  1. Its a good group. be nice to see Bennett or Ulissi do something spicy. Obv not overall, but make the break work today. Or Niv, shame, there's not many ISN peeps left.
  2. At what point does a breakaway become so big its just 'the peloton'? (*apply non-available font)
  3. It looked bad from the above camera shot. Medics, ambulances, even the stretcher was out - usually precautionary but gives me chills every time I see it. Also missed the actual crash though
  4. Hub changes, pictures changes, there's too much going on....
  5. Felt almost caught off-guard reading the driver remained at the scene. I'm almost happy about that. But yoh, tough story, no winners here.
  6. Anything here? Mobile site has also regressed to only showing selected topics.
  7. He's running a 200 miler. Tracker - https://tracking.sportraxs.com/m/264/531/leaderboard
  8. I was thinking about this just now. 4 of the top 5 overall are 'young' riders. Maybe the young age needs to be lowered? It seems these chaps are the 'right' age. I was also wondering about the KOM jersey. Is this still a thing? I'm sure I remember long ago when I first started watching cycling there was actual racing for the KOM jerseys. Now days it just seems ubiquitous the overall leader will probably win it, and other days its nice for someone in the breakaway to gain a couple extra bucks.
  9. Its that same(or the original) beautiful Rudisha-esque, easy, flowing, loping stride. Wow
  10. Speaking of running. I saw the Milan marathon was on the other day. Titus (what a name) Ekiru (Kenya) beat his 2019 record by 2 mins, ran 2:02:57 !! 5th fastest of all time. Hiwot Gebrekidan (Eth) won the ladies in 2:19:35 also the fastest ever in Italy, and fastest time of the year. With a jump across the line nogal...
  11. fyi - For those of us DSTV hangers-on, its live on SS 207 from 17:45
  12. Is this part of the frame or an add-on? (It looks like a different colour/pattern?) I quite like the result either way. This is probably what Look wanted that horrendous older model 795 to look like at the front end...
  13. @Jewbacca Godspeed on your adventure good sir. Dots shall be watched.

    South African kiddo, went to St Albans College in Pretoria, now living large at Houston. Quite unbelievable this run
  16. This has been mentioned once or twice but I'll add to the queue. Active topics/active content. (Perhaps this needs for the catch-up process to complete?) Every time I go back to the active list I need to change Content Types from Topics to All Content to be able to see any off topic threads. If I save a new stream - it disappears as soon as I navigate away from the page. If I amend the Topic selection inside Content Type > Topics - that too resets when I leave the page. Frustrating EdIT: (3rd edit because backspace seems to delete the entire edit...) This above is from my PC, if I use my phone with normal chrome browser, active topics does show off-topic
  17. Mont Rochelle outside Franschhoek. What a stunning place. Those yellow (protea family I'm guessing) flowers were absolutely everywhere.
  18. Comic sans font. Not italics
  19. fyi Nick I like the addition of a couple extra post 'like' options. You can't see who liked/laughed/'sadded' your post, but the choice is cool.
  20. You should still have the blue dot/star on the left of the topic title which does that. (If you're looking at the Active Topics page.
  21. I hope Remco is sandbagging otherwise there will be some sad hubbers... (good grief, theres way too many emojis now to try search for a joking face) Cool finish yesterday. I love a bit of sparring between the GC chaps
  22. The end of off topic is finally here!
  23. Coverage has gone quite Italian on us....
  24. Indeed, Tao Geoghegan Hart (sp?)
  25. I'm going with this one. Isn't it too early to take GC jersey? And then the team will blow up defending and pacing and leading for the (almost) full tour? Or is that not really a thing anymore
