@HansenAdam Rider welfare is literally your job. Do your job.

Another race and another wrong turn. Today, there was a green sign telling the moto (that was again too close to the riders) to turn off the road. Last time in Algarve, there was a red sign and a yellow sign. (Confusing for someone trying following the Marshall's instructions) How about we have: No motos close to the bunch. Standardised of signs. Or even better, no vehicles in the final km... It's really upsetting for a rider turning up, racing a full day, and right in the very end. This happens. Riders crashed because of this, and a few were put onto a road with cars coming in the opposite direction... A little double checking could avoid this.

It's rare to see SD Worx get it so wrong. Letting Lorena role past Demi cost them here. Shout out to Trek for doing a heap of work for Canyon in the final stage. #TDFF2024

Why is it that entire stages of all the men’s races, along with MSR (where we really only need the final ~30km 😅) are broadcast every year, but the coverage for today’s stage 7 at TdFFaZ only starts when they’ll be over halfway through 🤦🏼‍♀️ #womenscycling

You won't remember: • How many hours you've worked. • What you were working on. • Why it was important. You'll never forget: • Riding a HOSKING.

If you had this course during the Ballarat era @chloe_hosking would have 5-10 National Championships. Super exciting to see something new.

When does the women's ITT start?

@MatMitchell30 True. Bastianelli also was a previous world champion. With a few dozen professional wins. Which sets her apart from the Aussies Neve might be competing with at pressntt. I think Kirsten was also a Track World Champion by 30.

@Tweet_OG_Jack Bastianelli did but she got kinda moved aside as the main leader for the young hope in Balsamo Wild I don't think had a champs late on to really consider - 2019 Euros I thought would be one because it was dead flat and looks like she did that (6th) but Worlds etc. were too much

@MatMitchell30 Yeah both great sprinters. Into their twilight. They kept performing at a professional level although I don't think either the Netherlands or Italy selected them for major games after 32?

@Tweet_OG_Jack Kirsten Wild and Bastianelli I guess but Wiebes has kinda made it difficult for others - and depends on the course! Sarah Gigante would be the other one to think of going into that on a hillier course, potentially on a shorter effort than what we've seen from Neve

@lukascph You've somehow seen the LA and Brisbane courses?

@Tweet_OG_Jack RRG was 4th in Plouay, that's just one spot off the podium. And the Olympics isn't just about the top-3. Even if it were, Bradbury isn't a rider I see winning an Olympic RR medal in LA or Brisbane. Far too flat for her.

Is it too early to say Neve should have been selected for the Australian team? #GirodItaliaWomen #TDF2024

@lukascph This also isn't true

@Tweet_OG_Jack Neve is arguably the best pure climber in woman's cycling right now. But she is a pure climber.

@lukascph That's a statement that is very hard to support with data. I just disagree. Top 20s isn't relevant. If it isn't a top 3 it doesn't matter at the Olympics. If you're not there to podium now, you should be looking to the future.

@Tweet_OG_Jack Lauretta Hanson is one of the best domestiques in the world. Her role is not to get results for herself, but to help her teammates get results. RRG has dozens of top-20s from one-day races, incl. a 4th place in Plouay which is similar in difficulty to the Paris route.

@writebikerepeat It's an easy decision to follow the women

It is completely unacceptable to have the women's peloton going up Blockhaus and the men's going up the Tourmalet in two separate Grand Tours ON THE SAME DAY it's simply not OK 😭 #TDF2024 #GiroDItalia

Neve is the most exciting Australian talent right now. She has shown the most potential. She has the best results. With the exception of Grace.

The most interesting thing Gerro has said all Tour and he walked it back. Insight into Directors. @simongerrans #TdF2024

@MatMitchell30 Been Australian all my life and couldn't tell you what StayLive is. I'll dial in the VPN

@Tweet_OG_Jack It's on StayLive on Aus if you're signed up to that - otherwise VPN to RAI in Italy for the free-to-air option

Do we have a stream? #GirodItaliaWomen

Surprised ASO hasn't cut the tiemgrial from the TDF. All it's done is prevent French riders from contending at The Tour #TDF2024

Excited to be shipping this whip to Quebec. HOSKING. Ultra light weight, high-performance, alloy frames. #tdf2024 #cycling #women

@MatMitchell30 Hopefully wasn't down to an early celebration 😬

The torch is passed in 🇱🇺! Christine Majerus will be out of her permanent national champs jersey for the final months of her career with Marie Schreiber ready to start a potentially long battle with Nina Berton over the next few years
