WW2 battle when stupid Pol-acks again took the brunt of a suicidal attack on the monastery, eventually taking it.
There's a pretty scenic cemetery as well, guess now we have signs in Polish.
Heroism good and all, let them rest in peace, but there are too many Monte Cassino, Arnhem, Somosierra, too few Vienna, Grunwald, Chocim.

He does say that he didn't understand that Mas was talking about aiming for the podium before the race. And that he may have felt good in training but that the races are the real test and Mas has failed that test. Basically, he says that Mas was huffing hopium to give himself confidence.

Grand Prix Antwert Port Epic / Sels Trophy tomorrow

Last year it was a BIG upset (a TSD, one might say) with Timo KIELICH winning sprint a duet over Rasmus WALLIN.
WALLIN has been then unceremonially FIRED from UNO-X mobility and has been scraping the barrel's end at various danish clubs.

ah okay well I guess for front shifting its not that impossible after all- > RD cable died after 40k
I talked to some trusted oldfags and ancientfags irl about this and they said that back in the day with shifters that had cables exist like so getting 15-20k out of a rear cable was not unheard of especially when you rode terrain with reduced shift frequency (flat or long climbs) but they all deemed that impossible after that got changed. One of them still rides mechanical and he gets 7-10k per rear cable but we also have to shift very frequently all ride here.

my googling said 2-3 years, sometimes more
my average ride looks like this, i switch gears frequently
my childhood Favorit I still have at one of my summerhouse's will have a cable that still works after all these years, probably, but it is the old shifting on the frame

It's kinda weird.
Essentially they are spamming cp. Except some of the images they use isn't cp at all (luckily). Some are bestiality (which is similarly illegal in the US). Occasionally they use the non-nude photos of an undoubtedly 18+ negress. Still deleting due to the links they share with them.

In my hometown there is a few sections of rough, old brick sidewalks. When I started riding I used to hop off the street onto the sidewalk and imagine I was Cancellara. This is the beauty of our sport, so easy to connect yourself to the legends.

If there was significant gravel within riding distance of me I'd be a full convert, but there isn't, so I'm firmly road only in protest.

As Giro is abroad again today, some old stories are filling the newspaper today.
> Koblet wird sein enger Freund, und obwohl die beiden nicht im selben Team fahren, unterstützt ihn Clerici beim Giro 1953 und verrichtet Helferdienste. Von seiner italienischen Equipe wird er darauf ausgeschlossen. Deswegen beantragt er den Schweizer Pass, Copain Koblet holt ihn ins Nationalteam. Am Giro 1954 reisst Carlo Clerici in der sechsten Etappe mit vier anderen unbekannten Fahrern aus, er gewinnt nicht nur die Etappe, sondern hat über eine halbe Stunde Vorsprung aufs bummelnde Feld. Die Stars wie Fausto Coppi glauben, Clerici werde in den Bergen einbrechen. Als er in Mailand als Sieger einfährt, wird er vom Publikum ausgebuht und als Landesverräter beschimpft.
Clerici did help Koblet in 1953 as friend, so his Italian team threw him out. With a Swiss mother and growing up in Zürich he bacame a Swiss citizen and joined a new team In 1954 he won a Giro stage with 30 minutes ahead of the slurping pedalton, as Coppi thought he could easily get those back in the alps. He couldn't and Italians were furious that the traitor won the Giro.

> Die Kommentatoren sind verwirrt. Kurz vor dem Ortseingang von Santa Maria steigt der Leader vom Rad. «Was passiert hier? Radwechsel?», fragt der Mann am Mikrofon. Nein – Tom Dumoulin hat ein anderes Problem. Der Niederländer steigt vom Rad, zieht den Helm aus, zieht sein pinkes Trikot über den Kopf. Als er die Träger seiner Hose runterlässt, merkt der Kameramann langsam, was droht, und schwenkt ab. Denn ja: Dumoulin setzt sich in den Strassengraben und entleert seinen Darm.

No I live in a mid sized city in New England. There is some nice gravel around an hour drive away but mostly steeper climbs. My dream would be to do most of my training on gravel flat or reasonable climbs, as it seems some berts can do.

They pulled the wire out probably a bit early but I also went to work with it immediately. I was 17 back then, it was football and basketball after school and then booze on the weekend.
No effects, my right shoulder (the broken collarbone one) was a bit lower but I have worked a bit on posture and there is almost no imbalance now.

As much of a waste of time walking back down was, I knew that the trein wouldn't have enough space for bikes, so I don't have to wait another hour for the next train. True stongmen are cycling back home over the cobbled roads of the Gotthard pass. I keep seeing cyclists from the train, they have my respect.

For the tour de suisse, I don't know if I will cover it live. The stages are far away this time. I could watch the ITT, but I might as well watch paint dry. The only advantage is that you can see the riders individually at the finish line. 
And I saw poggers at the World Championships in Zurich. I consider going to the tour stage in Alsace instead.

I like the Camelbak Podium bottles because the spout locks easily and especially because the whole top and spot can be easily disassembled for a thorough clean and dry. I don't do that every ride but it feels good to be able to do so.

 >>/89201/
Those look very nice. Can you easily clean inside the crevices of the spout/can it be taken apart? I don't know if I could have a non-see-through bottle, I like to see how much is left to gauge my hydration.

They've realised they haven't done shit this Giro and so are desperate for a crumb of TV attention.

Embarrassing, really. Even conti teams usually don't do such obvious performative moves. It's one thing to send shitters up the road at the start of the stage, it's another to do it for one valley in the middle of a stage.

Intersting noombers from my stupid amazon consoomer products:
on the third day,
after two days of summer sun exposure, one 2hr mtb ride and one hour tanning on the beach to where I still needed to ride 5km and had my longer way around shop ride anyways so it is not a completely zero exertion day,
and on the third day from which the measurements are I've also had good 15kms of commute plus gym:
HR minimum -5bpm
HR resting -6bpm
Beyond Z1 zones halved
HR variability up 20ms (good)

It's like vitamin D is really essential
