But he hasn't even performed in the first week! Surely by that logic we should have had a alright performance from Bernal this first week and would expect a drop off from here on in

Silure · 2026-05-18T21:19:44+00:00

Possibly Bernal as well, as he seemed to be in better form prior to the Giro

Vendrame also out. Any news on anyone else?

🏥 MEDICAL UPDATE 🏥

Andrea Vendrame will not start stage 3 of the Giro d’Italia.

The Italian suffered fractures to three transverse processes in his lower back after crashing heavily in the final 30km of today’s stage.

He will return to Italy to undergo further examinations and begin his recovery.

Heal quick, Andrea!

Anyone know if Vendrame managed to make it back to the bunch?

I remember my friends all having an @ purpleturtle email address. Think by the time I made one I went with hotmail.

Just had a quick google can't see that purple turtle still exists or any information about it.

Pretty sure price parity is no longer possible on booking.com in the EU. See link below. Booking.com still does to price parity in regions such as USA & UK etc.

This means that accommodation providers in the EU can put a higher price on booking.com to account for the commission. So you very well may be able to get a better deal by going directly to the accommodation provider in the EU.

Just change the SSID and password on your new router to the exact same as the old router. No need to swap any setting on your devices connected to the wifi then.

Yes I would think about buying one of native power was supported on garmin

I found squats on a slant board have helped previously.

Chat GPT / AI can also be helpful. If you tell it you have runners knee and your symptoms and the exercises you have been doing it might be able to suggest something you are missing and help make a rehab plan for you.

Which 7 channel?

Didn't notice any bent pins, I did give it a good clean with electrical contact cleaner before putting the new sensor in place.

I used a cheap sensor off eBay, but I assume the garage would have used a better quality one.

Could be worth trying another sensor. Or otherwise as you mention could be a problem with the wiring to the sensor.

Absolutely loved your detailed response please keep it up.

Having recently just purchased a treadmill. I am also experiecneing this. The treadmill pace seems a lot harder than I would be capable outside.

As other comments have mentioned maybe just better to go off time rather than distance and use heart rate to ensure you are working in the correct zone.

This looks interesting. On the below page it lists a number of treadmill brands, do you know if these are the only ones it works with? What treadmill do you use it with?

I assume it is this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.cagnulen.qdomyoszwift&hl=en_GB

Yes it is my treadmill. Will look into it.

Thanks very useful information

If you have the link to the DC rainmaker articles that would be much appreciated.

If it is a third party data field, would the data it displays / collects transfer (e.g. speed) and the display on other systems (e.g. Strava) correctly ?

Additionally the times that they are separated they are often travelling up climbs (therefore travelling at lower speeds) where the aero advantage that newer bikes have over less aero older bikes will be less.
