A local business owner near my work has had right-wing stickers/signs on their vehicle & business for years. Today I noticed that all of them have been removed, leaving only a "veteran" bumper sticker & a US flag. (I guarantee they weren't forced to take them down.) Interesting anecdotal evidence?

Wanna know how my week is going? I just had to cancel my scheduled day off this week and my period just started. If the Rapture DOES happen today, I probably wouldn't notice.

US peeps and #USschedule fans! If you don't have FloBikes (which is carrying #Kigali2025 in the States), they ARE putting up FULL replays for free on their YouTube channel! They kind of suck as a streamer, but this is pretty cool. Currently available links below 👇👇👇

Looking at the history & numbers, it was not a tragic day for Pogi by any stretch. His best TT finish at Worlds ever, actually. People just made a lot of assumptions. But I say that even if Pogi had been in top-notch TT shape, Remco still wins. He was THAT GOOD. Next Sunday beckons! #Kigali2025

Remco Evenepoel SMASHES through and dominates the Worlds ITT! Rainbow Remco strikes again in an amazing performance! So well deserved and I couldn’t be happier for him. ❤️👏🌈 #Kigali2025

Pogi does not have the legs and Remco is putting down a TT for the ages. Remco might actually catch Pogi. Wow wow wow. #Kigali2025

Holy Toledo! Remco is FLYING!! Let’s see how the climbs and cobbles go, but woooo! The champ is making his authority known!! #Kigali2025

Home and settled with food for the last bit of the ITT. Dang, not a lot of people in it, eh? #Kigali2025

Change my mind. A stage race ITT is one thing, but for a world/continental ITT championship, it should NOT have a lot of climbing. #Kigali2025

Oooh, looks like the women’s ITT was a banger! Must watch replay!! #Kigali2025

Happy birthday to the man who drug me into this sport by just being himself. 😁 Happy birthday, Tadej Pogacar, and may you go well and safe today! 🎉🥳🎉

I am not going to be able to watch the Champs ITTs tomorrow, because 1) 4am start time and 2) I have to act as bike escort for some early morning runs some distance from home. I hope all goes well and smooth and safe and that we get some fast zoomies! 💨💨💨 #Kigali2025

The winning attack at #Super8Classic happened before broadcast, so I didn’t see it, but it was both interesting & frustrating to see Jasper get the Remco Treatment(tm). His team exhausted, Jasper went to do the work, then got no assistance because they all feared him (or didn’t have the manpower).

Dang, that was a finish at #Super8Classic! MVP was absolutely Wout van Aert. Christophe Laporte was also stellar. Bad luck for Brennan at the end, but WHAT an effort by Visma.

Getting even more saucy at #Super8Classic, groups coming back together and Jasper on the front of the peloton….

There is something special about Wout van Aert dropping the hammer for a teammate, isn’t there? #Super8Classic

Crashes at both #OkoloSlovenska and #Super8Classic as teams try to tear their respective pelotons apart. 😬😬😬

A very slow, sludgy morning (did I mention party last night?), so I’m trying to get myself together. Turns out I need to do some overtime work on the weekend. *sigh* About to clap on #Super8Classic to see how Jasper’s post-Vuelta legs go.

Heading out to my friend’s birthday party…the theme is “Pretty Dresses & Tiaras.” I have on a dress, but my tiara is Catherine of Aragon’s crown from the musical “Six.” And I dunno how pretty my dress is. (I organized the party and picked the theme, so… #compromise? 😂😂😂) 💃👑🎉🥳

I’m told this is how it’s supposed to look, so, a win?? 😂 It smells great!

So it is a dear friend’s birthday today, and she has requested I bake her mom’s hot fudge pudding cake for said event. I kept TRIPLE checking myself because it is one of those recipes where I’m like “HOW is this supposed to work??” But it’s in the oven. Cross your fingers it works!

Just announced, the fall schedule, LET’S GO!! 👏👏👏🚴💨 #JPDF (📸: Alpecin IG)

OMG WOOOO!!! What a sprint to the line in a wild bunch sprint! Mathieu Kockelmann for the Luxembourg National Team!!! #SkodaTour

No new pictures, where are you mentally right now?

Whoops, I didn't realize that the #OkoloSlovenska started so early, since I have to VPN in. I am catching the last 30km, though!

The #CyclingBlueSky #USschedule road watching for Thurs 9/8: Tour of Luxembourg S2 (M) - MAX, 850am The Tour de Slovaquie is just not showing on MAX in the US for some reason and I can't find it on any other US platform, sorry gang!

My Visma Bee fans, ya'll are missing so much fun at the #OkoloSlovenska... EVERY single Bee has attacked in the last 20km and I am LOVING it!! 👏

Multiple races to choose from to watch in this morning hour...(after a very good Wallonie Femmes)... ...I think I will take the #OkoloSlovenska. Others to follow on replay!

I DID NOT NEED TO KNOW THAT ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW POP FUNKOS EXIST! Ahem. Sorry. Carry on with your day! 😂

This also comes with the launch of their website; not much info yet beyond the route, but more to come soon! #TheClassicIsBack

Oh, and I should mention...It's also BOTH men and women's events with an equal prize purse for each race! HOLLA!

*runs around screaming* AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Who wants to come with meeeeeee!!!??? (August 30th, 2026)

The UCI has made EVERY wrong decision possible (or lack of decision possible). Now Lappartient is doubling down on the worst decision. Men trying to act big and tough...sure, that's *always* worked out, right? 🤦‍♀️

No #USschedule for #CyclingBlueSky on Tues, 9/16 because there are no races on US platforms.

Y’know what today is, right? Happy birthday, Wout van Aert! May you have a day as great as you are! 🥳🥳🥳 (📸: Visma website)

No #USschedule for #CyclingBlueSky on Mon, 9/15 because there are no races on US platforms. But HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOUT!!

Have to run out for an errand before the end of #GPCQM but looks like Pogi might be pulling to help a teammate win. Not mad at it if that’s the plan. This is how you get a team to ride for you. Respect. 👏

Pogi attacking almost exactly where he did last year on the penultimate lap. Time trial it to the end! 👏 #GPQCM

The podium, finish line, and barriers have all been pulled down by the protestors. I hope everyone at the finish line is safe. No podiums for #LaVuelta25. They’re trying to figure out how to move the riders.

#LaVuelta25 is over, final stage cancelled due to protestors blocking roads. Current word is that podiums may still take place if safety can be assured.
