I don't know if anyone follows Midpack_memes on instagram but they post some hilarious content

There's a video on Twitter of the altercation.  Best Buddies didn't cover themselves in glory, but Justin Williams really made an effort to throw the first punch.  He had to reach past his brother to do so.  

For a guy who is the biggest thing in domestic racing and runs the biggest team, it's incredibly disappointing to see that he doesn't have the presence of mind to know that it hurts not only his brand for racing in general.  

His brother posting something that also comes across to me as arrogant and further fanning flames.

"The rider who collided with me was waiting to confront us at the finish line, openly sharing with our staff that he was 'going to fight me'. What should have been a moment of celebration, and could have been an opportunity for him to apologise and move on, turned into us responding to his uncontrolled aggression and resulting in us defending ourselves."

One of the reasons I've never been able to get into Crits as a spectator is that the protagonists are so frequently bullies and hotheads.

For the Francophones among us:  David Gaudu recounting the 2022 Tour on Twitch. 2:40 of inside the peloton commentary.

@GregHoge I much more interested in what your internet search was that led you to this video

@StephenAschkenes LOL. Actually saw it on GCN.

Also, 60kph?!?

 I accidentally had closed captions on while I was watching Peacock's Vuelta race highlights on YouTube.

I might keep it on for how their program transcribes names.

This is the third or fourth variation I've seen on Remco Evenepoel.  I think there was one that read "Remco avin a pole"


I've also seen "Primo row glitch" for Primoz Roglic

Pure drivel , a bit like the actual commentary , Phil is on the keyboard?

haha, of course these are done via artificial intelligence, and can be quite fun!

Movistar’s Netflix has a new season:
https://www.netflix.com/us/title/81130094?s=i&trkid=13747225&vlang=en&clip=81260328

Watched the first 2 episodes , so far I'm on "Supermans" team .
Fair play to Movistar , because non of these series shower them in glory .

Oh my...

Sweet baby jesus in a Rapha skinsuit hopping the barriers. What did I just read?

I am avoiding the temptation to link to the youtube video.

Probably, whether we like it or not, Lance is influential and not going away.

I try to ignore him as much as possible, altho I have listened to the podcast on occasion, still wonder how any of this would look like if Hincapie wasn't his friend/sidekick, and still hope all of them better acknowledge how absolutely bad Armstrong was

-- they wont, the line that by now everyone close to Lance has taken is that "everyone was doing it back then, you needed to"

I also totally understand this current pursuit, as at least in Lance's view, it legitimizes all of it.

oh well.

He's definitely not going away. I'm most shocked that it's been TEN YEARS since the Oprah thing. Seems like an impossibly large number of years.

Maghalie Rochette is everything you want cycling to be.

The level of pro in this video is the hotness. From now I'll be writing all my reports in French. 

Puck Pieterse has been making the typical Euro CX course laps go pro videos, they are great because of the access she has -- like Marianna Vos will ask her for tips, for example... but I specially love love love this one from the last World Cup weekend:
