- Now I get why you’re so repetitive, I have a neighbour who went to a home for a similar condition. You just don’t remember most of what you write so you use copy-pastes of stuff, like the guy in Memento to hold your thoughts together.
- Also due to having very relaxed winters and almost never suffering a serious injury or crashes, helps to in such short careers.
- You starting to Mou now?
It was a Lidl Trek rider behind Remco (who then also crashed through maybe panicky distraction) in 2nd. who had a rimless front flat (according to Bilbao (a local) because of the tree roots in the tarmac) and lost it applying the brake.
Some of the bunch of those behind then forced to brake on the roots were then unlucky to be caught out by bike behaviour.
Speed alone was obviously not the issue as many lines made it through without having to brake, it was a combination of speed plus unlucky part of the tarmac (which is impossible to judge inside a pack) plus something going wrong for a rider ahead that caused all the others to lose control.
- And my comment is that a lot of the writing is due to where the text originated. Obviously it’s going to be AI to avoid copyright and other litigation. Journalism is too expensive for compilation websites.
You say it’s not a criticism of the use of AI so likewise, thank you but I really don’t need someone else to explain that they use AI or other shortcuts for filling their pages.
- So happy for Michael Valgren. After his awful crash a few years back and to win like this. Chapeau. One gutsy ride.
- He wasn’t really there when Pogacar won his first tour, only joining the team in ‘23, but he’s Slovenian so I can only assume they talk about such things. And I’m not surprised. It’s come up more than once that Pogacar had to shift to paying more attention to food. He seems like one of those naturally gifted people (in any field, think of your classmates in school) who got away with not working because they were so good. Just that he’s learned discipline since then, slowly and surely, and has thus continuously improved for the past 7 years.
- Roglic rides for no one but himself.
- Yeah, in 2022 Valgren had a fractured pelvis, dislocated hip, and a damaged meniscus. I'm also happy for him. Hope he still wins some races.
- What are you talking about?
- Chapeau to Michael Valgren for a nice win, and for not giving up on his journey back to the top step of the box.
