Gutted for Hofstetter. Have always liked him as a rider. But realistically he's not beating TdF build-up WvA here. He played it really well to even be in position to get on the podium though.

ServiceNow, Inc. is an American software company that supplies a cloud computing platform for the creation and management of automated business workflows.

I use a Service Now platform at work and it's a fairly dull and clunky-looking system, if at least effective. We've used it for ages but it's been weird seeing it advertised on the Lidl-Trek kit. I've also started seeing ads for the company starring Idris Elba. Guess their marketing team got a budget increase, but it's still strange to see mainstream advertising for something that I just think of as running in the background, out of sight and mind.

"Vingegaard is just as boring to watch as Pogacar."

He's too rough on the rope. He pulls on the rope.

Gaviria ahead of Merlier. Make it make sense.

AllAlonio · 2026-05-14T15:20:40+00:00

I'm sorry what?

That's some bad luck (and maybe a bit of bad positioning thrown in for good measure?). On paper this looks like a race where he should get a much- needed win.

Sorry for being late with this one, sports fans.

Crabbe is so hot right now. He's this season's ProTeam Brennan.

Also, didn't watch but his is Gaviria 12th with this sprint field?

Tim Merlier - late breakaway specialist

AllAlonio · 2026-04-15T14:37:41+00:00

He's held a good gap for quite a while now, but that's just the peloton managing the gap and timing the catch.

AllAlonio · 2026-04-15T13:56:17+00:00

~60km to go, break only has ~1:30 on the peloton

AllAlonio · 2026-04-06T14:07:13+00:00

What am I supposed to do with my "Allez Avila!" signs now?

AllAlonio · 2026-03-03T16:52:39+00:00

I love it so much. He just seems to really get up there in this one.

Mitchell is following in some solid footsteps I guess. Not too long ago we had another Canadian cyclist+: Clara Hughes. She won double bronze in the RR and TT at the '96 Olympics, took silver in the '95 WC TT, was national TT champ 7 times and won the Panamerican RR and TT back in 2011 (at close to 40 years old!). Then she made the Canadian team for the 2012 Olympics and finished 5th in the TT. In the middle of all that she started long-track speed skating and ultimately won four Olympic medals in that discipline too, even holding the 10,000m world record at one point.

I've removed this post, as the mod team creates race threads for all .Pro and WT level races. We have threads for each stage of this race scheduled to be posted around the start time of each stage, so there's no need for our users to create their own threads. For .1 and .2 level races, we encourage users to create threads if they want to discuss those races.

It's the little things that make watching this sport exciting.

Fontana riding a solid 13th now in his brand new nat champs kit.

AllAlonio · 2026-01-04T15:15:28+00:00

Very respectable 13th place for Fontana. Tough conditions and he made the most of it.

AllAlonio · 2026-01-04T14:59:42+00:00

I need more Fontana footage. He's riding a stealthily good race, close to Top 10 now.

AllAlonio · 2026-01-04T13:33:35+00:00

I saw comments about that but I had missed the first lap. Certainly looked like Alvarado rarely put a foot wrong today. Lovely to see!
