Hey TDF Fans! and ICW Fans! #stage20TDF
It’s the last day of the Tour de France, the yellow jersey has been decided, congrats to Pogacar. The tour has been changed this year with the ceremonial parade and sprint finish being turned upside down. The stage has been planned to create more attacks and excitement on the final stage. The stage will see 3 ascents of a cobbled climb called the Butte Mont Martre, this will most likely set up the perfect launch point for a breakaway. The sprinters will be doing everything to keep the breaks under control as they compete for final glory on the Champs ElysĆ©e’s. #biketerra

live. Welcome back. Welcome to those new peopleĀ
that are here today. Guys, I can’t believe it. Stage 21 of the 2025 Tour to France. I survived.Ā
Some days I didn’t think I would survive. Uh I’ve already made some comments there in the in theĀ
live chat. If you’re a lurker, today is the dayĀ Ā to get into the live chat, guys. Today’s the dayĀ
to get in. I’m jumping into my chat right now. Uh, I got to somehow figure out how to make thisĀ
uh night mode so I don’t get blinded so bad. Guys, incredible stage ash today. We’re not goingĀ
to have our same old snoozefest. You know,Ā Ā when you wake up and you’re like, “Yeah, I don’tĀ
need to watch the first couple hours because it’s just going to be the sprint at the finish.”Ā
That’s what the tour to France has been to meĀ Ā outside of the 89 time trial stage, which I neverĀ
got to watch. I just saw highlights of it later. That’s what the tour to France has been to meĀ
for the 40 years I’ve been watching the tourĀ Ā to France. Let’s go through the GC and then weĀ
really need to take a good look at the course. Uh the course is actually quite fascinating todayĀ
to me. I’m just going to move some stuff aroundĀ Ā here. Let me get situated guys. You know theĀ
routine every day again. Dudes, OG watchers, guys, all your names. I do remember everyone.Ā
Uh Ian Holmes, have a good day. Hey, Ian, we got to still structure our uh our ride, dude.Ā
I don’t know how we’re doing it with 12 hoursĀ Ā apart. Uh but we got to figure that out. I thinkĀ
it’s still going to be best on a weekend. So, super early for me. I have no problems gettingĀ
up super early and doing a ride. I just got toĀ Ā check the Tour to France fem race schedule toĀ
see how it conflicts. I don’t want you riding at midnight. Uh so, let me work on that. Uh Ian’sĀ
here. I’m going to get this into live chat mode. Guys, so if you don’t know, I’ve already doneĀ
stage two of the tour to France fems this morning. Uh, another great stream. Started out slowĀ
yesterday. You know, just looking at numbers, just to give you uh reference, maybe 2500 viewsĀ
yesterday. Perfect. That works for me. Today, it was already at 5,000 views. And there’sĀ
so many knowledgeable people in there. Uh, I want to see more ladies in there. I want toĀ
see more women riders in there. Uh, we’ve gotĀ Ā some great people in there. There’s a rider inĀ
there, uh, a viewer. Anyways, I call her Dream Team. I think it I don’t even know if it’s a ladyĀ
or a man. I don’t know. Uh, she’s got a hard name for me to say, so I just nicknamed her Dream Team.Ā
You know, my standard thing I do. Uh, a wealth of knowledge about women’s cycling. Uh, Robert’s beenĀ
in there a lot. Uh, I think R. Stanley’s been in there and they can they can back me up on this.Ā
Dream Team knows a lot about women’s cycling, so it’s really been helping me out. Uh, okay. inĀ
uh let’s figure out something here hopefully next weekend. Uh Edwin again, Edwin Feno here. ThanksĀ
for your live, dude. Watch from the Philippines, dude. Thank you for being here. I think uh theĀ
country that watches the most is the Philippines. So, let me just uh get down here, guys. ProbablyĀ
be a little bit of a slow start. R Stanley, big weekend for R. Stanley. Went on a flow trip downĀ
the Illinois River yesterday and now preparingĀ Ā to take the trek out. 95 degrees today. Dude, thisĀ
is why I ride my bike inside. Guys, let’s jump in. Uh, we’ll get there. You know, I’ve got the bikeĀ
terra floating in the background. That’s not whatĀ Ā I want to be showing you there. Let’s just jumpĀ
out. I I want to show you the stage itself. Okay, this is actually a long video. So, let’sĀ
get into it. Fascinating course today. So instead of doing the the parade out in theĀ
countryside that kind of bored me to death the entire 40 years I’ve been watching the tour ofĀ
France and watching the sprint at the finish.Ā Ā We do the traditional ride out in the countryside.Ā
We go into Paris. I think we do. We’re going along the sane river here all the way past the uh theĀ
Eiffel Tower. All sorts of cool stuff. I don’t even know about these gardens here. I think weĀ
go through the museum right here. Watch. We go through the museum. We’ve seen that before. ThisĀ
is where things get different now. I think we doĀ Ā the shams le four times. I think it’s going toĀ
show you right here. We do four passages around those big gardens there. So, they’re trying to mixĀ
it up. More excitement, more drama, maybe leading to more exciting finishes. Then we divert. NowĀ
we go into the Olympic road course from 2024. We take off here. Uh this is all brand new and thisĀ
is probably going to blow the tour apart today. What a fascinating city. I really likeĀ
the architecture. Uh you’re going to see when we get up the but de monre I think it’sĀ
called right here called de la mon matre. Uh got this giant castle at the top. Look at theseĀ
apartment buildings that are right here. Uh I’d love to live that close to the that you know theĀ
cool buildings but I don’t know if I’d want to live in an apartment building like this. I don’tĀ
think I could live that way. I like being out inĀ Ā the country solo. Walk out the door, do whateverĀ
you want. Then we go back down the shams again, do the gardens route, back up again to smashĀ
riders part. We do it a six time back around the gardens again up the third time up aroundĀ
that church. Come back down and we finish uh on the finishing straight there on the Shamsly. It’sĀ
going to be brutal. Sprinters are upset that they are not getting their time in the spotlight today.Ā
Uh the tour changes every year. I’m learning so much watching the tour to France fems. They giveĀ
different points for the green jersey. Uh they have time bonuses out on the course. So there’llĀ
be like another little point on the course. Okay. So let’s get here. Okay. So I’m not even liveĀ
yet. Uh what is this saying? Are we live here? I am. They have departed. Uh we have started here.Ā
Let me get into the live stage guys. The route I may have to refresh this. This looks like we’reĀ
not live live right now. Not sure why we’re not. Let’s give it a quick refresh here and hopefullyĀ
we can get right in there. The live stage here, guys. I’m just trying to get into it today.Ā
Yeah, I see that. We may not be getting any data yet just because we’re in the neutralized start.Ā
Usually I would see the map. Let’s take a look atĀ Ā the map overhead view here. Uh, yep. Super bright.Ā
We know that. Uh, this is where they divert off. So, we’re going to do some passages of theĀ
Shams first. Then we come out around those huge gardens there. This is where we pass through theĀ
museum on the very bottom of the map right here.Ā Ā We will pass through the museum back out, loop theĀ
gardens, and then we take up take off up here. Oh, this could be pretty technical here, too. GoingĀ
around this little uh area here. Lata line,Ā Ā whatever that is. Uh this is where we’re going upĀ
the cat for a climb. Not like it’s a huge climb, but it’s going to be launching points for attacks.Ā
Jonathan Milan and Pogy riding together. Poggy now has his left arm bandaged in black today.Ā
Jonathan Milan in the green jersey as I wait for this to go live. Uh, usually it wouldĀ
say live right here. So, let’s just get them through the neutralized start. This happenedĀ
with the the fem race this morning, too. So, uh, just waiting to see how to get in hereĀ
today. It would usually say live right here beneath it. So, we’re not getting any liveĀ
yet. I’ll just keep browsing around here, guys. Uh, no. I don’t need an Airbnb, so let me justĀ
hang out here for now. Uh, cheers. You must be very tired with all this info you had together,Ā
dude. Yeah, I’ve been really tired. Uh, Thursday,Ā Ā Friday, the tour were both early days. ThenĀ
Saturday, I had to get up early again to do the men’s tour. Then I did a second stream ofĀ
the FEM’s tour. Uh, there’s going to be lots of bridge crossings today, too. earlier in theĀ
stage. I’m actually seeing one right now. Let me get this going over here as I still wait. NotĀ
sure why that’s not showing up. Let’s look at the rankings here. So, general rankings after stageĀ
20. Someone was asking earlier, will Pogy win? The only way Pogy can’t win right now is if heĀ
retires from the race today. Uh, he’s got a 4minut and 24 second lead on Yonas Fingo. So, he will beĀ
the champion of the tour to France. Going to back out of here quickly and looking for this live,Ā
which I’m not seeing for some reason. I’m actually going to try to fire up another tab, guys, justĀ
in case something’s acting funny here. Um, let’s get this going. Come on. Learn to type columnĀ
should pop up right away. I want that one there. So that was yesterday. We don’t need to seeĀ
that. We’ve seen the start here. We need the route. This guy here. Yeah, it would usually sayĀ
live right below it here. So, we’re just going to stick it there for now. See lots of hearts goingĀ
off here. 100%. We’re getting a lot of 100%, too. Okay. Uh Robert Lwick, good morning. get toĀ
watch the live feed, not just listening today at home. Have a great Cassidy, dude. Thank you soĀ
much, Robert. I know you’ve been around here quiteĀ Ā a bit. Uh Melanie, hi sir from the Philippines.Ā
Let’s go Tatty for the win. Thanks a lot. Thank you for being here too. Got 164 people watchingĀ
already. Guys, smash the like button and don’t forget tours is going on as well. Uh we have BikeĀ
Terra rocking in the background right now. Um got some cool new stuff to show you today. I’ve gotĀ
increased draw distance now. uh better graphicsĀ Ā quality I believe. So I was playing with itĀ
just earlier. The amount of detail that you see on there is incredible. So it will come in handyĀ
today. I’ll show you what I can when I know where I’m at because when there’s multiple breaks, thereĀ
might be people on different laps of that circuitĀ Ā depending who falls out the back. Some of theĀ
riders just might make this a ceremonial parade. They might say, “Oh, we don’t care if we finishĀ
half an hour behind. We’re going to take our timeĀ Ā at the back. Drimp champagne champagne.” uh andĀ
enjoy ourselves. So, still waiting for a live feed from Tour to France here, guys. Uh Joe here.Ā
Okay, Joe, thank you so much for checking that, Joe. Yeah, guys, when you see me talking likeĀ
that, I’m kind of like, that’s hint hint, wink,Ā Ā wink, nudge, nudge. Can someone check it for me?Ā
Uh Joe is saying here too, tour website has not started its live tracking. The women did that thisĀ
morning, too. Uh it took a while to get it going. Uh, who we seen here? Ivon Romeo Abad under 23Ā
time trial champion here for Moastar. Bandaged up pretty hard on his left side. I think he wasĀ
one of the riders that crashed yesterday. So Joe, thanks for checking that. Uh Joe was saying FEM’sĀ
tour was great this morning. I don’t think mostĀ Ā people knew about it. They’re probably justĀ
looking for the men’s tour. 229 watching now, guys. Fantastic. Uh remember guys, this is theĀ
last day. This is the last day. Uh Joey Jojo is the one that said, “Hey, why don’t you doĀ
this?” She saw another dude not doing cycling,Ā Ā guys. Uh not at all. And he was doing baseballĀ
and he wasn’t on camera. He wasn’t commentating. He basically had a radio feed that he wasĀ
snagging from probably a local radio station. You guys know if if wherever city you live in,Ā
whether it’s football, baseball, basketball,Ā Ā there’s probably a radio feed broadcastingĀ
somewhere. He was snagging that feed, dropping it into his stream, not on camera, andĀ
just showing stats. And then once in a while, he would jump on camera because he was in he wasĀ
in the chat the whole time. I like doing it thisĀ Ā way, but uh yeah, all credit goes to Joey JojoĀ
for making me do this. Paul Salon, stupid unsafe course, risk crash 21, and riders unable to finishĀ
tour. Yeah, dude. It uh they’ve really changed uh the 21st stage of the tour to Francis here. Uh,Ā
I’ve heard that the climb is very, very narrow, cobbled. Uh, it could be pretty brutal. So,Ā
we’ll see. I think the riders that are, you know, half an hour back, they’re not going to contestĀ
it. Pogy just has to stay safe today. I mean, it would be crazy if something happened to him onĀ
the on the final stage. So, it looks like here on flow bikes, it’s still a few kilometers to theĀ
actual official start, which I got to imagine is going to be very neutralized today. But,Ā
who knows? I think there’s still 14 teams. So, we had Kaden Groves win yesterday. Very emotionalĀ
win for him. Uh, Alpison’s already won two stages this year. So, it’s probably still 14 teams thatĀ
haven’t won a thing yet. Maybe they’re going to attack from the very beginning. They’re so farĀ
behind. Let’s get a stage win. Uh, good morning to you all. Did another 10K this morning. NiceĀ
job, Jay. before the heat kicks in. Kim Lasell,Ā Ā I got to the live feed, but only the caravan isĀ
going. Okay, so Kim’s at the live feed. Okay, I would love to see that. I can’t even see theĀ
map yet, Kim. Uh, I’m looking for it here on the website right now. Usually, it would flashĀ
up right now. It would let me click this here. I can’t click anything yet. So, mountain passesĀ
and hills. Actually, let’s look at the sporting stakes. So, we got 20 at the sprint point. Uh,Ā
we’ve got 50 at the end. There are time bonuses, but yeah, I don’t have any I don’t have anythingĀ
live yet. I don’t know why, but Kim saying she got to it. Uh, JT Taylor, really glad you’reĀ
doing LFM. Yeah, dude. It’s It’s awesome. It’s awesome racing. Uh, crazy awesome finish today.Ā
Uh, you know me, I always cheer the breakaway. Always cheering the breakaway, bro. Bike Terra.Ā
Morning Colin. Great work with the FEM stream. We’re doing our best to support FEM startingĀ
tomorrow. Yeah. Uh I might have mentioned that.Ā Ā So this is Bike Terra here, guys. This is theĀ
app that helps us view the racing better. And I spoke with Matt directly this morning and he saidĀ
he’s doing everything he can to get uh the fems up for tomorrow. There’s quite a few groups in theĀ
FEM. It was a super tough course this morning. Bike terror would have been perfect for it to showĀ
it. Uh again, Bike Terror, thank you for all yourĀ Ā support. Uh, I’ve got an official subscriptionĀ
now, guys. So, I’ve got a ton of routes. I found a really nice route to ride uh where my mom lives inĀ
uh Victoria, BC, Canada. So, I’ll be doing a nice little 10mi ride this morning before I have to goĀ
out again today and get ready for tomorrow. Uh, David Gistler here. Thank you, Colin, for a greatĀ
tour. What do you think of Primos doing Valta? I think Primos will do Lvalta, and I hope he does.Ā
You’re saying Tatty is supposed to do the Valta? I heard they’re making an announcement this weekĀ
uh about his plans for Lavalta. Still trying to get to the route, guys. So, Kim said she got toĀ
it. Kim, if you’ve got uh if you can explain how you got there, I’d love to know that. I’m justĀ
going to bounce around a little bit between uh the data here. So, here’s our generalĀ
classification. Guys, whilst I’m here again, I’ll show you this part for those that justĀ
jumped in. Here’s going to be the course asĀ Ā I wait on the feed to come through. Let’s takeĀ
a look here. Let me blow this up for you. Um, it’s kind of a crazy stage today. So, just watchĀ
that as I kind of wait for the stream to comeĀ Ā through. Actually, Flow Bikes has lost the streamĀ
now. So, I’m waiting for that to come back, too. Don’t pop leaving. How’s it going?Ā
Race about to start soon. Uh they’reĀ Ā in the neutralized start and I’m stillĀ
waiting to get live data from the tour to France. It’s not up. Uh Joe checkedĀ
for me, but Kim says she’s got it,Ā Ā but only the caravans left. Uh and looks likeĀ
Flo is experiencing some difficulties. I don’t really necessarily need that part. Okay. TourĀ
to France site shows 4 minutes until the start. Uh, oh gosh, didn’t know the ladies went firstĀ
today. Missed it. Dude, just throw it on laterĀ Ā when you’re having a nap on the couch. Uh, justĀ
kind of take it in. Yeah, they flip-flopped it today. So, when I was studying the ladies, cuz I’mĀ
like, how can I do both? And then when I started digging into the times, the ladies generallyĀ
start, I think, at about 7:30 in the morning,Ā Ā my time. So, that’s going to be better for me. IĀ
can get my chores and even a bike ride in before I do it. I’m generally up at 5:00 a.m. anyways,Ā
but these 3:00 starts, they’ve been they’ve beenĀ Ā brutal. Uh you’re like in a whole differentĀ
reality. Uh it’s like up at 3. And you know, when I say I’m up at 3:20, I’m actually up atĀ
2. Kind of like rolling around in bed going,Ā Ā “Okay, well, I might as well get up.” And I’mĀ
that person. If I’m if I need to be up at 3:00, I get out of bed at 2:30. Then the next day,Ā
I’m like, “It’s 2:15. Yeah, might as well getĀ Ā up now.” The day after 2:00. Yeah, we might asĀ
well get up anyways. Get the coffee going early and next thing you know I’m up two hours beforeĀ
I need to be. Neutral start. We got Pogy Yonas riding together here with who are they ridingĀ
with? There are some rain jackets on today. So, are we anticipating rain? So guys, that’s theĀ
course today. It’s going to be insane. I want to get to the actual route. Give me the route.Ā
So Kim, if you can tell me how you got there. I’m just going to jump to stage 10 here. So, what youĀ
should normally do is you should be seeing a live at some point. Oh, look back. Tuloose, Tuloose,Ā
the Hodiccom. That’s where Pogy really broke Yonas. That was one of the big points. The nextĀ
day, he took 36 seconds out of him at the parags. Uh then Timman Erandsman up at Super BanersĀ
for a stage win. Carcasson uh that looks like Tim Wellens to me. Rusty at M Pelier. M Pelier toĀ
Mv Vonu. Great battle going out there. Valentine Perry Pon taking the win. Boline to Valance.Ā
Jonathan Milan here in the soaking wet rain. That’s where that rider got leveled off his bike.Ā
Uh who is this here? Maybe it’s the Oh, that’s probably Florian. It’s a Red Bull rider deckedĀ
in white. Best young rider. Third place overall. Then we did Cororchvel called de la Ben O’Ā
Connor went on a flyer. Then time and Aronson again up Llana. That was the shortened stageĀ
down to 93K due to the distress of the farmers in the area. What is this guy? This guy’s gotĀ
a special jersey on too. I have no idea who this even is. Uh looks like the UAE riders thatĀ
might have been Mark Solair. And it looks like the UAE riders have got some kind of specialĀ
white and yellow jersey on. Then we went to uh yesterday’s stage Nua to Pontaria. ThatĀ
was a great stage two. The rain, the hills,Ā Ā Caden grows for the win. And today we are at stageĀ
21. Still not live. So waiting on that still guys. Uh Carl Ramdale here says Pog is going to the VAĀ
his interviews. Now Cole Kane’s here. Uh, jumping back, guys. Just got to jump back. I’m actuallyĀ
looking for Kim. See if she can give me Yeah, I’m still neutralized. Start here. Oh, Bogi isĀ
doing some funny riding. He’s wiggling his bikeĀ Ā back and forth like he’s going to crash. Yeah, UAEĀ
has special jerseys on, guys. Uh, looks like most of them do. I don’t think Jonathan Ariva just doesĀ
cuz he’s got his Spanish jersey on. I think it is. It’s hard to tell from this angle. Tim Wellins inĀ
his Belgium jersey. Pogy all in yellow. Uh UAE is at the front of the Pelaton. They’re ridingĀ
about 100 meters off the front. They’ve allĀ Ā got yellow socks on, yellow gloves, yendle yellowĀ
handlebar tape. Okay, let me get caught up. Good morning from Saudi. I’m ready with you all for anĀ
exciting last day of the tour to France. Me too,Ā Ā Cole. Thank you for all your support. Tony’s here.Ā
Morning, Colin. Is Pogy going to Alta or is he too tired? Dude, I thought he would be too tired, butĀ
people here are saying he’s going. I heard there’sĀ Ā an announcement coming this week. He looks likeĀ
he’s so done with being at the tour to France. He’s done too much racing this year. He needsĀ
to almost go back to Monaco, wherever he lives, and or maybe back home, Slovenia. Race radioĀ
coming through here. Let’s see what they got saying as I still wait for a live feed. Uh UAEĀ
saying, “What is happening? I have no idea. We take the photo, guys. Oh, they’re just wonderingĀ
if they’ve had their uh ceremonial photos. So,Ā Ā they’re going to do all the ceremonial start hereĀ
and then I want the racing to start. I really hope this isn’t just a ceremonial drag. Quite a bitĀ
of road furniture here, too. This is kind of aĀ Ā sketchy road. Very sketchy road. Like, if this wasĀ
actual racing, there’d be crashes everywhere. Um, let’s get caught up. Cortasi. Uh, Cortasi’s back. Absolute Pogy supporter.Ā
Wasn’t it the Danes who said Yonas is a better climber than the Pogy? He may be, but not thisĀ
year. Jonas not happy that Pogy is going to. Uh, I actually hope he decides not to. I’d like toĀ
see someone else there. Poggy’s the best climber.Ā Ā This is Carl’s Rams. Hey Carl, where you from?Ā
I think it’s your first time here. Maybe you’ve been lurking a little bit. Now they’re doing theĀ
photos. Arms around each other. One of them couldĀ Ā just easily crash here doing stuff like this onĀ
the last day. I don’t know. Little bit little bit suspect. Uh Dean Gavar is here. No live stream.Ā
Dude, I can’t even get into the website right now. I’m watching the video through Flow Bikes.Ā
Uh the website, it even says in the comments, I’ll show you what I’m allowed to show you. IĀ
can’t get into the live stream now. Can anyone else see the uh the data coming from TwitterĀ
to friends? Because I cannot get to it. I keep refreshing it. Joe said he couldn’t get toĀ
it either. Kim said she got to it somehow. Sonic P. Oh, it’s busy. It is busy, guys.Ā
Um Sonic PH Matteo Jorgensson. He can finish in top 10. Uh not overall. Not overall. IĀ
think he finished. He finished in the top 10 yesterday just for the stage. EveryoneĀ
loves Matteo Jorgensson for the top 10,Ā Ā especially from the Philippines. What is WhyĀ
does everyone from the Philippines just love Matteo Jorgensson? I have no idea why. UhĀ
two four. Did we lose a rider from UAE? Who am I thinking about here? Who did weĀ
lose from UAE? Cuz I only see Oh, Almeida. Yeah, we lost Almeator way earlier on because I’mĀ
not seeing the full team here. Back to the route, guys. We just got to keep waiting on it.Ā
I have to be able to get in here. Uh if I don’t have this up and running, whatĀ
I’m going to have to do is use my flowĀ Ā bikes over here. I’m sure it will get running.Ā
It’s currently saying that they I think we’ll have a live feed soon for the data coming in.Ā
I’m probably going to have to refresh. Tony, I think Pogy for Lavta will win four stagesĀ
and Matt Peterson for three sprints. Okay,Ā Ā let’s see if he’s going. I want to see theĀ
announcements that he’s going for sure, dude. Uh, yeah, good question. Don’t pop in.Ā
How many subscribers did you start the tour to France with? Definitely seems like you’ve gainedĀ
momentum stage by stage, dude. Thank you so much,Ā Ā dude. I think I was like at 29,000Ā
subscribers and it just like skyrocketed. it was slowly trickling and then those days whenĀ
there was like 8 900 1,00500 people here it just I think everyone hit subscribe so thank you soĀ
much everyone uh prudolm here getting ready toĀ Ā drop the flag it’s going to be a very neutralizedĀ
start today I think the whole pelaton is nowhere near Poggy right now they’re letting him do hisĀ
thing up front and then the racing is going to beĀ Ā on my coffee warmer’s been off guys warmer’sĀ
been off so yeah Pog uh don’t pop leaving thanks for uh noticing ing that Sonic PH in theĀ
general. No, he is down one. Yeah, Joe saying here he’s down an hour overall. He could get aĀ
top 10 stage finish, but no way to get overall. Jay Taylor, will Tatty try to win today?Ā
Tatty won’t try to win today’s stage. It’s tooĀ Ā dangerous. Uh, but how do you avoid the danger?Ā
I guess it depends. I mean, if what if Yonas and Vizma went on in the attack? They could totallyĀ
turn things upside down by going on the attack.Ā Ā Uh, and that would cause a lot of pressure and aĀ
lot of excitement. Okay, guys. I’m still waiting on the route to come through here. You know whatĀ
I’m going to do? I’m going to jump over into B terror world and see what’s going on here. So,Ā
right now, guys, I have more data coming from Berra. I’m going to do this for now. Just goingĀ
to do this for now, guys, just so you can see. Uh, this is the data that’s coming from Tour to FranceĀ
