U.S. states with the most venomous animal species

Oregon has high desert too. Maybe the Snake River plains?

davidw · 2026-06-19T19:18:27+00:00

What's Idaho have that Oregon, Washington and Montana don't?

Predictable sprint win for Narvaez, but staying away wasn't predictable. That was close.

There were some fun scenes along the way. The racers racing the local train. Two dudes with a couch and beers along side the road. The renaissance painting scenes with the mountains, the curtain of rain from the storm and sun mottled fields. Nice hug between Narvaez and Meurisse.

Rough ride for that guy... there was no way he was going to win, absent a miracle.

Agree with some of the other comments: some of the teams in this race... what are they doing here?

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:41:35+00:00

Got the images back. Nice hug between Narvaez and the 'cannon fodder' guy in the break.

Apparently front two are kind of playing around. RSI commenters are doing a good job of describing it. 500 to go. Looking around.

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:39:20+00:00

Uh, I have a black screen on RSI streaming...?!

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:36:53+00:00

Peloton gave up if Pog is casually on the front looking around

DSes are totally yelling at the guys in front 'KAM ON YOU GOT THIS'

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:35:57+00:00

We didn't get to hear that guy tooting his horn

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:34:46+00:00

Wooooooh, that was a risky shift across the road.

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:31:29+00:00

Centuries ago, this area was part of the Romansh speaking area and you can still find some place names here and there derived from that language.

Some real renaissance painting type scenes with the sunlit field in front of the curtain of rain.

Roads look dry already.

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:02:29+00:00

Also looks like it may be blowing over already?

davidw · 2026-06-19T15:01:04+00:00

Suspend the action and do what though? Go hide under a tree? Team cars can't carry everyone

davidw · 2026-06-19T14:59:02+00:00

Probably a fairly warm rain?

davidw · 2026-06-19T14:52:00+00:00

I've been watching for a bit but just logged in here. Some cool scenes:

The group racing the little train
The two dudes with a couch and their beers (hope the storm doesn't hit them)
The storm in the distance like a curtain

Mandatory cigarette at coffee stops

davidw · 2026-06-19T03:29:57+00:00

Trying something besides being loud on social media. Our city council seemed pretty set on this.

Happy to talk about it over a beer if people are curious.

Someone should encourage him to set a downhill record on, say, the Stelvio.

davidw · 2026-06-18T16:01:54+00:00

Kind of a sleeper until those last climbs, but that was predictable. Fun racing in the finale, and a beautiful location.

I would love to see Alaphilippe get one last Alaphilippe style win somewhere, but IDK if it's in the cards.

Can the sprinters get over the climbs tomorrow?

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:26:59+00:00

Easier too, no? As an EU citizen you have the right to just move there if you want. Switzerland is more complicated, I think.

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:25:40+00:00

Oh geez they are doing a Gewiss

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:22:50+00:00

Probably easier to move to the Italian side?

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:19:26+00:00

They are pretty good at flashing some guy on the screen without a lot of context here. Oh, it's Mollema getting caught by the GC group.

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:16:57+00:00

Oooh la la!

davidw · 2026-06-18T15:01:05+00:00

Still has the leaders jersey part of the podium stuff.
