@idealust I’ve moved 50%> of 401k to an ex-US fund (VXUS) as I believe there is more upside with the games being played with US economy rn. It’s outperformed the S&P over last couple years. This reduces exposure to SPCX as well

@Musette_CC @Cyclingnewsfeed @cyclist @rouleur @BicyclingMag I’ll miss you guys, I remember when the shop first opened, so it’s cool to see how much it’s grown. Maybe see you more out on rides now

@ktarheel @lucasaganronald Tiz Cycling machine go brrr

@vismaleaseabike @WoutvanAert My 🤴, so sad. I’m sure he’ll only come back stronger and more motivated for more important objectives later. Wishing a fast recovery

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@BenjiNaesen I think more open this year than most years. If Paul Magnier is going he might be favorite. Wouldn’t count out Laporte-Wout combo either

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald I don’t see it as so black and white. He obviously wants Pidcock’s draft so he moves left into it. Anyone would have done the same. There seems to be contact with Van Gils but I think it’s pretty subtle and likely unintentional but bad awareness

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald NSN rider had no business pulling off then trying to play interference in the middle of the sprint. Would be happy with yellow card for him and Lotto (De Lie?) for the over aggressive shoulder budge

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald Also relevant to add Bernal and Froome to examples where a bad accident derailed their career

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald I agree 💯 here. There’s a world where Tadej/Jonas and MVDP/Wout swap luck with injuries and their palmares look totally different. No discredit to them and their successes

@wildtiktokss That’s not a doctor it’s a chatbot. They make money off your data and offer the same information a 2 minute google search would

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

@SenateGOP The bill must be titled "Working Families Tax Cut" because that's whose paying for it

Boomers being the wealthiest generation ever to exist and giving themselves more tax cuts at the expense of the actual working class is sickening

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald I hate this stuff so much. If riders have ANY credible evidence people are doping they should name riders, teams, coaches, etc. @UCI_cycling and WADA should be following up with every single one of these statements. Otherwise these people are doing damage to the sport for no good

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@MichaelDell @jpmorgan Holy hellscape

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald Why is Healy on this list at all two stage wins all year? Jonas Abrahamsen has more wins including TdF. I think Milan has had a more impressive year. Even Wout winning in multiple grand tours is more impressive

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@Domestique___ How are Tadej and Del Torro not nominated?

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@RyanDuff99 No one hates the French like the French. These two teams are big rivals. They would almost (and today, indeed) rather lose the race themselves then see the other team win. When one of them stopped working together b/c he thought the other a better sprinter, it was over for them

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@lucasaganronald This race was lost as much as it was won. But I love to see it.

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@Roadman_Podcast Whole lot of words. Rapha is owned by private equity who want to make it profitable. It’s just that simple. EF have already moved onto Assos who make far superior kit anyhow

[Alex Kellum @alexkellum]

@unclecycling The connection was ADAMS the antidoping thing that Jonas skipped—brought up by you. And the (baseless) mention of CO2 rebreathing machines that Gee might have used because the owner of IPT was rich—also, brought up by you. I didn’t change the subject, I called you out on your bs