to Bite Terra. So, we’re going to hang out here for a while so I can basically go off camera andĀ
figure out what’s going on with the tour to France site. So, this is just going to show you I’m goingĀ
to jump back in here again. This is just showing you the Pelaton moving along. Obviously, it’sĀ
not going to show you the whole Pelaton. They’reĀ Ā crossing a bridged area here, guys. Look at theĀ
drawing now. So, now that I’m a full subscriber to uh Bike Terra, you get to have more moreĀ
drawing distance. And in fact, right here, I’ve only got the view distance at high. We canĀ
go even higher than that. Let’s do this on the flyĀ Ā and see what happens. Popped popped right in. LookĀ
at the hills that are showing at the background now. I love it. So good. We’re on an islandĀ
right now. And you can see all the waterways are popping in. Take a look at the map in theĀ
bottom right hand corner. This is Bike Terra. Uh, you know what? I’m going to I’ll speak. Oh, justĀ
had something happen there, guys. I’m just going to jump out. I’ll spectate again. I think I mightĀ
turn my drawing down a bit. I saw that earlier as well. I’m going to put it on I’m actually goingĀ
to put I’m just going to put on medium for now just so it runs stable. I did just find out thisĀ
morning too for Matt. He said maybe try out there is an actual app version of this too. There’s anĀ
app built for Windows which I think will provideĀ Ā more stability and I’m just talking out my buttĀ
because I don’t really know for sure. Uh okay catching up guys. Tony if Almeida was availableĀ
to Pogy would have won seven stages. Yeah would have been a lot stronger performance. Let’s goĀ
Tatty Pogatcher. This is uh the Sherwin Secret. Don’t pop even. Keep it up in. Yeah, dude. It’sĀ
just flying. And that’s not me. That’s you guys,Ā Ā you know. Okay, look at this here. Going a lotĀ
slower here. They’re going through a roundabout that looks like it’s climbing uphill. Just on theĀ
edges of the roundabout, actually. Trying to get uh this figured out here. Now, guys, just soĀ
you know, Matt did warn me today. He said we may have some problems here with the laps andĀ
all that stuff. Let me get back to my website now and see if I can figure out what’s going on here.Ā
Guys, I’m actually going to shut these tabs down. I’m going to log back in to how I normally do itĀ
and you guys should still be on the other thing. Again, it’s just being very neutralized rightĀ
now. There’s nothing crazy going on. There’s no breakaways yet. I do have the stream. Yeah, a lotĀ
of guys in not in rain jackets, but long sleeve jerseys today. It must be cooler out. So, let meĀ
get here. Okay, stage is on. Finally. Finally, guys. Here we go. So, it probably just tookĀ
a full reset for me there and we’re going to come back here now. Let’s just hang outĀ
here for now. Boom. There we go, folks. So, very neutralized start. Look at the average speedĀ
right now. 25.4 km an hour. Now, there’s beenĀ Ā several days where I’ve said, “Get on your bike.Ā
Go out there.” Yeah, you could do 25.4 km an hour for an hour. It’s 21°, virtually no winds here.Ā
129k. So, Florian Leapowitz is at the front. Uh, decked out in white gear. Third place overall atĀ
the Tour to France. He’s got uh looks like he’s got a jacket. I think he’s got a jacket on. LooksĀ
pretty puffy on him. I’m sure that’ll be coming off soon. See what Race Radio’s got to say here.Ā
23 teams balance the sheets. 14 teams and the flag is drawn for the last stage of the tour friends.Ā
So yeah, they had the entire UA UAE team minus Yao Almeida here because he fell out in I think heĀ
was out what stage actually I can’t even remember now. Yasper went out stage three. I think JiaoĀ
went out like in stage five or six maybe. Yeah, he crashed on the mirror de Britannia survivedĀ
the entire next day and it was the day afterĀ Ā that got him. So we can take a look at the liveĀ
tracking here. Category 4 coming up. We started, we rode along the river, crossed that island.Ā
You can see that’s where we are. The broom wagonsĀ Ā right behind them here. Uh we’re going to be goingĀ
all through Paris here. Coming back in, we will take four or five passages down the shams. AndĀ
actually, a passage would be uh around the circle of the shams here in the center of Paris and theseĀ
gardens here. Uh I should know what these are. And I think we go through the museum here, too.Ā
So, we we’re going to be going around like that.Ā Ā Actually, maybe that’s the cut off point there.Ā
When they do the lap, they’re just doing that. Then they’re taking off up here, which is goingĀ
to just blow this final stage apart. Uh I think there’s teams sitting there going, “Yeah, enoughĀ
of tradition. Enough of this boringness at theĀ Ā end. We’re attacking.” Uh so it depends who getsĀ
into the mix here as to what’s going to happen, how Tatty and UAE react to that. You know what?Ā
I like this. I like this excitement at the end. I don’t want to see crashes, but I like them rampingĀ
it up, giving it one last chance at the end. Uh Don saying thinks there’s over 2.2. Yeah,Ā
there’s been at least a couple more thousand subs. And if you guys get into the uh Turf France fam,Ā
well, that’d be great. Don, awesome having youĀ Ā here. Don saying, “I’m working in my office today.Ā
I have a DVR for stage 21. I listen to you.” Well, dude, don’t uh don’t ruin the finish for yourself.Ā
You got to watch that later. Uh bike terror, great shots. Yeah, bike terror has been so useful.Ā
What’s funny about it too is that bike that’s not what Bike Terra was designed for, but they haveĀ
the ability to do it. Bike Terra is designed to be a virtual cycling app. Um, I will be hanging outĀ
in the background here. And again, I was warned. Hey, there may be some problems with today, so I’mĀ
not sure what that’s involves. Again, this entitle uh Okay. Yeah, just jumping down here, guys.Ā
Let me catch up. Uh, bike terror. Great shots. I have bike terror running. Do I have it actuallyĀ
running right now? I don’t guys. I’m just goingĀ Ā to show you bite terra again quickly. Here’s bikeĀ
terra. So, bike terror should be running in your background right now. Going through the buildingsĀ
here. Again, take a look at the map. See whatĀ Ā you see on screen here. I did tweak the graphicsĀ
down a little bit. You can see how much draft the riders are getting at the back of the Pelaton. ItĀ
looks like we’ve got the Aussie crew at the back. Yeah, it looks like all of the AustraliansĀ
for every different team. Tutor, Jacob, Alula, Dathlawan, uh, looks like there’s five or sixĀ
of them back here. Seven maybe. I think they’re doing a group photo for all the AustraliansĀ
back there. What about the New Zealanders? Do they get to join in? I think we’ve got oneĀ
or two New Zealand riders here, I believe. Um, John Man worked as aĀ
20some just off Arctic Trump. Okay. Yeah, that mom art was it’s going toĀ
be brutal. Annel and Paul and Salon. TotallyĀ Ā agree. Uh, stupid route, dangerous route.Ā
Know all the reasons why they’re shaking up, but is worth exactly. Uh, they want to It’sĀ
probably got something to do with viewership, guys. That’s what I guess. Uh, they canĀ
probably tell. Well, of course they can tell. uh viewers watching at any given time. PeopleĀ
are only tuning in for the last five minutes to see the final sprint. It’s advertising.Ā
It’s this and that. But it is dangerous for the riders. It is dangerous for anyone upĀ
front. I guarantee you every single riderĀ Ā that’s in the GC battle in the front is nervous.Ā
Hey guys, what do you think about this? Yesterday, we saw uh Jordan Jagat go on a breakaway andĀ
take 10th place back from Ben Oconor. And I saw at one point, I believe it was Ben Oconor,Ā
the the Pelaton looking over at him and he was just shaking his head. Yeah, I think that’s theĀ
Aussie picture right now at the back. Actually,Ā Ā they’re at the front. They’veĀ
let them go to the front. No, sorry, it’s not. Uh I see Jonathan MilanĀ
there. Maybe this is the Italians picture. possibly. So, it showed a Jacob Ryder and he wasĀ
just shaking his head like this and I’m like, why wouldn’t you want to defend your 10thĀ
place? Any thoughts on that? 365 watching, guys. Let’s go. I love it. I love it. Okay, itĀ
just went live. Yeah, I got it live. Thanks, Joe. Uh, dude here’s asking for myĀ
Strava ID. Dude, on Strava, dude. I don’t know if it’s just call on Emerson. LetĀ
me look, dude. And I got to get on there todayĀ Ā because I I’ve been off the bike three days withĀ
the streaming. Um, what do I call myself on Straa? Of course, it won’t pull up right now. It’sĀ
probably just Colin Emerson. It might be CĀ Ā Emerson, but uh, yeah, it’s just Colin Emerson.Ā
So, my name spelled out C O L I N space E M E R S O N. And it’s just my face there. You’ll seeĀ
a guy smiling. Actually, not smiling. Okay. Uh, is it is that real guys? Bingham Germaya is notĀ
participating in today’s race. I don’t thinkĀ Ā that’s true. Guys, let me just jump back here.Ā
We will look at this here. We’re going to look at the rankings to see withdrawals. I highly doubtĀ
Bingum would pull out. We had Fedorov, Evani, Evani, Federov pull off uh pull out yesterday.Ā
He didn’t even start. Uh there’s no reports that Bingham’s not there. I think Bingham might beĀ
one of the sprinters that can hang on betterĀ Ā at the end of today’s stage. I think it’s goingĀ
to be pretty mellow here for the first part. So, if you’re in another part of the world if it’sĀ
after Well, you can do whatever you want, but uh it’s 5:00 somewhere in the world, crack yourĀ
beer, crack your cider. Uh, the Trek team’s coming up now. Here’s Quinn Simmons. Oh, this his hairĀ
is luxurious today. Looks like he’s really combed it out. It’s not all matted to his the back of hisĀ
neck. His hair is looking good. I think he went toĀ Ā the uh barber last night and had a full blowoutĀ
done. Dre Riders, just looking back, guys. Be careful. These pictures always make me nervous.Ā
They’ve got seven riders remaining in the team. Uh, Bennett Mills here. NBC feed on Peacock stillĀ
hasn’t started. Oh, really? Didn’t know that. Um, guys, do I have it on the right streamĀ
right now? I don’t. Sorry about that. Uh, we need to be here. Apologies. There we go.Ā
So, this is what’s actually happening out there right now. They’re doing the pictures. ThisĀ
looks like Luke Plap talking to Pogy right now. arms around each other. Luke Plop just he’s anĀ
awesome time trialist for uh JCO Alula. It’s gonna be hard for me saying these names now because whenĀ
you watch the women’s tour there’s Tom Scoin’s uhĀ Ā Leo Trek. When you watch the women’s tour fe uhĀ
the names are slightly different. So here it’s JCO Alula. Over on tour to France fems it’s liveĀ
Alula JCO. They were hot today, folks. Check that. You can check the video out later if you want. IfĀ
you just Yeah, whatever you want to do. Uh guys, uh like the channel if you can. Inside Cycling,Ā
we’re calling this is going to keep poweringĀ Ā forward. Powering forward. Uh John Manion,Ā
how long is until I start as there is way too much laughing and joking going on at the minute.Ā
Yeah, dude. Uh I think it was about 8 kilometersĀ Ā and they rode it like took them like half an hourĀ
to ride it. I think all the teams are just doing their processional. Let’s ride to the front andĀ
take pictures. We survived. There’s four riders off the front right now. All in the same jerseys.Ā
I don’t think it’s an attack. Pogy’s going back through talking to the team car. Hope hopefullyĀ
he likes to tour again. It just seems like the last few days he’s just absolutely hated it. Ah,Ā
Aussie. I heard Aussie. Exactly, dude. I know. Yeah, it’s 20k an hour. We could all ride withĀ
these guys right now very easily. I’m Wait,Ā Ā I want to see some rider who’s likeĀ
in 168th place just go on a flyer off the side and like full guns. Let’s do it.Ā
That’s what I want to see right now. Uh, okay. Weird. Drew saying I had to reboot myĀ
phone because YouTube gave me a silent call.Ā Ā That’s weird, dude. I guess same as me. A the feedĀ
was down. I could not get it going. Some people were watching. I had to just reboot everything.Ā
Jump out. Okay, so that’s what it was. I saw fourĀ Ā riders, same jerseys, white and blue. I thoughtĀ
it was uh Red Bull. They’re all at the front doing their picture now. They’re actually waiting forĀ
the seventh rider to catch up. They lost uh DannyĀ Ā Van Pppppel earlier. No crashes, no injuries,Ā
all celebrations. His um partner, I think, I’m not sure if it was his wife or his partner,Ā
had a baby, so he went home for that. Red Bull, I think they’ve had a pretty awesome tour toĀ
France. Third place overall and Primos is in eighth. Yeah, some of these pictures are sketchy.Ā
Could you imagine falling down here and breaking your collarbone? You’d have to just try to rideĀ
all the way. Some guys don’t look comfortable riding with no hands on the handlebars. I know I’mĀ
not. Uh, and Allan, you’re right, Colin. increase TV viewership and opportunity for Paris to showĀ
off their shiny bike friendly city. Yeah. So, it’s going to be sketch, guys. Uh teams are goingĀ
to have to be on high alert going up that climb. It’s what they use at the Olympics. I’ve heardĀ
it’s very narrow and it’s cobbled. It does a full loop around that huge church that’s up top there.Ā
Uh there will be attacks going off. There’s 14 teams that haven’t won anything yet. So they gotĀ
sponsors. They got DS is screaming at them. Lots of race. Jordy Muse last to win on the ShamzilĀ
Z. Swoosh kid. Thank you for that. Eric Gart,Ā Ā lots of racing today. Fam tour to friends. Yeah, IĀ
heard there’s F1 F1 going on. So yeah, there’ll be people watching that too. They’re not die hards.Ā
Uh, a lot of people want to go fast. Back in the day, this is from Dawn. Deutsch Telecom was theĀ
male pro team and the fem version of the team was T-Mobile. Okay. I didn’t know that. Then I thinkĀ
eventually the male team become became T-Mobile as well. I think Drew, my meteorological yearĀ
ends September 30th. My emotional year ends when the men’s I know, right? Yeah, I know. You lookĀ
so forward to it and then it’s done. But guys, I’m going to continue to bring race coverage. UhĀ
I thoroughly enjoy doing this. Uh yeah, I probably whined a little bit about getting up early, butĀ
it’s just growing pains trying to get used to it. I have to figure out when to do my bike rides. UhĀ
I I love it. I absolutely love it. I love the fact that people enjoy this. Uh we got 400 people hereĀ
right now. Still super neutralized, you guys. I’ll try to show you where they’re at. We’re going toĀ
blip that off. I should probably always do this in the background because I do this every time.Ā
That was going to do some pop in. But you can see here perfectly how it shows you on bike terraĀ
what we’re seeing. Look at the map in the bottom.Ā Ā We got a little switch back here. We got a switchĀ
back going up into Paris. We are actually climbing here. Not everything’s going to be shown, guys. UhĀ
it’s not a onetoone representation, but on the map you can see there’s some structures here. You’reĀ
seeing that exactly on the side of the road here. and you can as a member. Uh guys, if you’reĀ
getting into indoor cycling, this is probably the app you want to go after. Uh it’s your best entryĀ
point. Tons of routes. Like I said this morning, uh I’m telling myself, as soon as you’re doneĀ
here, you get on your bike and you do something.Ā Ā I found a route in my mom’s hometown in Victoria,Ā
British Columbia. Uh it just popped up. In fact, I found 70 pages of routes. I don’t know if there’sĀ
more than that. Uh 10 routes per page. a lot of Turn to France routes. So again, this is allĀ
looking good to me here. There should be fieldsĀ Ā out here. That’s what we’re seeing on the map. I’mĀ
not sure if we’re in a park area here. Yeah, we’re just on the outskirts. We are on the outskirtsĀ
here. So, there should be very little over in thisĀ Ā section. We should be seeing more buildings onĀ
the right, which we are according to this map. And there is a large rectangular building here, whichĀ
you can see on the map here. The hand icon is directly over top it. If if you guys can see thatĀ
they are climbing here 5% grade now. So every team is going to Let’s go to the front and take ourĀ
year-end picture together. So let them do that. So yeah, there’s actually a lot more riders you guys.Ā
We’re only displaying 12 here in the Pelaton. TheĀ Ā entire Pelaton’s here. So however many riders thatĀ
is. So yeah, this is perfect. loving this. So, there should be open fields here on the leftĀ
hand side of the riders, which there is. And there should be buildings on the right hand side.Ā
We’re seeing a smattering of buildings here. WeĀ Ā should be seeing some more right off the road. I’mĀ
zooming in right here, guys. These buildings right here. One, two, three, four buildings. And there’sĀ
a couple in the background. Guess what? One, two, three, four buildings. It’s exactly whatĀ
we’re seeing. You’re not going to see windows. You’re not going to be able to peek in at me.Ā
None of that stuff, guys. Uh there should be oneĀ Ā building on the right hand side right now. There’sĀ
one building on the right hand side right now. And I think you know stuff that’s way off theĀ
edge. Other roads and stuff probably doesn’t getĀ Ā rendered in. Uh and again to remember everythingĀ
you’re seeing here for tour to France coverage uh through bike terra, it’s still all consideredĀ
beta. They’re working on it in the background.Ā Ā Actually, look at this. You got an 8% climb hereĀ
on the last day up these little lumps. So that spiked here, guys. Let me jump back here. I knowĀ
you guys love it. Absolutely know that. Take a look at the map. Here’s our category 4 climb.Ā
That’s probably what we’re on right now. So, this is the category four climb here. Uh 1.7 km,Ā
7%. We might have been on a bump right before it, which I think we were. We actually haven’t.Ā
We’re just on a little climb before we go overĀ Ā to the category 4. Uh there shouldn’t be any fightĀ
over this. Let’s take a look. Pogy is 117 points. Yonas is 104. What did we have for sporting stakesĀ
today? Sporting stakes today. Oo, bright. Sorry, guys. Bright, bright, bright. We can take a lookĀ
here. Yeah, everything’s working the way it should have before. Uh one, two, three. There’s onlyĀ
five points available. So there’s no point in even because I thought could Yonas go after theĀ
uh the jersey. He’s wearing the jersey. Anyways, actually we are seeing here now. Take a look guys.Ā
I’ll go back to the kind of the chat from tourĀ Ā radio. Nine Aussies finished the tour to France.Ā
This is them all getting their picture taken here. Lot the bull ran out of steam. Oh, that’s right.Ā
Arnold DeLe had a tough stage that one day with four places in the top five.Ā
Oh, I love his nickname. Uh Arnold Dele’s nickname is the bull of Leerette.Ā
I love that. I got to remember that. Yeah, riders have to go back and help him. He wasĀ
like four or five minutes behind yesterday. So hopefully he’s feeling good. HeĀ
probably just ran out of energy. We’ll hang out here for a little bit. I’ll catchĀ
up with the chat. I’ll sip some coffee again. Now it’s Arca B&B hotels at the front. There’s got toĀ
be at least one rider go down. Okay. Uh let’s jump back, guys. 431 here. I know it’s going to grow.Ā
Let me just bounce back a little bit, guys. I see I’m missing some stuff. Uh yeah, Drew’s emotionalĀ
year. It’s okay, Drew. You can shed a tear today. One tier is allowed. I’ll give that to you.Ā
Chris Clansancy here in Japan going on Minute. And I got a Guinness as I pull for Ben Healey.Ā
Awesome, dude. Awesome stuff. Great to have you, Chris. I think you’ve been here quite a fewĀ
days. Uh Drew Schaefer, glad you were doing the Swift Fems Tour that softens the postpartumĀ
sensation. Dude, it’s awesome racing. Uh, I’m really enjoying it. I was going to just startĀ
tomorrow and do like a recap show, but I thought,Ā Ā “No, let’s go.” It just made some, again, whining.Ā
Colin’s whining. Uh, especially yesterday. It was a long day. 4:00 a.m. start. I think I stream fromĀ
4 till 11:00 a.m. in the morning with maybe a half hour break in there. That’s a lot of talking. Uh,Ā
but yeah, I’m looking forward to it. I’m going to do that. Uh, next Saturday. I think it’s theĀ
San Sebastian Classic. I might try to do that. The tour of Poland starts the following week.Ā
There’s a tour of Denmark. There’s the ArcticĀ Ā Trail race. August 23rd, we see the start of theĀ
Valta. The Voalta is kind of like it’s the third third biggest. I love it. I always find the ValtaĀ
has probably the hardest climbs. They take them up some insane routes. They’re constantly building.Ā
Like, take a look at the They’re climbing the Anglaroo this year. So the angleroo was basicallyĀ
like a a path and they were like can we pave it? Sure can. Let’s send them up there. Uh brutalĀ
climb. Maybe later I’ll talk about that. Maybe maybe during the tour of France uh fems I’ll beĀ
taking a look at that. I’ll I’ll squeeze thatĀ Ā in there. And I did want to get back to whoeverĀ
wanted to see my dog sled day pictures and videos. We got Phil Thomas here again. Colin, thank youĀ
for your show and covering the tour stages. PhilĀ Ā from Florida. Hey, Phil. Thank you for being here,Ā
dude. Thank you. We got 400 people watching now. Hit the like button if you can, guys. It’s reallyĀ
easy. Just hit that thumb and then other peopleĀ Ā see the video later today. Uh same with the fam.Ā
If you guys can jump in there and watch that and like that, too. That’s even better. Uh WillieĀ
here. Willy’s been around a lot. Healey had aĀ Ā great tour to France. Uh ninth overall the tour toĀ
France. I’d say that’s an awesome tour to France. Any of these guys top 10 at the tour of to France.Ā
You can always say that, dude. Because you know,Ā Ā there’s always a question. Well, dude, doĀ
you ever tur of to France? Yeah. Top 10. Uh, hey Chris Clansancy. There areĀ
like 20 Chris Clancy’s on Straa. Yeah, I know. I go look for people. I’m like,Ā
“Oh my, there’s so many of them.” Uh,Ā Ā on Strava. Yeah, on Strava. I’mĀ
just calling Emerson. On Zift, I think I’m C period inside Cycling World. So,Ā
if you ride Zift, you can find me there, too. Uh Jeff saying, “Why am I watching a videoĀ
game? Show us the race, please.” Jeff,Ā Ā I can’t show you the race. Uh my channel wouldĀ
be taken down. Uh it’s all copyright and the ASO who owns the Tour to France is lethal uh onĀ
people. You’re not watching a video game. In fact, I will show you the video game again.Ā
Actually, I got to fire it up for youĀ Ā here. Definitely not a video game. This is aĀ
3D representation of where the cyclists are. uh out on the road. Wonder if that’s someoneĀ
out. I’m actually seeing a lump off the front there right now. So, it’s saying there’s a leadingĀ
group. They’re just chilling though. These guys are just chilling off the front here. Arca Rider,Ā
Total Energies Rider, and Bentomas. Bentomas here and Matteo Virture. They were the two thatĀ
started the initial breakaway on stage one. So, we got three riders riding off the front hereĀ
right now. Uh, so yeah, back to Jeff here. Dude,Ā Ā not a video game. Uh, not a video game. ThisĀ
is the actual 3D representation of where the riders are. Uh, you’ll see this change asĀ
we go on. I’ll pop back in here quickly. Uh, oh, maybe I didn’t show it to you. There.Ā
I thought I was showing it. Might have been.Ā Ā Who cares? We’re good. Yeah, there are a fewĀ
riders going off the front right now. So Jeff’s asking why am I watching now dude it’s just aĀ
3D representation of it. Uh Drew here maybe myĀ Ā 1994 97 New Hampshire route is in Strava ConcordĀ
west to Hopkin north to Okay dude. So like Drew if you were to go into Straa and download thatĀ
GPX files. Wow. These three dudes are sprinting up the hill here for the K point. So that’sĀ
who the three riders off the front were. SoĀ Ā that’s the real race. Jeff. Um Jeff, you’re inĀ
the wrong mindset. Jeff, no, not on the right, but definitely on the wrong channel. I’mĀ
looking for an actual race. I’ll guess. Yeah,Ā Ā dude. You’re welcome to go wherever you want.Ā
Uh you can hang out here and talk cycling or you can go go and watch get a disconnect from OBS,Ā
guys. It’ll come back here right away. Hopefully,Ā Ā I got some good buffering going. Uh Drew isĀ
saying here, “Isn’t Angleroo like 21%?” Yeah, dude. Uh, Angleroo I think is 21 to 23% at times.Ā
Like absolute insanity. And that’s what we’re taking on at Lavalta. What I’m going to do hereĀ
at the same time is try to do this if I can figure this out quickly. Climbinder. Going to open upĀ
Climbinder here and we’ll have some Angleroo talk. Uh, Anglaroo should give it to me now.Ā
Unless it goes by a different name. Oh, there it is. Just absolutely brutal. AbsolutelyĀ
brutal. Okay, so that’s going to have to load in as I do that. I’ll come back here, guys, andĀ
hang out with you here. I’m I’m pulling up the Angler right now. Uh Joe, this is Chris talkingĀ
to uh to Joe. I’m wearing a Cincinnati Reds hat. Dude, running wild. Dude, right here, dude. WhoĀ
