NL comms on HBO acted like Vollering was gone, never to be brought back, with a lead that never exceeded 20 seconds... Now surprised she's brought back, after multiple riders took turns chasing her...

Right, new TDFF day, new drama! It's Nice, so it's assured. Thinking back to the Transvésubienne MTB race finish that made you ride trough a riverbed that at some point entered a 2,5 km long tunnel that spit you out into the Meditteranean. After 9 hrs of racing, that was a painful and wet affair.

Is it me or does the ASO/UCI care even less about safe roads in the final for the #TDFF?

Made the mistake to go and view Lance & buddies talk about the MvdP win and got "Tadej is going to win this and continue on, because he knows what the record is" within miliseconds. <...clicks on YouTube home>

Went for a ride assuming nothing could top the womens' Strade. Assumption turned out to be the mother of 1,5 well spent hours.

Dutch comms talking like this race has a flat sprint at the end...

Hulst cyclocross worlds organisation trying its best to convince the world the Dutch have a really poor taste of music. (Some of us don't ...)

I hate to see Pieterse (or anyone) crash, but GO NEFF!

Thibeau, take note: Avoid the finish line barriers on every one of your many looks over your shoulder!

Everybody behaves like this is true for them, but for me it's certain: Everything revolves around me.

I don’t care where she ends up, but this first lap is absolute perfection from Jolanda Neff.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 14/12/2025

Pretty excited for the Namur CX race. I'm very curious if Puck and MvdP will be competitive or if lack of CX specific practice will hold them back. It would be rare for MvdP to return and not dominate though... Also: A surprise Neff return to world beating form would be great.

Failed at Whammageddon today. Had to choose between getting coffee or avoiding the living room / kitchen combination my girlfriend was watching a christmas movie in.

Flamanville is such a fun CX course. Imho it's only beaten by a few mostly Belgian classic courses.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 31/10/2025

I watched a trailer for a movie called 'Fackham Hall'. Does Puck Pieterse have a new career? 😅

It's 2025 and the women road cycling EC broadcast hasn't got timegaps and km's to go on the screen.

Cian Wisselbroek Cian Uijtdebroeks once again moved to a different team before finishing his contract. It will generate all kinds of speculative clickbait articles. #procycling #cyclingcartoon #transfer #visma #bora #contract #belgian #trousers @teamvismaleaseabike.com @movistarteam.com

This is a drawn cartoon about procycling with spectator Dr. Freakinstyle who witnesses and comments on procycling races. This particular cartoon is about the transfer of Cian Uijtdebroeks from Visma to Movistar
In the drawing we see on de left Cian Uijtdebroeks in Movistar clothes moving fast. In the right we see a bike and clothes of Visma and Bora, still in the position of how someone would ware them as if he just raced away from it. All the way on the right we see Dr. Freakinstyle scratching his head and saying; ‘That’s this winter’s clickbait items sorted…’
On the top left we see some notes explaining the title of the cartoon.

Stop attacking and start working together for at least 50k, or race for 2nd at best.

If the Dutch win this Ten Dam should be knighted for finally learning them to poker. Not too optimistic though.

I really like the sports side of these world championships! Great racing so far.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

Will this be a WC where a support rider takes the win? I could see a group with f.e. Squiban, Kastelijn, Persico and Ruëgg go up the road, with a strong lone rider like Vas with them.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 12/09/2025

The Dan Bigham interview on the Just Ride by Red Bull YT channel is really entertaining ánd informative imho! I love this DH MTB - road crossover and the respect and enthusiasm seemed truly mutual.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 07/09/2025

Fynn Brand sat in the hotseat of DH MTB worlds for a while. That's a long time ago mostly flat The Netherlands had a downhiller eliglible to compete in worlds!

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

OK, 11 is in front and 1 and 111 are chasing. That's a lot of 1's. As much as the entire row of 1's on the back of Pidcock's jersey. #lavuelta

To the entire cycling internet: I hate to say I told you so #PFP

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 31/07/2025

PFP and the art of hiding yourself in a stage that wouldn’t give big differences? Risky business with the descends imho.

#TDF2025 Amazed at the contrast between Jens Voigt motorbike commentary and Romain Bardet. The latter actually tells me lots I don't see watching along on TV. 👍

Can't help to have a drop in interest in the Tour de France. <cope mode> Sure, the fight for 3rd will be nice and hopefully we'll get some nice breakaway fights that go to the finish. And please let's have an MvdP / Wout duo escape from Montmartre to the final stage finish.

Just started the TdF livestream after a ride. What the hell happened? 😅

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 07/07/2025

Ugliest Tour de France stage I’ve seen for a while. Some of the mayhem was rider related, but those last 5 km were very badly chosen imho.

I just turned on the Tour de France stage a little late and what I see doesn't make sense at all 😂

@biekepurnelle.bsky.social Heeft de Vlaamse media Wout van Aert gisteren nu helemaal met rust gelaten, of mis ik iets? 😅 Wel atypisch dat hij er niet bij zat in zo'n rit. Wellicht gespaard voor morgen?

Missed opportunity for Jasper Phillipsen when asked for any pre-start rituals. "Take a dump" would have been pretty funny.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 18/05/2025

And there's the commentator kneejerk.. "Does this belong in a grand tour?" HECK YES!! Most with misfortune brought themselves that by themselves and poor team support. With GT's becoming increasingly dull after the GC has set, we need deciding parcours like this.

No surprise Arensman is in the front. Also ex-cyclocross.

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 07/05/2025

I only just had the chance to watch today's Vuelta Fem stage. What a tactics masterclass from VdB. Raced on instinct, but I'm pretty sure she knew she would probably summon group #2 syndrome.

Chug Pieterse. Honestly, I hoped she would do a '19 MvdP run in to the line, but she didn't. Wasn't lack of trying though.

Tactics is for chasers. What a race...

Jeroen Kooij @jeroenk.bsky.social · 22/03/2025

Wow, the overhead shot shows the gap both Ganna and especially Pogi let go to Mathieu. How did you expect to close that...? How can you underestimate Mathieu's race instinct like that?
