  1.  
    I know it's a common refrain from me, but people really should watch the rest of the year. Carapaz is a literal past GT and Olympics winner. Remco probably the second most well know cyclist of the past 5 years besides maybe Pogacar, if not moreso.

    Yeah. I keep up with the results during the year but usually only end up watching a few.

  2. My pocket guide to right wing humor: you'll look at something like this and think there's got to be more to it. Nope, you already got it. It's just some scumbag sex trafficker calling a woman old. Pronghorn was recently defended by some on this forum as having been alright back when he was just posting porn in I'd Pee In Her Butt. Now, it's mostly just links from his sewer of a twitter feed between midnight and 7am CST. He's truly one of those "high value males" that the red pill grifters talk about.

    Oh yeah, smartypants? Pretty sure he’s rubber and you’re glue!

  3. The stage was a mere 2km too long for Matty. Pogi putting on a show of dominance. 

    I’m a fan of Pogi. I love to see the leader riding aggressively, but would have liked to have seen Matty win the stage.

    Tejay was bitching post race that mean old Pogi should throw a bone to some other riders. When they asked Powless about it he mentioned he should be true to his team who worked their asses off to get him in position to take the stage.

  4. Agreed. Jonas did it more than 2:30 seconds faster than Pantani in 1998. Although, who's to say if the disrupted training didn't actually HELP Jonas? There's no way to say with certainty.

    Of course, with better equipment, better training, a deeper understanding of physiology and recovery etc ... better times are to be expected.  Still ...

    I have no idea but it doesn’t seem like punctured lung, several broken ribs and a broken collarbone a couple of months before Le Tour could be helpful.

    If Pog wins won’t this be the first time since Pantani a rider won the Giro an TdF in the same year?
  5. Got it stripped down to the frame.  PSA if you are going to install stuff on a bike use some %$@#!$% grease!  The cranks and the drive side BB cup did NOT want to come off.  I might need to use the vice to get the peddles off too.  
    Here she is...  she's got a fat ass, but she's light AF.
    I tried to find a place to Hot Tank the frame and just start over on the paint...  but that's a no go so far.  I think I'm going to prep and rattle can over the bare spots.  No dings or deep scratches, but this factory paint job is absolute shit.  Some of the paint is just flaking off.  meh...  it'll add to the character.

    My first serious mt bike was a Klein Pinnacle. Bought the frame and built it up myself. Raced it a couple of seasons then stripped the paint off and went bare aluminum. Pretty stealth looking.
  6. I'm pretty shocked that McKinney is as blue as it is.  I don't recall any rioters being from McKinney, but it is my belief/understanding that the rural/suburban transition, like rural places generally, is what tends to drive Trumpism.  Aided, also, by a lot of nouveau riche type imports who may be confused about elites, leopards and such.
    Plano, too, for that matter, but east Plano has been abandoned to the browns, so I guess that's understandable.

    I’m seeing 1 from McKinney. 5 from Dallas and I guess a few more if you include Dallas County.

  7. Frisco is in Collin County and Denton County. I’m surprised to see Trump’s MOV in Frisco in ‘20, thought it would be higher. However, Denton is the west side of Frisco, which is where the biggest homes are and Denton was big-time Trump in ‘20.

    Yes Denton County part of Frisco as well as Denton County is more conservative.
