    My take is that it's a 2001 Master with the LX14 (not custom) paint job. The Chorus groupset is much newer than that. It has the four sided tubing and a straight fork. She is also riding Speedplay pedals 😍 This is the kind of bike that "the boss" gives to me to tune up or overhaul, as I really...

    Watching the peloton - Professional Road Racing thread 2026

    I was able to watch this in the car while traveling. Once more teams other than Visma got on the front, that break was toast, and the race was on. All the remaining contenders were right there, and Jonas rides away again. Remco is starting to remind me of Ayuso, and not in a good way. I hope...

    The announcer kept saying over and over, "where is Pidcock", but no camera angle would reveal him. He called back to his team car, who also did not know. You guys may not realize this, but team cars don't have free reign to move about the road. The movement of race vehicles is controlled by the...

    Has your shop rebuilt the rear caliper? I can't remember. If so, what did they find, if anything? You have some options for flat mount rear calipers. What kind of levers are on the bars?

    There were total audio blackouts for minutes on the live HBO Max broadcast.

    It went from a mountaintop finish to a hilly city sprint finish. Who would you suggest that Visma set up for the win against Godon? Jonas would have no chance. Piganzoli? Maybe, but he's not strategic. Visma is not there for stage wins. They were past 3km to go, so they just had to finish with...

    8oz is about 4oz too much.

    I think everybody needs a break. Congrats to Vernon, nice positioning. Pidcock was there as well, picking up more time. MAP led the whole group out and then got swallowed up. They've got to work on that.

    They just mentioned this. The course map has been updated. I'm bummed as this is probably the toughest climbing stage in the race.

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    That's exactly what happened to me, but I got a tour of the holding cell.

    Odd mapping omission in Specialized app [SOLVED]

    I've made it a habit to hit (not hold) the power button before I put it in my pocket.

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    In most states, Juvies have to be separated from adults. I'm talking about minutes to a few hours until Mom and Dad can pick them up. The local police station, not a SuperMax.

    Remco said that he hit an unmarked pothole while switching to the drops. I wish some intrepid cycling fan would search for it. Jonas admitted that he was using tactics, he just didn't say when. I could see with my own eyes that he was smoked after chasing onto Remco's wheel. It looked to me...

    From Cycling Weekly: "To be honest I don't know, he just went over the handlebars and I just hope he's ok," Vingegaard said when asked what happened post-race on TNT Sports. "It looked really crazy, and I hope he's ok. "I didn't want to take advantage of a situation like that so I decided at...

    15 minutes before Remco attacked, the commentator was answering fan mail. Visma and Red Bull put on a blocking and covering clinic, until Ineos and UAE made it to the front , UAE to protect Almaeida, and Ineos to protect Godon.

    Unbelievable finish to a stage that should have had the contenders in the break, but did not. Shortly after they were caught, with 28km to go, Remco decides he wants to go. He gets clear, and the only rider who was able to bridge was Jonas, who was clearly gassed from the effort and did not pull...
