They want the chef to pay for the groceries out of pocket, then reimburse that? I can't even.
If you have a private chef who does the grocery shopping, give them an expenses account or a credit card!
My first thought when seeing this was "nice of the other Danes to comfort Johan Price". Then it hit me: He's the one who won the U23 ITT Worlds in 2021 & shouted into the camera "This is

I think I've cracked the code! 💡
Tiger = yellow & black = Jumbo-Visma (Vingegaard)
Crocodiles = green = BORA-hansgrohe (Hindley)
"Jump the tiger" = position yourself ahead of TJV
"When the crocodiles have to swim" = when BOH are vulnerable in crosswinds
"You jump" = push on for

It's disgraceful of you to use Martin Niemöller's quote this way, equating groups that were persecuted & often murdered in Nazi Germany for who they were with people who choose to smoke.

Yesterday morning, news broke that Chris Froome had returned an Adverse Analytical Finding of Salbutamol in a sample taken during the Vuelta on 7 September. Many have commented on this, and often facts have been misstated or misinterpreted. I shall try to correct those. 1/
A pity there were no spectators on the Puy de Dôme (road narrow, no room with railway + protected nature zone) but a big yes to the lite podium with the views behind

Dass sich das beitragsfinanzierte Arbeitslosengeld (früher ALG I) am letzten Gehalt orientiert, während Flüchtlinge steuerfinanziertes Bürgergeld (früher ALG II) erhalten, unterschlagen Sie bewusst? Solch fremdenfeindliche Stimmung mit Unwahrheiten ist Ihrer nicht würdig.

She signed his bandana, posed for a selfie, gave him her gloves & numbers, and was sad she had nothing more: "Can I adopt him?"

Ich kann mich noch erinnern, wie gewisse Leute sich im November darüber lustig gemacht haben, dass sie beim Besuch im Donbass so eine Weste und einen Helm trug und sich dort "unwohl fühlte".

1) Wow.
2) Farmers work way more than this guy thinks, and that's with mechanisation. Back then, it was backbreaking work from sunrise to sunset.

The Zentrumspartei was anything but Social Democrat. They were (Catholic) Conservatives and the forerunners of today's Christian Democrats.
The SPD voted against the Ermächtigungsgesetz.

It’s not glowing, it’s reflective. Unless they’re in front of a focused beam of light (like a headlight), it shouldn’t impede their camouflage.

It is still a letter in Danish. And the South Jutish dialect synnejysk has the wonderful sentence "A æ u å æ ø i æ å" with only one-letter words. (translates to "I am outside on the island in the river")
Intermarché really need to sign a lead-out man for Bini! Fourth in that chaotic sprint after freelancing on the final kilometre, incl. changing from the right to the left side of the road.

Wenn alle Wahlen ungültig sind, welche Legitimation hat dann das Bundesverfassungsgericht, dessen Richter ja vom Parlament bestimmt werden? Da kann doch dieses Urteil auch nicht gültig sein, womit wiederum alle Wahlen... etc. pp. 🤪

"Man darf davon ausgehen, dass kein wirtschaftlicher Nachteil entstanden ist, mehr möchte ich nicht sagen" - warum sagt er nicht einfach "ja, ich habe der Gemeinde Geld gespendet", und die Sache ist durch?
Wer sind seine PR-Berater, und wofür bekommen die ihr Geld?!
This is how TT coverage should be (I know it isn't live). Not just watching riders pedal, but analysis of their effort with splitscreens and other technology.

Per Strand Hagenes is the first cyclist in more than a decade (possibly, the first in history) who's won a race in a team which he is riding for as a trainee/development rider.
It clearly shows how deep Jumbo's full male roster is.

There is no Paris-Roubaix for women. I am taking steps to put on a long, hard, windy race decided by cobbles in the final.

I can't do it all on my own, though. Who wants to help change women's cycling?

Die Schlussfolgerung könnte ja auch sein: "Wir müssen den öffentlichen Verkehr gerade in der Fläche massiv verbessern, damit alle etwas davon haben."

Serious question: Why isn't the rule that a crashed rider may only continue racing after a concussion check by an independent person, well-knowing this may take some time - but in return, they're allowed to get back to the group they were in at the time of the crash?
UAE Tour: Adam Yates 'doesn't remember hitting the ground' after crash and concussion 🤕

Final Côte de Domancy KOM standings:
6'44" Ciccone
6'47" Vingegaard
7'20" S. Yates
7'21" Pogačar
That means Ciccone takes 5 mountain points today.

So much this.
Most team managers are notoriously risk-averse control freaks. Which is understandable to a point - but these race days where things get out of control and you can't calculate anymore, you just have to *race* are the ones that people will remember.

And repeating the "nice work" at the end ... 🥰
My cousin's twins (turning 3 in November) did that all the time while learning to talk - repetition helps with learning words.
