The latter...
Started horrible and just got worse.
He's reminding me of an overheard conversation in a bike shop.
"What shorts are you using at the moment."
"Well, I always wear at least three pairs of shorts, which seems like a lot."
Yes. That does seem like a lot.
It's a Castorama tribute, and I like it.
Average speed of Paris-Nice so far today... 55kph. Crosswind fun for all the family.
It reminds me of the head-shaving era of the 2000s.
Watched a bit of a one-hit-wonders show on BBC last night. "Where Do You Go To (My Lovely)" would be such a wonderfully creepy name for a Life 360-type tracking app.
I haven't seen any more than you have.
Don't double screen with Strade Bianche.
UAE trying to work out how to fill the podium.
Activating emergency back-up race.
All the same -- not his job to make it exciting.
Feeling some sympathy for the TV commentators attempting to frantically foot-pump some suspense into men's Strade Bianche. Pogacar is deeply impressive, and I'm always here for that. But less would do.
Yup. It's probably a metaphor.
You should try N. Irish Tayto as well, if you haven't already. A little more cheese, a little less onion.
But Strade Bianche only started a few years ago... oh.
Damn kids.
Reminds me of the non-existent Tour de France stages I used to live-tweet on rest days to cause panic among those who thought they were missing something.
"Roglic and Froome are up the road together -- they've got four minutes already!"
I've got a Ph.D. in International Law, and I'd explain it if I could.
His team mates were well up yesterday too. So the question is... are they strong or are they tired?
Once rowed in an eight with eight people called James, and me.
In which I explain my theory that there are only two varieties of genuine bike race, and everything else is novelty click-bait.

Ski mountaineering sounded epic. Turns out to be running up a flight of steps and skiing back down. It's a lot more helter-skelter adjacent than I expected.
One of my ambitions in life is to appeal for calm.
Today's major victory -- I noticed that my worst ever racing result is missing from ProCyclingStats. And as we all know, if it's not on ProCyclingStats, it never happened.
Tour of UAE stage 3 about to ignite. Up til now it's been live coverage of Silvan Dillier and Jonas Rickaert in an excellent 2-up break training for the classics, and I've enjoyed every minute of it.
Peter Bryan interviewed me several times when he was well into his eighties. I think you need to wait till the rider is a quarter your age.
A friend of my father's died while staying in The Ritz on Christmas Day, which always felt somewhat similar.
Happy to offer a solution.
