Is there a Bikehub SuperBru pool yet?

 

I haven't heard the term SuperBru in ages, is that still a thing?

Maybe only old people over 40 still play?

At the risk of it being mentioned before (apologies if it has).....
Interesting observation: 21 Teams Total. 17 on Shimano Dura Ace. Only 4 on SRAM AXS. Shimano still clearly the favourite. Isn't it the other way around when it comes to MTB's? SRAM there more popular?

I see Bauke Mollema is not one of the TdF SRAM riders... Is that good or bad, I wonder?

I see Trek riders don’t throw those new expensive bottles away, they do an exchange with their team car 🫠
