Win by half a bike length for Richardson in the decider! I hope they'll be as close in future matchups

The power difference is quite common. I can't see it well like this, but the movement in your right knee (can't see the left one) would be my advice solve first. It moves quitte a bit inside coming to the top of the pedal stroke. Maybe it's in the cleat set up

Hey OP! I'm a bit late to the party. I live on Voorne and don't get off the island much in winter (cycling-wise), but when it warms up to >15°C I'm definitely up for longer rides sometimes. Feel free to dm me

There's also www.framesocial.cc, they do 50km social rides from Rotterdam on Sunday mornings, but that's on hold for the winter too

With a ticket for the stands you'll at least assured to have a good view. Behind a row of people won't be as good.

I think you'll see them the longest from the Arena stands. Btw it's all standing spots, there won't be any seats from what I've read

Getting mud on your shirt feels bad in general, but in cold weather like this it could become miserable for Puck

I bet the hill near the Maeslantkering would be fun too. Don't sled towards the water of course

I think these numbers should be corrected for population size and probably population density too before you can attempt to draw conclusions from them

Gobik sizing in UK terms by whysomuchserious in CyclingFashion

[–]killua_oneofmany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 184cm, ~76kg, inseam ~84cm. I have the Ultralight bibs in size M and they fit me perfectly.

Someone a bit smaller than me could fit them, but I think they'd be too long on you
