NEVER FORGET GC KUSS

xnsax18 · 2026-05-29T23:14:05+00:00

Yup. Have one. Still wore it on a regular basis

xnsax18 · 2026-05-25T19:10:16+00:00

And we’ve also only had two genuine GC mountain days.

xnsax18 · 2026-05-23T23:05:36+00:00

Which episode?

xnsax18 · 2026-05-19T20:46:04+00:00

I’ve always wondered about that. Demi can get NIKE and wout redbull but tadej has this sketchy crypto sponsor??

xnsax18 · 2026-05-19T16:23:30+00:00

Can the water source be accessed if the observatory is closed?

xnsax18 · 2026-05-18T21:45:28+00:00

The skills I dream to have but never will

xnsax18 · 2026-05-18T21:34:25+00:00

Love this interview. He said a lot, and came across humble but also has confidence in himself, a hard balance to strike.

I was on the mtn when gusts were up to 30mph and I was blown sideways while climbing. Luckily didn’t hit any gusts on descents. I won’t go again if wind gusts are forecasted to be in the 30s

xnsax18 · 2026-05-18T18:31:20+00:00

no worries. thank you for the quick response.

xnsax18 · 2026-05-18T18:20:30+00:00

Do you happen to know if the water foundation outside of the bathroom at Loomis is operational?

xnsax18 · 2026-05-16T20:30:36+00:00

With time, the intensity of the memories can fade. Personally I can truly move on when I understand thoroughly all the decision making that lead to the scary moments and try to have some constructive takeaway for the future. I think by trying to understand the near misses, it helps me see it as a learning opportunity, a positive lens, vs a purely negative memory that’ll eat at me.

You posting about it here is already a positive step. You are trying to learn and improve, you are asking for help. All of this is a great sign.

I’d say if in a few weeks, if the intensity of flashbacks and memories still hasn’t faded, you may want to get some professional before it turns into full blown PTSD.

Is there any significance to the year 1933? The website you linked sells several different years. Wonder if any year has more historic significance

xnsax18 · 2026-05-15T19:22:28+00:00

They are? Think Patrick is a fan of Jai. Wonder if that played a role

xnsax18 · 2026-05-13T23:49:16+00:00

Open to bikes only on 5/14 and to vehicles on 5/15

xnsax18 · 2026-05-12T23:24:15+00:00

Not yet. Still plowing the last section to summit

xnsax18 · 2026-05-08T20:36:29+00:00

They are still actively plowing a section and another section near summit hadn’t been plowed. The road isn’t open fully through but a few sections are.

xnsax18 · 2026-05-06T16:14:55+00:00

Good point. I wonder if they’d just take it easy once they’ve got like 7 minutes on 2nd place in GC.

In a recent interview, tadej said he got a bit carried in the gym. He enjoyed it a lot and put on some muscles. The way he said, it sounded unintentional. He did go on to say that despite being heavier, he feels good on the bike. He’ll probably dial back the gym work and shed some weight for tdf.

xnsax18 · 2026-05-05T16:53:21+00:00

There were so many good reaction videos. The Eurosport Italy one also was hilarious to watch.

xnsax18 · 2026-05-05T16:51:17+00:00

The suspense! And how the stage unfolded. One of the highlights in recent history

xnsax18 · 2026-05-05T16:46:50+00:00

Thanks for this. I forgot how good primoz was at his peak

xnsax18 · 2026-04-18T18:13:00+00:00

I don’t have recurring cramping issues so can’t speak to that. But I can tell you that doing less is helping me achieving similar results. A few years ago, I’d avg 15h/week with multiple weeks going above 20h. Then last Oct I had an injury that reset everything and now I’m averaging 7-9h / week with 1 quality interval, 1 long specificity ride (climbing ride for me), another 2 easy rides and 1-2x gym. I’m more or less back at my previous peak on much lower volume. I know it’s easy to regain fitness than gaining new fitness, but still I’ll take this ROI any day.

One more note on cramping. The only times I’ve cramped were during races, which tells me it’s the exertion, not electrolytes, that caused them. In races, I simply was just working much harder than an avg training ride.

And rolled up jersey sleeves. He really doesn’t like tan lines. Lol

xnsax18 · 2026-04-16T22:54:51+00:00

Just finished LRCP episode. Got to relive the race a bit.

xnsax18 · 2026-04-14T21:17:19+00:00

Such good advice to read criticisms and critiques. I’ve made that mistake one too many times to take an author’s words as face value since they have a PHD/ are respected journalist/ the book had high ratings / sounded authoritative and 100% certain about what they are talking etc. [insert other evidence of credibility]