are you? Running wild, I have to know your name. Running wild says, “Sled dog days. Were youĀ
a friend of Rob Cars’?” 100% Rob Carse is the dude that got me into sled dogs. I was watching uhĀ
the Ida Rod all through university. I don’t know why I started watching it. I I honestly don’t knowĀ
why. I’ve always liked endurance events. So, early days of internet, there’s a website called SledĀ
Dog Central. When I see your name running wild, I got to think that you probably run dogs, too. Uh,Ā
Sled Dog Central still exists like in its exact same form as it did like in 1995. It’s insane.Ā
30 years later, they have the same website. It’s so I go back and it’s so nostalgic. I don’t runĀ
dogs anymore. I met Rob in 97. I I graduated from university as geologist. Times are great. WorkingĀ
downtown. My geotechnician when they still had geotech, this lady, I forget her name. I thinkĀ
it was maybe it was Diane said, “Hey, I know aĀ Ā guy runs dogs. You should talk to him. I workedĀ
at Apache. He worked at Anderson.” Yeah, guys, they’re still doing all the ceremonial stuff here.Ā
So, it’s story time from Colin. I called Rob up several times. I found out he completed the 1996 IĀ
did. Uh I think he called me. So, this would have been late 97, maybe November. He’s like, “Okay,Ā
come on out. If the dogs like you, you can stickĀ Ā around.” Uh, I went to Ida Rod with him in ’98.Ā
So, obviously the dogs like me. I worked like a beast for him. Uh, just things like, he goes, “I’mĀ
He” He goes, “You know all the dogs names already. That’s important.” So, when someone says, “Hey,Ā
go fix so and so. Go fix Penrod. Uh, go fix Jack.” You got to know the dog’s name. So, so RunningĀ
Wild, whoever you are, you obviously know Rob,Ā Ā I went to I did Rod with Rob in ’98. I trainedĀ
with him 99 2000. I know he sc he scratched in ’98. That’s just a withdrawal, guys. Uh he wentĀ
back in 2000, scratched again. And then I started doing my own stuff. Rob ended up I know he spentĀ
time out in Colona. I think a was it called Big White? No, something star near Colona. There’sĀ
a big ski hill. I think he lives out there now. Uh, so running wild, let me know who you are.Ā
Uh, Cindy, fabulous Paris. Uh, fabulous Paris, here they come from BA, Canada. PA,Ā
Canada, just down the road. Cindy,Ā Ā I’m about an hour and a half from B. DrewĀ
saying, I don’t have Strava yet. Oh, Drew, get on Strava. Okay, so they’re still justĀ
doing the dillydally at the front. It looksĀ Ā like things might be getting ready to startĀ
now, guys. They’ve got 120K of racing. Actually, no. It looks like Total Energies is coming up nowĀ
for the photo opportunity. Let’s get through that. Uh yeah, Dawn here. Uh if you get a copyrightĀ
strike, they suspend your channel. They orĀ Ā they block the video altogether. Yeah, IĀ
definitely wouldn’t want my Tur France fem stuff turned off either. Yeah, Jay, I saw itĀ
stutter earlier. I think OBS is reconnecting. Uh, I used to detest secondhand broadcasts.Ā
Grew into them though as their only pay-per-view broadcast here in Japan. Yeah, guys, like I’mĀ
just doing my own thing here. Uh, I’m solo. I’mĀ Ā independent. I don’t pretend to be a broadcaster.Ā
I just know I watch a lot of bike racing, and there’s things I see that the pro commentatorsĀ
that you all pay to watch don’t see. So, that’s why I’m going to do it my way. Uh, roads do lookĀ
slightly damp here, guys. So, I’ll get the bike terra rocking again once we got some action on theĀ
front. totel rider joking around here pretending he’s going on a breakaway it looks like uh EvardĀ
I rode an 18% climb onto the Niagara escarment new mountain road Hamilton 2 km r so uh EvardĀ
that kind of stuff you get the GPX file so if you’re not into Strava and you wanted to ride thatĀ
climb again this is how you do it I would go into uh Google whatever you want to use and I wouldĀ
type in New Mountain Road Strava segment or I would type in the Niagara Escarment New MountainĀ
Road segment. It would take me into Strava. It would show me the best times and there’ll be a GPXĀ
file you can download there. You take that, youĀ Ā slam it into Bike Terra. You can ride it wheneverĀ
you want. You can ride it when it’s uh 40° Celsius out and you don’t want to kill yourself. You canĀ
also ride it when it’s minus 40° C out and youĀ Ā don’t want to kill yourself. Uh, you could get GPXĀ
files for routes that you’re going to do an event at that you want to kind of like recon the route.Ā
Uh, running wild Montana musher Greg S. Dude, what is your last name? Greg S here. I knowĀ
there’s been some famous mushers come out of Montana and dude, I used to know dog mushing likeĀ
I know cycling. I still have a lot of dog mushing uh history going on. I’m thinking about doing someĀ
dog mushing videos on the channel here where IĀ Ā go out. Uh Greg, if you were to meet me, you’d beĀ
like, “Dude, grab those dogs. Let’s harness them, dude.” Like in my sleep. So, I ran dogs from 97Ā
to 2018 with Rob. Sorry, not with Rob. Started with Rob. I continued on distance. I switchedĀ
to sprint. I continued on to 2018. And one day I decided, “Yeah, I’m just done.” So, I endedĀ
up giving all my dogs away. Uh, Greg, let me know your last name if you would like to share itĀ
here. Right now, guys, they still have 116 km to go. The race really hasn’t even started yet hereĀ
today. Let’s just look at the live tracking again. Greg, love to know your last name. Uncle Matty’sĀ
back. Good day, fine sir. Who are you picking to win today? I have vouts a good pick. Uh he reallyĀ
hasn’t done a lot this tour to France. This stage suits him. Kind of what I always call the longĀ
range attack sprinter. Uh totally suits out. Those cobbles, narrow roads, you probably wantĀ
to be a bike handling master. Uh after Matt, well, I would put Vout on par with Matchu. MatthewĀ
Vanderpool’s out. Cyclacross champions. That’s who I would be uh rooting for today. Ah, yes.Ā
here. Las rotitos silver star ski hill in Vernon BC. Yes. So I know Rob had a placeĀ
there for a while. Had his place here. I think he’s retired there. I am friends with RobĀ
on uh Strava. I see his rides. He sees mine. Uh Scotty saying, “I hope Vout wins this one.”Ā
Upgrade your mind. Morning calling gang. Hey dude, this is Andrew here. Uh upgrade your mind. UncleĀ
Matty Vernon and BA are great places to enjoy skiing. I jumped a groomer at Sunshine Village inĀ
’94. Love it, dude. Love it. The stage is pretty uh symbolic, dude. It’s all changed today. It’sĀ
all changed. They don’t want this to be a symbolic ceremonial. I think this first part, they’reĀ
just getting it out of the way now. Uh guys, maybe I should show you that again. Let’s take aĀ
look at the video again. And there’s one specific video I want to show you. Uh for anyone thatĀ
joined in late here, this is so different from theĀ Ā previous years just uh let me get here and uh takeĀ
this in. You’re going to see them do like four or five passages up the shams the standard and thenĀ
after about the think the fifth passage they take off and go a totally different direction. SoĀ
here’s the Eiffel Tower coming up. They do that. They go past all the fancy gardens down the saneĀ
river here. Um, Hassan, hey guys, any idea what time they will reach Mont Marta, trying to get aĀ
spot to view them. Oh jeez, dude. Hassan is in theĀ Ā mix. There’s all the fancy gardens you’re going toĀ
see them do multiple passages down the the Shamsil here. They go around the gardens over and over.Ā
They go through the museum and instead of justĀ Ā doing that nine times, they then take off and hitĀ
the Olympic road course. They take off right here, 2024 uh Paris Olympics. This is where they startĀ
three ascents up the but uh mart UAE’s on the front now. It’s on guys. Uh UAE is riding on theĀ
front at 51 km an hour. It’s race time. Tatty’s in third position. Here is the climb up the uhĀ
Mart itself. Dude, uh Hassan, what you should do, grab your phone, open up the official Tour toĀ
France site. I’ll try to do it for you here ifĀ Ā I remember. They have a schedule in there whenĀ
they will arrive. So Hassan’s trying to get to the climb. Uh Rodri, I like the live trackingĀ
view. Nice. I think Robert, I’m not sure if you’re talking about uh bike terror there. Bingham isĀ
in the race. I’ll find him here soon. Renzo’s ask Valentine Madas, can he win the race? I guess heĀ
has a chance to win today. Everyone’s got a chance today, guys. Uh I’d say Pogy has the least chanceĀ
because he’s got the most to lose. That’s all I’m going to say about that. Uh he’s not going to letĀ
him allow himself to get in any danger today. His team would not allow him uh to be up front thereĀ
battling for the lead on those cobbles. I can’t see it. That’s probably like guys just stay withinĀ
a minute of Yonas and we’ve won the tour. Let me get through this here. I’m actually looking forĀ
some answers from Greg S from Montana. Uh okay, Dawn, I may ride up Garrett Mountain by by myselfĀ
tomorrow. It’s three mile base of the mountainĀ Ā then up all paved. Should be fun, dude. LoveĀ
it. Don may go indoors on the smart trainer this winter. I have one. Don, yeah, if you need anyĀ
help, whatever. If you have one, you already know. Uh, but any questions, just send them my way,Ā
guys. Dawn’s indoor trainer is not set up yet.Ā Ā Okay. Decathlon. And confirmation from the radar.Ā
Confirmation that rain will hit before we reach Paris. The rain will start. Oh, those cobblesĀ
are going to be deadly. So, it will be wet inside of Paris. They’re out in the countryside now,Ā
guys. It’s full gas, full guns. Poggy’s in third place. The Pelaton is strung out probably over 400Ā
meters right now. What I can do? Uh, yeah, it it’s actually technical. They’re riding through theĀ
streets of Paris here soon. Uh, yeah. Dance mom 35 here. I just saw them. She’s in Paris. She’sĀ
in France. So, we got a dance mom here. Uh, just saw them go by. Awesome stuff. I love it. AlmostĀ
500 people watching, guys. Really appreciate that. Colin, do you know the name of the cyclingĀ
race that happens in Ontario near Dude,Ā Ā near Ontario? Dude, I don’t actually. I don’t. IĀ
did tell myself, guys, I did follow a uh a gravel race earlier this year, way back in May. There’s aĀ
couple of really There’s one little crazy video onĀ Ā my channel. It’s called the Hurtton Albertan 575Ā
kilometers. I’ve got a bunch more footage from it. I’ve never put together in a video. Uh my buddyĀ
Burch, who I went to university with, he checks the channel. He goes, “Dude, I love it.” He goes,Ā
“I love your gonzo reporting style from the field. I followed them like into the night, into the darkĀ
in a deadly storm, the kind of storm that’ll kick out small tornadoes, lightning everywhere, andĀ
these two warriors out there riding in And I was parked on the side of the road and they were like,Ā
they were so pumped to see me out there. There was no one else out there, just me and them. I wasĀ
like, it was really creepy being out there in theĀ Ā dark. I was in the middle of nowhere. Um, uh, VoutĀ
could easily win today’s stage two. Let’s let the, uh, I’ll catch up here. Arnold Deise here. HeĀ
will finish the tour. He had a really bad stage. IĀ Ā think it was yesterday, the day before. Sprinter.Ā
I’m going to get caught up in the chat and then I’m going to go off from there. Drew saying IĀ
ski Blue Mountain around 1968 or 69. Love it. Uh, does Bike Terra support the Zift ride?Ā
Dude, I’m not sure about that. I have uh so I’m riding a standard I’m riding aĀ
tax neo2T with a standard cyclross bike. I do have Zift Plays. I ride Ruby a lot andĀ
they don’t support the Zift plays becauseĀ Ā I want to do virtual shifting. I don’tĀ
want to have the separate clicker. Um, something to look into, I guess. Eric, whatĀ
time will they pass? I have to Oh, dude,Ā Ā I’m going to have to look that up. Uh, whatĀ
I can do here? Pull up the route again. So, for today’s stage, where are we here? We gotĀ
to come here. I wonder if it’s going to give us a there’s a time schedule here you can lookĀ
at here. Don’t worry about me. I’m just gettingĀ Ā blinded here. Uh so it’s going to give you allĀ
the road turns here. Someone asked about Marts. They don’t actually give it. Oh, right hereĀ
it says Eiffel Tower. Uh 1549 local time for the caravan. Okay. So then the next threeĀ
times you see here on the screen. Yeah.Ā Ā Look at the retinas getting burned out. BetweenĀ
1741, that’s 541 local, and 549. That’s like the fastest time to the slowest time, the race willĀ
pass by the Eiffel Tower. Dude, get on your bike full wheelie all the way over to the Eiffel Tower.Ā
Let’s get it. Uh, we hit Hassan earlier asked when will they be at the Kot de Lab Marm uh betweenĀ
6:31 and 6:44 local time. And I think that’s CST time. So for some I thought France was sevenĀ
hours ahead of me. It’s saying it’s eight if you use CST. I don’t know why they do that. Okay,Ā
I can see again. Going to have a coffee here. Someone important in the back of that car. IĀ
have no idea who it is. Maybe it’s hopefullyĀ Ā some Tur France rider from the past.Ā
Uh okay. So that’s all. What is the red circle on the course? That’s the sagĀ
wagon. That’s broom wagon chasing afterĀ Ā them. It’s kind of funny they even have it outĀ
today. I think it’s just part of the caravan, guys. They are hammering rightĀ
now. Let’s quickly jump into Oh, I messed that up, didn’t I? Let’s jump backĀ
here and I’m going to spectate this. I expect to see one massive pelon. I don’t think we’re goingĀ
to see any groups here. Yeah, one massive pelaton, guys. That’s all we’re seeing. We’re ridingĀ
like on the outskirts of uh Paris right now. All open fields on the video. Let’s see if I canĀ
figure this out here. I’ll probably just keep it running in the background maybe. Yeah. So, we’reĀ
technically not in Paris, but it’s all joined together. I will come back. Hey, just for thoseĀ
that are that want to be in the know, this is what’s coming up shortly. I know this is not tourĀ
to France related, but this is Lavalta related. So, let’s have a quick peek at this. We justĀ
mentioned the Anglaroo. Uh, check this beast out. Look at the rating on it, guys. Uh, now I justĀ
pulled up. Look at it here. It gets an SHC rating. What does that mean? A super horse category.Ā
Kind of like Colins’s HC Plus. Here’s the I think there is only one way up it and it dead endsĀ
up there. Uh guys, look at this profile here. Take a look at this puppy actually. Yeah. So there areĀ
segments. So they’re averaging this. Obviously it’s taking 500 meter segments here and averagingĀ
it. So over this segment here between 9.5 and 10 km it’s 15% average but there is chunks that hitĀ
20. Further down the road here, 17% average over one kilometer from 10 from the 10th kilometer toĀ
the 11th kilometer. Uh it averages 17%. Segments hitting 22 and 23%. That’s insane. Uh the ratingĀ
on it just for for perspective guys, the rating here is 1624 with a little lightning bolt. So howĀ
hard it is, I guess. The Alp Duez is under 1,000. Uh, I think the hardest we did at the tour toĀ
France might have been like an 1100. And while I’m here, I want to see if they call it like a superĀ
H. We’re going to look at all this here. Yeah, they do call it a super or category. HC Plus.Ā
That’s what I’m calling it. Oh, and right here, there are climbs above 1500. A notable exampleĀ
is the Anglaroo. Just happens to be the oneĀ Ā we’re looking at. So, this is an HC+ andĀ
I’m going to stick with that naming. Uh, jumping back to the tour here. They are racing uhĀ
bombing along 50 60k an hour. UAE on the front. I think I see a nature break going off there.Ā
Uh, Colin will be taking a nature break inĀ Ā a little while. Uh, I’ve drank every bit ofĀ
coffee in the house, so have to stay fueled. Okay, guys. I’m trying to catch up here. I’m notĀ
trying to ignore anyone. I just wanted to show youĀ Ā uh what the angler rule is. We’re doing that.Ā
That starts August 23rd. I need the crew here, guys. I need the dudes to jumpĀ
in. Uh I need the dudes to jumpĀ Ā into the tour to France fems. So,Ā
yeah, that was the broom wagon. Okay. Uh, uncle, we were visiting. Okay, so just learn aboutĀ
Oh, learn curling in Hamilton. Famous Canadian pastime of curling. You know what? You think aboutĀ
it. Oh, boring. It’s so much fun to watch curling when you kind of get into the angles they’reĀ
hitting. I love it. Sheep farmer. Is it sheep farmer Jeff? Okay. Sheep farmer Jeff. Did youĀ
ever meet Chris or Trent Herps? No, I didn’t. ButĀ Ā I know those names. I know Trent Herps. I believeĀ
they did around 2000 as well. They were buddies of mine from high school. The guy that I knew reallyĀ
well from tour sorry I did rod days. I know all the names. The Mackey’s the CVS uh the SwingleyĀ
that good dude Doug Swingley Jeff King Martin Boozer the ladies uh DD Jean Row Susan ButcherĀ
back in the day so many great uh female mushers as well. I went up to Alaska probably two or threeĀ
times. There’s a dude named John Little. I got some phenomenal dogs from him that same year. HeĀ
got fourth place overall at the at the Ididarod. I keep wanting to say the tour of France, guys.Ā
Uh and he had a tiny kennel. He was based in Can Casiloff, Alaska on the Kenai Peninsula. I haven’tĀ
seen him since I think he got fourth place I’m going to say in like 2003 or something, probablyĀ
around there. And he also did the Yukon Quest. I think he got third or fourth place there asĀ
well. Yukon Quest, that’s the predominantly Canadian side. Uh it runs from Yellow KnifeĀ
to Ank sorry to Fairbanks and then they flip it on the other year. It’s totally been changedĀ
now. I think they’ve shortened the race down. Okay, so sheep farmer Jeff, I’m glad you’reĀ
here. It looks like uh endurance people likeĀ Ā all endurance stuff. These are the kind ofĀ
things I like. If there was like an endurance race running through the desert, I’d be watchingĀ
it. So, I think that’s why some of you guys areĀ Ā here. Anyone hopes to overtake Pog, he’s gonnaĀ
have to do a breakaway soon. Yeah, they’re not going to take him out. Curling is a true CanadianĀ
sport. Love it. Yeah, guys, where I live out here, there’s a little town down the road called Midway.Ā
Not even a town. Uh there’s an old school thereĀ Ā that got shut down years ago. Probably had likeĀ
four classrooms. The gym’s still there. A welder owns it now. We have a curling rink there. I’veĀ
never been in it, but there is a curling rink. Joey Jojo is in the mix, folks. JoeyĀ
Jojo is in the mix. Uh again, guys, so Joey Jojo’s up and let’s thank Joey JojoĀ
for getting me to do this cuz she said,Ā Ā “Hey, why don’t you try this style?” And itĀ
works, guys. Thank you so much. Uncle Matty saying hi to Joey. Too bad I missed that JeffĀ
character. I could have told him off. Yeah,Ā Ā I know. I kind of did a little bit. I’mĀ
just trying to ignore people that say anything negative in here. Uh I told Joey thisĀ
like we went out for supper last weekend. Oh, that was another brutal day. Up at 4:00 a.m.Ā
to stream, stay up all day. Had to go out forĀ Ā dinner late that night. Yeah, that was a crazyĀ
night, too. That was for Joey’s birthday. Uh, okay. Someone here is asking, “Drew Carl, haveĀ
you seen the anime film?” I haven’t seen this. Lat tripolis de Belleville all cyclingĀ
fantasy. Okay, dude. I’ll look it up. IĀ Ā don’t know what it’s about. Uncle Maddie. Yeah,Ā
Kaden Grows Race was awesome yesterday. No guts, no glory. I recommend the book 23 days inĀ
July. I’m interested in some of the books you’ve mentioned. I think that’s one I haven’tĀ
read yet. Or maybe I have. Is that the one about uh is that the one about Greg Lamont? Greg LamontĀ
and the win. Joey put that on the book list that I need. When I retire, my dream is to drive theĀ
broom wagon for 21 stages of tour. I would love to do anything over at the tour to France. I wouldĀ
be on the cleanup crew cleaning up all their gel rappers. Uh last day of the tour to France 2025Ā
call survive. Thank you very much. Joey Inside Cycling World loves you. There we go guys. I didĀ
survive. I didn’t know if I could actually do this every day. And I had a lot of people say too,Ā
Colin, can you really do this every day? Yeah,Ā Ā I can. Uh, Brenda Gas, Brendo Gasone, hiĀ
Colin, thanks for your live stream again. The finale about shout out please hereĀ
to the Philippines cycling maniacs. Dude,Ā Ā thank you so much. The Philippines are theĀ
most represented people here in this stream. I know it. Uh, I’ve seen subscriber count go upĀ
like crazy. Someone brought it up, I think Dawn brought up earlier. I think we’ve gained twoĀ
or three thousand subscribers in this time.Ā Ā Uh, check this dude out here. Asteroid FieldĀ
Productions. Now that sounds like a YouTube channel is saying, “Tire seen pogy win.” Yeah,Ā
dude. That’s why I hope he doesn’t go to Lavalta. Uh, Drew saying, “Hope I did sufficiently, Jojo.”Ā
Yeah, Drew jumped on him a little bit. He told him he got the wrong mindset. The guy said somethingĀ
like, “Well, it’s not it’s not the live stream,Ā Ā so I’m going to go somewhere else.” Please do.Ā
You could, dude. You can do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want. Joey made sureĀ
she put in the uh the description. This is not showing you copyrighted material. People don’tĀ
read the descriptions. I get it. I’m not that upset. Thanks, Drew. Really appreciate it. DrewĀ
did come through for the save there. Uncle Maddie, not not usual to attack on the following day,Ā
but we will see attacks out in the field, guys. Let me just jump back here. I’mĀ
just really catching up with the chat. If you guys want to see lethal climbs, joinĀ
me over for Lavalta this year. It’s kind of like Lavalta is the smallest of the three grandĀ
tours. It’s just as long. Uh it’s got all the hardest climbs. Don, thank you so much, dude. Don,Ā
Don, I think you’ve been here every day. Don’s been Thanks Colin Jojo for all your hard work onĀ
your channel. Happy birthday to Daddy Jojo. Yeah, that’s Bob Kn. We’re going out with supperĀ
with him later today. He’s 84 years old. I’ll be dead again later today. Uh yeah, Joey’sĀ
talking about the description. Yeah, I don’t even care. Every You know what? I think everyone’s beenĀ
so cool in the chat. There’s been just a couple of negative comments, but I don’t let them get toĀ
me because 99.999% have been total support of the channel. Uh so it doesn’t even phase me.Ā
I just tried to explain to the guys. Sorry, dude, but hang out. Anyways, uh Dave, sorry forĀ
the stupid question. No stupid questions, but could you invite Tatty to come to the Philippines?Ā
Millions of fans are waiting for Tatty Pagachar or today Pagachar. The Filipino fans are waiting forĀ
you to visit Pogy, your nickname means handsome in Tagalog. I know that now. Uh, someone’sĀ
asking, “Is Lance here? He might be lurking on the side of the road. If he’s like Johan Bernal,Ā
they’re not even allowed near cycling events, world tour events. Johan Bernneal got IĀ
think uh escorted out of the riders enclosure uh earlier in the tour. He’s got a lifetimeĀ
ban from Evardway. Dude, thank you so muchĀ Ā for your support too. Avard’s been here most daysĀ
as well. Uh very consistently. Thank you so much. Oh yeah, these ones. There you go,Ā
Evard. Thank you so much, dude. Okay, Drew Schaper. Triplets follows a French riderĀ
whose mom follows him on a bicycle with a whistle being kidnapped by the Dream WagonĀ
dude to power a sports betting game. Okay,Ā Ā dude. I’ll check it out. I I hope it’s onĀ
YouTube. Uh we’ve got Anthony Church riding off the front of the Pelon just having a niceĀ
drink. UAE is totally controlling the front end,Ā Ā guys. I don’t think it’s going to break up untilĀ
we do the passages of the Shanaya. After that, there’s going to be some insane attacking byĀ
teams that need something here. It’s their last chance. And then I think they should takeĀ
it today. They got to be careful, though. There won’t be any breaks. Yeah, it’sĀ
still one. Once I see splits in the pelon,Ā Ā guys, they’re out in the countryside now. Anyways, uh let’s just jump into this again.Ā
Climbinder. I will fire up by Terra here. Let’s see this load in. And I’m looking for myĀ
countryside view. I’m getting a countryside view here, guys. Someone else called this a video gameĀ
earlier. Absolutely not a video game. That person probably doesn’t even ride a bike. Okay. Uh,Ā
we are on it. And I think I jumped away from it there, guys. Okay, there we go. Oh, I got thatĀ
funky chicken thing going on where you can see it happening on my screen here. So, it’s onlyĀ
going to show 12 riders, but the entire Pelaton is there. We are out in the countryside. LooksĀ
like we got some buildings nearby. If I zoom inĀ Ā on the map, what are we seeing here? What is beingĀ
represented here? Yeah, there’s uh this area here, Fontaine, Lifeline. Looks like there should beĀ
a bunch of buildings on either side of us rightĀ Ā now. We just came out of the countryside backĀ
into town. Yeah, because if you look at the map, you can see all the open areas behind us here.Ā
So, we’ll jump back here in a second, guys. I’m probably going to do a reload uh off cameraĀ
