@kenny_labbe @LarryDJonesJr Exactly @kenny_labbe. "Come home when the street lights come on" was my only instruction.
English
@LarryDJonesJr I would have no idea if the door was locked. Would have never even tried it after being sent out for the day.
English
Did parents in the 80’s really lock their kids outside all day or is that a myth?

So for years we've been watching #StarWars where people get cut in half, stabbed in the gut by lightsabers and still survive. Meanwhile "Trinity" meets her maker after getting poked by a teeny-tiny throwing knife? Also, I fell asleep during the first episode of #theacolyte
English
Thinking about swear words on @gcntweet, & post-rider interviews, @mcewenrobbie, @SportsOrla, I wonder if it's a lost in translation thing. EG, in Germany the word "scheisse" is used the way Americans use "damn." More of a mild swear that's more acceptable in polite conversation.

@mapko1991 @ijoshuajohnson @JasonCammisa Agree, came to the comments section to see if someone makes this point. Jason will take his Hagerty paycheck as long as he possibly can.
English
@ijoshuajohnson @JasonCammisa Money is the number 1 reason why he and others can't leave companies like Hagerty these types of videos cost so much to make but in return don't make a profit it's a loss leader for Hagerty

Also, @mcewenrobbie @AdamBlythe89, why do I get a little embarrassed every time someone describes a rain jacket as "geeeelay." #Giro

Watching today's stage of the @giroditalia; groups all over road, do directors have a more reliable way to find out who's up the road than fleeting camera shots of riders with numbers covered up by jackets? @gcntweet @mcewenrobbie @AdamBlythe89 @daniellloyd1 @SportsOrla

Checking out Silo on @AppleTV thanks to a @VanityFair article by @moryan. Starts strong, but it's like they got different writers for episodes 4 and 5? I also think Common is out of his depth--and there's A LOT of Common in the show. Compelling plot keeps me going.

HEY, @WNYC whoever is typing in the background of your special coverage? STOP IT. #SuperTuesday

@DrankyDranks Yeah...2hrs is a lot of time on a trainer. A lot of high quality work can be done in 60-75 minutes. E.g. 10 min warm up 40 minutes of efforts (including recovery periods in between intervals), 10 min cool down.
English
I have made 2 amendments:
I will get set up tonight, but will ride prolly tomorrow.
I’m starting with 1 hour and seeing what I can manage.
Negroni Tenderoni@DrankyDranks
I’m bout to get on Zwift for the first time today. I haven’t ridden the bike once since we had the baby. Hoping to be able to get a consistent 2 hours a night on this thing. Y’all wish me luck.

@chriscampearl @Chicago_History This tweet literally made me go to the refrigerator to eat a leftover slice of thin crust. It's so good I don't even have to heat it up. PS In related thoughts, real Chicago people don't care what you put on your hot dog.
English
@Chicago_History Bunch of haters here. Giordano's thin crust is the very best in the city. And their deep dish is as good as anyone's. Why publicly post against a chicago classic? Lots of amazing neighborhood mom and pop places in this city. But don't rag on the old timers

@benatkins_uk @SportsOrla So, one less TV camera...so the viewers are being punished? This is such a weird reaction to the situation.
English
@SportsOrla Presumably they've been thrown off the race for not being close enough, thus denying us a Ventoux-2016-style race to see which of them could reach the Joux Plane quickest on foot.
English
The two motorbikes at the top of Joux Plane have been taken off the race for tomorrow, at least. One TV world feed and one a photographer’s moto.
English
@writebikerepeat I was pleased to see him shredding at the front, it feels like most of this tour, he's been sitting back waiting, and just about as it's "his turn" to do some damage, Pogacar attacks hard and Vingegaard follows and that's it.
English
The best thing about the whole stage though? GC KUSS IS BACK 🤩🙌💪 #TDF2023
English
OMG, I know the big climb is coming because professional bike racers are throwing away gel wrappers from their pockets on the beautiful roads of the Alps. C'mon guys, losing a bottle that is a souvenir for a fan is one thing...but gel wrappers? #Disappointed #TourDeFrance2023
English
@SpeedSportLife @AntonyWrites Cost cutting/savings in auto industry is fascinating...$52k cars like the Integra Type S, that don't come with rear vents or ventilated seats (available on $25k Hyundais), or Civics that get "Integra" features in Canada but not USA...
English
@AntonyWrites Same. We already have “basic” cars here. They don’t sell well until you get to the Toyota Corolla which is very nicely equipped and priced very moderately. There’s no appetite for bare bones cars in the US.
English
@cyclingreporter I'm waiting for Kuss to unleash some pain...so far, his job mostly seems to be chill'n in the front group, sitting behind his leader.
English
all told, mostly a nothing burger GC day, but hoping for real fighting tomorrow and next day #TDF2023
