Paris Olympics 2024

[Bada-Bing!]

Breadstick only. Still, sad to see Rafa a shadow of his peak self.

Pidcock with a puncture while in the lead, now about 40s back
Still 20-30mins to go, but probably his medal hopes gone

Bloody hell, how has pulled that back?

Thought it was a mistake when it gave us the gap to the group of 2 chasers.

Gained 25 seconds in half a lap. Got 2 laps to get the next 15 seconds. So I less he's blown his load...

Down to 10-14 seconds hell of a ride. How long left?

 

[ncurd]

Now 5 seconds

 

[Which Tyler]

Now 0

If he wins this, no one can doubt how much its earned.

 

[Which Tyler]

And they've kinda-dropped the saffer

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Insane racing,
The guys got a whole TdF in his legs as well!

Explains why he's been killing the climbs, but there's always the risk of burnout

I thought he called off half-way through?
COVID wasn't it?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ah, a quick google shows you're right - I'm just going off them saying he was in the TdF this season

 

[Which Tyler]

I was going from memory of pre-race commentary

 

[Which Tyler]

I'm happy with either of the first two winning it - just not the saffer

 

[Which Tyler]

Holy duck!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Collision!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Looks to me like Pidcock was in the right there, he was on his line and the French rider came from the outside into him


What a ride! Incredible drama
I love the Olympics!

 

[ncurd]

Amazing!

Do we know if that collision will be reviewed?

He was also so fast that he would pass him no matter what.

 

[Which Tyler]

Time to get jealous - I wanna be messing about in the water.

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Gotta love Pidcock. Stacked full of attitude.