of it. There is a quick way to refresh it with F5, but I think some of that clipping you’re seeingĀ
is OBS. Um doing some weird stuff on it there. So, I’m going to just jump out of it here and I’mĀ
going to jump back in and then make sure I’ve got you guys in the right spot. Yeah, we’reĀ
back here. Again, guys, thank you so much for the support. Uh, average speed, we hadĀ
100 kilometers to go, guys. Average speed, this is like barely moving for them. 32.6k anĀ
hour. If I was to go outside and ride at 32.6k an hour for an hour, I would come home andĀ
just be like laying dead on the couch. Like,Ā Ā that’s a good moving speed. They’re riding aboutĀ
20 kilometers lower than they normally would right now. They’re probably going to ride normallyĀ
like 48 to 52k an hour on this kind of stage. Uh, Evard, thank you so much again, dude.Ā
Who’s the number one now, dude? Uh, dude, just say Tatty for now because the race reallyĀ
hasn’t kicked off today. Uh, Drew, my pleasure, Jojo and Colin. I talked Drew I talked with JoeyĀ
Jojo about this a couple weeks back even. I can’t believe I’ve done 21 stages. I can’t wait to doĀ
21 more of LWalta. And I said, you know, at someĀ Ā point I’m going to need like a moderator in thereĀ
because sometimes it gets so so much going on. Uh, Drew, I think you might be the man for that job.Ā
Someone messaged me a few days ago and said, “Hey,Ā Ā dude. I only see one person behind the camera. IĀ
think you need a second uh and offered to help me out.” I don’t know who that was. James Anderson,Ā
dude, uh, thanks for the coverage again. Keep itĀ Ā up and I wish you much success with your channelĀ
call, dude. Thank you so much. Very generous here. Uh, thank you for joining us again. Yeah, payĀ
Tatty ample appearance money and he’ll fly there. Usually after these races, I don’t know if theyĀ
do it anymore. Usually after the tour to France, they would go do small criterium races in FrenchĀ
towns nearby, pay the winner or the best sprinter or whoever it may be an appearance fee. I heardĀ
back in the old days it was like 50 grand just to show up and basically do a staged criteriumĀ
race where they kind of knew who the winner would be. It was just to, you know, keep theĀ
tour to France going so towns would compete to get those riders show up. Lance has been doingĀ
a lot of broadcasting of cycling events. Yeah,Ā Ā he’s got his uh podcast going in that got yourĀ
back. What time can we expect the last leg? Oh, on the last time up the shams I’m in Paris. WouldĀ
love to witness it. Okay, dude. I’m going to doĀ Ā that in the background for you here. I’m goingĀ
to get back to that. Let me get caught up in the chat here. My eyes are killing me today, guys.Ā
Uh Evard saying he’s been sort of welcome back unofficially. Okay, Holly, you are a gift to theĀ
cycling podcast world. You are funny, engaging, and Canadian. Holly, love it. Holly, I know you’veĀ
been around a lot, too. I even told Joey Jojo that you were like, I think the last comment yesterdayĀ
uh in the tour to France fam, and you said,Ā Ā “This is the first time I’ve ever seen women’sĀ
pro cycling.” So, that’s what I’m trying to bring forward, too. Again, you want more women’s tour uhĀ
pro cycling coverage, we need to see more ladies in there as well. So, I’m hoping more jump in.Ā
And there’s been some great ones in there already. And Holly, I know you’ve been following alongĀ
this entire tour to France. Uh Joey’s thanking everyone here. Don Evar, James for their uh veryĀ
generous contributions to the channel. Joe 512, Joey Jojo, I’ve got my yellow jersey on. HeadingĀ
in to meet up with Strava Group for our Sunday ride. Thanks for the great chat. Yeah, Joe,Ā
thanks for hanging out with us. Uh hopefullyĀ Ā you can make it back for Trud France fems. That’sĀ
going to take us through next weekend. I’ve got other race ideas after that. But the next bigĀ
thing, Joey Jojo is leaving me at home going to Vegas for a week with the girls. Uh so I’llĀ
be home alone doing all of Lvalta by myself. Okay. Uh it’s bouncing hard here guys. Have fun.Ā
Joe Robert Lovewick the terror of you. I had not seen that till today. Okay. So Robert’s neverĀ
seen till today. While working, I could onlyĀ Ā listen. Okay, Robert, I’m going to show it againĀ
here. Uh, I’m hoping when there’s going to be some separations in the group, I can show you becauseĀ
I love watching the groups come back together.Ā Ā Some days it’s shown it so well. Uh, Matt and AnzoĀ
did tell me there’s about a 15-second delay from their transponders till when they get the data.Ā
So, sometimes you might see a group of riders here and one there kind of do like this reallyĀ
quick. It’s just a lag time in the transponder. that rider may have already caught up in thoseĀ
15 seconds, but what you’re seeing on screen is going to look like they’re doing like 20 miles anĀ
hour faster. So, there’s still those kind of likeĀ Ā little funky things happening. But, it’s probablyĀ
one of the best ways to watch Tour to France. Uh, you can probably see more watching it there thanĀ
you can watching it on something you pay for,Ā Ā a subscription feed over here. So, guys, getĀ
in there. I would love to know from everyone. I would love to hear back from Bera. Can theyĀ
see more people using I think people are usingĀ Ā it to spectate the race. Uh so again, likeĀ
I said earlier, Bike Terra never started out as that. I think they’ve kind of justĀ
stumbled into it, which is awesome. Okay. Um someone’s saying because of the wind here. Okay,Ā
so I missed all that guys. 100 kilometers to go.Ā Ā Ivard, morning Jojo. Thank you for all theĀ
help. Yeah, guys. Joey does all the stuff in the background, all the thumbnails. Every day I’mĀ
like, “I need a thumbnail. I need a thumbnail.”Ā Ā She said to me last night, she goes, “Oh, we’reĀ
going to be gone a week.” She goes, “I got to get all your thumbnails ready.” So, as I was passingĀ
in and out of consciousness on the couch, uh 7:00 at night. Pathetic, I know. Uh Joey was workingĀ
on my LValta thumbnails. I had a peek over them. I think I went upstairs, came back downstairs, andĀ
I saw a bunch of red. And I’m like, that’s the Lavalta going on. Aard. Uh, okay. So, we had thatĀ
there. Less than two hours to the finish. I got to try to get to that one where dude was askingĀ
about when did they get to the final passage. Oh, yeah. Joey in our online slots. Okay guys,Ā
now we receive info that time will be taking on the fourth passage through the finish. Time forĀ
what? Oh, super narrow roads here. like one car wide in places. Riders trying to fight theirĀ
way around it. Okay, they’re saying something about the fourth time through the passage forĀ
the GC. Guys, I’m going to back that up for a second. I’m going back to this race radio here.Ā
I need to see what they said there. I want guys now we will receive info that time will beĀ
taking fourth passage through the finish.Ā Ā They go down the shams four times. So the fourthĀ
passage through the finish line will be taking time for GC. Oh, so maybe they’re goingĀ
to kind of say the GC race is over there,Ā Ā but the race is still on for the teams thatĀ
are desperate for a win. That’s my guess. So I think that’s there’s been so many peopleĀ
saying this is way too dangerous. Way tooĀ Ā dangerous. They definitely don’t want theĀ
yellow jersey to fall on those cobbles and get hurt and lose the tour to France on the lastĀ
day. Oh, the Chateau de Versailles. Wow. Yeah, this place is fancy. Joey, we got toĀ
go out here next year. I need you toĀ Ā work some overtime or something. ThankĀ
you. Uh, and she says it right up here. Okay. Uh, great comment, Holly. Go Canada. Yeah,Ā
you too, Maddie. If you zoomed in on the map view as we saw in the Zift race earlier, uh you canĀ
actually see the progress better. Gladly monitor when available. Okay, the map view. Is thatĀ
what you’re talking? You’re just talking aboutĀ Ā this here. Oh yeah, this will be the V VersaillesĀ
right here, I think. Yeah, here’s Versailles right here. And here’s the parks I was just looking at.Ā
It’s massive. Yeah, I think it’s You don’t go to uh Paris for three days. You need to go there forĀ
like 3 weeks, I think, to visit all the museums.Ā Ā So, we’re just going to hang here for now, guys.Ā
UAE still sitting on the front. And it is raining, guys. It’s raining. Maybe they made the decisionĀ
now on the fly. We’re going to call GC on the fourth passage through. That’s before we even goĀ
up the Mont Mart. Uh, the cobbles will be wet. Um, okay. Maybe next year call and I will be inĀ
France doing the chat from there. That would beĀ Ā amazing. Our daughter Addison said we have toĀ
be there next year. So, Addison, you’re taking care of the house. Apparently, you are takingĀ
care of the house. You just volunteered for it,Ā Ā kid. Uh, I’m proud to be nearing 500 km thisĀ
calendar month. To put things in perspective, two different riders in two. Dude, that’sĀ
pretty good. Uh, my riding has been terribleĀ Ā for the last three weeks. I probably lost atĀ
least 50 off my FTP. Uh, and I’m going to go I might do a Yeah. So, I’m probably going to doĀ
a bike terror ride after this, I think, today,Ā Ā just cuz I found a nice awesome little ride inĀ
Victoria. Wow. Oh, these gardens look fantastic, guys. The gardens look fantastic. I wantĀ
to see what Bike Terra is going to showĀ Ā us through here. That’s what I want to know.Ā
Bike Terra’s running. Uh, we may have just passed out of them. I think I was a bit too lateĀ
there, guys. So, here’s Bike Terra. Remember, we’re just going to see one Pelaton rightĀ
now. Going to try to have a scan around. Yeah, we’re all on sorts. Plasta’s arms. What’s that allĀ
about? fall on the road here. Let’s stick with it. Kind of use the map a little bit, too. Yeah,Ā
this is Versailles here. So, I guess VersailĀ Ā is that to me, I’d call that a suburb of Paris.Ā
Uh, it’s probably its own city. You can see, yeah, it’s all back here on the map. This is allĀ
those gardens. So, I did miss them all. I wantedĀ Ā to see what they look like. Uh, on bike terrorĀ
here, averaging 40k an hour through here roughly. Just going to jump back again. See whatĀ
we can get from race radio feed. I I am It’s going to be just basically, oh, and soĀ
and so took a picture. No attacks yet, guys. Caption this. How about one, two, and three? OrĀ
how about Tatty’s two jerseys a few years ago? Tatty’s three jerseys. It would have been sinceĀ
he’d win all the jerseys. Hit this map again. Wow. Yeah, I would like to be here next year. IĀ
So, I told Joey Jojo if we ever went to France, I don’t think I’d be able to follow it. That’dĀ
be too much driving. I’d want to find some smallĀ Ā French town in the Pyrenees. Yeah, probably theĀ
Pyrenees, I think, is where I’d want to be. Uh, super hot weather there and just hunkerĀ
down. And so every day I would walk down to the small cafe or the pub and I’d hangĀ
out with the locals and I’d try to learnĀ Ā French and they’d laugh at me. Uh I love it. IĀ
think that’d be so great. And they would like, “Oh man, this guy’s doing it though. He’s tryingĀ
to learn French. He’s broadcasting from here.” Uh just backing up again here, guys. Uh yeah.Ā
So yeah, 500ks this month, dude. That’s awesome. I don’t think I’m anywhere near that. I’m I’veĀ
been getting my guaranteed one Zift ride per weekĀ Ā and then a couple Ruby rides. I might have 300kĀ
this month. I don’t even want to look. Actually, Ruben, who’s been an OG supporter of the channelĀ
since way, way back when, uh Ruben might be here somewhere. I think he was going riding. There’sĀ
a challenge route on Ruby called the Legends ofĀ Ā the Tour. It’s a ton of climbing. He’s asked me toĀ
do it with him. And I’m kind of like and he said, “Dude, we won’t kill ourselves. we’ll justĀ
ride easy. We’ll get them done. He goes,Ā Ā “You need to work on your He knows I’m totallyĀ
out of shape right now.” Uh, as a cyclist, uh, he travels all over Europe doing big climbs.Ā
He goes to the Grand Canaries all the time. Uh, yeah, he knows. He knows I’m out of shape.Ā
You can probably see my fatness right now. Uh, Dave here’s asking, “Could riders like BenĀ
Healey attempt one last move?” They might, but I don’t think Ben Healey is the kind of riderĀ
that can get on a breakaway here. I think it’sĀ Ā for stronger riders. Yeah, I can easily seeĀ
like Vout winning today. Very, very strong, very explosive. I think the cobbles whenĀ
they’re wet, uh, I think we’re going to,Ā Ā unfortunately, we’re going to see ridersĀ
go down. It’s part of bike racing. uh vow will probably have if you’re used to ridingĀ
on crappy surfaces, cobbles, dirt, mud, you’re going to have confidence going through them. UhĀ
other people that have crashed on them before areĀ Ā going to be nervous about it. So, we’ll be usingĀ
bike terror a lot more once we get in there, guys. Uh Dave, okay, so Dave asked that seven at lightĀ
burning fuel from 4 a.m. does that. Yeah, dude. It’s been tough, but I love it. If I can keepĀ
this going every day, almost 500 people watching. Thanks so much, guys. Thank you. Uh, it’s youĀ
guys that made the channel. It’s Joey’s idea,Ā Ā me blathering, and you guys watching and enjoyingĀ
this and and participating in the chat and talking about cycling, not just me yammering atĀ
you. Oh, so and so is in third place. Uh, Joey, 25 km. I’m done on my bike. Uh, she’sĀ
saying, “Haha, calling us some serious quads that you all can’t see, but he’s a beast on hisĀ
bike.” Yeah, I’m not a skinny dude uh with skinny stick legs. I do have quads on me. I think I guysĀ
told I’ I’ve told you the story. I used to stream live on Twitch riding my bike and I had someĀ
admirers and so I went off Twitch for a year and just last summer I did a Twitch ride, turned itĀ
on, that same dude found me. Found me immediatelyĀ Ā and I was like, “Whoa, that was enough.” Uh,Ā
that was just me riding my bike on there. Yep, definitely. Matty should likes a manĀ
with strong legs. I definitely don’t haveĀ Ā stick legs. You see different types. YouĀ
see guys who are fantastic cyclists with little sticks for legs. You see other dudesĀ
with huge quads. That’s kind of more me. Uh, yeah. I think this guy’s here.Ā
Impos to Dave. Impossible. Uh, I told Colin East to do a tour to France liveĀ
after show with everyone to hang out and chat, talk about the race, general cycle. Who’s in?Ā
Yeah, Joey’s got so many ideas for me. I justĀ Ā don’t know if I can do them all, but if everyoneĀ
said, “Yeah, we want to do this all the time.” I’m in. Dave, thank you so much for your contribution.Ā
Inside Cycling World loves you, dude. Thumbs up and the big heart from Inside Cycling World here.Ā
Thank you so much, man. Dude, I know you’ve beenĀ Ā hanging around a lot lately. Appreciate it. GreatĀ
questions, great comments. Uh, Dream Teams is here. Dream Teams, you need to introduce yourself.Ā
I’m saying the name wrong on purpose. Uh, oh, guys, narrow sketchy here. Riders virtuallyĀ
coming to a standstill. Dream Teams, I think youĀ Ā should introduce yourself finally for once. I wasĀ
struggling to see the name yesterday. My eyes are so shot from streaming the men’s race beforehand.Ā
Dream Team came in and absolutely supported me 100% in the tour to France fam. knows everythingĀ
about women’s cycling. Uh, I’ve learned so much in the last few day, guy, guys. I think it wasĀ
someone else earlier. Uh, it might have been Jay Taylor. He after he said he goes, “Dude, I justĀ
learned so much.” Scouring through all the teams, looking at all the riders names before I did theĀ
Tur France fe yesterday, I probably could name 10 to 12 female cyclists. Uh, which is pretty sad.Ā
Uh, now I’m studying the teams every day, learning them, and with Dream Team there, it’s really beenĀ
helping me out a lot. So, thank you very much. Uh, I think Dave is in the Philippines. Uh, Holly, not going to Paris yet. Going toĀ
Quebec in September. Closest thing. It’s veryĀ Ā French there, Holly. It’s very French there. Okay,Ā
I just lost where I’m at in my chat, guys. Sorry. uh visiting the tour. Don’t want to wait hours toĀ
get down from summits, go to a village, 20 to 40 km to finish, enjoy the Exactly. That’s what I’mĀ
saying, Drew. I don’t want to be up on a side of a mountain. I kind of almost want to be let’sĀ
get an Airbnb here or whatever. Uh and actually a real room, not just like a closet they put aĀ
bed in, cuz I see those advertised all the time. Uh and hunker down for a week. Go get groceriesĀ
and not at Walmart. Go to the petisserie. Go to the bingerie. Go, you know, all that stuff. PickĀ
up your fresh groceries every day. Go back, cook some food every day. Spend all day at the localĀ
cafe/pub. Roads are wet here, guys. Roads are wet. Guys are bunny hopping uh traffic furnitureĀ
here. Medians, Sketchville. Roads are wet. They’re they’re just wet enough that you could instantlyĀ
crash. I think guys will be putting jackets back on or they’re struggling with their jackets tryingĀ
to jam in their back pocket like this Inter Marsh A Rider is here. Uh, keeping a close eye on it,Ā
guys. I will be bouncing to that soon. Joey Jojo asks, “Why do you keep calling me Joey Jojo?” JoeyĀ
Jojo, that’s what I call you on here. Usually at home, guys, I just call her lady miss. Uh, yep.Ā
Versail has a huge park and museum. Exactly. Savian drew honeymoon in Quebec and uh 1990Ā
then celebrated his divorce there in 1996 at a cranberries concert at the ice ring. Awesome dude.Ā
Well, you had a good year in 1990 and an even better one in 1996. Dude, Joey a zombie. That’sĀ
what I was just going to say. Hard to type today. My cat Miss Vader chewing on me. Avar, did youĀ
know that I had three kittens born on stage one during the tour to France? Actually, it would haveĀ
been after my stream. Uh, Kitty, who doesn’t have a name, I thought a name is for her. She was goingĀ
to be called Ripley from the Aliens movie cuz in the movie, uh, Ripley has a cat named Jonesy. AndĀ
I had this kitty cat that showed up. Joey found it outside. She kept telling me, “Think of a name.”Ā
I thought Rip’s the best name, not Jonesy. Let’s go with Ripley. We’ll counter it. Uh, UltimateĀ
Female Heroine. OG. Love that movie. So, that kitty crawled up on the table here. I showed theĀ
kitty on camera. Put her out there. Actually, she was still lurking. I was doing his whiff ride. SheĀ
was meowing weed. Put me weird. I put her outside. I came out. There was a kitty born. So, those areĀ
the tour to France kitties. There’s three of them. Uh, I’m just still trying to catch up here, guys.Ā
Costa Rica. This is Todd. Costa Rica mountain biking. Dude, do you pay more attention to howĀ
many kilometers or elevation gain when trackingĀ Ā weekly monthly training? Dude, I kind of do both.Ā
I’ve had weeks where I think my best ever week on the bike. I did like 9 or 10,000 meters climbing,Ā
which is nothing for where you live. Uh Todd, uh I had a nice little chat withĀ
Todd yesterday. So Todd lives downĀ Ā in Costa Rica. I think he’s originally fromĀ
Colorado. Moved down there 30 something plus years ago. Now lives down there full-time.Ā
If you’re ever down there, look for Todd. Uh, Drew’s feeding alleycats in Del Nord,Ā
Colorado behind our natural organic deli. I’m in a no pets lease, sadly. Ah, Drew, was itĀ
you I was talking to about all the brick houses in uh, Denver. Joey just lost her mind looking atĀ
them. By Terra, uh, FYI, Bike Terra probably won’t work after crossing the sane. Those laps atĀ
the end are tricky. Yep, guys. Just so you know,Ā Ā I did get word about this morning, too. They saidĀ
after kilometer 100, uh, bite terra might crash or something, but I’ll do the best I can to show whatĀ
I can. Dawn’s a climber. 65% of his body weight is in his legs. We definitely have too many animals.Ā
Yeah, whenever you guys hear me saying I’m doing chores, I’m outside feeding all of Joey’sĀ
animals. Joey Jojo, everyone likes that. Okay. Uh, I think it’s Chris Clansancy. saying VersaillesĀ
is far from Paris guys. Race radio coming in here. Let’s see Sudal. So guys also in your mindsetĀ
this is going to be a real race. You feel already the speed. This is not going to be a walk in theĀ
park. Get ready for it. Get the focus on. Once we hit the circuit, the race will really be on. BoomĀ
time, folks. Bang bang. This is not a parade. Not a parade. Signs here. Poggy, you are my hero.Ā
All deciphered from French. That was a pretty easy one. Uh, someone’s saying here, “Thank you,Ā
Bike Terra.” That’s coming from Drew. Love seeing bike terror here too guys. Really love it. DreamĀ
Team, always watch the men’s version of sports. I could watch, but there will be a lull watchingĀ
the female. Just doubles the excitement. Tennis,Ā Ā cycling, climbing. Yeah, exactly. Dream, thanksĀ
again for hanging out with us this morning. Uh the cat distribution systemĀ
is working and paid you a homeĀ Ā uh and paid your home a visit column. Okay.Ā
Let’s see what we got here. 100enters. Yeah, I’m skinny up top. Well, I’m not so skinnyĀ
anymore, guys. Uh if you’re if you ride bikes, you take and if you take a week off, it’s likeĀ
taking a month off. I keep telling Joey this.Ā Ā If you take two or three days off, it’s like youĀ
feel like you’ve been off the bike two weeks. So, I have to ride right after this and I’ve got aĀ
perfect little route picked. I might smash it,Ā Ā just level myself and then have a YouTube sessionĀ
where everyone leaves me alone. If Pocky doesn’t go to the Valta, I believe Jai Henley. Yeah, IĀ
like that guy too. So, guys, we haven’t seen JaiĀ Ā Henley as yet because he’s not here. Uh, rememberĀ
there’s going to be an exciting stage race coming up. The Spanish version of exactly what you’reĀ
watching right now with tougher climbs. Yeah, Drew’s here talking about the brick homes.Ā
So, Drew, we were like, say Empower Stadium, I would say, is what I would call downtown. WeĀ
were on the opposite side of the stadium away from downtown, I guess, if that makes sense. AndĀ
there was just brick homes all through there. Oh, so Drew’s brother passed away. started toĀ
hear that. Drew 80 years old in mid June. Uh Joey’s asking how we can promote Bike TerĀ
actually. Yeah, Bike Terror dudes Matt and Anslo. Joey said we need to get a link in our descriptionĀ
here to promote you guys more. I think yeah, Joey Jojo, I think I’ve tried to hashtag bikeĀ
teran and it didn’t really do anything for me.Ā Ā Cat names Vera Pa and Wan. I was going to nameĀ
them after the tour to France. I didn’t know what. I don’t even know if they’re males or females.Ā
Joey’s asked if I checked. Haven’t even looked.Ā Ā Symbolic stage when Poggy won’t be overtakingĀ
the cheese. No. Like and like I said guys, that race radio. So, we’re going to do thoseĀ
laps around. Guys, why don’t we do that again just so I can show you uh you’ll get the ideaĀ
of it for anyone else that’s came in late. Uh, where do they have it? They They bouncedĀ
it around on me. The stage and video stage from the inside. Prepare for the stage. H, it’sĀ
too bad. I can’t find it now. Try again up here. If I refresh it, this one here. So, they saidĀ
that uh, let me get this in here for you guys. Here’s the full stage today. It’s going to goĀ
around the shams four or five times. They said they’re going to take the GC flat classificationĀ
at the fourth time around probably say there it’s over but they’re still going to be allowed toĀ
stage win. So there will be teams battling. So we’re going along the same here passing all theseĀ
parks. This is where we go through the museum. WeĀ Ā will go pass right through the museum. They willĀ
cycle right through it. That’s going to be cool to see. Then we do our passages of the shams.Ā
Let’s see how many they do here. I think theyĀ Ā do four or five. Generally, they would do likeĀ
nine loops here. I think it’s what it is. And then they finish about halfway up this path here.Ā
You can see where the sprint point is there. So, they do do four passages. Then they take off.Ā
So, this part up here will not affect the GC. This is just for epic tour glory stageĀ
21. So, someone can still win the stage. Uh tour to France. Okay. I’m not. Okay. So, what amĀ
I missing here? Uh trying to catch up again, guys. Looks like tier 0512. How long does it takeĀ
for them to be at the center of Paris? You mean the finish? I can take a look at that.Ā
Let’s just let the video play, guys. So,Ā Ā they’re going to do this climb three timesĀ
and it’s raining and I think there’s been a lot of concern for riders going down. So, the GCĀ
will be declared. So, once the GC is declared, I think you’ll see the entire UAE team. Well,Ā
maybe not. Pogy, Yonas, they’ll just go right to the very back and maybe they’ll do likeĀ
their own little ceremony at the back ofĀ Ā the stage and then there’ll be other teams likeĀ
we can still win a stage at the Tour to France. Uh what I’ll do here, we’ll do the route againĀ
and we’ll hit the schedule. I want to answer thisĀ Ā question for this person here. Uh tier 0512Ā
time schedule. They’re expecting the finish on the Sham Ziliz uh to be between 1926Ā
and 19:45. So between 7:26 tonight and 7:45 tonight CEST time. So all theĀ
