made up of 3 531 tubes, the main triangle only. CM is full 531

Must be some other Roog? Rogier is from Dongen and has as far as I know always operated from his parents' back yard shed before he moved into a larger space in that same village

He's a better climber and time trialist, so

Bernal

I didn't get andyp's comment on this subject?

The problem was the damage done to crank & power meter, not the frame from what I gathered

Zeeman says he lost it when the UCI official insisted on disassembling the bracket of Roglic' bike himself and consequently damaged it at the inspection

I think I can understand his feelings.

What a day for Jumbo Visma. DS Merijn Zeeman apparently has been using foul language and intimidated a UCI official at the bike checks on Wednesday, was fined 2000CHF and expelled from the TdF. Wow. And even the great WVA needs a car tow now and then to get back to his fellow climbers and GC contenders.

Slowest photo finish ever?

always a risk of bump-pssshhhhhhhhhhhhh* though...

The descent of the Cormet de Roseland proved spectacular at a couple of occasions though

It's a tarmac'd 'blue' ski slope... madness. Any rider that's having a bad day will lose minutes.

Thanks. Indeed, it was strange to see him riding in the sprinters' bus. Won't expect to see him out front on the Col de la Loze then...

The interview with Bernal on the ITV4 highlights was very sad. He's in a lot of pain and not very happy.

Not at all the impression I got from a short post race interview with Dutch media, nor from his behaviour on camera during the stage. Stef Clement (ex pro now race analyst) wanted to speak to Servais Knaven (Ineos DS) about Bernal's condition but was denied contact. I would have thought they could have just confirmed any physical problems. I guess we will know for sure this afternoon.

ridiculous

all-out war to form a break and several big names (maybe even from Jumbo Visma) looking to upset things
