Thank you very much for mentioning me. It’s truly a pleasure for me to share my experiences, which can encourage people who are just starting to ride bikes and often let themselves get discouraged—and many times it’s because they give up mentally. so my invitation is to enjoy the sport and keep pursuing it with passion. I also liked the comment about the cyclist who fell but kept going with the help of others—that’s what life is all about for me: being able to help others. As for Norway, I’d love to see them win this World Cup, since they’re a team that brings joy to the tournament, just as Colombia did—it’s a tough one :(
The pleasure is ours, @cristianm. Sorry for replying so late — here in Cuba we had a two‑day blackout. Haha… I really enjoy cheering everyone up here in the community as well. It’s very lovely.
Norway seems to have taken quite a beating from England. 😬
I haven't been cycling a lot these days, but I do want to reply to the cycling chit chat topic since I'm a big Tour de France fan.
I really enjoyed the victory of Mathieu van der Poel yesterday. Great to see attackers stay ahead of the peloton this time! A well deserved victory.
One of the moments I will remember, but not the most memorable one.
Which moment do you remember that truly moved you or left a mark on you as a cycling fan?
I've been watching the tour for many, many years. My dad used to watch it a lot too, so I grew up with it. So I have memories that go way back to the time of Michael Indurain.
One of the most memorizable rides in Tour de France that I can remember was the 2020 time trial to La Planche des Belles Filles.
Primož Roglič had the yellow jearsey and was about to win the Tour. He had a lead of 1:56 over Tadej Pogačar before the final mountain time trial, two days before the end of the tour. But Pogačar delivered an unbelievable performance. Pogačar gained time meter by meter and in the end he won the stage with more than two minutes and took the yellow jersey. I was really feeling sorry for Roglič and his team as he was fighting for his tour victory, but just couldn't hold on to it. Sports can be really hard sometimes.
This was one of the one of the greatest comebacks in the history of the Tour de France.
And Pogačar became the youngest rider ever to win the Tour de France.
Thank you so much for joining the initiative, @friendlymoose. Watching those elite cyclists at times gives me the feeling that human limits simply vanish, and it makes me wonder how much within us is still left undiscovered.
