Lordy this is good marketing.

Lordy this is good marketing.
Picture of a paused YouTube video for the music video what was that by Lorde. The image is zoomed in on the name of the bicycle she's riding. It says quantum race.
Confirmed: it's a Klein Quantum race with paperboy bars. Eat your heart out #bikesky
Yeah, the 7-Eleven bike paint schemes are cool, but have you seen Lorde's flatbar-mod 90s Klein? #bikesky

Lorde has a flatbar-modded 90s Klein for ripping around NYC.
Just when we thought she couldn't get any cooler.

1. Thank you for sharing that it was invented by the real estate industry. Learned something new there.
2. Is there anyone doing a real metric?
A seal with a question mark
This isn't a meme, but it has potential
Giulio Ciccone throwing his glasses as he crosses the finish line. There's a caption over the image that says fine, with us. And then has the logo for the glasses sponsor, implying that his glasses sponsor will pay the fine he was given for throwing his sunglasses into the audience
Nailed it
Take the Jordan Nike fix: bake it into the eyewear contract that the eyewear partner pays the fee each time he wins.
Agreed. It seems like he's lacking the explosiveness, as well as keeping that strength deep into a race
Tough one for Wout. Do we think it's fitness or mental edge?
Skjelly and Remco didn't even try 💔
On the ladies side, all three were absolute champs, and Puck housed hers in like 3 seconds. 3rd on the podium, first in our hearts.
Not drinking the #AmstelGoldRace podium beer should be an instant DQ.
Two important notes however: Pog has a whole bunch of really hard racing days in his legs already this year, and Remco is just getting back into racing. So they are each on opposite ends of form.
Today's men's #AmstelGoldRace was top notch road racing. It set up an expected outcome, and then broke the narrative repeatedly. First that Pogacar even got caught, and then for a guy like Skelly to win a three-up sprint against Pog or Evenpoel....
That was some serious bicycle racing, eh?
Me ten minutes ago #amstelgold : there's no way in hell Skjelmose can be either of these dudes in a sprint.
Me now:
I am not here to @ you.
I am here to @gree.
My coach during college had one of those. The paint job is even cooler in person and outdoors. It's like a muted glitter sort of thing.
So... Kopecky is totally gonna pull the double, right?

Ladies for the W across the board.
Wild thread. Call your reps to ensure they know about this.
Lollllll yeah you're qualified but MY GUY DO NOT TAKE THE BAIT.
Cool but where's the Tommeke song @caleyfretz.bsky.social ?

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
Enjoy! Biju once brought the Skratch Labs food truck to a product launch I was running in Sedona. We had journalists riding in 90° heat and nobody bonked. The food was great and it kept everyone fueled.
If you dig those, check out Allen Lim's 'Feed Zone' cookbook. He and Biju Thomas popularized the rice cakes and a whole bunch of other great cycling-oriented nutrition.
Teammate of the day goes to Jasper Stuyven. Rode the Visma train back to the front group and took some monster pulls for Mads. #rvv #rvv25
