again w Mathieu it fascinates me that the guy whose image is very much about how cool he is w his clothes and hair and bike skills and that is also how he wants to present himself is also the guy so willing to absolutely destroy himself animal style and crash to the floor

i love sports it's trashy reality tv it's a romcom it's a political drama it's a youtube epic fail compilation it's an exercise in manipulating statistics but most importantly: it is an easy way to acquire a collection of guys who are so shaped

"Doesn't it take a toll to do what you do?" asked the interviewer, in regards to mental and physical effects of cycling.

Mads: "It's like kicking the can down the road, but I'm not doing this five years more so I just hope I can keep kicking that can down the road in front of me."

the first thing u need to understand about athletes is that they are cringe losers bc they skipped school in hopes of never having to work a real job. the second thing you need to understand abt athletes is that they are first and foremost workers whose years of lucrative labour are capped by the very real limit that the strain of that selfsame work puts on their bodies which means they retire at an age before most people's careers even really take off and are expected to get by for the rest of their lives on the money they earned those few years. the third thing you need to understand is that they want to fuck their coworker.

Not Karl asking Adrie if Mathieu’s has already asked him any fatherly advice and Adrie immediately going “I’m gonna be the last person he’ll ask, he’d have to be really desperate”

I mean alright it’s good that you know, but yeah

mathieu is truly living in the wout world this year, got dropped and they didn't do shit in front i am crying

Anyone getting emotional watching Tadej and Jonas' interviews and remembering where they began? That they chose to chase each other in the mountains of France for five, six long years, an act of destroying that should shatter them both, only to be built up by each other's hands because that's how it is between them, and how they want it to be, in the end. Two celestial bodies colliding and burning for all the world to see.

Perhaps mutually assured destruction bleeds into love, whatever form that may be.

Cycling is such a weird sport sometimes
