Oh that looks very nice, keep us updated and if you are looking for test users, Iโ€™ve done that a lot in a previous career so Iโ€™ll sign up immediately ๐Ÿ˜‰

But did it work?

Maybe. Itโ€™s a bit odd though, the Crelan CXers are on the Devo team (as is Guus but he is actually Devo age) and Cam was last year as well and did road races.

He is not on the Alpecin Devo team, so I really donโ€™t know. We also donโ€˜t know the future of Seven Racing at this moment.

I knew he was out of contract but so were others on the Crelan team as of 28/2 like Meeusen and Sweeck. But he is the only one not renewed, I suppose to make space for Haverdings riding for Crelan next season.

David Haverdings to Alpecin confirmed, but also interesting, no Toon Vandebosch on the team anymore #CX #Alpecin

Very excited about the official announcement on this project I've been helping out with!
Cycling has never been an easy place for LGBTQ+ people so I hope TrueCycling can help make it even a little better!
Please feel free to spread the word :)

There is talk going around he made the same mistake again though. He admitted he is not on race weight yet, and that he under fueled during the TT trying to lose weigh making him boink on the climb.

Itโ€™s just sloppy. I hated how half the CX races would write Tiborโ€™s name wrong not capitalizing the D in Del Grosso. I guess itโ€™s hard feeding names/flags into a compute.

UCI is messing up those flags regularly this season thus far, Kubis suddenly became Slovenian.

Interview at the start today, the auto translate for the Dutch part works fairly well

I just found time to watch it. I love Alpecin for trying but this was just bad content. Lulu is the saving grace, but this just managed to convey nothing but bad camera work, commercials and no insight at all. You deserve better Jasper content ๐Ÿ˜˜

See I donโ€™t mind a boring ass sprint day in the Tour (unless MvdP/Ricky go out to have some fun together ๐Ÿคฃ), as long as itโ€™s a shorter stage. Itโ€™s great for TDF naps, the peloton can rest a bit for attacks in later stages, sprinters get an opportunity. I donโ€™t need 7-8 sprints, but a few is nice.

18.02.2026 13:51 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah itโ€™s not good. Like last year, we had a fantastic first week in the Tour proving the racing is so much more exciting when you donโ€™t make it harder and harder, but this years TDF itโ€™s back to adding more mountains ensuring it wonโ€™t be as much fun.

It looked to be endless. It was a weird one. IDT looked bad in the beginning, seemingly dropping, but in the end he paced it well while others blew up.

18.02.2026 13:27 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah he was cramping up, it is actually surprising he only lost two minutes.

Made me laugh ๐Ÿ˜‚ Ricky just loving those long breakaways with a teammate after the Tour huh ๐Ÿ˜‰

I got curious after I saw you talk about the show a few times and I admit I binged the whole damn thing in two evenings a couple of weeks ago ๐Ÿซฃ
