Wollongong 2022, Mixed Team Relay: Time to Use the Turbo

If you are unaware, Luke Durbridge's (Australia) - he is on the front - nickname is 'Durbo Turbo'.  He is often found on the front of the peloton chasing down break aways for his BikeExchange-Jayco team.  Today he is using that particular skill to pull himself, Michael Matthews and Team Australia towards a new best time as the men's half of the Mixed Team Relay.  His efforts and that of his female teammates were enough to earn the home team a bronze medal after a long time in the hot seat.  It does seem to be a pattern of these Worlds, to have an Australian rider sit in first place right up until the end of the time trials of these games.

Tour Femmes '22, Stage 7: On to the Final Climb

This group has been hanging out in the middle of the leader's and the group of the Maillot Jaune for kilometers.  It was nice to see Urska Zigart (BikeExchange-Jayco) dangling off of a leading group rather than the back of the peloton.  Her riding position implys she isn't comfortable around her fellow riders.  It seems she should just go on a solo raid since she is spending the entire Tour de France Femmes riding in the wind anyway.  She was keeping close to Silvia Persico (Valcar-Travel & Service), Evita Muzic (FDJ-Suez-Futuroscope) as they sextet swung onto the road that will take them up the Grand Ballon.  Zigart moved up 43 places due to her efforts on the day, she still sits 46th on the general classification.  Persico is riding to hold onto her third place over all.  If she can't catch the two up the road, she will slide down a bit.  She did slide to sixth. I was still trying to figure out if Muzic was riding for her team leader, or the other way round.

Tour Femmes '22, Stage 2: Opening Up a Gap

After bridging up to the lone escapeof Maike Van Der Duin (Le Col-Wahoo) the world champion Elisa Balsamo (Trek-Segafredo) turns round to see who had come with her.  The answer was Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma) and others.  More on that later.  The group quickly built up and advantage on the peloton that contained the Maillot Jaune, the Maillot Vert, and the Maillot a Pois.  The Maillot Blanc was looking over at the Rainbow Jersey.  I suspect that Van Der Duin was a bit awed to be joined by both Balsamo and Vos.  The rider back there from BikeExchange-Jayco never did make it across the divide.

Tour Femmes '22, Stage 2: Hanging Around the Back

It can be a bit risky hanging around the back of the peloton on a long flat stage.  One never knows when a crash or crosswinds, or both, may split the peloton into pieces.  And of course, that is what happen.  I'm not sure why Urska Zigart (BikeExchange-Jayco) or Yulia Biriukova (Arkea) were back here.  Perhaps Marit Raaijmakers (Human Powered Health) could be forgiven.  She had already spent over 70 kilometers off the front.  With the splits that happen, all of them lost minutes in the general classification.  Lesson learned?

Tour '22, Stage 21: A Clean Set of Wheels

Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) had such a strong sprint that you can barely see anyone else in the frame.  He finished leaving everyone else looking at him.  He did a bike throw at the line, but he could have been celebrate for the last 50 meters given just how much daylight he had over Dylan Groenewegen (BikeExchange-Jayco) and Alexander Kristoff (Intermache-Wanty Gobert).  Kristoff has Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) trying to bump him off of Groenewegen's wheel, but there was no way the tiny Australian was going to budge the veteran sprinter.  Peter Sagan may not be in the frame, but he did finish fifth on the final stage of the Tour.

This is it for the men's Tour, but I will be painting the Tour de France Femmes for the next seven days, so I hope you will continue to follow along.

Tour '22, Stage 21: Down the Other Side

Now that all of the ceremonies are over (well until the final jersey presentations) it is time to race.  I have always loved this view of the peloton sweeping around the l'Arc de Triomphe since the circle was included in the 100th Tour de France.  Conversely, I am disappointed to not see the giant French flag that has flapped under the arch.  As the peloton upped the pace to set up their sprinters they were moving too fast for me or Phil Liggett to catch their names (or at least reveal them on air).  All I know is that it is Quick Step-Alpha Vinyl, BikeExchange-Jayco, and Team DSM lining out the peloton to help out their sprinters.

Tour '22, Stage 17: The Jersey Is His

Now that I have decided that it is okay to create vertical as well as horizontal paintings, there is just no stopping myself.  Nor is there any stopping Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) either.  By taking out the intermediate sprint in Le Barthe de Neste, he has made it so no one can catch him in the race to win the Maillot Vert of the best sprinter in the Tour.  All he need do now is make it to Paris.  There aren't enough points available for anyone to be able to out score him in the remaining road stages of this Tour de France.  One how had tried is just behind him, Michael Matthews (BikeExchange-Jayco).  So Van Aert pulling on the final Maillot Vert in Paris is now just down to luck and staying healthy.

