Tour de France just kicked off, I might be a bit distracted for the next 21 day.
@martinus Hilarious! 😂
Is that the same guy, who also ran on clickshoes past other cyclists in a race? 🏃♂️ 🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴
(Found that video at https://brotka.st/objects/ba64f477-c41c-49f5-ade1-c0d8008cea71 and never got an answer there who/where/when it was) @mariusor @CiclistaRubio

Le Tour starts in 6 days. Garden art Is almost ready #tdf #TDF2024 #tourdefrance #cycleracing #unchained
So after doing a bit of digging it does look like (in the UK, at least) Discovery+ provides the same cycle racing content as GCN+, including cyclo-cross coverage. It's just a shame that you are paying for a whole bunch of other content...
The last day of the Road Cycling European Championships was in Drenthe today. The Elite Men's race started in Assen very close to where we live but we decided to ride out into the countryside to see them go by there instead and maybe ride a long for a bit with them.
This turned out to be impractical. It was difficult to tell when they'd arrive, and when they did so each group zoomed past at 50 km/h making it impossible to catch up from a standing start. There were also a lot of people around watching the race so we couldn't cycle at full speed on the cycle-paths.
But in any case it was a fun thing to do.

Taking parcels to the post office today I stopped by a roundabout which temporarily has "bicycle art" on it. I then cycled on to a DIY shop to buy insulation because with the removal of the gas supply last winter we need to insulate the one relatively uninsulated room which remains in our home. That room was the boiler room but as there are no longer any gas appliances in our home we can reclaim it.
We're striving to reduce our environmental footprint in every way that we can.
And why do we have "bicycle art" on all the roundabouts in Assen at the moment ? Because the Road Cycling European Championships, "the pinnacle of cycling events on our continent" are going to be here in Drenthe on 20-24th of September.

There will be five days of events in all, 1000 riders will fly in from 40 different countries to ride their bikes for a few km, accompanied the whole time by ludicrous numbers of support and press vehicles as well as a few helicopters, and then they'll fly home again.
It will be spectacular but it's also incredibly irresponsible. International sport, including cycling, has a **huge** carbon footprint. It is literally killing people and needs to stop.
