🇬🇧 Cat Ferguson calls for better U23 pathways in women’s cycling

"There are no examples where you can look of girls who have gone to a good U23 team and raced lots of U23 aces and not being just completely thrown into a WT race on an U23 team"

A Jimmy Olsen series titled, 'DC Crime' is in the works at HBO Max.

The fictional true crime series will reportedly focus on Gorilla Grodd in its first season.

'American Vandal' creators Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda will write, executive produce, and serve as showrunners.

Isn’t it up to other riders to step up to the game?

Dominance is only because they are not

They can, even if it means making temporary alliances; ie ganging up against him
I am unable to watch Il Lombardia today due to being at work.

However, I don't know what the point would be anyway as Pogačar 🇸🇮 is going to win again, likely solo from a pong way out.

At least when Froome and Contador were dominating they didn't win absolutely everything!! (I do not dislike Tadej)

Bike change for Küng! There goes the chance for the Swiss team to take the gold. Same bad luck as in the Worlds for Switzerland.

Verder is dit ook de consequentie als je als wielerbond doet alsof het volkomen normaal is dat er een team meerijdt dat reclame maakt voor een land waar kinderen worden uitgehongerd.

Reviewing the crash, I don't think anyone was at fault there. Milan moves right a tiny bit, forcing Coquard to jerk right, which bounces him into Rex and back into Philipsen. I don't think anyone in that chain made an unreasonable decision. Just a really really sucky incident...

Ik onderschrijf volledig dat we de inwoners van Israël niet gelijk moeten schakelen met de misdadige leider van dat land. Maar kan iemand me uitleggen waarom dat wel mag met de inwoners van Palestina en Iran?

It's actually not that big of a time gap. It might be an exciting Tour after all.