Tour '22, Stage 14: I Knew

When Michael Mathews (BikeExchange-Jayco) attacked the break with 51 kilometers the commentators on NBC Sports thought it was a fool's errand.  It was far to long to go solo and all were sure he wouldn't be able to stay away on the final climb up to the airfield above Mende.  He was passed by Alberto Bettiol (EF Education-EasyPost) on the climb, but once it level off towards the top, Mathews was able to get back on.  He opened up a gap on the short downhill before turning onto the air strip for the finish.  He ended the day putting fifteen seconds into Bettiol by the time they had both finished the stage.  He knew he could do it.

Tour '22, Stage 14: Three Away

Michael Matthews (BikeExchange-Jayco) was joined by three others, yet one had an ill timed flat tire.  With under fifteen kilometers to race the threesome that included Matthews as well as Luis Leon Sanchez (Bahrain-Victorious) and the Austrian champion Felix Grosschartner (Bora-Hansgrohe).  They had 41 seconds on those behind.  It was looking good but they did have a steep climb up to the finish through the town of Mende.  The climb may allow those behind to bridge up to this trio.

Tour '22, Stage 14: Going Long, Going Early

Using a small uncategorized climb, Michael Mathews (BikeExchange-Jayco) attack his erstwhile break away companions for a long solo effort for victory.  He may have been hoping someone might have come with him, but he wasn't waiting around for anyone.  He quickly built up a thirty second gap on those he had left behind.  He had another 51 kilometers to race, kilometers the included two more categorized climbs before the line.  He clearly felt he had the legs to make it work.

Tour '22, Stage 10: I'm Still Here

With a very well timed bike throw, Magnus Cort (EF Education-EasyPost) reminded us all that he is still in the Tour (and still climbing rather well).  It really looked like Nick Schultz (BikeExchange-Jayco) had done enough to out sprint everyone to win Stage 10, but he didn't have the sprinter's bike throw down as well as the former wearer of the Maillot a Pois.  Cort has been riding in obscurity since his brilliant opening stages in his home country of Denmark.  He held onto the King of the Mountains title until the end of stage 8, a stage or two longer than he thought possible.  He did add a point in his total today, but it wasn't enough to unseat the two ahead of him in mountain points.  It is a rare thing to see a photo finish on a mountain top finish, yet here one is.

Tour '22, Stage 10: Two More Coming

The final kilometers up to the Altiport of Megeve saw attack after attack going from the dwindling break away.  With two kilometers to race, Luis Leon Sanchez (Bahrain-Victorious) couldn't have been pleased to see Nick Schultz (BikeExchange-Jayco) coming up the rise towards him with the American Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar) on the Australian's wheel.  Sanchez had been off the front alone and I'm sure he was entertaining thoughts of a stage win in this Tour.  I think he has one several Grand Tour stages in the past.

Tour '22, Stage 10: Still Not Established

Perhaps it was the long downhill to kick off the stage, or perhaps it was due to yesterday's rest day, but it took a long, long time to get a break established in Stage 10.  Attack after attack was pulled back only to watch another group attempt to get away.  Finally, this bunch was beginning to look like they might be the ones to make it stick.  Anthony Perez (Cofidis) looks back to see who might be joining him in this effort.  Over his shoulder he could spy the Ineos-Grenadiers duo of Luke Rowe and Dylan Van Baarle.  He probably spotted the bright pink kit of the former King of the Mountains, Magnus Cort (EF Education-EasyPost).  However behind his opposite shoulder was Jack Bauer (BikeExchange-Jayco) and the American Tour neophyte Matteo Jorgenson (Movistar).  With 73 kilometers to go, it was the start of the Col de Jambaz the set up their departure from the grip of the peloton.

Tour '22, Stage 6: Trading White for Yellow

Well, technically he will still have White too.  Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) out sprinted Michael Mathews (BikeExchange-Jayco) and David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ) to win the stage and take over the lead in this Tour de France.  Since he had opened up four seconds on the peloton and got a ten second bonus he is now the leader of the Tour, leading the American Neilson Powless by four seconds.  Had he not won the day, we would have seen the first American in yellow in a very long time.  It does seem a bit early for the Slovenian to take over the race lead, so Powless may have a chance to take it back tomorrow.  Although, Pogacar is such a competitive racer I can't imagine him ever not racing to win.  That being said (or typed) it is still a very long lumpy two weeks to Paris.

