I feel so fucking bad for Jay Vine berts, like actually sick to my stomach almost. This might genuinely be the end of his career, he just made some post about finally spending time with his family after long recovery and training hard for the giro. How much can a man take before he breaks.

Only to quickly stick his head back into the car.”

I need the help of Bert.
Natsu Basho - sumo - is starting today, however this time I have no source to get the videos of NattoSumo.
What I need is someone with existing Telegram account to go to his channel or SumoCuts (it's probably the latter) and download the daily juryo and makuuchi bout recaps videos and send it to me via wormhole.app. 720p is suitable. I need the videos till 17:00 CEST the latest (so I can convert and upload).
And I need this in the next 15 days.
Can Bert help?

Probably one of the most soulless races on the calendar along with Var Classic. When they split off one stage from an already short stage race and make it its own race the day before to maximize UCI points to attract point farmer teams.

I think I'll finally swallow the Pog, Vinge + Sprinter pill. Been avoiding it for the past years but it's always the best strategy.

Some short bouts in the aero position today, felt really good and strong so can't wait to do that road bike TT on Thursday. I think I might become a TT'er yet, feels fun to go fast and I think if I can still gain some 20W FTP I could be competitive on the national level. The Finnish NC last year did 420W for 40min for the NC win but I don't think his position is too optimised yet.

> According to German Lotto team doctor Gerard Ackerl, it is by no means certain that splashing cow dung was the cause of the illness. “That is a hypothesis, but not a certainty,” the doctor told the Belgian newspaper. “It is clear that they contracted gastroenteritis. Recovering from that takes a huge toll on the body.” Nevertheless, they brought De Lie to the start, just like the sick Milan Menten. “Because we are almost certain that they will get better in the coming days. In Milan's case, we only had him come in when we were one hundred percent certain that there was no danger whatsoever to his health. He went to the emergency room because we wanted to rule out any other problem, for example of a cardiological nature.”
Wait what, what kind of fucking doctor is this

> Of course, winning all three Grand Tours is something special. I started talking to the team about it soon after the Vuelta. They quickly realized that I really wanted this. So they started looking at my data from the past few years to see if participating in the Giro would also have a positive influence on my performance in the Tour. After all, the Tour always remains my main goal. The team saw that my numbers were not worse in the two years I rode the Vuelta after the Tour. In fact, I would say that in terms of power output, I was even slightly better in the Vuelta.”

how does this even make sense, both vueltas he's ridden he didn't even look close to as dominant as he was in the tours he won and the tours he lost

He got sick in both but rode well when he was feeling healthy. Not sure who all this pointless PR yapping is for. His DS would know from experience that Jonas is more likely to get sick in his second grand tour so he wouldn't recommend the Giro if the main goal is still Tour de France. Maybe they say all this bullshit for the sponsors or maybe for the fans? They could easily be honest and say Jonas rides the Giro to win it as his main goal or one of his main goals of this season. Who would be against that?

yes well there basically ain't shit no more, we're already in survival mode when it comes to frames and wheels but the groupset manufacturers completely abandoned this section. The way I see it short-term we can survive off old stock and used stuff, mid-term we can survive off used stuff and small brand stuff but long-term it'll be used very old crap only

I'm thinking in terms of keeping my current frame. Wheels will probably be the biggest issue long-term. Hopefully enough nerds and old people will stick around that there will be a few options around, but prospects are grim.

It is the case if you think you are a future Tour de France winner. Quickstep has never had a top tier team to support a grand tour rider but Remco should have focused on classics anyway.

It's hard to tell if he went to Bora for the money or he truly believes he can win Tour de France.
It's also hard to tell what Bora's plan is. They have two young riders that are clearly better at grand tours but they hired this guy for a huge sum and promised him he would be captain.

pretty sure the remco deal was in the making or already done before lipowitz podium'd that tour because during last years tour german TV interviewed denk a couple times and during one of these he was really evasive about remco's shit performance and so on, basically making excuses for him.
That they ended up with multiple potential gc guys and that remco didn't magically improve at bora is all unplanned is what I'm getting at

do you also have the issue of constantly slightly slipping forward on the saddle? in the TT position, I constantly have to push my ass back to sit proper on the saddle. maybe thats why tony martin was sanding his asshole

I am riding a different TT saddle tomorrow so there I will sit more on the nose/rivet, but I don't think that's the crucial part, it's about in what position you can rotate your hips and put down good power. I have a pretty long upper body so I need to sit slightly further backward, if I am too forward then I will become crunched even with my effective 170mm stem. My TT saddle has a slightly slippery feel to it yeah, I'd prefer it to be rougher.
 >>/85407/
I'm not sure what rules they will uphold in the TT, since it's a regular TT (meaning TT bikes are good) they are very strict about rules for TT bikes (nose of saddle at least 5cm behind BB, not too long TT skis and so on) but I am not sure what their rules for road bikes are. My handlebars are wide enough at least to fit the 28cm UCI rule if they measure that.

Kinda same for me, not that I ever rode any competition or even have the bike fit for me, but having normal legs and slightly longer torso makes me super crunched everytime I want to mimic a Tony Martin in aero and I just can't push hard. Ass further back, elbows on the bar and keeping the back straight is the only thing semi-working. Although that is illegel.

I am an amateur but I have ambitions, I want to get a top10, top5 or even a podium in the NC in the next 5 years. I don't think I will ever get any money from this, but I want to get better and, yes, prove myself against other amateurs and hopefully beat them. People enjoy different things in sports, I enjoy getting faster, more powerful, not just "comfortable".

I overall understand the appeal of racing TT. It's a hard effort, you need to figure out pacing and everything, and there is little luck involved, which is fun. The problem is that it's just a massive pay to win competition, but I guess if you can afford it it's OK.

Yeah I have one TT-weenie clubmate who always buys the new TT helmets that are released and then tests them on a velodrome to find the absolute fastest setup for him. He's the chief ER surgeon in the nearby hospital so he can afford it, heh. No wind tunnels here so that makes the most paypig optimization out of the picture for most.

Alright, thanks for the input. Yeah fun to see how well I can hold the position. I did 2min suprathreshold reps yesterday in this position with short rests and that wasn't too bad, but continuous for 25-30min is more tricky (though at least there's the U-turn in the middle where you can somewhat relax). Sub-26min would be perfect, should be achievable with ~380W and an optimistic CdA of 0.25 but maybe sub-27min is more achievable.

this is a good indicator of how sheltered someone lived his life so far. You don't engage with scum unless you're confident you can take them out simple as, that should be common knowledge. You read about stuff like this way too often where someone gets beaten, stabbed or even killed because he engages one or multiple scummies over a valid cause but without a way to overpower them when push comes to shove. Don't do that because it's guaranteed that it will.
