'It's in very poor state' Riding at race speeds on Scotland's bumpy and uneven World Championship route led to cyclist snapping his saddle More on today's live blog: cycling
But when the mechanic picks up his crashed Scott Foil RC, it appears entirely snapped in half, with the top tube and down tube sliced, the two parts of the bike held together by their internally-routed cables.
The post-race gave us some more drama too, with Evenepoel blaming Groves and Groves defending himself the next day. Groves went on to finish third yesterday in the stage three, with Pederson coming in second, and another Aussie Michael Matthews claiming victory in the uphill sprint., is still holding the lead, and even gained a bonus sprint second on Primož Roglič yesterday.Whoever wins the Eurovision final this week, they surely aren't topping this...
Judy Mapledoram, a singer-songwriter and member of Active Travel Minehead, is back with the Somerset version of her hit single"We Don't Want No Cycle Paths Here". Already gaining fame with her previous Kensington version and making an appearance on ourthis time she's taking shots at the anti-cycling masses in West Somerset, and we can confirm she's not taking any prisoners.
The satire is subtle, but sharp, and the lyrics will force the British public into the unchartered corners of their minds:Why bother all it does is stop the cyclists getting killedWe’ll keep in burning fossil fuels and drive whenever we like

Metabolic Signatures of Performance in Elite World Tour Professional Male Cyclists - Sports MedicineBackground and Objective Metabolomics studies of recreational and elite athletes have been so far limited to venipuncture-dependent blood sample collection in the setting of controlled training and medical facilities. However, limited to no information is currently available to determine if findings in laboratory settings are translatable to a real-world scenario in elite competitions. The goal of this study was to define molecular signatures of exertion under controlled exercise conditions and use these signatures as a framework for assessing cycling performance in a World Tour competition. Methods To characterize molecular profiles of exertion in elite athletes during cycling, we performed metabolomics analyses on blood isolated from 28 international-level, elite, World Tour professional male athletes from a Union Cycliste Internationale World Team taken before and after a graded exercise test to volitional exhaustion and before and after a long aerobic training session. Moreover, established signatures were then used to characterize the metabolic physiology of five of these cyclists who were selected to represent the same Union Cycliste Internationale World Team during a seven-stage elite World Tour race. Results Using dried blood spot collection to circumvent logistical hurdles associated with field sampling, these studies defined metabolite signatures and fold change ranges of anaerobic or aerobic exertion in elite cyclists, respectively. Blood profiles of lactate, carboxylic acids, fatty acids, and acylcarnitines differed between exercise modes. The graded exercise test elicited significant two- to three-fold accumulations in lactate and succinate, in addition to significant elevations in free fatty acids and acylcarnitines. Conversely, the long aerobic training session elicited a larger magnitude of increase in fatty acids and acylcarnitines without appreciable increases in lactate or succinate. Comparable signatures were revealed after sprinting and climbing