times I’ve been given have been in Central Europe Standard Time. And looking atĀ
this here, what’s going on? Yonas Rickert, guys. I haven’t been paying attention. Uh YonasĀ
Rickert for Yonas, sorry, for Alpus and Decoynic, uh is off the front. Let’s take a look at what’sĀ
going on here. They’re only 3 seconds up the road apparently, but uh it’s one rider. He’s notĀ
attacking. He’s just sitting off the front, guys. He might be going to a feed station.Ā
Sometimes you see riders just drift off the front a bit. They just want to be the first person intoĀ
the feed points, which I don’t see here yet. Uh, don’t forget Yonas Rickert was the riderĀ
that went on that massive solo break withĀ Ā Machu Vanderpool. Uh, Yonas pulled out, I think,Ā
five, seven, eight kilometers and Machu went all the way got caught at the very end. Did he gotĀ
caught, didn’t he? Yeah, he got caught. I thinkĀ Ā he got caught with about 150 meters to go. So,Ā
he’s just kind of dangling off the front right now. There’s nothing serious there. In fact,Ā
they’re saying they’re all back together. Uh, okay. Let’s look here. Wow. So busy. Uh, Uncle Maddie here. Thanks forĀ
calling. Your enthusiasm is contagious. And even though I had a couple surgeries that restrictĀ
abilities, I’ve encouraged to pull the mountainĀ Ā bike out for a ride expecting. Dude, exactly.Ā
Just get on your bike. that whole saying, uh, use it or you lose it. I know on the days that IĀ
don’t ride my bike, I feel worse. I get stiff, uh, things hurt. If I smash myself, I’ll feel betterĀ
the next day. I mean, I’ll feel better in a good way versus my back hurting or my hips hurting. Uh,Ā
Joey told me to make a video after this where I’ll show you my bike setup. I’ll show you my trainer.Ā
Uh, I can throw any of the apps on and show you how they work. Rubber legs are a good thing. Yeah,Ā
tier 512s. So, they’re going to be uh they start the tour late on the final day to get like anĀ
early evening finish. They do the celebrations and then it’s fireworks time and everyone’s so theyĀ
want it to get dark. They don’t want to be waitingĀ Ā 8 hours. So, it looks around 7:30 on the Shamsay.Ā
I think Paris time. See, to me, Paris is 7 hours ahead of me, but all the times from the race haveĀ
came from Central Europe time. If someone knowsĀ Ā the time zones there, let me know. They’re givingĀ
me an 8 hour time change. I thought it was seven. Yeah, I’m I’m assuming the roads are blockedĀ
everywhere. They said they talk a lot. Okay. I’m not sure who that’s okay. That was from Chris,Ā
I think. Uh J Taylor, it’s really a prominade, isn’t it? Not really a race, dude. Uh yes,Ā
usually 21 is, but these four cents up the category 4 climb that’s cobblestones. Uh theyĀ
don’t usually do this. Usually it would just be like a high-speed sprint up the shams. I thinkĀ
they’re concerned with the rain. Leaders may fall down. So on the fourth passage through theĀ
Shamzil, I think they’re going to declare the winner of the tour of France. But that meansĀ
there’s other teams that can go racing. AndĀ Ā someone has a good point here. I’m seeing already.Ā
Uh, and that’s exactly why they’re doing it. So, learn to just chiming in from uh Jesse hereĀ
from Fresno, California. I heard on the podcast that one team hired a mathematician. Genie.Ā
Okay. Not sure what I’m missing there. I got to figure that out. Evard here. Dude, youĀ
dude I’m talking about thanks for all yourĀ Ā contributions to the channel. Probably UCI pointsĀ
available and needed by some riders team. Yeah, guys, there’s UCI points for winning a stage.Ā
So, if you win the entire tour of to France, you get 1,300 UCI points. Those points are rollingĀ
on a 52- week schedule. Uh, teams get points, nations gets points. I think if you win a stageĀ
at the Tour to France, from what I remember, it’s 210 points. So, it’s the same as winning almost aĀ
sixth of the tour, if that makes sense. So, these points are important because very soon they’llĀ
be promoting teams and relegating teams out of the world tour. So Evard, you called it totallyĀ
on, dude. Uh, if Pogy wins Milano and Peru Bay, he’ll be the best classics rider in history. He’sĀ
already podium all the classic races. I think we still have one classic left. Il Lombardia.Ā
I think that’s in October. And I think they call that the race of the fallen leaves. IĀ
think that’s the the word it goes by. So, I’ll be covering that one. Yeah. Right here.Ā
Correction. Can you uh elaborate on the team that hired a mathematician to factor in Watson toĀ
be able to get UCI points? Yeah, I don’t know whatĀ Ā that means. Uh Drew Schaefer, I slept in that inĀ
that park. Okay, there’s all sorts of stuff going on here, guys. I love it. I think looks likeĀ
we had a quick uh disconnection there, guys. I think we’re back. So Drew, I think Drew is saying he sleptĀ
in a park nearby here uh in 1995. Drew, this was this shortly before Drew. It wasĀ
you I think that said you got divorced inĀ Ā 96. Was there a reason for it? Paris lookedĀ
to watch Indrain win his fifth. Oh yeah, dude. I love it. Big Meg. My plane fromĀ
London arrived after midnight. Wow. All that KS towards the end of the race yesterdayĀ
for like 20th place. Bike Terra, much appreciated,Ā Ā Jojo. No need. We’re just happy that uh BikeĀ
Terra got some great coverage. Thank you, Bike Terra. Okay, catching up again, guys. It’sĀ
just before 1800 in Geneva. I think France is in same time as England, an hour closer to us. Yeah,Ā
just all the times they gave me always been eight hours. And I’m like, I thought Paris was sevenĀ
hours from Calgary. UK is seven hours. I’m like,Ā Ā they got to be the same. Maybe not. There mightĀ
be one of those crazy little dividing lines. Once they hit this the shams, it turns intoĀ
a criterium. Jeff is asking if he wins. Did I win? Jeff, you’ve had some great commentsĀ
uh this tour. Awesome comments. I’m goingĀ Ā to show you guys what’s going on here. So,Ā
we’re kind of getting to the racier segment now. Rickert is nowhere front now. He’s back inĀ
the race. You can see here 78 kilometers to go. So, I think what’s going to happen? Probably aĀ
good time for a nature break. Uh, we’re going to go into town. We’re going to do our little tripĀ
through the the museum. We’re going to go backĀ Ā and forth down the shams and these gardens fourĀ
times. The fourth time through, they’re going to say that is the GC standings. Nothing’s going toĀ
change. Uh, there’s so many gaps and if this was a traditional tour, no one would attack anyway.Ā
It’s just a parade. The sprinters race for the finish. It’s It’s a big deal for the sprinters,Ā
but I think after we pass the fourth time through, that’s where we’re going to divert off and thenĀ
it’s going to be a race for whoever wants to raceĀ Ā at that point. Remember, there’s 14 teams thatĀ
haven’t won a thing, so they’re going to want to race. Uh traveling down the right now. Yeah, aĀ
crit with a kicker in this one, that’s for sure. Yeah, the rider’s completely bunched up. Uh tierĀ
saying it’s 6:00 at night now. Okay. So tier is in Paris. So tier 0512. You asked the questionĀ
when would they finish? Uh I just kind of thought UK here, France down below. They’re on the sameĀ
time zone. Obviously they’re not on the same timeĀ Ā zone. Uh I’m 10:00 in the morning, so it’s 8 hoursĀ
ahead. Okay. Thank you for confirming that. Noon on the East Coast here. That’s right. Two hoursĀ
ahead of me. Drew Schaefer. Uh yeah, there we go. I knew it. Drew uh Drew said we had separated 95Ā
so I did a solo in Europe for two months. Sounds like a blast, dude. Sounds like a blast. Guys, IĀ
think what I’m going to do here uh nature break.Ā Ā I might grab a glass of water. I’ve drank all theĀ
coffee upstairs. I think I got a little bit left. I’ll grab a quick water and I’ll beĀ
right back. Thanks for hanging out here. Okay, everyone. I am back. I’ve got the waterĀ
here. I’ve got water and coffee. This is the final push, folks. This is the final push. Uh,Ā
it is very c ceremonial right now at the tour, but there will be a race as well. There will.Ā
Okay, you know what? I I think I’m going toĀ Ā turn bike tear on for this. This is where IĀ
think they said it might No, I think they said it’d still be good for a while. I want to seeĀ
what happens when we get near those buildings. And right now, it looks likeĀ
I think we’re in a tunnel. IĀ Ā think we’re in a tunnel there for a little bit. Yeah, why not just do this for a while, guys?Ā
Otherwise, you’re just looking at that screen.Ā Ā I’m going to turn that on. Boom. Do that. WeĀ
are along the sides of the sane. There. That’s the Sane River right there. We got this giganticĀ
park here. I think we’re Yeah, we’re going to be looping around that park on the other side. ButĀ
I’m seeing Okay, this is where we’re probably losing some data because of the lapse. I thinkĀ
that’s what is happening. Yeah. So, that’s what’s happening there. I’m just going to exit and seeĀ
if I can re-trigger one last time. Uh here we go. Yeah. So, it’s because of the multipleĀ
laps here, guys. That’s why that’s doingĀ Ā that. And they did warn me this. So,Ā
I’ll just jump out of that for now. I think I’ll be able to lose it. Use it later.Ā
And it’s got something to do with the laps. Okay. You can see where they are. BroomĀ
wagons’s fallen. No one’s going to quit today,Ā Ā guys. Uh we will be going through the museumĀ
real quick. Actually seen that happening here. Really cool to see that. Let’s get into theĀ
chat here. Almost 500 people watching. SlamĀ Ā the like button if you can, guys, just so otherĀ
people find my channel. Maybe they can catch up on the tour to France if they’ve missed it. MaybeĀ
they want to join us for the tour to France fec. Uh okay, FY. I’m on a cell phone. YouTube kicksĀ
me out at on your feed maybe 10 to 20 times every stage. Really only happens with your feedĀ
seems to be associated with the ads not playingĀ Ā correctly. Yeah, dude. I don’t know. YouTube’s inĀ
charge of all that. Um I have no idea why. Sorry, dude. But there I just gave you some love heartsĀ
for hanging out with us every day. Thank you, Jay. Uh rolling along here, guys. Let’s see what theĀ
average speed is right now. See if we can get anyĀ Ā updates from the race. Okay, it’s doing that funkyĀ
thing again. Average speed right now still just under 36k an hour. So, I think the race is goingĀ
to take off after the fourth passage. I think we’re just going to baby our way along and thenĀ
it’s going to be an allout war after that. Going to go down here, see what they got to say. Yeah,Ā
they’re just talking about the teams here. Yeah, look at this here. Average speed 16.2K 2k an hourĀ
up a category 4 climb. Uh so they’re barely moving 700 meters. It is steep. There were someĀ
steep section. They’re just talking aboutĀ Ā all the teams here. The tour is now officially inĀ
Paris. The Pelaton inner Paris. Let’s have a look at this. This is over on Twitterx. I guess thisĀ
is I’m officially coming in to the city of Paris. Jump back to the tracker up here.Ā
Pelaton 73 km to the finish. Uh, so my feed is slightly delayed here. I can seeĀ
them riding through the museum now. And because actually I think it’ll be okay once we get off theĀ
lap loops. Uh, where the loops are overlapping, it’s making them go underground, but they’reĀ
I don’t even know what this uh museum is. I should know it. They ride through right throughĀ
the center of it through the courtyard areas. They’ve done this before. They have done thisĀ
before. Is it the Louv? I think it is the Louv, isn’t it? I’m at Lav. Do you think I shouldĀ
wait for them for one and a half hours? I didn’t expect that. Just came out of theĀ
museum. L do Yeah, they’re at the LouvĀ Ā because it’s got the pyramid thing. That’s theĀ
Louv. I guess they’re passing the pyramid thing through the courtyard. That’s the Lou, IĀ
believe. I have not been to France ever. Uh, learn saying JT Taylor, I had the same issue forĀ
the last three times I’ve been on the audience podcast a glitch or something. Yeah, guys, IĀ
have no idea. That’s YouTube being YouTube. Oh, Kelly boy here saying the most corruptĀ
competition in sport. Uh, while you’reĀ Ā there, it’s history. DefinitelyĀ
can’t wait. and watch if you can. So, they’re through the museum. They’re now goingĀ
to be going up the Shamzil. Four passages of it. And I’m going to try to see if we can watchĀ
the lap of the race on bike terra over there. Or maybe we can see I’ll do this sideline. Oh,Ā
they’re passing that golden horse thing. I’veĀ Ā seen that before. So, now we’re getting intoĀ
the what would have been the traditional finish of the tour to France right here. I think theyĀ
did this circuit nine times though without going up that hill over there to make it even harder.Ā
So, I’m going to have a look at that over here,Ā Ā guys. Try to spectate this and see what happens.Ā
So, again, it’s got something to do with multiple circuits on here that they’re trying to figureĀ
out. This looks pretty good to me, though. We’re not going underground. Got some big parksĀ
beside us. How does that correlate to that? Yeah, there’s all parks here. UAE driving the front.Ā
I think we’re going to see UAE just sit on the front till the fourth time around. So, it’s justĀ
going to be like a little ceremonial parade andĀ Ā then I think we’re going to see every teamĀ
that hasn’t won something and perhaps some real feisty uh members from UAE, perhaps aĀ
Tim Wellins uh go full all out. Tim Wellins, Belgium rider used to riding in adverseĀ
conditions on the cobbles. Uh so I can see that all changing. So we just crossedĀ
the official finish line of the tour. We got a sprint point up ahead that thereĀ
might be some riders fighting for. I’mĀ Ā sure Jonathan Milan’s going to probably moveĀ
to the front here. If I look at the groups, so UAE’s off the front. They’re allowing Yeah,Ā
they’re allowing UAE to ride off the front right now. Probably just a procession around and thisĀ
might have already been discussed beforehand. So, the sprint points coming up. Jonathan MilanĀ
knows Tatty can’t take that away from him. So, it’s probably been agreed. youĀ
guys right up front. We’ll doĀ Ā the four laps and then it’s race on.Ā
I think it’s all going to change then. Okay. Uh yeah, troller roller. Yeah, I seeĀ
that too, dude. I’m just like whatever,Ā Ā dude. Uh Pogy has his hand up. Did heĀ
just flat? Dude, I’m looking around. It looks like he’s fine here right now. Poggy’sĀ
riding with the six remaining members of UAE. The Pelaton is just slowly riding behind them,Ā
maybe 50 meters back. I think it might be, “Hey guys, why don’t we do this this yearĀ
since you’re going to win the tour to France,Ā Ā you do the four laps and then we’re going toĀ
light it up.” That’s my guess. It’s going to all change real quick. There’s no way. Let’sĀ
say on the fourth passage, if they say, “Okay, GC wins.” The other teams are not going to sitĀ
there and wait. Pogy will have to ride to the finish, though. I I think that’ll be a rule.Ā
It’s going to be, “Okay, you are the winner.Ā Ā You still have to complete the course though.Ā
Time changes can’t uh affect anything now. Here’s Ryder spraying waterĀ
out of his bottle. Yeah,Ā Ā they want to win on the shams.Ā
The sprinters will try to win. Uh still uh unless someone makes a break soonĀ
and maintains it through the end. Pogy’s gotĀ Ā victory in the bag. Yeah, dude. I’m pretty sureĀ
like so we’re going to see just from that one race radio the way I read it they will declareĀ
the winner after the fourth passage. After the fourth passage we head out to take up thatĀ
hill three times and it’s a serious littleĀ Ā hill climb. Uh it’s right here. It’s 1.1 km atĀ
6%. It’s probably a lot steeper in places. It’s a total classics tour race. They’ve never doneĀ
this at the tour to France uh in the modern era. Uh tier 0512 is saying they just passed. So IĀ
think tier 0512 was at the Louvre tier. Let us know if you were uh Don Don Kong every sportsĀ
now using steroids. What do you mean the most rigged sport? Yeah, that’s a good point. Uh DonĀ
Don, you’re brand new here. I think you’ve beenĀ Ā a lurker. Don has been lurking. He’s finallyĀ
dropping comments and thanks for dropping in, Don. Uh tears saying I’m just lucky. Maybe it’sĀ
tear. Uh, I’m just lucky to get stuck in the square. Dude, they’ll be coming back and forwardĀ
past there. I don’t think they go through theĀ Ā museum again, but when they do the passage, theyĀ
will be going around those gardens again. I’ll try to show it to you here on the on the racetrack.Ā
So, every time they come up and down the shams, they’ll come back around these gardens here. IĀ
don’t know if they cut off here. I think they do cut off here. I think they’ll probably be puttingĀ
up barriers uh once they go around the first time to let them get out and then they’ll just loopĀ
this road a few times. We’ll watch here on the tracker. We got one group still the Pelon. AndĀ
uh what I’m seeing here though, there’s a Uno X rider trying to ride off the front right now.Ā
Uh I think the race might be already on. The race might be already on. Now, this is slightlyĀ
delayed. Video is live. I’m definitely seeing a rider off the front, but he’s like 10 metersĀ
off the front. Huge string of riders behind him, so they’re not waiting to go through the fourthĀ
time. Let me take a look at this here. The sprint point. Okay, so we’ve been through the sprintĀ
point once. If we go back to the map here, you can see it right now. Um, right here, we’veĀ
been through the sprint point once. So, we would have passed it coming this way. You can see theĀ
broom wagon has passed it. That sprint point willĀ Ā be the second time around on the second passage.Ā
How am I figuring that out? I’m just looking at the profile here. So, the second time around, oh,Ā
it says right there. It’s on the third passage. Third time through is the sprint point for 20Ā
points. But the race is already heating up. Oh, first sighting of Bingham Germay. He’s rightĀ
beside Jonathan Milan. So, Aeratran fansĀ Ā rejoice. Uh, Mr. Team Simmons is now workingĀ
the front, guys. Everyone’s pushing hard off the front. A string of like nine 10 riders strungĀ
out. Pelaton blob right there. So, they’re they don’t want them to get away right now. SprintersĀ
want to sprint. Okay, let me get back here. Uh, Lux is asking when they finish. I think theĀ
official finish is between 7:30 and 7:45 local Paris time. Dawn here. I have a feeling YonasĀ
Abramson goes for one last stage win. Dude, uh, some there was a Uno X rider just sittingĀ
on the front. Wow, so many questions. Is there a chance Fingo can win? No, dude. It’s absolutelyĀ
over. They’re going to declare, from what I’veĀ Ā seen on race radio, and that was just one RaceĀ
Radio stream I saw, they said they’re going to declare the winner of the GC after the fourthĀ
passage through. And then we go out into theĀ Ā dangerous sketchy up the but Marmate Mont Martre.Ā
They’re full gas racing right now. Decathlon rider going to the front with a Visma rider based onĀ
the helmet. That’s Victor Camponart’s chasing after him. Bruner Almaril on the front. Uh thisĀ
dude’s a French rider. He’s trying to get away. The Pelaton looks like it’s like half a kilometerĀ
long right now. They look back. They sit up. Okay, that break didn’t work. That’s going to justĀ
keep happening over and over right now. Don,Ā Ā I like your comment here. Uh, there was aĀ
UnoXra. I can see him going again here soon. Uh, Don saying swimming, running,Ā
weightlifting, many are using drugs, too. Uh, yeah. Yeah, they all are. Uh, TriggerĀ
too, the writers took a lot of different than they did 10 years ago. I think they’reĀ
cracked down upstairs at least very well now. They’re trying to set up a break right now.Ā
Break right now, guys. It’s trying to go.Ā Ā They They keep attacking. They keep attacking.Ā
Uh right now, I’m seeing a 10-second gap. So, someone’s got away. I think it’s Alex AlexisĀ
Renard here for Kofodis. Kofodis has not won anything this tour. So, he’s off theĀ
front. Uh he’s got riders chasing him. Like the front end of the Pelon is very strungĀ
out. Probably like 10 20 riders long. I’m seeingĀ Ā an Alpison rider there. Uh another UnoX rider,Ā
another Decathlon rider. They’re just hoping for a little break to get away. Remember theseĀ
guys here uh will have no impact on the GC classification. This rider here in 145th placeĀ
is 5 hours and 34 minutes down on Pagachar. Uh, we’ve got Pascal Acrian out the back. 42 secondsĀ
back. Probably a mechanical. Just waiting to hear something here if there was a crash. I don’tĀ
think there’s a crash. Just a short little gapĀ Ā there. So, probably just going back to the carĀ
quickly. Let’s keep watching this. Riders will be trying. There’s Ben Healey trying to go.Ā
Someone asked about Ben earlier today. They brought him back already. They’re not allowingĀ
it to go. They don’t want it to go too soon. Okay, Pelaton’s got them all back,Ā
guys. Take a look at the map again. Uh, who are we seeing here? Okay, that was justĀ
refreshing itself. Here is the Pelaton all back together. 160 riders here coming through thisĀ
the second passage of the sprint point. The next time around, it’s going to be insane.Ā
Sprinters want to get their sprint points. fourth third fourth time around sorry uhĀ
the GC will be declared but the race will still be on for the stage win. Uh watchingĀ
here right now you X rider on the front looks like an Alpison rider on the rightĀ
hand side of the road here. Still tryingĀ Ā to establish something again off the front.Ā
Let’s get this live here and jumping back in. The bike looks very different from 10 years ago.Ā
Yeah, they’re totally different bikes. Yeah, Julius Caesar the Yeah, it’s all cobble throughĀ
your two. It’s not like peru bay cobbles. Uh butĀ Ā it would still be very rough when you’reĀ
riding. Probably very noisy as well. Uh James here is asking James K, welcome aboard,Ā
dude. They got the uh the French probably like acro acrobatics flight team above flying over theĀ
Shams right now. Looks like uh seven jets, blue, white, and red. They’re flying. Yeah. FlyingĀ
right over the SH. That would be awesome toĀ Ā see that. I think they need to do a lower pass.Ā
Top gun pass. Real low. Uh yeah. So definitely uh bumpy through there. Drew saying here 68 km toĀ
go. Is that what we got left? Let me have a look. 62 km to go. Yeah, it’s probably like hour and aĀ
half. Uh remember we’re doing three climbs there. The best part of the race is still coming, guys.Ā
Best part of the race is still coming. They start late. James uh just for the ceremony. We’ve got aĀ
rider off the back here kind of looking like Ben Oconor. It is Ben Oconor. Looks like he’s havingĀ
a mechanical right now. Uh I think he’s got aĀ Ā puncture. I guess his tire sealant didn’t work.Ā
Flipping around the shams. I think the next time up they’re going to sprint and the time after thatĀ
I think is for GC with the race still continuing. We’re going to see how that plays out. I’m justĀ
going to see something on screen that tells meĀ Ā that. So they’re now coming back through to do theĀ
next time around they’ll be sprinting here. And this is showing a rider off the front. Yeah, fourĀ
riders off the front guys. Bago is Agera. Here’s Yonas Abrahamson, 71st overall, has already wonĀ
a stage at the Tour to France. Marco Holler, Asi, and Drizzner’s for lotto. So, we got six ridersĀ
off the front. They are saying it’s currently 6 seconds, so they can bring this back anytime theyĀ
want. I’m sure Jonathan Milan wants a sprint win. Yeah, starting late. Uh because they want toĀ
do the podiums at the end, do the fireworks,Ā Ā all that kind of stuff. Jeff’s thinking uh QuinnĀ
might try to sneak a win possibly. So yeah, you can see their gap here. Looks like there’sĀ
more of them now. Here actually seeing eight riders in the group now. Let’s just check thisĀ
again. They’re saying seven here. So someone’sĀ Ā probably just bridging on. Py got up there. IĀ
think he’s New Zealander. He is a New Zealand rider. I did remember that for Red Bull. SoĀ
a lot of these riders are going to be like,Ā Ā “Guys, just get up there. Have fun today. do yourĀ
race as long as we’re safe, especially once we’re through this fourth passage they’re talking about.Ā
And again, as soon as I see it on screen, uh I’ll let you know that GC’s confirmed a real raceĀ
I’ll be on then. No time for Quason right now. Upgrade your mind. What do you think theĀ
future of Quinn as a G? I think he’s moreĀ Ā of like a classics rider, like a one day typeĀ
rider. I’ve seen it over at the women’s racing. There’s some incredible sprinters overĀ
there. Uh Lena Vivis, everyone’s like,Ā Ā “Oh, she’s going to win again. She’s goingĀ
to win again.” But she doesn’t place high in the GC. Such a powerful sprinter. Uh she’sĀ
got shoulders bigger than mine. Deadly on the bike. I can spot her from a mile away now afterĀ
watching her for two days. So distinctive how she rides. Kind of like Ben Healey Evard. AĀ
lot of the racing day will be just for camera time for the sponsors. Yep. until we go upĀ
into that hill. Then the real race will beĀ Ā on. I think this race finish will be a lotĀ
