"In the final, I could make a good sprint, and I’m really happy for this victory" - Diego Ulissi on his stage victory in Tour du Limousin
Cycling
The third stage of the Tour du Limousin concluded with Diego Ulissi’s victory. The Italian rider fought his way to an impressive victory in a sprint finish ahead of Greg Van Avermaet.
“It was a very tight race with a tough course,” said Ulissi. He continues, “Me, Rui Costa, and Oliveira rode well, staying ahead in the group with the best riders and managed to fight it out for the win.”
His teammate Rui Costa was initially leading the race in the final two kilometers, but the rider made a blunder and took a wrong turn. In the end, it was a sprint between Ulissi and Van Avermaet. This is his second victory of the season. “In the final, I could make a good sprint, and I’m really happy for this victory,” concluded Ulissi. He holds the second position in GC,8 seconds behind overall leader Alex Aranburu.

- So far, a good series about riders before my time, even if the text feels AI generated like so much on this site. About the rider, he seems like one of many who are active fan favorites but don’t survive in the stories of cycling, a few decades later - I didn’t really know anything about him and this was a good read, thank you!RidesHills15-11-2026
- A calm, honest documentary, a bit of hagiography but mostly not too much. When he talks about a coffee shop, it aligns with several things in his world - he might want calm, but he does (more than a little bit) have someone near him (his fiancee) who makes sure that things happen the way he expects. Many atheletes have retired only to find out just how much others were taking care of their lives for them. If they work out (I'm old, things happen), I am sure it will take a renegotiation, which is a good thing. I truly enjoyed watching it, seeing him, seeing her, seeing the whole system built around him.RidesHills15-11-2026
- You do? My mother grew up around Bleiburg (Pliberk), across the border in Austria . My grandparents lived close to the train station in Bleiburg, and I spent a lot of the 70s and 80s there. The "Jugo" train of my youth went to Dravograd or Maribor, exotic places (behind the wall) at the time. What a moment that was, the 10 days war of '91 - times sure have changed.RidesHills15-11-2026

- b.s. headline. Jonas wasn't told anything, it is just a pundit telling him what to do. the actual article is not even close to the insinuation of the headline.mij15-11-2026
- I think Roglic could have beaten Sepp. not Jonas. I was referring to Sepp.mij15-11-2026
- I'm deeply sick of this guy and his unwillingness to race seriously for more than a month or two. I'll never respect riders who do that. Seixas will be stronger than him next season, and maybe Del Toro as well. I don't even think he'll finish on the podium at any GT where Pogi, Seixas, and Del Toro are racing.megasmacky15-11-2026

- If you go watch some races from last season other riders that have never caught Jonas...are now catching him. Some are just riding away from him and he can't hold the wheelmd197514-11-2026
