  Good, then you should also realise how complicated and chaotic it is to completely change timing of such an event and that it won’t be done except in extreme circumstances, the temperatures are not extreme for pros in any way, especially historically, heck amateurs make a point of organising races in far worse conditions just for the experience, Death Valley and the Sahara are prime locations. I expect discussions for earlier future starting times have been held already but that there just isn’t enough justification for change yet. You can tell it’s not a drastic issue within the sport yet, those fighting for change have very few arguments or examples. Sorry but dragging Simpson into it shows desperation and suggesting a blanket time warp from June to September is just a bureaucratic solution to an imaginary problem. Along those lines you should be rewiring the school calendar so kids no longer go during that period, just IN CASE there’s a heatwave. Good luck selling that to parents, especially after everyone’s COVID experience. It seems that very few people can handle looking at global pictures or situations from more than one perspective, all they care about is getting people to bend to their will, with absolutely no concern for other consequences., usually because they don’t realise all that might change.

  Other than probably having tried a PFP diet? He’s making MVDP look like a body builder.

  Good thing he can ride instead of watch then. Sorry but boredom comes through lack of imagination or some other weakness of the mind. EVERYTHING can be interesting depending on the attitude you take to it. If you find this pretty much expected scenario boring, just blot out the leader, pretend he doesn’t exist or matter) and focus on the rest.

  Yes, Tadej should relinquish the yellow jersey to.... Jonas! And then get it back on the mountain stages, just to prove he can!

  Hills, you're right, don't listen to maumau. You can write what ever you want, even the most correct and true comment, maumau will find a new philosophy, known only to him, and he will contradict your thinking. He's doing it to everyone.

  The more I hear from people like Wiggins, the more I realise how suspect Team Sky was.

  Yes, I did all of that before posting, with a few weather sites (not Google), and already knew that they were riding towards a slightly cooler place, but it still ends up with them riding in the hottest part of the day. Several cyclists have called for earlier starting times in general.
