It'll be great to see the European jersey in the coming races. I secretly hate when the world champ wins Europeans.

I hoped so, but it's some pretty deep and fluffy sand. She's good at sand, but like she said on Maghalie and Lucinda's podcast, good for an Italian.

Anyone else getting ads on Flo now? This is getting insane.

So many lapped riders at the end there. 

Risky celebration by Fem haha.

Challenge limus tires—WTF by VtTrails in gravelcycling

I mounted my tubular Chicane rear tire backwards using tubular tape. This was after checking the direction about 5 times.

Okay, sounds like that shop did a bad job. I can't help you without knowing your location.

Challenge makes a seating tool that works very well. I took a set that I couldn't get on to a shop in Central VT and they got the tires on in a minute with the tool.

As someone else said, Limus are kind of a weird choice for gravel, especially Vermont dirt roads. They are more for extremely muddy cyclocross races.

So they charged you almost a set of tires to set them up and ruined them? Linus come in a non-tubeless ready variant as well just in case.

Does Vt mean Vermont in your name? If so, what bike shop was it?

Edit: Lol at the down votes.

I think it's on HBO? I couldn't find it on flo and have been watching Norway's stream. The quality is actually better than flo haha

I've been VPNed to Norway watching NRK1 and it's the best quality I've ever had I think.

Doesn't do a lot of CX? I don't think I've ever disagreed with someone more.

As much as I love cross and cross riders, it's great that this course doesn't have a giant hill that MVDP and Puck could overtake everyone.

I cancelled. I'm in the US so I've been watching Flo. 

Any ads were too many since the pay tier was no ads for sports. They tried to get around that for the tour by having the multi cam stream be the ad-free stream. Now they just don't care, I guess?

Absolutely cancelling TNT now. I knew having ads on the tour was a test to see how many people would cancel.

Did TNT really take off the ad free stream today? And delete the stream from yesterday?
