@thijszonneveld.bsky.social Net deel 4 van de podcast geluisterd. Van mijn stoel gedonderd en net weer gaan zitten. What The F Dank voor het doorzetten en publiceren.

I’m getting Vuvuzela vibes from the Slovenian crowds. It’s making me want to switch off the coverage and go do something else. #EuroRoad2026 #Slovenia2026

Kom Wout! We gaan Buiten Spelen!

WTF Ganna? #Montreal26

Always a bit sad to see guys running in the TT Worlds without an actual TT frameset. #montreal26

@dopedevices.bsky.social I used to commute to work 34km away. Started going by bike because that was faster 8 times out of 10 B/c of traffic. The distance isn’t the problem. I still regularly think back on early morning rides into work wishing I still worked there (company got sold, location closed)

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social Hi Thijs, wat ik me afvroeg: Accell heeft vandaag surseance aangevraagd. Als dat een faillissement gaat worden, heeft Picnic PostNL dan acuut een probleem? Kan me voorstellen dat een curator de fietsen terug wil.

Oh how I hate cycling "fans" right now. #TdF26

So they put barriers up in Turn 7 but not in the other ones. #TdF26

Armirail descending, wow And bloody scary.

Far too many spectators on that mountain #TdF26

What kind of sensor does Tadej have under his shirt? Last time the statement was a Whoop-type device but there is no strap to see there. It seriously looks like a glucose monitor. #TdF26

Twenty One Pilots on Pinkpop! Love it that our public broadcaster still keeps putting it on TV every year.

If Toyota lose this then they are 100% to blame for not letting the De Vreis pass Hartley #LeMans24Hours #LeMans

Sporza is geo-blocked, Eurosport 1 is only broadcasting tennis. Would be cool to be able to watch the #girodonne but apparently that's not happening this year. 😕

In other news: the IOM TT livestream has started! Which means we get racing today 🥳

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social beterschap Gents. Hopelijk binnenkort weer op de been. 💪

Yep

Oh Lotte, zero ownership for the deviation (interview on Sporza just now). Silly excuse yesterday on the shifting, now this. She didn’t get the penalty for nothing. #lavueltafeminina

@josiahmortimer.bsky.social the energy density of the panels is not nearly enough to make this a viable option. Not even the Lightyear car could get a meaningful charge off of the solar cells on the car and that’s been the closest one yet.

How does Philipsen have other pedals???????

Wow, Koch with the afterburners on. Impressive. #RVV26

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social helft van het peloton uit koers? Eigenlijk wel, toch?

How many of those first riders went through the red lights and are now complaining that the jury is bringing the peloton together? They’re lucky to not get DQ’d

Yep, there’s cycling going on in Belgium. #RVV26 #Flightradar24

You can’t mention that there is footage of why Archbold (RB Bora DS) is suspended and then not show it. #RVV26 Especially because in the end nobody was injured but he got kicked from the race.

Happy #RVV day. Got an ad for the new Cannondale CAAD14. It’s a racing bike, it holds a 32mm tyre, has an aggressive racing geometry and then Cannondale puts a Force AXS XPLR Gravel 1x groupset on it? 🤨 Yes, Force 2x is more expensive than XPLR but it’s already a 7500 euro bike.

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social Thorup heeft een paar dagen geleden een video gepost over zijn zilveren medaillerace met Bergsma. Gaaf om het vanuit het perspectief van de atleet zelf te horen: youtu.be/2t7OO732LRk?...

Lieke! Goooooooooooo

Can the other teams for once in their life make SDWorx close down a breakaway? Sheesh. #milansanremo

Kunnen we Jutta Leerdam nu wel even door de mangel halen? Lekker meedoen met een campagnebijeenkomst van Trump. 😬

So how’s this going to work with Iran having qualified for the FIFA World Cup? Didn’t somebody get a FIFA Peace Prize? So many questions.

Karnivool‘s new album is Very Nice.

Dames Biathlon. Gaan we een Belgisch sprookje krijgen?

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social goud in het interview met Leerdam: “en wie zijn je belangrijkste concurrentes” / “ben ik niet mee bezig” / ”want je bent alleen met jezelf bezig” Zing!

“ChatGPT started coaching Sam on how to take drugs, recover from them and plan further binges. It gave him specific doses of illegal substances, and in one chat, it wrote, ‘Hell yes—let’s go full trippy mode’” www.sfgate.com/tech/article...

What was Vanthourenhout shouting to the guys he was overtaking? He bins it himself on the start line, messes up the race for a LOT of others and then seemed to be angry with all the guys he needed to pass? After the whole encounter with Ryan Kamp not a good look again for him #CXDiegem

When did Vanthourenhout become a crybaby? He can put his elbow out but when somebody returns the favor it’s somehow not fair?

Lucinda Brand has now reached 50 consecutive podium finishes on the CX bike. By my calculations, the pro women's record belongs to Marianne Vos (obvs), at just 51, only two more podiums and Brand tops the GOAT. (Van der Poel? 66. Brand could do it outright this season...)

@thijszonneveld.bsky.social het probleem met SRAM drivetrains was dat de UCI een maximale rollout verplichtte die SRAM alleen kon doen door de derailleur te blokkeren op de 11 (maar dan spinnen ze uit) of met een 49x10. En SRAM maakt geen 49 voorblad. Dat vond de rechter een paar bruggen te ver.
