Loving Africa Chaps: Dec 3, 2007; We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Looking forward to quintana and valverde attacking each other today

Uran, Roche, Carthy, de la Porte have all retired after a crash. Tony Martin is currently looking like he's riding with assless chaps

I feel so bad for them.

Why do the commentators still doggedly insist quintana and valverde are working together? Has that ever been true?

Roglic looked good and he's got the stronger team. Should be some good battles in the mountains

Roglic is brutally owning everyone, pogacar flying and quintana is shipping huge amounts of time

Watched stage 13 and that has to be one of the most brutal climbs I've seen. Looked absolutely horrible. God bless la vuelta

I guess landing in a pond ment it didn't hurt as much. 1st one is absolutely the result of a super aggressive TT position that doesn't let them see the road ahead.

Rohan Dennis just openly riding a BMC bike now

whats the deal with equipment when you're riding in national teams? are you supposed to stick with your team stuff?

Looks like he's got a team BMC helmet on too

Seems pretty win-win from his point of view.

Well the flipside is if you're going to sign him you're taking the risk on of your star riders is going to storm out of a race because he doesn't like the sponsor you had to take to keep your team going

The UCI should supply black rain capes with country flags on them for all the teams. It's dumb having a mix of national and club kit

Alternatively: make them race in the kit of their home cycling club

too many people have dropped out. just doesn't have the speed advantage they'd have if everyone hadn't said gently caress this and gone to the pub

This has it that he had an offer from CCC but he felt it was too low. Probably going to be even lower now he's a free agent
