It was also extremely dangerous. I was really pleased to see even the guys in the front group tip-toeing (relative to their ability) around the turns and avoiding the paint. Mahoric was going to do Mahoric stuff, but it was great the organizers allowed people to race but didn't penalize those who decided to pull the plug. I love the sprint on the Champs Elysee, but this was close to perfect.01-08-2025 22:13

These police and organizers are out there every day for hours, trying to make an inherently dangerous activity safe for the riders and reasonably pleasant and well-organized for millions of spectators who get to watch for free. I am amazed that they react so quickly to a potentially life-threatening situation, and get it just about perfect. Chapeau.23-07-2025 23:06

Hard to believe Johannessen gets away with sweeping across the road through the middle of the group, causing a crash, and gets no yellow card.17-07-2025 02:04

He was in the left gutter and saw a nothing-burger move going up the right side. He had clear road ahead of him, but instead of jumping and going right after clearing the group like virtually every other pro, he swerved straight through the middle of the group. In an amateur race, this would have brought down 5 guys and sent 2 to the hospital. No one on any team wants to ride with someone like this. Hopefully they make that abundantly clear to him.17-07-2025 01:00

Johannessen diving from the left gutter all the way across the group to follow a move going up the right side was a straight up bush league move at any level of racing. He had clear road ahead of him. Hopefully someone will teach him how not to chop wheels.16-07-2025 17:47

Jorgenson made a mistake. He could have ridden to help his team and himself. He said his radio was spotty and he wasn't sure if WVA was still in play. Hopefully he'll get another shot.07-07-2025 02:06

Dang, she needs to figure out how things work in the world, and what to say. Jonas has a great family, and that seems to underpin a lot of his success as an athlete. But there is a reason why family is family, and not in the TwitterDome.07-07-2025 02:03

Why are they checking for motor-doping? They can just check for motors. If someone is using a pneumatic drill to administer PEDs, they kinda deserve to win.03-07-2025 13:40

It's really cool to hear one generational talent so humbly laud another, perhaps the greatest of all time. Fans can have their opinion, but when a guy who has actually done it and made the sacrifices offers high praise, it hits different.19-06-2025 14:42
