Previous 2 Kuurnes in general and tailwind in the last 60k. Enough reason for me.

maybe I am too high on her as Winspace's designated project but 8 out of 10 cases she would have won it

...who, in the holy land of cycling, Belgium, France and Italy, will face everything and everyone and will try to overcome their limits. This year's classics season will be special once again - either because of the clash of the stars or because of the total unpredictability.

Something that only we, who are in the sport, can understand and take it as something sacred in our daily habitat.
Yes. This is the classics season. From today, for almost two months, we can follow day by day, week by week, with bated breath the riders

Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, on the side of the road, defying the cold, wind, and rain, watch as the heroes, our heroes, year after year, battling the elements, each other, and the cobblestones that are often several centimeters deep, to present us something magical.

(there will be a sort of introduction/preview, but it will have that #BenceSauce with many many ethereal elements)

1. Mate, I'm honest, if it would have been shit, I'd have said straight into your face :D It was good, great, tiny typos here and there but that's totally acceptable.
2. Overthinking? Yeah, it's possible. Love to do it in a larger extent.

Since I mainly deal with reviews, which require a very different perspective, it will be difficult to incorporate this into a preview environment, but my secrets are as follows:
- at least 1, but preferably 2 humanities degrees
- 3x weekly morning dirty chai latte
that's all :)

So I read it, it turned out quite good, although I disagree with the winner's identity, it was good enough as an introduction to this genre.

Wait a sec, let me read this first, and if it's good, I'll share the sauce, I'll share the secret

Same street as well for the finish?

If you wanna give a hot take: when will be the next week when UAE won't lead both rankings (weekly & seasonal)?

Same finish line, different directions. Technically this answers the question, but that was nowhere near as awkward as this one.

Good call: Same finish line, approached by different directions in S1 and S2

Nope. S1 there was Bilbao, s2 finished in San Sebastian.

In UAE - Visma relations, the former being first and the latter being 23rd for season tells everything about how the team approaches things...

Én mindig azt hittem hogy kb velem egykorú lehetsz, maximum 2-3 évvel idősebb, ez lepett meg a legjobban most

Including incredibly talented and skilled young and old people who live off this, by crushing them ideologically This is not normal. Some of them are actually my friends.
Guys, I don't want to live in this country now. It's gone way too far. If you know any places where a 28-year-old can go... :(

Orbán also promised that he would "settle accounts with the Soros Empire's Budapest depot." This refers to independent media and civil organizations that benefit from legal American grant funds.
Do you know what this means? Hundreds, thousands are losing their jobs.

Our Prime Minister wants to write into the Constitution that "a person is either a man or a woman." He also referred to the ban on Pride when he said that the organisers should not bother with this year's event.