more exciting than the past. Let’s just hope no one crashes because then it’s going to be a IĀ
told you. I told you you made it too dangerous. Uh learn to here. Jonathan VA, director of EFĀ
education launched 25 years ago by raising 55 grand for junior development team. Now look atĀ
we have only three Americans in the tour. What an example. Okay, I’m not sure what we’re sayingĀ
there. Uh, Lux here. I’m eating pizza right now.Ā Ā Lux is eating pizza right now, everyone. BreakingĀ
news. Dude, I wish I had some pizza right now. Uh, we got a tutor rider falling off the backĀ
here. Uh, Michael Store 42nd overall Australian rider. Gonna move on some more here. Uh, indeedĀ
sprinters want to sprint. This is Julia Caesar. Uh, Edwin Phen here, guys. Edwin, they’re justĀ
doing the final sprint section here. I’m goingĀ Ā to take a look at the live track again just soĀ
you can see where they are on course. I think I’ll try to pull this up in the background hereĀ
and if it looks decent. Yeah, it’s the laps. So, Ber warned me, they said this might be troublesĀ
because uh the multiple laps. So, I won’t be using Berra here. We’ll get back to this point.Ā
What do we got going on here? So, first place, we got two riders left up front. It’s NeielsonĀ
Powas for EF Bago. Third rider popped in. Magnus Court Neielson. This seems like his kind of stage.Ā
He’s been very quiet this tour to France. Here’s our Pelaton. 156 riders. We got one rider way offĀ
the back here. Michael Store. So, he was having problems back there. It looked like he was keepĀ
reaching into his jersey. I don’t know if he wasĀ Ā having problems with his radio. I would have justĀ
said I would have just thrown the radio out. Uh I think this is our fourth time around now. Sorry,Ā
third time around. So this time it’ll be full gas uh for the sprint finish here. And yeah, youĀ
could see the three riders up front here. The Pelaton is chasing very very fast now. Let’sĀ
keep an eye on this. Where’s Jonathan Milan here? He doesn’t need to win the sprint, but sprintersĀ
want to sprint, just like Julius Caesar said. Julius Caesar, dude. Indeed, sprintersĀ
want to sprint, climbers want to climb, cheaters want to get away with it, floors wantĀ
to laminate. Dude, I love that comment. Uh, Daniel rear wheel bener, I did see that. Uh,Ā
he’s back in there now. Just one rider off the back. Now coming up to the finish now. ThisĀ
should be for the sprinters here. I’ll tell you what I see over at this point. I’m goingĀ
to call it how I see it. I don’t want to see what’s going on over here. Uh it looks likeĀ
Neilson Palace is still on the front here. Yeah, it’s split up. There’s There’s actually threeĀ
riders in the front group. I think they’ve beenĀ Ā caught now on that feed over there. Yeah, withĀ
400 meters to go. What are they going to do here? Is anyone really going to contest this? IĀ
think this is the sprint point now. Poggy’s at the front. I see Jonathan up there, but he’sĀ
nowhere near contesting the sprint point yet. Poggy still sitting in about fifth or sixthĀ
place. Remember, they still got to get oneĀ Ā more full lap done, and that’s when I thinkĀ
the GC gets declared this time around. So, they’re through the sprint point. Uh,Ā
nothing really happened there, guys.Ā Ā Yeah, and you can see here they’re through theĀ
sprint point as well. So, pretty chill through there. We’re going to see who actually got thatĀ
sprint point there. Takes a while for it to popĀ Ā up. They gave Oh, they gave it to JonathanĀ
Milan. Okay, Jonathan Milan. Yonas Abramson still fighting it out for points over here.Ā
Last fourth time through across the checkered flag here. They’re they’re going to declareĀ
GC win. At least that’s how I’m understanding it. Just going to watch the replay here of theĀ
sprint. Jonathan Milan is in third place here. I want to see how aggressive he takes a sprint onĀ
at. Maybe I can give you some speeds. I can seeĀ Ā Yonas Abramson coming up on the far side. UnoXĀ
Rider and Jonathan Milan. They’re side by side going across the finish line here. Under 50K anĀ
hour. So, it was just like a ceremonial sprint, I guess. Uh Jonathan Milan gets it. FifthĀ
time around, we’re going to do GC action here. Okay. Yeah. Okay. So, cobbles are slipperyĀ
even when they’re dry. That’s right. The ground is wet, guys. The ground is wet. Sportsman Philly 22. Welcome aboard, dude.Ā
Uh, how do you rate Milan’s chances ofĀ Ā winning? We are running a tour to FranceĀ
fantasy leading amongst friends. There is sprint points at the end. Check thisĀ
out, guys. As soon as we did that sprint,Ā Ā it looks like Quinn Simmons is off the frontĀ
here. That’s what I’m seeing here right now. Uh he did put an attack. Let’s see if the PelatonĀ
let him get away. No, they’re not. He’s got like, you know, a half second lead. Just waiting toĀ
see what the Pelaton’s going to do. If I come back here again now. Yeah. So, they’ve actuallyĀ
passed the Shams. Yeah, I’m watching the replay of it there. He’s maybe one second off the front. So,Ā
my understanding is we’re going to go back through the gardens again one more times at the Shamsay.Ā
They declare the GC. This is brand new this year. They they don’t usually go up off the road hereĀ
and take on a climb three times on the last stage. So, I think they’re going to declare the GCĀ
here. And because of concerns about the cobbles, the climb, the narrowness of the roads,Ā
the wetness on the ground, I think they don’t want people crashing up there and hurtingĀ
the GC overall. But the stage is still open for victory. Uh there will still be UCI points. RomaĀ
Gregar calling for a wheel right now. His team is right there moving faster now. The last place youĀ
want to have a flat wheel is right here. I mean, these guys are bombing along at 50 60k an hourĀ
through here. Ground is wet. Looks like Quinn did manage to pull out a bit. Yeah, he’s pulling out aĀ
bit here right now. I’m seeing it live now. Again,Ā Ā these numbers change. There is a leading group,Ā
Quinn Simmons and Lipo Witz. Lipoitz is doing something here. Why would he be here? WhyĀ
would his team say, “Yeah, dude, go for it. Uh, let’s take a look here, guys. I’m goingĀ
to go to the rankings. Nothing can change inĀ Ā the standings. Got the brightness going onĀ
again. We’re going to go to general rankings after stage 20. General rankings. So, LeapowitzĀ
has decided to go racing. Lipoitz is in third overall. That’s definitely him. Uh, he has aĀ
1 minute 3se secondond lead over Only. Well, if there was one battle to be determined still onĀ
this tour to France, it’s that one right there.Ā Ā That minute and 3 second gap between third andĀ
fourth place. The other gaps are too big. You can see here 4m minute gap between 9th andĀ
10th. 3 minute gap, three minute gap. Here’s a two and a half minute gap. Okay, KevinĀ
Valon and Johansson there. But that gap is it’s close enough that they might wantĀ
to race for it. So maybe uh Lipoitz isĀ Ā just thinking I’m going to get up the roadĀ
and try to get some more time. But yeah, he’s on Quinn Simmons is pulling Lipoitz awayĀ
from the Pelaton right now. Out to 8 seconds uh to the main Pelaton. 156 riders backing up. WeĀ
got Lutenko back here with Bentoma from Kofodis. Awesome. And we’re going to see this final.Ā
Michael Store still riding. He’ll be riding by him. Okay, that’s those guys. So Store’s gottenĀ
back on somewhere. These two are actually quite a ways back here at the Shams. They’re not. Yeah,Ā
they are moving. Aha. Take a look at this here. See this? They don’t go back through the museum.Ā
They come across here. They cut across. Now, I bet you there’ll be barricades put up becauseĀ
they’re going to go out into the countryside andĀ Ā I think they come by here one more time and finishĀ
down the Shamsil countryside. What I meant by that was they do the three ascents up this route. TheyĀ
will still go down the Shamsil one more time. So, group one here will continue forward.Ā
Go left past the shams one last time and then yeah, I guess yeah, again, I’m stillĀ
kind of wondering why Lipoitz is up here because if they declare the GC here, well, maybe he’sĀ
just Yeah, I guess they can’t change the GC after they pass through here. It’ll be purely forĀ
a stage win, but he’s putting in a huge effort. uh to maybe cross the finish line and say, “Yeah,Ā
Oscar only, you can’t catch me now.” I thought maybe later there’d be a chance, but no, it’sĀ
going to end right here. I’ll be watching theĀ Ā screen closely over here to see what they tell me.Ā
Uh, someone’s going to bet on Yasper Stoven today to win. That’s a possibility. Mike Seman here.Ā
Uh, Lux is saying they’re kind of worried now. Uh, Philly, I figured the oddsĀ
were Fetty Fetty. Frank Zappa,Ā Ā is that what it is? Okay. So, yeah, they wereĀ
sprinting. So, the sprint points already done. Yeah, dude. If I see a team radio, I thinkĀ
this was learn toear. If I see a team radio,Ā Ā I will give it to you. I try that every time.Ā
Dawn’s honored to have Julius Caesar in the chat. Quinn is Yeah. So, guys, Quinn andĀ
Lipoitz are out front. I’m just watching here to see what they’re going to say. I’mĀ
expecting Team Radio to say to Lake Pogy,Ā Ā “Congratulations, you’ve won the tour.” AndĀ
then the race will really heat up. Yeah. So, Jonathan Milan got first at the sprint. AbramsonĀ
second. That guy’s awesome. Bingham got third.Ā Ā Anthony Church got fourth. Uh, we had RexĀ
up there. Matteo Jorgensson was seventh who went on a break. Tim Wellins,Ā
Pogy was up there for four points. Okay, so Lipoitz and Quinn have passedĀ
through the checkered flag at the end. I’m still waiting to see something here aboutĀ
the GC classification. Might pop up when uh Tatty comes through. Tatty’s sittingĀ
right on Tim Wellen’s wheel. Yeah. Um RCG here talking about uh Michael StoroĀ
off the back. I think he’s back on now. David Cow, Daniel Cow, Mechanical Israel,Ā
Premier Techch, Lipoitz, Quinn Simmons. Yeah, they’re off the front right now. Still off theĀ
front. I have So, I’m just watching. I’m just dot watching now, guys. I want to see them say,Ā
“Congratulations, Tatty. You won.” Everyone was freaking out about the stage, especially if it’sĀ
wet. Sprinters are upset that they don’t get to have a proper sprint. GC guys are upset thatĀ
you’re making the last stage too dangerous. So just kind of hanging out here, seeing whatĀ
kind of race feed they’re going to give us. SoĀ Ā they’re through that point now. I I would expectĀ
to see something. Okay, fourth time on the line. Simmons and Liquids are 10 seconds ahead. TheĀ
times for the overall leadings are establishedĀ Ā now. They are 50 kilometers to go today. Okay,Ā
so they’re saying, okay, let’s wait for something else here to come through before I confirm it.Ā
Uh that was 1 minute ago. They’re saying theĀ Ā times are established for the overall standings,Ā
but there’s still a race to go. Uh I think it’s going to get insane now. 11sec lead. Uh QuinnĀ
Simmons is not going to let off. Can he time trial away for 49 km? Yes, he could. EspeciallyĀ
if you have if he has Leapowitz with him. Maybe that’s what Leapowitz is thinking. Man, I got myĀ
third place overall. Now I’m going for stage win. Pagashar drifted far back now. He’s probably 40thĀ
or 50th place in the Pelaton. I think we’re going to see other teams coming up now trying to get inĀ
this breakaway effort trying to bridge up. Swoosh kid saying be careful. I say so too. JanetĀ
Williams is laughing about something here. Okay. Did Jonas finally make his slideĀ
your accelerate. This guy’s always gotĀ Ā the comments. Did Jonas finallyĀ
make his move? It’s coming now, bro. It’s coming now. He’s going toĀ
pull back five minutes in one lap. Guys,Ā Ā I think the top GC is confirmed now. I IĀ
haven’t gotten word here anywhere in the feed that congratulations to Tatty. That kindĀ
of thing, but I’m hoping to see that here soon. Yeah, Don Kong saying, “Yeah, Remo RemcoĀ
won first place overall tour of France.” No,Ā Ā Scaddyy. Uh Remco was outĀ
on What stage was he out on? I think he was out after the pair of goods. No,Ā
he he abandoned on the turboline. That’s when he abandoned. Uh Stars and Stripes, baby.Ā
Yeah, love that jersey. Love that jersey. Uh Julius C. There should not be specialĀ
rules for the GC. Just my opinion. Yeah,Ā Ā I think this year I think this is what we’re goingĀ
to see going forward because I’m sure to France, whoever does the broadcasting knows thatĀ
viewership is probably majorly down on the final day because you already know who’sĀ
won. They’re not really racing. It’s justĀ Ā a sprint for the finish. I see hearts goingĀ
off everywhere. Who wants some hearts? We’re getting lots of hearts going off here, folks.Ā
There’s a bunch from me. uh they want to get more viewership on the last day. They don’t wantĀ
to have like 10% of the people watching. So,Ā Ā they need to make a race out of it. And that’sĀ
what they’ve done. And, you know, to counter the fact that they think it’s too dangerous.Ā
They don’t want guys losing the GC on the veryĀ Ā last day. They’re declaring the GC earlier inĀ
the race, but it’s still a race to the finish. Let me catch up here, guys. Going to keepĀ
a close eye on 12 second lead. I mean,Ā Ā they could pull that back anytime they want. AndĀ
I want to see which way they’re going now. So, are they going to turn right here? So, here’sĀ
Leapowitz and Simmons. I think they’re going toĀ Ā do one lap of the park. Let’s see if they hangĀ
a right or a left here. And then they’re going to go around the park, do the shortcut throughĀ
there, hang a hard right, head out to the hills. So, they’re heading out now. ThisĀ
is where it’s going to get hard,Ā Ā guys. This is where it’s going to get reallyĀ
hard. I think the Pelaton’s going to blow apart. Uh, Monday Network, how many tours do you thinkĀ
Pogy Oh, something’s going on back there, guys. Not sure what I saw there. Uh, how many tours youĀ
think Pogy will win? I guess it depends how much longer he wants to keep going. He’s only 26 yearsĀ
old. I know he looks very tired and almost kind of fed up with the tour to France right now. ProbablyĀ
fed up with the interviews. I don’t think heĀ Ā handles that stuff well at all. Uh he’s exhausted.Ā
Give him a couple days off. He’ll be ready to race again. So, I thought I saw someone down onĀ
the back there out of the corner of my eye. Vout is somewhere in the pack. There’s a giantĀ
pelon cruising along. I think we’re going to seeĀ Ā Van Art jump out of this pack at some point hereĀ
and do something for Vizma. He’s the perfect guy to do it. Learn to here. Good point, dude. KeepĀ
in mind that various placing is worth a UCI point. It’s my understanding the team must have a certainĀ
amount of overall use points in order to qualifyĀ Ā for the tour to France. I could be wrong. InterarĀ
rider just saw something again flash out of my eye there as well. I don’t know if he was crashingĀ
or not. Uh right beside the motorbike in fact. See if we get some of that. Let me justĀ
run through the feed here. I’m going toĀ Ā get back to learn to in a second here theirĀ
point mechanical for Muse. Jordy Muse. Oh, look at this guys. Look at this image here. ThisĀ
is what they’re going to be climbing up. This is why people are freaking out. Look how narrow thisĀ
road looks. It’s all cobbled. All cobbled comingĀ Ā through here. Uh fans are cheering for It looksĀ
like Kevin Valon. I think they’re saying something about collecting beatons here. Love it. I It’sĀ
gonna be crazy coming up. Florian Leapitz goes with Quinn Simmons. They’re working well together.Ā
Gained an 11second gap. I think it’s bigger thanĀ Ā that now. They still haven’t said anything aboutĀ
congratulations to Tatty. So, I’m just going under the impression from one race radio feed thatĀ
I heard. It’s lighting up, folks. Yeah. So, they need UCI points. You need to be a world tourĀ
team. There’s only 18 and they work on a promotion relegation system. So 18 world tour teams nextĀ
step down is pro pro series. A pro series team as an example is UNOX. That’s why I keep saying theĀ
big winners of this tour to France is UNOX because they’re a Pro Series team and they have a riderĀ
sixth place overall at the tour. That’s huge. They won a stage at the tour. There’s UCI pointsĀ
for all that. the end of this year, they do the promotion and the relegation. What do you get forĀ
being a World Tour team? You get entry to everyĀ Ā World Tour events. If you’re not a World TourĀ
team, you’re waiting for a wild card. Uh those of you that follow cycling, you can see that ThomasĀ
Pitcock’s not here. Uh where is he? He races for Q36.5, which is a Pro Series team. They did notĀ
get a wild card to the Georgia France. We We’re going to see him next month, though. They’ve got aĀ
wild card for the Welto for sure. So, good point. These guys are racing for UCI points. Now, there’sĀ
individual UCI points, there’s team UCI points, and nation UCI points. It all gets ranked. Uh,Ā
you can spend a lot of time digging into that. Uh, yellow quantum here saying, uh, Remco the nextĀ
Mercs. Dude, he’s got to win some He’s got to win the tour of France. He’s got to win the Jirro.Ā
Uh, I really like Remco. Actually, something just flashed up yesterday. Uh word showed Remco goĀ
flying over that bridge. Looked like he was down like I don’t know 30 feet down curled up in aĀ
ball at the bottom. I think a lot of people forgot about that. Edwin’s asking where’s Pogy now,Ā
dude. He’s right in the Pelaton. And from what I’mĀ Ā seeing here now, the Quinn Simmons Leapoitz breakĀ
has been pulled back. They’re all back together. We’ll look at the map here and see where they’reĀ
at. So, they’re heading out now, guys. This mightĀ Ā be a good time to try it. Maybe I can do it onĀ
the first time around. We might be able to do it here. I’m going to try it here. Uh because we’reĀ
on the first lap of this circuit. Uh and I was warned by Bike Terra that this may not work wellĀ
on the laps, but we’re going to do it, guys. We’re going to do it. We’re going to give it a shot.Ā
Uh hopefully this works. Looks got some weird pop in here. Just trying to figure things out. IĀ
don’t know if it’s working correctly or not here. And I hate to show things uh when they’re notĀ
working correctly. Like up ahead, I can see it’sĀ Ā not. Yeah, it’s popping around here, guys. I’llĀ
try it a little bit longer. So, we’re we’re wedged in between these all all these buildings here.Ā
It’s exactly what I’m seeing on screen. A road uh with a kind of like a boulevard on either side,Ā
lots of trees and grass areas, but this speed doesn’t seem right to me here. So, I’m going toĀ
jump out of here right now. We’ll uh jump back and see what we’re seeing over here. We’ll try thatĀ
again in a little bit. Everyone’s still together, guys. Uh did I just move that? Hopefully I didn’tĀ
move that. Fixing that up. Jumping back here. See if I can get zoomed in anymore. So, thisĀ
is our first descent up this category 4 climb. It is 1.1 kilometers at 5.9% average gradient.Ā
It’s a lot steeper in places. So they’re going to do this loop three full times and then IĀ
think they do one final rush down the shamsĀ Ā for one final sprint. Let’s see if anyĀ
of the sprinters are even anywhere near left by. I think we got a tutor rider onĀ
the front here. Tutor is at the front. Uh quarter of a second off the front. PelonĀ
completely strung out here. It’s wet. Just the roads are just damp at this point. So,Ā
they’re probably luckily it’s dried out. I actually did see Tatty there. LooksĀ
like he’s about 40 or 50 at the back. And okay, did I actually not turn? Okay, that isĀ
back to there. So, yeah, it’s because uh and again guys, Bike Terror Warn me yesterday. They haven’tĀ
got this figured out yet. It’s the multiple loopsĀ Ā around. It doesn’t build the track very well onĀ
there for some reason. And that’s the best way I can explain it right now. Uh yeah, the finalĀ
loop round is going to be good. Uh no one in the breakway now, but the break is trying to establishĀ
up front here. They’re all going to be pushing to be in the break. Guys want to win the final stageĀ
of the tour to France. Uh they know it’s goingĀ Ā to be hard on the sprinters. And this hill, guys,Ā
sits way up above the rest of Paris. Way up above. Still here. I’m seeing Tatty. He’s probably inĀ
30th place back there. He’s just He wants to stay safe at the front. I can see the Visma ridersĀ
at the front right now, too. They don’t want toĀ Ā get caught up in any crashes going up the climbĀ
cuz it’s super narrow. If you get caught there, you could fall way behind. And again,Ā
probably another reason why they saidĀ Ā we’re going to call it back there, which I stillĀ
have no evidence for. Let me bounce back here. Two door drive the bunch. You’ve seen that MilanĀ
got the sprint. Nothing about the overall right now. So, we’re just going to stick here. Again,Ā
the break has not gotten away. Tudor is strong on the front. Vizma’s up there. Bing Germaya isĀ
there as well. Bingham wants to get over these sprints to take the final sprint victory. He’sĀ
going to have to do it three times in total.Ā Ā He’s hoping Jonathan Milan falls off the back soĀ
he can have a final victory. Uh if Bingham Germay wins the stage today, it totallyĀ
redeems Intermar’s tour becauseĀ Ā so far they don’t have a lot to show for it.Ā
And that’s the same as all the other teams. Uh oh, and guys, I didn’t even see this. So, forĀ
some reason, I missed this altogether. We gotĀ Ā Julian Alfipe. Someone asked who’s in the break.Ā
I didn’t know we had a break. I’ve been too busy messing around with bike terra. We got Julian AlfaĀ
Phalippe and Arnold Dele up front. 40 km to go and they have a 12 second gap. Julian Alfalipe, yeah,Ā
champion Arnold Dele struggled a few days ago. Looks like he wants to redeem himself as well.Ā
What’ they call him? The bull of Leerette. IĀ Ā got to look up where Leerette is now. Uh I’ll hitĀ
the chat again, guys. Uh I’m actually seeing the attack on the replay here of uh Julian attacking.Ā
So right now I’m only So this attack just went this was an aggressive attack. I’m watching 39.9Ā
km. I’ve got 39.6 km here remaining from the tour. So they just went off the front in a 9% section.Ā
All cobbles. The road is maybe one and a half cars wide. It actually narrows down even more. SoĀ
they’ve just done that attack and got a big lead. And here we go. Riders are coming up already. Now,Ā
is Pogy really up there? It says Pogy has joined him. I think Pogy’s just leading the group of theĀ
Pelaton chasing, but we’re going to see riders splinter out the back here. Va Vanart showing up,Ā
guys. Here he is. Tunis here for Astana. Alfalipe up there. I think Pogy’s just staying sha safe.Ā
Yonas is with them. So, they’re actually racing. They are actually racing right now. So YonasĀ
decided to go with Pogy. Vout Van Arts there as well. Uh the street here is so narrow. It’sĀ
like one car could drive down in one direction. Uh I would not want to drive in this part ofĀ
the world ever. Let’s just jump back to the map so you can understand what’s going on. We’reĀ
looping around this gigantic church that’s here. So yeah, fantastic. Tons of people sittingĀ
there. Uh let me just jump back to the chat. See if I can figure this out. Dawn. Yeah, the yellow jersey. Pogy. TheĀ
rest of the jersey. No one cares. Well, if you get the green jersey, you probablyĀ
won a lot of stages. And those green jerseyĀ Ā points are important because theyĀ
equate to UCI points for your team. Uh Julius Caesar. Okay, let’s go back to sportsĀ
and filling. Germia is not trying hard enough.Ā Ā Look at the dog. The dogged mentality of Healey,Ā
Simmons, and Abramson make every day. Ger Germay is here in this very front group. He’s tryingĀ
to get uh away. I’m waiting for this to refresh. Like, I’m not sure why these guys are so far backĀ
here. 154 riders. I’m going to give this a manualĀ Ā refresh here, guys. It says they’re stillĀ
climbing, which they are still climbing. So, there’s a gap forming right away. Six riders upĀ
front. Wow. I would never have thought this. We got Pagacher at the front, Alfa Phippe, Burke Mo,Ā
Vanart, uh Jonas was there before, Arnold Dele, David Ballerini, Tobias Lond Anderson for teamĀ
picnic postNL. So, he’s been given free reign to go today as well. His team leader, Oscar only,Ā
fourth place overall at the tour to France. Uh, I’m seeing a UNOX rider there comingĀ
on now. Who is the UNOX rider? Definitely actually Pogatar is sitting on the veryĀ
front right now. He is leading the entireĀ Ā tour to France. He probably just wants toĀ
put this thing to bed, guys. Votes on his wheel. Arnold Le’s there. Wow. I can’t believeĀ
he’s up front. I wonder what his team’s saying to him. I I bet you they’re Who knows? I knowĀ
in the past they used to always say Poggy was kind of reckless. He would attack all the timeĀ
and they didn’t like it. Yeah, he wants to race. Uh Julius here saying the sprinters don’t want toĀ
lose the GC early because of the mountain stages.Ā Ā Okay. Is Vout still scatty? Vout is in the frontĀ
breakaway group. There’s seven riders there now. Actually, they’re saying it’s all coming back. IĀ
