@faustocoppi60 Sorry I disagree. Such a decision would make a complete mockery of the regulations and every compliant piece of equipment in the peloton. These regulations are not secret after all...
@LucGrefte In other high performance sports, you can prove that missing parts would've allowed a piece of equipment to be legal - such as in F1, if you have damage in a crash and lose part of the body work, you bring an equivalent part to the scrutineers and prove compliance post-race.
@patrol5513@bowtiedstocks The Australian dream. Walking in to CBA with your financials..."give me as much as you're willing to loan. Plus a little more."
@chrisbrycki Of course they haven't modelled worldwide shares. Either deliberately to obfuscate the truth, or by design because they have truly no idea how so many under 40 build long term wealth when property is viewed as unattainable.
Waiting impatiently for @LanterneRougeYT AlUla Stage 1 video to drop. Can't wait for the take on UAE shenanigans and UCI regs implemented strictly....right...??
And a bonus Cofidis leadout. Middle East racing is truly the best. #AlUlaTour
@BenjiNaesen ...surely anger in such a chat should be directed at the failure of La Vuelta/ASO to effectively secure and provide a safe race for all riders? And not singling out your professional colleagues to leave the race?
@BenjiNaesen If this was sporting related the other riders may have a point, but it's simply not. They are entitled to their opinions of course on the sad situation in Israel/Gaza, but the apparent lack of professional comradery is pretty poor...
@GreenEDGEteam So, so, so good. Amazing work Ben and the team, you never gave up and we never lost the faith. Such grit and determination since the events of stage 1. Go Australia, go @GreenEDGEteam, go Ben...chapeau!!!
@NairoInGreen Riding threshold watts and a smoke bomb in your face?
Organisers are slammed (rightly) most days for unsafe parcours, it would be hypocritical to say this isn't the right call.
@KPolanc1 What's the problem? Teams are forced to travel to more races now and it makes sense to reward them, especially relatively minor one-day races.
@mou55981652 If what you say is true, I don't think you can blame DS. They have jobs, families to provide for, bills to pay.
If it is true that Matxin is the tactical clown, then it's a poor reflection on him that he still goes in the car.
The best managers know when to trust their own people
@shoes_five@DanDeakins@tornanti_cc Absolutely. If we could have this stage again, but have an extra camera with WvA climbing the Finestre solo. You'd never do it as the TV director in advance, but knowing what we know now...it would be amazing to watch back.
