>Belgian men are sharing nude photos of their partners on dozens of websites and in social media groups. Usually, the photos are taken secretly and also distributed against the will of their wife or girlfriend, VRT research shows. The men comment on the photos and often do so in a very sexist manner. They use words like slut and whore. The photos are advertised as 'unaware': victims do not realize that they are being photographed. It happens on social media, such as in Facebook groups, but also on websites and in Telegram chats with thousands of members. The photos show women, for example, in the shower or sleeping.

I was hyped for the Tour stages a while back but looking at them now, it's kinda disappointing that there aren't really the BIG days in the Alps or Pyrenees — is this the fewest HC climbs we've seen in a while? on the other hand, more punchy climbs might make for more entertaining racing than the big slurping climbs

it was juicy man roglic was such an asshole. During the first week he was playing up how he does not care about anything and isn't even trying, didn't follow any action and lost time for no reason but instead of riding for lipowitz he fucked around and in one 3rd week stage roglic went solo only to blow up brutally resulting in a 10 minute loss while lipowitz got dropped by the leaders and almost lost 3rd place to onley, lucky for them that one had nothing left in the next stages.

will be interesting to see what the german state media has to say to remco because last year they were kind of talking shit to roglic's face after some stages, taunting him even. I think that made him try and one up lipowitz, could be kino if they do something like that to remco especially if he falls a bit behind.

I'm getting very tired of all you people complaining about the weather.

Here in the US, we routinely deal with extreme heat, cold, storms, rain, floods, blizzards, tornados, hurricanoes, cataracts, etc etc. We deal with adverse weather so much we even developed advanced technology such as air conditioning and sophisticated ways of measuring the weather such as heat index and windchill.

And you never hear us complain once, because we just live with it and it's fine.

What is this, seems odd and I don't exactly know how to approach this.
This is supposedly a two-side ceramicspeed OSBB 46mm, no inside dust cover, it came with this frameset: https://www.specialized.com/pl/pl/s-works-roubaix-sl4-frameset/p/65188?color=174555-65188

I haven't seen this before but I also assume it's a regular pressfit bb. The protruding cup looks like it may be something like a reduction shell from bb30 to 24mm?

Yeah, seen this skewer/torch like tool I guess that bb is pretty similar. I guess this time it is still going to shop, would like to have the headset regreased as well and I don't feel like having patience.
Or maybe. Does pressing it back in take a lot hassle or is it rather straightforward, don't even have to be that careful?

>how are they going to force every single pm in the peloton to read the same
If they're not utterly insane, they would only look for suspicious changes in power data over time, so absolute numbers being comparable across the peloton wouldn't be important and some constant error wouldn't be a problem. Though the power meter would still have to perform consistently over a long period of time and under different environmental conditions (IIRC some power meters are affected by temperature, for example), so you probably would need some kind of calibration anyway.
In any case, I don't see how they can reasonably ensure the authenticity of the data. Seems like something that would be trivial to tamper with.

from what I read in the article they're going to go off total Kj/spent per race

>Peter Leo, sports scientist and trainer at WorldTeam Jayco AlUla, previously told Velo that the kilojoule training load would be central to the data system. The models developed in the first tests will monitor a rider's performance over a longer period, rather than exceptional, one-off performances.

>“They analyze kilojoules both retrospectively and prospectively and try to establish threshold values,” Leo outlines. “That is a more robust method than just looking at power values. It is more resilient to outliers.”

>“Of course, I would like to compete for the general classification, but that seems impossible to me at the moment, on my own. Being in top form with everyone in the Tour, and that is not the case right now,” he says, referring to his EF Education EasyPost teammates. “It is important to remain realistic.”

>So what can we expect from the Tokyo Olympic champion? “First of all, I hope to perform the same as I did two or three years ago,” he says, referring to the 2024 Tour. That year, Carapaz won a mountain stage and the polka-dot jersey. “If there is a possibility to take the yellow jersey, then naturally I won’t pass it up. If not, then there will come a moment when we have to ease off a bit.”

>“Then we’ll see what opportunities remain. The ride to Alpe d’Huez is a beautiful day and something I am really looking forward to. It is a particularly tough stage. But, in practice, things can turn out completely differently. As a rider, you also have to be smart, know which breakaway to sneak into, and seize the opportunities that present themselves with both hands.”

This being mostly a pedestrian bike shop is probably the case but they are an authorized Trek retailer, they sell all your Emondas and Checkpoints.
I gave them my bike once, when I thought I have guided the cables right and I didn't they had to do the magnet trick but they also made a big deal out of it.
I guess a very human quality - the desire to be perceived as a knower who has access to arcane knowledge so if you can't then no one can - also speaks through them.

Hub ARTZ overtakes dylan at checkpoint 3 despite not having any times at 1 & 2

grug has become very boring tbh
barely even the same person as early grug

In a sense grug has become ROGLIC (except with results), phoning it in and doing the bare minimum

but also in general during road cycling, he now looks at a stage, sees a hill where pogacar or another climber can possibly beat him and just doesn't try at all the entire stage

Alas, the older you are the less free will you have, you know what you have to thus know what you cannot, your decisions become more predetermined as life goes by.

this goes for 99% of the pedalton don't kid yourself, all grug cares (and 2bh should care) about is classics and an occasional tdf stage

I mean even the recent tour de suisse, Vacek tried to follow pog and succeeded
old grug would have been on that wheel till he popped, new grug dropped in the first 50 meters of the climb
it's just lame

Sweating is actually a sign of heat adaptation. You're supposed to start cooling off earlier