can see them coming down the hill now. Coming back down the hill. Here’s Alfalipe on the attack. SoĀ
Alfalipe lit it all up. Pelaton’s gaining back on them. Coming downhill. Let’s see which way they’reĀ
going to go. So they’re now coming back out. I’m wondering. Yeah, we’re going to have to watch thisĀ
to see which way they go. So Pogy is in the front group. It says Kevin Vocalon’s there, too. There’sĀ
19 riders now. I would expect more to be piling in right away. There’s just a stream of ridersĀ
coming down this gradual downhill all behind them here. Uh it’s going to start growing in sizeĀ
again. Boats on the front. Pogy’s there. Uh looks like we got attack now here. I think this is anĀ
Estana rider trying to get off the front from that 19 riders that are being rapidly pursued by theĀ
remaining Pelaton of 141 riders. So Estana trying to get something out of this. Some super sketchyĀ
corners here. It’s still wet on the ground.Ā Ā Stana going and I think that’s a BahrainĀ
victorious rider. Victor Campen Arts is trying to bridge up to them. Poggy’s left maybeĀ
a bike or two long but he’s quickly on them here. Uh I’m going try to now guys. My eyes areĀ
getting sore. I think I I honestly think IĀ Ā need sunglasses doing this. Uh someone wasĀ
saying Merlier was the European champion. I want to read that. And then I saw anotherĀ
comment about Viviz. Oh wow, so busy guys. Love it. Thanks for everyone being here today.Ā
Really appreciate everyone watching the channelĀ Ā over the last little while. Merier is the EuroĀ
Champs jersey almost as big as Vivz. Yeah. Yeah. Uh check out Lena Vibes. I like I saidĀ
yesterday I’m like did she come from a swimming background? Just that build in her shoulders.Ā
Uh CBC and Pogy will win eight TDS. Yeah, he could. He’s young enough to do it. Mr.Ā
DB asks, he’s back. Could I have one moreĀ Ā question today? Why do they have the best roadĀ
bike riders in the world and make them ride on cobbles? It’s a hazard and leaves a lot ofĀ
chance. Dude, it’s just tradition. I mean, even the Shamzil, it’s cobbles. These aren’t likeĀ
Perry rubĆ© cobbles. This is not like the cobbles in northern France, Belgium. Uh they’reĀ
kind of like laid-in cobbles kind almost like brick work. But yeah, very rough stillĀ
and in the wet they’ll be even slipperier. Uh Mel here’s wondering why they don’t makeĀ
a bike with square wheels. I guess too theĀ Ā cobbers some guys are better at riding theĀ
cobbles and so it’s it’s a predominantly a European sport especially the tur ofĀ
France the event itself Pogy is leadingĀ Ā the way guys he’s in the front group rightĀ
now uh unbelievable there’s 20 riders here okay they just changed it all out of me uh theyĀ
have an 8-second lead over the Pelaton that’llĀ Ā all come back I think I think Pogy just wantsĀ
to sit on the front have no one ahead of him So no one can crash in front of him and get toĀ
the finish line. Uh Tom Boon. Yeah, dude. I see this too. I would have liked to see only make aĀ
hard push to pass Lipoitz. It’s like Yeah, it’sĀ Ā like 1 minute and 3 seconds. Would have been Yeah,Ā
today that was the number one battle for me too. I talked about it earlier. I mean, I would have beenĀ
like, let’s go for it. Let’s go. Let’s Let’s get a war going. But they did kind of limit it with thatĀ
fourth passage through if that’s really happening. Uh they still haven’t said anything here. MattyĀ
Mccorix here hasn’t done a lot this year’s tour. I’d love to see him win. Uh and Tron Shaw’sĀ
attacking for Dathlon right now. But again, it’s just one rider up going off the front.Ā
19 bringing him back. And another one goesĀ Ā and they bring him back. Thinking that breakĀ
has developed. I am seeing a split here now. So Bastian Tron Shong for Decathlon IG2R Lemonial isĀ
off the front by four or five seconds. Again, the road’s still damp here, guys. Pogy does need toĀ
stay upright. They do have a big group. Actually, you know, the groups behind are all over the placeĀ
right now. They’re not showing it correctly on theĀ Ā tour tracker here. Not at all. So, one and two areĀ
going to be Tron Shaw and the 19 riders chasing. And then there’s like a group here, three. This isĀ
Flor and Leapitz. There’s multiple groups when youĀ Ā look all the way down the shams right now uh ofĀ
like 30 and 40 riders and it is looks like it’s raining quite hard right now too. So the nextĀ
time up uh the climb could be pretty hairy. 33 km to go. Let’s get it, folks. Let’s get it.Ā
We’re just going to stick there for now. Hang in the chat for a second. Uh yeah. So Tom, uh IĀ
would have loved to have seen that happen, too. Vout is still in the first group. Perry Poncher.Ā
Oh, the the brothers are there together. Different teams, but Orian Perry Ponch and Valentine PerryĀ
Ponch Vanard is in the very front group. There’s uh one. Okay, here’s 28 riders. Now it’s allĀ
came back together. They’ve caught that rider, Tron Shawn, that went up front. Counterattack by aĀ
UNOX rider here. probably going to be uh Tobias I think is his name. Let’s see. I’ll tell you whoĀ
it’s going to be. Where is the UNOX rider? Oh, Abraham. Yeah, this guy has doneĀ
so much this tour. Remember guys,Ā Ā the coolest thing about this dude, he becameĀ
a better cyclist as a pro after he said he put on 20 kg of body weight uh before he wasĀ
too skinny. 20 kg seems like a lot. I’m like, are you sure it’s not 20 pounds? But they keepĀ
repeating 20 kg. Uh that’s 44 lbs. Aaron Buu is up here. Sean Pussan Kaden Grows back in theĀ
mix. He’s got some confidence from yesterday.Ā Ā Matteo Trenton. Benium Germ is in that group,Ā
guys. I knew it. Bennium’s trying to get away from the other big sprinters. He doesn’t wantĀ
to be anywhere near Milan uh to try to contestĀ Ā this final win. Ground is absolutely soaking.Ā
You can see puddles forming. The cameras I’m looking at are all clouded in and covered inĀ
rain. Everyone needs to be really careful now. Um, yeah, guys. Fantastic. If you like whatĀ
you’re seeing, just quickly take the time to hit that little thumbs up button over there so IĀ
can keep doing this going forward. Joey Jojo runs a tight ship around here. Wants me to do well. IĀ
got to catch up, guys. Yeah, the Mont Marte Hill. Uh, yeah, dude. really appreciate your effortsĀ
here too, man. Thanks for everyone being here. Someone here, great comment, yellow quantum.Ā
I love this comment. 39 km is an eternity of possibilities. Absolutely love that comment, dude.Ā
You’re so right. Uh, looking now though, we got 30.3 km. So, in that 39 km, we’ve seen 28 ridersĀ
take off on the front. Pogy’s up there. I don’t see Yonus. Vanart’s up there. Uh, Bing Germay isĀ
in that group. 28 riders going hard here, folks. Uh, I’m not even seeing all the wrestlers. We’veĀ
only got a group behind them of 22. Obviously,Ā Ā there’s a lot more riders out there. I’m going toĀ
give this a refresh because there’s going to be other groups out there. 28 up front, 35 in theĀ
second group. We still have another 100 riders floating around on the course somewhere.Ā
They’re probably all in that second group. Uh, Michael Sean, expect the secondĀ
ascent will break the field intoĀ Ā subgroups and the third will be finalĀ
selection. Yep. And it looks like Pogy wants to be in that final selection.Ā
He probably just wants to win. Like,Ā Ā I’ll give it a shot in the final. He doesn’tĀ
have to sprint against Jonathan Milan. Uh, Dawn here is wondering how much the second andĀ
third tier riders earn per tour. Probably stillĀ Ā pretty good. Someone mentioned earlier today thatĀ
Isaac Del Toro for UAE, who could be the future of UAE, he makes ā¬800,000 a year. So, a fractionĀ
of what Tatty makes. I think someone said too that Tatty is um I think he’s on 8 million eurosĀ
per year. I think that’s the number I remember. So many funny comments here. Jamie’s hoping YonasĀ
can win at least one stage. It won’t be this one,Ā Ā Jamie. Unfortunately, uh Yonas is in a groupĀ
further behind. Again, sketchy. Yeah, they do take a hard corner. So, they they did set upĀ
barricades. Let’s just have a look at that again. Yeah. So, here’s the yellow jersey group. They’reĀ
going to hang a hard left here. Now, they don’tĀ Ā continue on down there. They got barricade set up.Ā
And I’m watching a bit of a replay here. There’s three riders trying to get away from Pogy rightĀ
now. I’m sure he’s going to pull that all back. So now they start the ascentĀ
again. It’s probably goingĀ Ā to splinter and fracture again before our eyes. So Yonas will not win a stagesĀ
here. Yellow Quanton says,Ā Ā “I’ve had it with Yonas.” And then he puts S. IĀ
love it. Time for Pogy to show them what Okay, Jeff. What EO can really do? Uh San hereĀ
neutralize stage. So no chance for only. Yeah, my understanding is that when we went through theĀ
fourth passage of the Shams through the finish, they’ve kind of said that’s itĀ
for the overall classification,Ā Ā but there’s still a a stage victory for anyoneĀ
out there. It won’t affect the overall standings though. Uh yeah, someone’s saying hereĀ
EPO is 20 years ago. Don’t be that guy. Uh, Pogy definitely good for at leastĀ
probably two, three, four more if he wants. Yeah, dude. They’re climbing and descendingĀ
on cobbles. And it is raining again,Ā Ā too. Right. Jeff’s got it here. Jeff’s saying,Ā
“Yeah, I’m seeing I thought it was four or five groups.” Jeff’s confirming here for me. There’sĀ
four groups today. Uh, they’re not being shown.Ā Ā They’re not even being shown on the tracker.Ā
They’re only showing two groups overall with that being 63 riders. Well, there’s about 160 ridersĀ
in the race. I don’t know where they’ve gone. Ball rain victorious pushing on the front. ThatĀ
front group is just like like a total Wattsfest, guys. If you look at the jersey here, it’s aĀ
Wattsfest. Constant rotation through, constant attacking. Pogy just sitting there in fourth,Ā
fifth place, waiting for the next descent up the hill here. Let’s get back to this here. ThisĀ
might be able to show it to you better. Uh, and this is where we knew I was warned. But I think IĀ
was warned two days ago that it may not work wellĀ Ā on the the tracker here. Sorry, Bike Terra becauseĀ
of the multiple loops up. So otherwise, I’d be definitely showing this to you. I’ll try again.Ā
See if we can get anything going here. That’s going to make sense. Uh we do have the spectatingĀ
group, uh their league group, and we do have Yeah, they’re only showing two groups. They’reĀ
getting all the data from the tour of France.Ā Ā For some reason, we are not seeing any of the dataĀ
from the rear group the and I should say groups. Okay. Going up through the buildings here. Yeah,Ā
I can see it pretty good actually. I’m going toĀ Ā wait and see until what we go back on. We’reĀ
going to hang a hard right here. I’m actually on by terror right now. And they do hang aĀ
hard right. The roads are overlapping. So, I think that’s from the circuits. If anyoneĀ
jumps off, I’ll jump in there to show you that. What’s the race feed saying here? 27 ridersĀ
in the league group. I think it’s 28. Yeah, here’s the rain. It’s a It was It was absolutelyĀ
pouring on the Shams 8. And I’m watching the uh the lines riders are takingĀ
on the course. Very sketchy. One wrong turn on one piece of pavementĀ
with that one little white line. Look, you know, like a pedestrian crossing, yourĀ
tour could be on the ground real quick. Yeah, they’re taking these corners at sub 25k an hour. But wow, 28 riders here cuz they didĀ
catch Tron, so the 27 caught him. Uh, yeah, it’s absolutely pouring here. And the liveĀ
tracker is completely out because there’s multiple groups out there. Uh you can see back here it’sĀ
saying the second group is still on the shams and there’s a third group chasing them of 97Ā
riders. I guess someone here in the front group uh a bar rain rider just getting throughĀ
the traffic furniture almost skims into the barriers trying to get off the frontĀ
I’m guessing. Yeah. Did you see they justĀ Ā jumped? They did just jump here. So, this isĀ
reality now, not what we were seeing before. I guess I don’t know if the weatherĀ
affects the transponders or not. Uh, yeah. Uncle Mattier Pogy in the lead. I was hopingĀ
he would go for the win. My lord, was my bike in need of love? Everything needs adjustments.Ā
Flats, derailer, upside down, and chain twisted. shaking my head, dude. Yeah, you got to do yourĀ
maintenance. Uh, rain is slowing down the whole show. Where’s Yonas? Yonas is in that group ofĀ
like 97 riders. Yeah, this would be terrifyingĀ Ā riding her riding here. I mean, it’s basically aĀ
skating rink right now. Uh, what’s really cool, too, is Bingum is with Pogy here. Bingham, likeĀ
I said earlier, uh, Bingy’s a rider that can hang on on the climbs. He’s not a climber, but he’sĀ
probably the best out of the climbing sprinters. Who’s in this group here that could give Bingham aĀ
chance? Well, Pogy could. I know he could. Uh, if we look at the yellow jersey group here, we knowĀ
that Vout has a really good sprint at the end. This Abraham guy here, Jonas, he’s got a reallyĀ
good sprint. Who else am I looking at here? Groves is a sprinter for uh Alison Dynic. Matty MahorĀ
could go from a long way out. And then we got Germ here. Arnold DeLise is here as well though too. SoĀ
he went from having a terrible yes day yesterday to being in the key break today to potentiallyĀ
uh get glory forever on the uh Shamzil. Catching up guys now. Catching up. I have no IĀ
have no idea how many people are watching rightĀ Ā now. It’s not refreshing for some reason. Uh, IĀ
keep seeing 497 and that’s just absolutely hunky dory with me. Uh, Michael Webster’s here saying,Ā
“Cool channel.” Michael, thanks for joining us. Uh, if you’re brand new here, which it seems like,Ā
uh, I’m also doing the tour to France fems and we will be able to use uh, Bike Terra tomorrow, IĀ
hope, to show the locations of all the riders. I’m going to try it again right now. ButĀ
when they’re going through these circuits,Ā Ā it’s made it very difficult to track everyone.Ā
And I can’t even see the second group. I probably could turn it on for a little bit here.Ā
See how it holds up just so you guys get a feel asĀ Ā to what they’re climbing. Uh the buildings areĀ
very close nearby, so it’s uh very difficult to follow them on the camera. If I zoom in a littleĀ
bit, see if I can make this work for you guys. Uh for those that okay let’s just do it rightĀ
now. For those that have never seen bike terror,Ā Ā this is what you’re going to be seeing tomorrow.Ā
I hope uh for when I do the women’s cycling tour to France fems. So this is them climbing theirĀ
way up uh the Marmark climb. This is bike terra a virtual cycling app which is suddenly becomeĀ
uh a virtual pro bike racing tracking app. So it’s going to only show the front group of 12. TheĀ
green jersey group uh is 400 meters behind. Let’s give it a shot. See if I jump back to them. We’llĀ
jump back to Jonathan Milan. Here’s his group. Uh kind of hard to tell where they are right nowĀ
because we’re wedged in all these buildings.Ā Ā Going to jump back to Well, let’s hang out withĀ
the man himself. You can see here Pogy is lit up in yellow. This group is bigger than that. GroupĀ
sizes were limited to 11. Over on the video feed, I can see Campon Arts leading the way up theĀ
top there. Poggy currently on the video feed. Uh it looks like he’s sitting about 10th or so.Ā
5% gradient here. You can see they’re climbingĀ Ā all the way. Uh maybe I can do this for you. YouĀ
can see the elevation gain. They’re going up here. Uh 4% grade. Ah, okay. So, I think we jumped backĀ
there. It did a little jump back there. Yeah. So, that’s some of the problems we’re going toĀ
have on these uh the lap circuit here. So,Ā Ā I’m going to jump out of that, guys. I don’t wantĀ
to make it look bad cuz it’s a fantastic platform. Going up the second ascent of the category 4 climbĀ
over here. I’m seeing Tatty on the front again. The guy is unstoppable right now. It seems likeĀ
he’s absolutely sick of the tour this year, but he sure wants to put on a show and go for a win. Uh,Ā
according to this, he will be probably first over the category 4 climb again. He’s over it over onĀ
the tracker. I’m just waiting to see it go down. Second ascent of the category 4 climb. SeeĀ
only one point available in uh turf France fems a category 4. They have a two point and aĀ
one point. I like that better. It makes these small climbs. They want to fight for them more.Ā
I think so. So it looks like Pogy is going to lead them over the second descent here unlessĀ
someone jumps out of this group. Vote stillĀ Ā hanging in there. There’s another Visor there.Ā
It’s probably camping arts. The pelaton I’m watching right now. Oh wow. That road there mightĀ
have been seven feet wide. There’s four riders on this front group. Uh they’re all showing asĀ
one. Five riders. So I missed one rider. Oh, it’s Matteo Trenton. We got Pogy, uh MatteoĀ
Jorgensson, Vout Van Arts. So it’s not Camparts, Matteo Trenton, and Davidid Ballerini. SoĀ
five riders off the front. They do have a bit of a break here. It’s the road is all overĀ
the place here. There’s curves everywhere. I can’t actually see uh the other 23 riders thatĀ
were in that group earlier. So yeah, uh Michael, thanks for being here. Uh tour to France femsĀ
continues tomorrow with stage three. So jump in that if you’re interested. Mr. DBassi, thanksĀ
for anyone that’s taking time to respond to my questions. I just generally don’t know a lot aboutĀ
the tradition of the sport and it’s all new to meĀ Ā and still learn. Dude, awesome for you to be here,Ā
dude. And feel free to ask any questions you want. Uh, Drew a Drew is talking to Mr. Pogy here.Ā
After you retire, would you like to be the UCI meteorologist with power to changeĀ
start times when late rain is predicted? Yeah, Uncle Matty, I tried to put bike hereĀ
on there. Uh, but it’s so curvy through theĀ Ā mountains and the transponders are bouncing aroundĀ
everywhere. So, they did tell me it may not work perfectly. I’ll give it one more shot here. MaybeĀ
we’ll jump to the Jonno big Jonno group here. I’m gonna jump to him now. Hang with him. Him him andĀ
Leapowitz and kind of give you an idea. But it’s we’re kind of wedged right in between all theseĀ
buildings, too. And it did take a big jump on me. And again, my point is to use it to showĀ
you how good it is. Uh okay. Uh I am showing it to you there. That one. So they’re descendingĀ
now minus 3% gradient. Poggy sitting on the lead in the video here. I’m in the second group rightĀ
now. So it’s a very technical descent. Oh, look upĀ Ā there. You can see a group ahead right now. I canĀ
see a group ahead right now. I’m not sure. Yeah, it’s not tracking everything perfectly throughĀ
here because of the the loops that they’re doing. So it’s actually showing the leading group beingĀ
behind them right now due to the looping nature. So, I will jump out of there. But guys, thisĀ
is what bike tier can do. Just ignore thatĀ Ā data there. Gives me the ability to zoom in on theĀ
riders. I can tell you who’s in the group up to 12 riders. Uh I find this to be more useful than theĀ
actual tour to France website. It at least gives me full names because sometimes I obviouslyĀ
I can’t remember everyone’s name. I have soĀ Ā many names in my head right now. They’re bombingĀ
downhill here. There’s 5% gradients. And again, look at these curves here. It’s soaking wet outĀ
there. Every one of these curves, uh, these guysĀ Ā could be crashing out of the race. Yeah. So, youĀ
saw some pop in there, too. That’s with the whole, uh, looping nature. But, I just wanted to show itĀ
to you. So, if you’re watching this for the first time, that’s what I’m also able to do on here.Ā
Uh, thank you to Bike Terra for that. And I know Matt right now for Ber. Here’s our location.Ā
That’s their second ascent guy. They’re going,Ā Ā guys, they’re going up it one more time. One moreĀ
time. Uh, group two here. This is the remnants uh of the breakaway and other riders that areĀ
jumping up there. We’ve got six in the front. There was 28. So, here’s the 22 leftover riders.Ā
I think they’re going to get absorbed by these two chasing groups. It’s happening right now. I thinkĀ
uh we’ll jump to here. It’s only a 15-second gap. Can Lead El Trek pull us all back for JonathanĀ
Milan to get a stage win at the end? Haven’t seen anything about crashes. Yeah, MattyĀ
Mahoric is up there. Rain spray everywhere, guys. Awesome stuff, guys. And again, I can’tĀ
believe I survived 21 days of this. And I can’t thank you all enough for being here and uhĀ
just completely exploding my channel for me. Uh, Biomemed Medlife watching fromĀ
Riot again, dude. Glad you’re back. Uh,Ā Ā Dawn here. Abramson went from 118 lbs to 158.Ā
20 kg. That’s right. That is 20 kg, isn’t it? David here. David Giser. Tatty is board when heĀ
has a GC winner. Won the last stage. Uh, Scotty go out. Vout is there. I’m watching him rightĀ
now. Red Bull helmet. He’s actually sitting on the front right now. So let’s take a look at thatĀ
front group here. Six riders, Matteo, Vout. So obviously Vizma’s like, we need to get a win now.Ā
We need we need something of a win now. So you got two Vizma riders here. Both super strong riders.Ā
Pogy Trenton, Mattie Mahoric, and Davided Berini. I think if it was me right now, my prediction willĀ
be about Venard. Bingham GMI has fallen out of the group. Uh the hills were just a little bit tooĀ
much for him. It’s not a huge lead though on the flats. Lead El Trek’s going to have to startĀ
like winding up the freight train and try toĀ Ā start bringing these guys back or else it’s over.Ā
They’re 52 seconds back right now. They basically got to get to the Shamsay here and just absolutelyĀ
destroy themselves to try to pull it back on the flat section. They’re not gonna Well, they gotĀ
to be right with Pogy if they want Jonathan. He’s got to get this hill one more time. Uh, whichĀ
is probably very unlikely. Bingham Germay should be doing the same thing, too. His Inter MarshaĀ
team needs to be at the front driving hard. If we look back at group two here, uh, there shouldĀ
be Bingum in here. Here’s Binyong Germay. Bingum’s issue here he has is that he doesn’t have anyĀ
teammates with him. So there’s no one there that’sĀ Ā really gonna work with him right now. So BingumĀ
is trying to do everything himself for Inter Mare as the lead sprinter for the team. The only guyĀ
that really has a chance of winning a stage forĀ Ā them. Uh he’s kind of left to his own devicesĀ
right now. Here’s our leaders. Six riders. I’m kind of shocked Pogy took all this risk today toĀ
be up front there. But that’s him. He’s a racer. Uh, okay guys, let me go. No, Pog is definitelyĀ
not getting uh dropped. Just going through the chat here, guys. Oh, yeah. Here’s the airĀ
trading support coming out. Love it. Uh, okay. I’m seeing new people here, guys. I’m tryingĀ
to read everything I can. Just getting back. Okay, let me get through this here now. Uh,Ā
Drew Ber was on this thread said their feedĀ Ā won’t work after the Paris. Yeah, it’sĀ
because of the loops, guys. If the tracks overlapping each other and I think the wholeĀ
transponder thing gets kind of out of whack, they warned me. Uh, Dawn here, YonasĀ
is second place by eight minutes. Yeah, Yonas doesn’t need to do anythingĀ
today. He just needs to finish the race. I’d like to make a more substantial fractionĀ
of $800,000 a year uh euros. Yeah, me too,Ā Ā dude. Me too. I’d love that. Uh Tom Bourne, I knowĀ
that they don’t used to attack on the final stage, dude. It’s changed this year. That addition ofĀ
that climb, they never would have done that. It would have just been the parade into townĀ
past the museum and they would have just doneĀ Ā this procession. I think it’s nine times downĀ
the shams. Then there’s a sprint victory at the end for the big sprinters. Caendish, GrielĀ
in the past, all those big names. Marcel Kit, uh, guys like Bingham, Jonathan Milan would beĀ
doing that. They still will have that, but they wanted to add something at the end to kind of likeĀ
give the writers something to fight for, but I’ve been told by Race Radio, I’ve read it, that theĀ
GC was counted at the fourth time past the uh the checkered flag there. So I think at this timeĀ
the GC is just set now it’s more for stage glory. Uh yeah would only even try to gain 104 onĀ
leaps or is it pretty much set for a one? Yeah,Ā Ā it’s already set now. Especially if they didĀ
set it at the fourth time through. Uh we’re like on the seventh time through right nowĀ
or something or the eighth time through. IĀ Ā see a rider here. Uh looks like a groupamaĀ
rider uh putting his arm up in the air. I wonder if he was a rider in that frontĀ
group. Six riders in the front group. They’re coming back down the Shamsly aid.Ā
They’ve already spun around the end there. How much time I got left here, guys? 14.3KĀ
going. One lap left. See Tatty’s in the video? He’s drifted right to the back of this group ofĀ
six. So, we got six riders out front. Chasing uh 30 seconds back is the group led by KevinĀ
