  1. I saw the humour in it, when I saw it on IG. Nothing sinister there, but just someone who likes to show he’s enjoying his time as a pro.
  2. Signs arranged, and paid for, by a former hubber… ShaunH
  3. I can guess a few possible reasons: Perennial winners are often not liked, in a number of sports, because it makes the outcome more predictable. The way someone does something, eg. Team Sky were known for riding as a team up the mountains, dropping everyone along the way; a very boring way of riding, but it was successful for them. Perhaps it’s the way Pogačar attacks and make it look beyond realistic. Not sure if he comes across as arrogant; not the bully type arrogance, like LA did, but like he only has to start to be sure of winning. But I guess it would be easier if the person actually said why they dislike him, then we wouldn’t have to guess.
  4. Maybe Louis or Bini will ride a little faster tomorrow. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9mpWqqMQKS/?igsh=MTZzZGZqb2xpbDZhcA==
  5. Especially if you saw how some of them were putting their dirty, sweaty paws into the same packet. 😂 https://sporza.be/nl/matches/wielrennen/tour-de-france/2024/tour-de-france-2024-rit-18-live-tour-grote-kopgroep-van-36-renners-scheurt-zich-los-van-aert-campenaerts-en-cras-mee-voorin~1694691604334/
  6. Mmm, M&Ms being dished out in the peloton.
  7. Clearly a lot of people don’t know how to manage fatigue, both chronic and acute.
  8. People were queuing to get in last weekend, when we rode passed the road to the main entrance gate.
  9. This site allows you to join fit files together. There are limits for non-subscribers, but you should be able to merge HR to MyWhoosh data. https://gotoes.org/strava/Combine_GPX_TCX_FIT_Files.php
  10. Solid headwind for me 😁
  11. It has been discussed previously that the app is a crapp one, and that the cache needs to be cleared; at least for a device like the MiBox (low processing power.
  12. So of the people having issues with the DStv app, what device is this on? Laptop, Android box, Apple TV, the Smart TV.
  13. Lunch ride yesterday, with what felt like a never-ending head wind. Asked the family to meet me for “coffee” at noon… R400 later
  14. No such blank screen problems using Sporza; heck, they even have subtitles which helps with certain words/phrases that I might not comprehend. The only real problem is that they disabled screenshots (black screen).
  15. Here it is… my phone is listening to me 😊😂 https://x.com/robynjournalist/status/1812507988206219669
  16. I think Cavendish asked him not to win so much. I may have seen it on an Instagram reel/post.
  17. It didn't know that the Oos Rand (general road conditions) has vineyards and mountains... 🤪 Seriously though... looks like fun "off-road"
  18. Some aloe vera gel works well to ensure a good connection between (dry winter) skin and HRM strap. Rinse off when back home and repeat the next time. Never missed a beat (pun intended).
  19. Sporza and a YT channel
  20. Running a bike shop, called , Stars n Biles, but he denies being Motoman.
  21. Given that I have only done endurance rides with Eddie, Cyril and Anna, my FTP and CP is (well) below my current level. The VO2 value is the same as Garmin, again without having done any work above (real) threshold. Compared to a lab tested value, it’s well below that value too.
  22. Back in the early 2000s, I played action cricket with games scheduled for 22:00 only starting at 23:00. So that means getting home after midnight. Getting to sleep wasn’t hard but the duration and quality wasn’t so good.
  23. Haven't watched the stage, but know the result, and can only comment based on comments I've read/heard. If today was a "bad" day for Pog, and he only lost 1s to Jonas (time bonuses), then it's as good as a win. It's not as one-sided as some comments have said it would be.
  24. Didn’t look as bad from above, as it did from the front. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9NBjGCsAzT/?igsh=ZGtwbW9wMjN3M29t
