Cycling

I wonder what the chances are of Ashleigh wearing yellow by the end of the stage tomorrow :unsure:

Kopecky is expected to lose the lead in the mountains tomorrow but unfortunately Ashleigh is only a couple of seconds ahead of some of the other big names. Only a couple of seconds between her and the likes of Annemiek and Lamborghini lol and even 7th place Demi is just a few short seconds behind.

I think Annemiek or even Demi will be in yellow but you never know. Come on Ash!

Damn, Demi destroyed everyone today. Rode her way into yellow. Niewiadoma 2nd overall and van Vleuten 3rd.

Ashleigh now 5th, 2:39 behind :(
 
Ashleigh had a terrible TT. Finishes 6th overall. Annemiek lost her spot on the podium as well.

Demi the winner overall, Kopecky 2nd with a strong TT and Niewiadoma 3rd.

Seeing ashleigh being overtaken on the TT didn't feel good. I wonder if kopecky can win a tour? Her determination is admirable.

The Belgians have a huge problem with Wout, Remco, and Philipsen in the same team. On paper they're the best team there, but each guy wants to win for themselves. It's ****ed.

I would put my Zim dollar on Remco to do a 40km to go attack and win by a minute or more.

Err... The men's road race is all that matters, right? Right?

(also I said Sunday, so there's only one marque event on Sunday...)

Fair enough about Sunday. If think the time trial is pretty important too?

And personally I enjoy some of the track events
 
I'll def be watching the road race, track, bmx race and mountain biking especially the downhill. It's like a mini Olympics this year but just for cycling.

ASO invention. They want to do it every 4 years this format.

Jip I saw that. I think it sounds cool having all cycling events together in one world cup but will see how it goes. It also sounds pointless because there will still be annual world champs.

I see there will also be artistic cycling. Wtf is that? Ribbons but on a bike? Never heard of it.
