Welcome back! Good rest day lads?
50km out Yungle in the Jungle, Nibbles, Christbike, Valverde and Zakarin up the front... GC breakaway madmen!
>>67817229
Are we using this thread?
>>67817342
looks like it.
Where are you watching? Eurosport are just spamming advert breaks to get them over and done with...
>>67817381
Cyclinghub on phone and Eurosport on TV.
Anyone think this group will make it? Clearly they think they have a chance, but can totally see them all attacking each other and then getting tired
abandoned my shitty thread
Cannondale working hard to secure Uran's 12th place.
kruijswijk looks very confident.
Thanks Eurosport. I didn't want to eat h the climb anyway
>>67817530
Is it just me who hears "Christbike" every time? pic related
we climb cat 2 now
Uran dropped from 2nd group?
>>67817658
parcheggio.
Dear Eurosport. Why do you keep putting all these skeletal men riding bikes up a hill in the way of the adverts?
>tfw missing today
why do you hate me?
Nibali paying off Russians
Nibbles in trouble again. No worries for Kruijswijk
>>67817715
Lucky their meme currency is cheap

>>67817747
i never liked renaat. just send wuyts!
based kruijswijk
why is he so good
>>67817795
Or why are others so bad
>>67817795
He's good because the others are men. If Quintana, Froome or Contador were here, he'd be dropped.
>>67817764
>Sean Kelly
when i started watching eurosport cycling i really thought he is some arab or similar because how poorly he is speaking english
>>67817783
he'll be back in action in the tour, friend

STILL 9KM TO GO
NIBBELS GETTING HURT
>>67817829
/cyc/ brings the bants
>>67817869
He's a good descender though desu senpai
>>67817825
>hen i started watching eurosport cycling i really thought he is some arab or similar because how poorly he is speaking english
His English is perfect, his accent is a mixture of something called "culchie",Irish and French.
You bigot.
>>67817857
Appalled
>>67817829
Fucking kek
Also, is Kruijswijk the lester of cycling?
>>67817877
he's completely out of shape, he simply isn't a threat to anybody.
>>67817877
its a very short descent, approx 2,5k
then another 6k slow climb
>>67817890
Probably an AZ
>>67817894
Except for on descents, where he will nibble.
>>67817898
Are you underestimating how much can be nibbled in 2.5k? Your lack of faith disturbs me.
another minute for nibali.
>>67817929
Apparebtly he nibbled nothing.
Valverde will win this stage.
Screenshot this.
>>67817953
Playing the long game, saving the legs, all he needs is one bidon from the car and he's still on for the stage win
>>67817969
kek
dat astana sticky bottle
>>67817929
>>67817953
I think he's nibbling backwards now
>>67817994
Nibbles nibbles in mysterious ways
>the state of italian cycling
sad actually.
>>67818005
>Implying nibbles wont nibble 1'46 on just one descent
>kruijswijk
>giving 4 seconds to Valverde
>>67818005
what happened italia?
>calcio too
holy shit Kruijswijk's got this. Amazing form
god why does cannondale suck so fucking hard
fuck vaughters
>>67818064
doping controls got harder
>>67818064
Herency for Berlusconi age
>>67818084
such a classy lad.
Still more of a Dumoulin fan though
valverde seems like such a nice guy always liked him
Is a Dutchie actually going to win the Giro for the first time ever?
>>67818197
Didn't Breukink win any GC?
>>67818212
not in a grand tour.
>>67818197
Don't jinx it nig
>great recent successes in F1, cycling, tennis, swimming and darts
>still not going to the Euros
>tfw
yay a dutchie doping'd faster than some other dopies
big whoop
>>67818283
Take the doping talk elsewhere.
Every sport has dopers at the top, doesn't make the spectacle less enjoyable.
>>67818381
it kills the spectacle
>>67818390
then go watch korfbal and fuck off
>>67818390
No it doesn't. Enjoy watching whatever sport you believe to be clean.
This is supposed to be a comfy thread.
doping made the sport way more entertaining
the racing today is pretty good but its not stuff you'd want to look up on youtube to watch in a couple years
the lance armstrong TdFs are awesome to rewatch
>>67818609
an inconvenient truth.
>>67818609

go suck on lance's uniball, clueless man
>>67818609
its amazing how doped up cyclism and euro trance go so well together

>euro trance
what the fuck maat
>>67818831
>Euro-Trance emerged as a hybrid of Hard Trance and Eurodance music and was most popular between late 1998 and 2000. It usually has around 140-145 bpm, a bass which is generally quite heavy, many breakdowns and big rifts, and often uses female vocals. These elements make Euro-Trance to be less sophisticated and complex than other Trance sub-genres and this fact is accentuated by its commercial sound with a primitive lyrical content and renderings of classic Happy Hardcore anthems. This is why most Euro-Trance compositions result in happy sounding melodies. Many people associate this genre with Techno, but gradually Euro-Trance music moved away from this genre and developed a synth sound of its own.

>go suck on lance's uniball, clueless man
i guess you didn't grow up with ullrich, pantani, museeuw and bartoli etc. those days cycling was a far more spectacular, deal with it.
>>67818863
Eurobeat > Eurodance
>tfw waiting for Initial D doshinjins with characters using bikes instead of cars
>>67818246
This. There's some really weird thing developing in dutch sports. We're always diehard fans for our footbal team, but they disappoint more with each year. Meanwhile we're starting to become a lot more succesful in other sports though like: athletics, gymnastics and the ones you already mentioned.
Tell me, what kind of meme magic is going on right now?
>>67819265
Netherlands relevant in rugby for when?
>>67818686
i don't give a shit about lance winning
the racing was amazing in those days
>>67819361
Who knows...with odd magic like this in a few years?
who /elite/ here?
>>67819400
rip
>>67819400
I can get down to about 36 when I up my mileage.
33 would be scary for me desu.
What's your FTP and max heart rate?
>>67819400
Would you consider fucking my wife so I can at least have a good my wife's son?
>>67819462
how many dank memes do you have to offer?
>>67819447
What is "FTP"? And my HRmax is 198, though the highest I've ever seen it get to is about 187
>>67819491
functional threshold power
the absolute highest wattage you can sustain for an hour
>>67819491
I'd be available to discuss the terms on my boypussy.
>be a fan of Basso
>love Liquigas
>love Cannondale, was on the fence between 2 bikes, so I chose the 'Dale
>see the rise of Nibali and Sagan, follow their career pretty closely
>all is gone
Slut team desu senpai
>>67819506
I don't know, but in stationary bike workouts the most calories I've ever burned in a one-hour increment was about 600 (average HR was about 160)
>>67819512
I'm in
>>67819575
that can't be right
i am pretty unfit currently and can sustain ~260Watts for an hour and that already leaves me at ~900, with my

> i am pretty unfit currently and can sustain ~260Watts
wat
Fuck me and my 200
>tfw can't compare my FTP with anons because no powercranks.
>>67819734
You can have a pretty reasonable estimative if you have a Ant+ speed meter, stationary roller and a USB dongle for your PC.
>>67819717
that is for my fat body who can do nothing btut cardio.
shit streength, no sprinting muscles at all.
i am also quite fat currently, so this doesn't even come out at 2.8W/KG
>>67819780
2.8 is more acceptable but it still is very VERY decent for a out of shape person, anon.
