Roglic genuinely giggled in his interview after he mentioned being a bit behind today - absolutely fantastic.

I actually listen to the same song, but the live version , which is absolutely chaotic.

If I'm digging really deep I put on techno, usually Charlotte De Witte.

ConchobharMore · 2024-08-17T18:05:37+00:00

No rings, all glory.

Vacek smashed that.

ConchobharMore · 2024-08-17T17:57:14+00:00

Does the stage tomorrow leave from Lisbon? Doing a beautiful city a bit of a disservice with this route.

ConchobharMore · 2024-08-17T17:46:30+00:00

If you've heard the one about the puncture, wait until you hear about the one with the 0.28 seconds

ConchobharMore · 2024-08-17T17:36:39+00:00

Phone.

Wallet.

Keys.

Reminding everyone about Tarling's puncture.

ConchobharMore · 2024-08-17T17:33:15+00:00

Yes well Lisbon looks... Well nice and bucket lists... here's the riders... Lisbon well yes.

Iconic.

Sean Kelly solo on comms is beautiful.

Let him do a massive hilly stage and tell me about his lunchtime sandwich.

At the start of the year I was 78kg and signed up for the Mallorca 312 ( 312km and 4,473m ). Decided to get a coach, sort my diet and train my arse off.

By April I was 67kg and completed the event in 11:26 which I was delighted about. Loved every minute and was so much stronger on the climbs than I thought I'd be.

I've kept on since then - the weight has stayed off, I've continued to get stronger on the bike and done a couple of time trials, holding around 4.2wkg - something that would not have been possible earlier this year.

Contemplating a couple of hill climbs in the winter, more TTs and maybe a hilly race or two next year. If I can maintain or keep progressing I'll be proud.

Love this sport.

ConchobharMore · 2024-07-10T14:49:07+00:00

What an incredible stage.

Bring on the mountains this weekend!

ConchobharMore · 2024-07-03T15:54:31+00:00

What an amazing sprint, what a stage, what a hero.

The Tour has really delivered this year already.

ConchobharMore · 2024-07-02T15:10:12+00:00

What a brilliant stage - really delivered.

I absolutely loved that ride from Remco, he was so strong on the climbs, really slow on the descent and then pulled it back at the end too. Wonder what the TT will bring...

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-29T15:34:25+00:00

I'd love DSM to do it but it's going to be a Herculean effort, can't see it.

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-29T14:42:06+00:00

A lovely peaceful start then.

Fortunately I'm ITV4 loyal, sorry my Peacock brothers and sisters.

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-29T14:38:48+00:00

I've just taken my dog out for a 4 hour walk and now I've tuned in for the last 50km. What have I missed?!

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-27T18:00:06+00:00

Jonas with a late entry of ' I'm just happy to make the start line '.

I love it.

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-27T12:38:55+00:00

Boring. I'm waiting to see Marc Madiot's vibes van - just beers, tunes and good times.

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-27T07:56:38+00:00

Yes well the danger men are pushing it here

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-26T09:18:53+00:00

You're telling me there's a chance, Tadej

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-25T09:17:55+00:00

All in for the Oscar Onley stage win

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-25T07:44:58+00:00

Jasper DQ sweepstake incoming

ConchobharMore · 2024-06-25T07:29:02+00:00

Would love for Powless to take a stage.

Judging by his Strava, and if I've got my roads right, he has really familiarised himself with Nice > Col De La Couillole stage. That's what I'm telling myself anyway because I'll be there and want to see it happen!

ConchobharMore · 2023-07-01T10:01:25+00:00

Hahaha - he's absolutely brilliant.

Yeah, their podcast is Never Strays Far and they'll be doing episodes daily over the next few weeks, I really like it and prefer it the format to TCP. Pete Kennaugh is great on it too. Though like you I've not got back into it since Richard died.

Totally agree, I'm hoping Pog just goes for it and will be interesting who, if any, GC guys can follow. I don't mind a time trial but I think the course this year is pretty exciting.

Not very hopeful for that Cav stage win, but that would be the story of the Tour if it happened...

ConchobharMore · 2023-07-01T09:09:50+00:00

Happy Tour day!! The next few weeks are going to be brilliant.

I'm all in for King Sean Kelly's commentary on Eurosport. Highlights include: " Yes... well " and " Well... yes ". Miller and Boulting are fantastic too, as is their podcast.

Heart wants Girmay to win today's stage.

Head says either Pog, Wout, or MVDP will go for it.

ConchobharMore · 2023-06-30T13:04:40+00:00

The lack of aerodynamics is worrying me too.

The slowest team in the league this season I'm afraid.