Tour '22, Stage 6: Cueing Up for Yellow

It was another American on the front of the peloton, Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) cueing up the run to the line for his teammate Tadej Pogacar.  Several on the wheel of the wearer of the Maillot Blanc were hoping they would have the legs to take over the Maillot Jaune today.  Yet it was Pogacar who was best placed of those behind him including Tom Pidcock (Ineos-Grenadiers), Michael Matthews (BikeExchange-Jayco), Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and Nairo Quintana (Arkea-Samsic).  Given how well Pogacar is climbing, it is unlikely anyone will get the better of him in the final kilometer of the day.

Tour '22, Stage 6: Stringing It Out

With the early break now either in the peloton, or out the back, it was time to see what others could make happen. Inside of the final 20 kilometers, I believe it is Matej Mohoric (Bahrain-Victorious) who strings out the peloton in his effort to go for stage glory.  Behind him, it is BikeExchange-Jayco making sure he doesn't slip away for their man Michael Matthews.  Sorry, I wasn't able to figure out who the two on the front were.  Behind them, Jumbo-Visma is setting up their next card to play now that their man Wout Van Aert will be surrending his Maillot Jaune.  He does just trade it in for the Maillot Vert, where he has a substantial lead in the sprint points competition.

Tour '22, Stage 3: So Close!

I doubt it is possible for a stage to be any closer than it was today.  Dylan Groenewegen (BikeExchange-Jayco) timed his throw for the line perfectly just barely edging out Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) for victory in Sonderberg.  That set up Van Aert taking second in a stage of this Tour for the third time.  That was more than enough to keep him in both the Maillot Jaune and Maillot Vert.  Matthieu Van Der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) claimed the last step of the podium edging out Peter Sagan (TotalEnergies) whom you can not see from this angle.  

Now we all get a rest as the Tour entourage spends tomorrow getting itself to the north of France.  I hesitate to call it a rest day for the Tour, but I am looking forward to catching up on some other things.

Liege Bastogne Liege Femmes '22: Working Well

It was a strong group that had just formed off the front of the peloton when the Liege Bastogne Liege Femmes coverage went on air.  Sadly, this was the first I saw of the race with just 41 kilometers to go.  By this time in the men's race many riders were on their way to hospital in ambulances, fortunately that didn't happen off camera for the women today.  The group that contained Evita Muzic (FDJ Nouvelle-Aquitaine Futuroscope), Sara Martin (Movistar), Amanda Spratt (BikeExchange-Jayco), Leah Kirchman (DSM), Clara Honsinger (EF Education-TIBCO-SVB), and Soraya Paladin (Canyon/SRAM) had just over a minute as they hit the bottom of the Cote de la Redoute.  There may be one or two more women in this group, but those are all that you can see relatively easily in this painting.

Gent-Wevelgem Men '22: Coming, Or What?

Most every time the camera cut to the early break away, Johan Jacobs (Movistar) was gapping his break away companions.  As the group road onto the cobbles as the exited Leisele he looked back to see were Jelle Wallays (Cofidis), Lars Saugstad (Uno-X) and Alexander Konychev (BikeExchange-Jayco), or perhaps he was just enjoying the early spring vistas.  I say they were riding onto the cobbles, but all of them had slipped over to the much smoother bike path, rather than jarring their teeth on the cobbles to there left.  It is a rare thing when the bike bath is the better road surface in my riding experience.

Paris Nice 2022: Winning the Stage But Not the Race

Simon Yates (BikeExchange-Jayco) had done all he could in the final kilometers to pull out an upset in Paris Nice today.  He had built up a gap at the summit of the Col d'Eze that might allow him to move into the lead with the ten second time bonus of a stage victory.  Alas, the Maillot Jaune had a teammate with him to help chase back the Brit on the Australian team.  As Yates celebrated his stage victory he looked back to see the Jumbo-Visma duo of Wout Van Aert and Primoz Roglic just coming into view on the Avenue des Anglais at the line in Nice.  Yates had done enough to win a stage, but couldn't pull off the race win due mainly to the efforts of Wout Van Aert in support of his team leader Primoz Roglic.  Still, nothing to hang his head about and it sure made for an exciting finale.

I'll be back painting some more of the one day classics in the coming weeks so be sure to check back in soon.
