Despite it being decided halfway through, this was still a fun tour. It was ugly for those first few days but all that carnage led to teams, with nothing left to race for, creating chaos and secondary drama on the individual stages while Tadej cruised to #2.

Wout was my favorite to watch yet again. He gets one of the most brutal mountain stages in recent history, takes the TT yesterday, and the final sprint today!
I agree. Cav is a legend but a powerhouse Belgian denied him from taking.a Belgian legend record. Kinda cool. And MVP in first half was awesome. I really like these 2 guys. Shame about primoz wreck. Will he ever get a mellow johny now? Pogocar is a monster. He seems to be a really cool dude also always smiling and clowning around..no matter his vitamix. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Bahrain fiasco. Prolly nothing.

I wonder who will grab gold in a few days?

Is Tadej racing the Vuelta?

Egan Bernal is and would be cool to see these 2 duke it out.

Yeah, I was really hoping McNulty was going to hang on and have a sprint for gold but he hit the wall about 5 minutes too soon.

Van Der Pol cases the first big jump on the course during the MTB race.

I'm impressed he got back on the bike after the hit he took.

Controversial idea:

Don't be impressed by road racers doing well in MTB.

They should be faster, that's why they get paid more to be a road racer.

For anyone interested, and has the Olympic Channel, the Vuelta will be available without Gold Pass.

La Vuelta. Primož just can’t handle a bike. Shame. I like him a lot as a rider too.

Interesting. Tizanidine was found in 3 riders hair samples from le tour. It appears to be Bahrain.

At least it's not UAE, it would never end.

Next July all the teams will show up with more shaved than just their legs. Book it!

Well **** this sux. Egan nailed a bus while training. The pics show a massive dent in the back of the bus like a car hit it. He is lucky to not be paralyzed or dead with his list of injuries. They are severe.

2019 tdf winner
2021 giro winner

Edit. Some reports are saying his teammates he was training with were yelling at him to stop. Also saying he was on his tt bike head down with earbuds in pushing big power. Couldn't hear them or see the bus stopped..

This does suck for Egan.

After more recent surgeries he was just cleared to move out of ICU into a regular hospital room today.

Time for some big one-day races!

Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Bruxelles-Kuurne are this weekend and the Strade Bianche and Paris-Nice are the weekend after that.

Who on here has Peacock? Is everything on the paid version?

I know TdF will be on USA but that's all I've seen confirmed. Is the paid version the equivalent of gold pass? If not, I doubt I'll bother.

Finally got to catch the last 20k and I'm wondering why the article I read didn't mention that WvA made the break at the bottom of a hill.

Interesting both that the UCI seems to have relaxed their helmet sponsorship rules and that Wout was wearing his Red Bull helmet but didn't see Pidcock in his.

The group behind the F1 docuseries "Drive to Survive" are in the final stages of negotiating a deal with ASO to film a behind the scenes series at this year's TdF.

At first thought, I cant imagine that being interesting enough to keep me engaged. Then again, I thought the same about Drive to Survive.
