Cycling thread, or Randall wondering why people watch cycling

I'm surprised this one hasn't been here yet.

Roglic has been solid throughout the Tour so far, and he's a time trials specialist.
Hopefully someone like Lopez or Landa can make the top spots interesting.

Pogacar using doping? Can't see another explanation to how he is so much faster than literally anyone else in the field.
Also, Roglic blew his energy on the Loze past Thursday.

Did you know that the best cyclists need to wake up in the middle of the night to exercise to keep their blood pumping if they use drugs? Otherwise their heart beats too slowly when they sleep.

Of course not. Nothing beats snooker. Only when the master Ronnie is at the table.

Still can't believe what Tadej did yesterday. To give Primoz two minutes at time trial... Unreal!!!
And he is only 21.