Valon, Victor Camponarts. 47 seconds back to uh the white jersey group. Where is the greenĀ
jersey? Where is the green jersey? I don’t see him now. I would say that’s probably a trackingĀ
issue. Uh because I’m not seeing them. Yeah, the groups are all bust up again.Ā
They’re only showing two groups whenĀ Ā there’s probably four or five groups outĀ
there right now as we’re seeing here. So, I believe they’re heading up the Shams, all ofĀ
them. And the front six riders are heading back down it right now. I’m going to give thisĀ
a quick refresh here. They’re not moving. Let’s see what happens. Tatty is sitting in aboutĀ
fourth place right now according to the video. Uh, okay. Learn to just tell us the finalĀ
horse raid. No more commentary. I just wantĀ Ā I want to hear. Okay. Uh, we’ll see thatĀ
at the end. Crazy train of riders. Yeah, John here. Group two is stuck. Yeah. Well,Ā
I’m watching it right now. Group one’s moving.Ā Ā Group two is moving. Group three and four areĀ
sitting spot stuck there right now. Might have something to do with the rain transponders.Ā
Uh, we’ll see what happens there. Exactly. non-technical guess weather so many signalsĀ
small area glitches that’s what I’m thinking too okay moving on here guys trying to catch up stageĀ
21 is last stage ab lake abble’s back again dude if he was in that front group he was in theĀ
front group I don’t know exactly where he isĀ Ā right now because it’s not tracking it veryĀ
well right right very well right now at all uh had a chance he doesn’t I can I’m watchingĀ
him on screen right now in that second group. He doesn’t have one teammate with him. So, his teamĀ
just kind of didn’t really get it together today for Inter Mare. That was his really only way of uhĀ
doing it. Uh Jesus Alver’s here. Nobody broadcast on TV. Not anymore, dude. No one’s broadcastingĀ
on TV anymore. It’s all subscription based now. Yeah. Well, the cobas make it hard, but it’sĀ
a hill. Uh, Uncle Mandy, that hill at the end has just destroyed all the sprinters. And that wasĀ
their big concern. They’re like, “You’ve basicallyĀ Ā they were saying, you’ve ruined our final sprintĀ
on the Shamsi. It’s always a sprinter that wins on the Shamzil. Now they put that hill in thereĀ
three times. They they can’t do it. They get shed out the back.” Uh, looks like Chris ClansancyĀ
over in Japan, I think, is his name. I think he’s still here. Wow. What time is it, dude?Ā
What time is it in Japan? I can only imagine. Uh, someone’s saying, “Zoom in with theĀ
magnify.” I’m max zoomed in here now, guys. Max zoomed in on this map view, unlessĀ
you’re on a different one. Uh, David Rob’s doing a great job. Thank you, dude. Uh, we’veĀ
also got Rishi Tomar here. Awesome channel. Oh,Ā Ā that’s the end of the tour. I went ahead andĀ
sub, dude. Thank you so much. Uh, Rishi Tomar, join me tomorrow for the tour to France fam.Ā
It’s awesome racing. I’ve covered the firstĀ Ā two stages already. Find them on the channel.Ā
Watch them. Get up to speed. The women go out tomorrow morning bright and early. Uh theyĀ
race nine stages of the Tour to France fe. Uh Northman here. Hey, it’s great here.Ā
I like your commentary, dude. I’m gladĀ Ā you’re here. Uh who you who you voting forĀ
today? Who’s your guy? Who’s your guy there? Yeah, they’re they’re all cheering for Benny.Ā
Benny has a huge amount of supporters. Uh Benny would have had a chance. He was in the rightĀ
group. He was in the front group of 28 earlier.Ā Ā Uh got shed out the back. Group two is moving.Ā
Okay, I am seeing group three and four moving now. I think the data feed from the tour to FranceĀ
website itself is just very very slow and delayed right here. Okay, so groups two, three, and fourĀ
are down the road right now. group two. I think Bingan’s in this group here with 22 riders. HeĀ
Yeah, there he is. But notice he has no intermar riders with him. That’s what he needs. He needsĀ
his leadout train. Uh group one consisting of six riders with the first place overall rider uhĀ
going up the final ascent here. What do you guys think? Can he win the sprint finish? Who wouldĀ
put money on Tatty to win their sprint finish? Uh, Scatty here’s uh super fan of Van Art. I IĀ
would I would say Van Art for me. Someone said here you got to bet five bucks on it. I wouldĀ
say Van Art all the way. Robert saying is Pogy so petty he will win their ways to prevent VismoĀ
win today. He says I hope so after the break checkĀ Ā incident. I’m surprised we haven’t seen anyoneĀ
go down. Like I’m shocked. These roads are brutal and I’m shocked no one’s gone down. Uh IvartĀ
saying uh isn’t that from a song? What song? Uh Pogy is probably sick of talking nowĀ
and just wants to get out and ride. Yeah,Ā Ā I agree. They asked him yesterday,Ā
“How long till you get back on your bike?” That’s the kind of questions they askĀ
him. And he just looks at them, he’s like,Ā Ā “Probably Tuesday.” Like some of the questionsĀ
they ask, “How long until after you get home?” uh from riding. Do you think it’ll be till you getĀ
back on your bike? He might get on the bike laterĀ Ā that day. Who knows? He might take a week off,Ā
but it’s kind of like a dumb question. I think I’d be like, “How does it feel to like absolutelyĀ
dominate the world of cycling?” That’s what I’dĀ Ā ask him. Uh Uncle Matty, I do want to see aĀ
battle for positions from Oolie and Lipowitz. Yeah. Uh huge support in Africa here. EratraaĀ
for Bingham. Absolutely. Pogy sitting on the These guys look absolutely soaked to the boneĀ
right now. Like beyond drenched. Uh imagine when they’re done here today. It’s over. ThenĀ
they get to stand around on the podium for theĀ Ā next hour doing speeches. Uh they’re going toĀ
have to jump on the tour bus, have showers. I wonder if they do that before the ceremony. TheyĀ
probably have like half an hour. Julie’s here. Lighting laminate is a like a like laying in theĀ
plan for the GC. Attention to tools, measuring, prep, and planning. Uh, GC neutralized MattyĀ
only stage winner for the grab. That’s right. So, Robert caught on to that too. Right now, theĀ
overall general classification is decided. I know it’s weird. They’ve already passed toĀ
that point. This is just for stage win andĀ Ā UCI points. I guess that’s the key thing. AĀ
stage victory at the Tur of France will make your career for any of these riders.Ā
and UCI points are still available. Uh, Hine Zar Aling the cyclist, hello. It’sĀ
a pleasure to be part of such an outstanding dude. Thank you so much for for being here. YouĀ
guys are making the channel. All these comments,Ā Ā the inputs. I Yeah, I kind of wanted to beĀ
racing to the finish, but I think there was so much concern about the climb. It’s brand new.Ā
They’ve never done this, guys. They’re actuallyĀ Ā on the climb now. Uh there was huge concernsĀ
that Pogy would go down on the final climb, crash out of the Tur of France. Then the organizerĀ
would be blamed for trying to put more excitement into the very end of the race. Uh no, Pogy’sĀ
not getting dropped. He’s out in front. Dude, seriously, don’t pop believing here. I IĀ
live bet David Ballerini at 151 to win the stage. Down to 9 to1. Let’s get it. 37 to1. Oh,Ā
okay. So, you’ve got your bet locked in at 150 to1 and now it’s down to 9:1, but you’reĀ
it’s still locked in at the 150 to1. Wow, dude. I hope you get it. So, dude, I need yourĀ
betting tips. I need all your betting tips. So, David Ballerini here, uh, from Aana, uh,Ā
is the big bet for don’t pop believing. Uh, Biscuit Krueger. Who would likely to win outĀ
of out of these six or out of the tour? I’m going to say out of this group here, I think Venard. IĀ
think he’ll go long. He’ll do a long out sprint. Pogi is going to try to go with them and couldĀ
potentially beat him. We’ve seen Pogy beat MachuĀ Ā Vanderpool. Every day is different, guys. YouĀ
never know how these guys wake feeling up. It looks like Pogy’s on a heater today, folks.Ā
Uh, King Solomon here cheering for Benny. Uh, he missed the break. So, oh, Matteo JorgenssonĀ
just putting a little explosive kick up on the right hand side of the road. Quick three,Ā
four bike lengths. Uh, who’s going with him?Ā Ā It looks like Matteo Trenton. That looks likeĀ
Matteo Trenton to me. It is from Tudor. So, Matteo Jorgensson going now. Poggy’s pulledĀ
it back. Pogy wants the stage win, guys. Uh, Dawn, people in my country will start queuingĀ
up tomorrow outside bike shops to buy the Colago Y1 RS. I’d give it a new name. Call it like theĀ
the deadly python or something. Give it a cool name. Let’s do that. Yeah, Harry, wait. It’sĀ
confusing. Why is Jonathan Milan behind? Dude, they had to go up three. So, dude, uh this is forĀ
Harry here. Take a look at the map in the center of the screen. They’re working their way up theĀ
climb. There’s six riders that got away and areĀ Ā almost at the top of the climb. They’ve added thisĀ
new one to the Tour to France. This kind of like mix everything up. They’ve ascended this climbĀ
three times. This was used at the Olympic Road Race. It’s not exactly the same, but very closeĀ
uh to blow the Pelaton apart. They want to make the final stage of the Torter Front more moreĀ
exciting. They’ve taken away from the sprinters ability to win at the Shamsly, the pure sprinters.Ā
So, that’s the best I can explain that. Uh, yeah. So, it is confusing, dude. Uh, 8 kmĀ
remaining. Is that where we’re at? Wow, guys. 6.3 km is what I’m seeing here. I’mĀ
going to stick on this one for now. GetĀ Ā through the chat. Sportsman Sportsman Philly, goĀ
Healey. Phil Thomas saying, “Yeah, thanks Colin. Go Pogy. I’d be good with Matteo Jorgensson. Yeah,Ā
I would too. He I would I’m sure he would love it. Don Kong. Uh oh, Red Zinger race finished inĀ
Boulder. Oh, this is Drew talking to Don. I love the spoke shop. They had a gold m Oh, a MassieĀ
for 2500 bucks on the wall out of reach. Yeah, love it. Yeah. So, don’t pop saying thanks. I justĀ
need Oh, I’m seeing Vout Vanart attacking now, guys. Vout Van Art is going up over the top.Ā
That’s a little bit delayed. And he does haveĀ Ā an instant break on Pogy. Vout Vanart in theĀ
front, guys. True Cyclacross champion here. A strong man drops Pogy. Probably one of theĀ
very few people in the world that people in the world that can drop Pogy on this type ofĀ
climb. This type of climb is not a Pogy climb,Ā Ā guys. Obviously, Pogi is one of the world’s bestĀ
climbers. This is a classic type climb. This is a a Belgium type climb on the cobbles. And theseĀ
cobbles look like a paved highway for what uh Venar used to. I think Visma might just got theirĀ
winning move right there, guys. And if anyone, if I had to follow anyone’s wheel, back wheel downĀ
a technical descent on the cobbles in the wet, it would be Vanart. This is what he was born andĀ
bred doing right here, folks. Vout Vanart’s giving her folks. He is giving her. Let’s check the liveĀ
tracking now. Uh yeah, he does have a lead here. So Harry who’s asking the green jersey groupĀ
of 46 riders has just crested the climb. Yonas is back here. The GC has been neutralized at theĀ
end of the fourth passage through the Shamsil to avoid anything too crazy happening in this superĀ
sketchy hill climb and descent. They don’t want to eliminate a GC rider on the very last sectionĀ
of the race because basically stage 21 has always been just a stage for the sprinters. They’veĀ
added this in a new a whole new level to it.Ā Ā Right now van here he is teamma Vizma Lisa BikeĀ
really hasn’t done too much at this year’s race compared to the past. He’s got an 11second leadĀ
at 4 km. Can he hold off the world’s best rider? Tatty Matteo Jorgensson’s back there. Matteo willĀ
do nothing now. Matteo Jorgensson will probably just try to get in front of Pogy, Matty Mahoric,Ā
and Davidid Ballerini and slow them down. Uh, the best rider here in the wet is Vout Venard 100%.Ā
I love it. Uh, Hine, there looks like there’s 13 seconds between Vanart and Pogy. Vanart is justĀ
descending like a demon here. Um, and I knew I to me I’m like that’s the guy I would put my moneyĀ
on at the end. Vanart for the descents for those cobbles for being brave in the wet. So it’s aĀ
13-second gap now back to Pogy. I’m going to put the dot map on. Uh, if I had bike terror showingĀ
uh working right now, guys, it would be fantastic. Looks like Pog is actually riding a littleĀ
bit solo being chased by Balleria and Matteo.Ā Ā That’s cuz Matteo doesn’t want to work right now.Ā
Matteo will do nothing to jeopardize Vout’s lead. At least that’s what a good team member wouldĀ
do. So, here’s four of them. They’re actually lumping all their times together. They might haveĀ
got back on the back end. Come on, Vout. Yeah, breakaway time, guys. You know, as soon as I seeĀ
the breakaway, I’m totally biased. I am all in on this dude now. Um, I love this. Someone said,Ā
“I bet $5 million on Pogy to win.” Dude, you probably to bet $5 million on Pogy to win, you’dĀ
probably win $5 million and1 back. Uh, he’s such a favorite to win. But I love it. That’s Jeff sayingĀ
that. Uh, Viva Benny Eratrayer from Solomon here. Okay. Yeah, Scaddyier. Uh, I got to say,Ā
Scatty here was asking the whole time,Ā Ā “Do you think Val can win? Where’s Vout? Where’sĀ
V?” He kept asking it over and over and over. Dude, you got it. Vanard is fighting. He’s leadingĀ
now. Super exciting, dude. What a finish here. We wouldn’t have seen this if we would have finishedĀ
the normal way. Uh, and even for Vout Vanart,Ā Ā you know, technical master on a bike. He’sĀ
going around these corners very gingerly. There’s puddles everywhere. So, now you can kindĀ
of see why they neutralized it for the GC. Benard breakaway. Yep. Adriana Faras is here. OMG. Well,Ā
it was 5 km of out and Pogy. Now it’s just uh the Van Archo. Poggy’s back with the three riders thatĀ
are chasing him and Matteo is just going to be hitting the brakes the whole time. Yeah. Don’t popĀ
even shaking his head. It was fun when it lasted, dude. Yeah, dude. I’m sorry. I would have loveĀ
for you to win again. Uh I’m going to cheer forĀ Ā Valvanard though because he hasn’t really doneĀ
a lot this tour. when Yonas won in 2023 and 2022 uh vote was a key part of those wins. He’s hadĀ
some great days. He’s had some very poor days. So, he’s had he’s had days where he’s lookedĀ
really good and then faded really bad. So,Ā Ā maybe he’s back on par. Yeah, Jay Taylor. That’sĀ
Vanardo front. Yeah, CB uh Vout wants us back. He needs to get something this tour uh to get a winĀ
for Vizma final stage. Uh, we got friends Agular here. What uh what position is Tim in earns?Ā
He’ll be way back in the Pelaton somewhere,Ā Ā dude. The hitters are up front right now. JeffĀ
saying Pogy’s coming back. I don’t think anyone’s catching now. It’s a 22 second gap here. Let’s seeĀ
if we’re actually if that’s what it is. 22 second gap. Pogy’s going off the back now, guys. Poggy’sĀ
sitting up. He doesn’t need to race anymore. I I’m surprised his team even let him do this.Ā
So here’s group one, Venard. Group two, three riders. Matteo Jorgensson, Matty Mahor, DavididĀ
Ballerini, Pogy has pulled the shoot and he’s out the back now. He doesn’t need to contest thisĀ
guy’s. It’s like I’m I’m absolutely shocked they would let him do this. It looks like Van VenardĀ
is going to get the win here, guys. Stage victory,Ā Ā stage glory. I’m trying to see. He’s ridingĀ
completely solo. Yeah, I can’t even see the bubble behind him. One last turn here. He’s nowĀ
on the Shamsly run in itself. He can see it in the distance. What a win for Vo Vanart. EpicĀ
effort. That’s what it takes to to win these stages. The bike handling skills is what savedĀ
him. Uh, Uncle Maddie Yonas saving himself for laminate flooring. He’s got a lot of rentals toĀ
do at home when he gets back. Biomemed Light 800Ā Ā meters for Vout. Yeah, he’s he’s going to crossĀ
the finish line right away, guys. So, you know, they don’t win the tour. They get a second placeĀ
finish. They get a stage victory here by Vout,Ā Ā who I really like. That’s right. Wait, Pogy won’tĀ
give Chase. Not in those conditions. Um, dude, uh, where is it? Don’t pop him. Could youĀ
imagine if David Ballerini gets second? Dude, you probably hate me right now. Yeah, V got it.Ā
Votes crossing the finish line, guys. Arms in the air. Probably rolling across at 10 to 12 kmĀ
an hour. He just won the final stage of the 2025 Tour to France. Awesome. That’s a big win. That’sĀ
his tour right there. He just made his tour. Uh, look at this. Who’s this here? Bam. GoesĀ
Timothy, but under 500 meter at the time.Ā Ā Won’t matter if he crashes. No. Dude, you’re notĀ
going to believe this. Don’t pop believing David Ballerini got second. Pogy’s coming across theĀ
line just behind them now. There’s his fourth tour to France stage. Dude, don’t pop believeĀ
in you. Almost won. What? Another six grand. Matteo Jorgensson comes across in fifth. Yeah,Ā
fantastic vote. I love that win. Unfortunately, don’t pop. Believe in just lost 6 G’s there.Ā
Well, he didn’t lose. Uh, he almost won six G’s. Uncle Maddie, my final record is seven out ofĀ
21. I picked Vout today. Yeah, good pick. That’sĀ Ā a smart pick. You know you’re cycling, dude.Ā
That’s who I would have picked two with those cobbles in the wet. Good for V. That worked fineĀ
from Robert here. Jamie, congrats everyone. Uh, Vout won stage 21 of the tour to France.Ā
Pogy is the 2025 Tour to France winner. Pogy. Yeah, Pogy can stop on the side ofĀ
the road, have, you know, a light lunch and still be the winner of the Tour to France.Ā
His win’s that big. His lead is that big. Yeah, votes cross the finish line, Scotty. Vote oneĀ
stage 21 through def France. Yep, Julia’s here. You go ahead and crown Pogy, but vote cross theĀ
finish line first. Victor Campernart’s coming in next. This makes Pogy a true yellow winner afterĀ
the stage. Yeah, he’s got it. Congrats everyone. V won the stage. Pogy won the tour. Wow, guys. IĀ
can’t believe uh it’s not over for everyone yet. Actually, they’re not even showing the bubblesĀ
up there. He’s stage 25. Stage 21 winner. Here’sĀ Ā David Valerin that don’t pop believe and had someĀ
cash. Hold on. Matty Mahor gets third. Let’s watch him finish here. Uh I’ll try to show it to you.Ā
Here’s him coming in. He basically just cruise to the finish line here. Takes one last look back.Ā
Straightens the jersey. Arms will be up in the air soon. I just won the final stage on the shams ofĀ
his banging on the handlebars. Yes, dude. I love that. That is so good. Uh you can see here. So,Ā
David Ballerin was 19 seconds back. Best of the second group. Tatty did sit up. He doesn’t need toĀ
win the stage again. I’m I’m shocked UAE would let him go that hard on the stage. I think the liveĀ
tracking is probably off now. Oh, no, it’s not. It’s still coming down the hill. I’ll hang outĀ
here for a little bit and look at this stuff withĀ Ā you guys. 46 riders back here apparently stillĀ
coming in. Actually, there’s two groups. Here’s the Jonathan Milan group and Lipoitz group. And weĀ
got the second group back here. Uh now it’s saying 86 riders. Yonas is way back here. His secondĀ
place at the tour to France is is secured. Uh okay, Pogy comes fourth. That’s right. Congrats toĀ
all the race winners, especially the alien Pogy. He’s probably like, “I can’t wait to get back toĀ
Monaco now. Take half a day off.” He did say thatĀ Ā yesterday. Well, I’ll travel home on Monday andĀ
I’ll I might be back out on the bike on Tuesday. I think he still loves his bike. He still wants toĀ
bike race. He just doesn’t like the grind of theĀ Ā three-week event. You might win the battle, but IĀ
won the war, Pogy. Exactly. Yeah. Big thanks. Uh, thanks very much, Colin. Uh, yeah, dude, UncleĀ
Maddie, you dude, you’ve been an awesome part ofĀ Ā this. Uh, if you guys get time, if you have a ifĀ
you’re available, jump into the the women’s tour, tour to France, fems. I’m doing that. I’ve alreadyĀ
started it. It’ll be running from tomorrow, which is Monday, all through next Sunday. They’veĀ
got some awesome climbing coming at the end. Uh, I think they take on the call to Lataline, whichĀ
is like 19 kilometers long at 7% or something like that. So, that’ll be great. Uh, great workĀ
calling here from Robert. Scotty was saying, uh, $500. So, Scotty, did you bet on Van Art?Ā
Scotty here saying $500 turns to 6,500. Thank you. Vote. Early Christmas for Scotty. Colec Kane,Ā
dude. Thank you so much again. Coohl’s a huge supporter of the channel. What a contribution,Ā
dude. I can’t thank you enough for that rightĀ Ā now. I cannot thank you enough. Inside CyclingĀ
World loves Colec Kane, dude. Thanks so much uh guys. I’m going to continue doing this. WeĀ
got the Fam still. There’s other races comingĀ Ā up in August. The Valta, which might be myĀ
favorite tour, uh is at the end of August. Uh Drew Schaefer here saying, “What is yourĀ
favorite Canadian beer, Colin? If internationally available, I’ll go get some.” My favorite CanadianĀ
beer. I don’t know if I have a favorite Canadian beer. Actually, what me and Joey Jojo like, weĀ
like uh Steagall Rattler, and I love any type of cider. That’s kind of my thing. Like, you know,Ā
Strongbo is a little bit too dry for me. I likeĀ Ā a sweeter cider. Remember I told you I like aĀ
good triple triple coffee. Uh so, I do like a sweet cider. I But beer, yeah, I drink anything.Ā
Uh wow. Yeah, Uncle Matty again. Cole Kane, thank you so much for supporting the channel soĀ
well. Uh Chris McConny’s back. Great coverage, Colin. Congrats on the growth of yourĀ
channel. Keep it going, dude. I’m gonnaĀ Ā I’m gonna Thanks to all you guys for helpingĀ
me do this. Benny got 13th on the stage. Okay, Michael, thanks for that. I didn’t even see it.Ā
Wow, dude. He dropped it in at the last second, man. He dropped it in at the last Okay, guys.Ā
This guy here, uh, running wild. Do not leave. Great job. Enjoyed your commentary, G. Swinging,Ā
guys. This is Greg Swingley right here. Uh, Greg, I I don’t know if you’re the older brother or theĀ
younger brother. His brother Doug Swingley won theĀ Ā Ididarod. Did he win? Did he win three or fourĀ
times? I can’t even remember now. He was kind of like the new guy that came along. I’m pretty sureĀ
Greg was involved in dog mushing first and then Doug Swingley kind of got involved in it and wentĀ
up and just dominated the IDA rod. He was like the new guy on the block from Montana. Oh, I got toĀ
think of the lake that they live nearby. But yeah, so that’s why Running Wild asked when I saw yourĀ
name earlier. Uh, I’m like, when you asked if I knew uh Rob Cars, I kind of was guessing youĀ
were a Swingly. Uh, dude, in the mushing world, these guys are kind of legendary. Uh, and thenĀ
Doug Doug kind of came, won everything, and then packed it in. So, yeah. And Doug Swingley wouldĀ
always stop off at Rob’s house, kind of like a pit stop on the way down to and from Alaska. It’sĀ
probably like an 8 hour drive from their location to Cochran, Alberta. Rob had a property there,Ā
dog friendly. Let the dogs out, do their thing, and then they would keep trucking. So, GregĀ
Swingley, awesome to see you here, man. Love it. Uh, okay. JT Lum Lem continues. Yep, that’sĀ
tomorrow, guys. We’ll be doing that again. Shorter stages, easier days for me. I got to get back onĀ
the bike. Me and Ruben, who’s been here a lot, uh,Ā Ā we’re starting to do the, uh, Legends of the TourĀ
climbing challenge over on Ruby. We’ll be doing that. Uncle Matt, he’s got to head out, dude.Ā
Thanks for being here so much. CB Pa for Pogy. Yeah, he does have the polka dot jersey as well.Ā
He does. Uh, okay, dude. Here, uh, thanks, mate. Got to sleep, dude. Thanks for joining in here.Ā

Okay, dude. We can get some Zift rides going. Ruben Hose. Uh, probably going to end it here withĀ
Reuben. I know, dude. Good job, Colin. Thanks for the three weeks. Reuben, you might have heardĀ
me actually saying there that we’re doing the,Ā Ā uh, the uh, Legends of the Tour challenge.Ā
Dude, I don’t even know how I’m gonna get through that. I honestly don’t know how I’m gonnaĀ
get through that. Uh, that’s going to be insane.Ā Ā So glad uh V won for Belgium here. Wow, what aĀ
three weeks, guys. 21 stages, two rest days. Uh a lot of background work from Joey Jojo to keepĀ
me going and uh letting me get up at crazy times. Friday and Saturday nights, Joey Jojo wantsĀ
to go out. I’m going to bed at 7:00 p.m. So, lot of sacrifices here, but it’s been so muchĀ
fun. Uh, Ruben, I’ll see you soon. Hinesar along the cyclist. Good night. See you later,Ā
dude. Thanks for joining us. Michael Ho saying,Ā Ā “Cheers.” Yeah, I know, Ruben. I can’t backĀ

of people said that. Uh, you’re here now. Let’sĀ Ā get you into the fe if you’re interested. It’sĀ
really good racing. Uh, I’m super pumped to be learning on the fly. I’m not an expert at women’sĀ
racing. Uh, but I’m learning and there’s some good people there helping me out. Okay guys, that’s it.Ā

Wout still the best Belgian rider…So glad he won. All the naysayers take a hike(go back to Remco)
stage 21 made my day tour started in Lille and ended in Paris (Champs-ĆlysĆ©es) WOUT was the first to cross that line that's all I'm saying
Where is this happening at ? š®
