Frosty

A reminder to plan your WFH days, with no meetings scheduled for the afternoon, as the Classics season hits its peak: Wed, 27/03 - Dwars door Vlaanderen Sun, 31/03 - Ronde van Vlaanderen Wed, 03/04 - Scheldeprijs Sun, 07/04 - Paris-Roubaix Wed, 10/04 - De Brabantse Pijl Sun, 14/04 - Amstel Gold Race Wed, 17/04 - La Flèche Wallonne Sun, 21/04 - Liège-Bastogne-Liège

Well done Lidl-Trek… played that one well.

No a Classic race, but it was nice to see Egan Bernal back on a podium (Volta Ciclista a Catalunya), even though it was a master class from Pogačar.

First long ride in 5 weeks, resulting in 72 hours recovery on the Garmin.

IMO, JP owes that win to MvdP closing the gap more than once.

Thinned out peloton on the Cipressa. Dog fight on the Poggio, and maybe the descent. I see Olav Kooij made it over the Cipressa. Wonder if he has enough for the Poggio?

Just over 2/3 of the route covered...

If this is p1ss poor,then I'd like to see a good quality?

This is the only scientific paper, the rest of the links are articles. I also don’t believe everything on a Google search. When I asked, it was because your comment stated scientific results. My knowledge of scientific literature is lacking, but I have some good resources to assist. This was more statistical and not very well controlled as an experiment.

Yes to 1) and 2) Where do you stay, or ride? There are safe places to ride (relatively speaking, of course). It you ride consistently in your "Z2" every week, you'll be amazed how "just riding" makes a big difference to your overall fitness. event 1) is 3.5 months before event 2) so if you training for 2), then you can use 1) as a practice event.

I would imagine the roads damaged during the rains last September (and any other similar freak of nature) would get priority over a road that only needs resurfacing.

Best you change your plans for tomorrow, as MSR is on tomorrow (Saturday). 😂😂 I’m using Rai tomorrow. https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/164472-the-classics/?do=findComment&comment=3954962

Have you got links to these studies?

When the chain stay separates from the BB, it will be between the two bosses. Then you can hold the chain stay and BB together with a plate.

@mecheng89 do you know who Action_Man is? Here's a clue edit: clearly winning the National Road Race champs in '11 doesn't rate as high as 2nd in '06.

It’s not showing as Kijk Live on Sporza, so I have to test my Kodi addon for the Eurosport option.

Doesn't feel like 13 years have passed; feels like just the other day.
