Thank you Lance Armstrong. You know a lot about Eritrea now.cycling is number one.if you see The capital city Asmara people are so happy they are celebrating bini's stage win.
Lance Amstron the day that you vist Eritrea. You will meet alot of your Big fans there and you will very very Happy to be there, and it Will be an amazing for you 100%. I know many People will run after you 😂😂you will see i swear.❤❤ we love you so much. Your Big Fan from Asmera Eritrea Meron Thanks
Lance was like a God in Eritrea , you were the God of Eritrean cycling fans . It was a time where your name and poster was all over Eritrean cities . The day you land in Eritrea the government will be required to let people free from work because the city will be locked up to see your face . Many people have the face Pantani and many other greats . Eritrea is the best place to trace back the cycling greats .
At this time, the meaning focus is Tour de france titles. But if you search in tour China, there is another green jersey by Henok Muluebrhan. So Eritrea 🇪🇷 have so many talents❤❤❤❤❤❤
The great Lance Armstrong talking about Eritrea. We all watched you growing up and you would be amazed at what cycling means to a lot of people in Eritrea. Go to Eritrea and watch Sunday local races! You won't regret it!!
I remember watching the Giro years ago when the entire peloton stopped in a town where one of the riders was from to eat pastries made by his family. Such a cool thing to happen.
Hey guys, thank you for starting this podcast, dedicated to cycling around the world, as an African and cyclomeniac, I’m so proud of Biniam Girmay. Lots of people don’t know this, but biking is such big part of lots of African countries, across the continent as an everyday transportation from Generation through generation. If you travel to some African countries, it’s very usuel to see women with baby on their back and a load of wood on their head riding a bikes… and wanted to point out that Ethiopia (Eritrea) is the only country in Africa that was not colonized
Abrahamsen guested the Danish tour studio and the 20kg is confirmed. He was super skinny/small and when he started to eat more and embrace his body type more, he began to grow in height and gain more chest hair and so on. His own theory was that his body needed the fuel to start his body growth again
Agree with Lance. The TdF doesn't need to add gravel because it's popular now (I say as someone with a gravel bike). A rider getting hurt or losing time due to a fluke puncture from gravel doesn't make the Tour better.
In agree with Lance about the gravel. The TDF is a 'road' race and at a stretch, you can make a case for having the odd stage that includes one or two cobbled sections but gravel? Methinks the UCI is trying too hard to be popular / innovative. If any the main tour contenders has a crash or a mechanical because of the gravel sections - then the UCI will have compromised the result of this year's tour. IMO it's a bad idea and one which the team's should be collectively pushing back on, otherwise what's next - a stage where all the riders have to race on a uni-cycle!! Gravel in the tour = bad idea!
julick raced in NorCal when he was left w/out a sponsor for a brief period...got away with one other...but when he went on the final climb I tried to follow for about 2 min...he was on a tear....nice guy. He was young 20's I was 42..good memory
Armstrong you will be suprised even maybe cry that the day you want to Eritrea the amount of fans you have there .. will make it happen and you are coming to Eritrea 🇪🇷 either you like it or not 😅💚💚💚🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷💃💃💃💃
AMAZING FACTS ABOUT ERITREAN CYCLING. 1- 105,000 tickets was sold out for the final stage of 1997 Tour of Eritrea. 2-The Eritrean National Championship always has around 5500 spectators at the finish line(Stadium like Public Square) 3- Cycling is National Sport of Eritrea.🇪🇷
@@adventuresona700dollarhard5 check your history friend. The first 20 years of the tour was in the early 1900’s. They didn’t have paved roads over the majority of the country. It’s just fact. The push to pave roads started in the 1950’s. Facts.
Hey guys, Have been following the Tour for 25 yrs and is it my imagination? I don’t see feeding stations with bags. I remember the days of sandwiches and cans of coca cola? Has the nourishment just gotten more sophisticated? Never miss a pod… Dicky
Lance would have hated this if he was riding for GC. But at least the man is humble enough to admit IT MIGHT BE DOPE! Lance was the OG Ricki Bobby "If you ain't first your last" Love the show.
It’s nice they returned to the Eritrean cycling history which the guys didn’t know the other day… also, soccer players are whiners 🎯 coming from a die hard soccer fan!
You have no idea how you are the most loved og supported by Eritreans. I used to enjoy very badly your scycling momment and a big fans. Iance Armstrong is the most known mane by every one. I hoppe one day you see Eritrea.
Like George said yesterday. Only 20% of the field aren't coasting in the TT, so to fine one of the guys kissing his family in his hometown while he's also coasting is embarrassing.
In Costa Rica was just the same, 2 or 3 News companies out the “News” of Bernard but they do not even comment on national championships or school games that are.goung on the se Week, so
I'd rather not see a GT based on gravel riding skills, even though the original TDF was largely unpaved roads. That's what the spring classics are for nowadays.
Was thinking, "Wow. What an incredible moment. So awesome they captured it. Will probably live forever in sports history." How often does a cyclist do an individual time trial THROUGH HIS HOME TOWN? Completely agree with LA. Absolutely tone deaf to fine this guy for stopping to kiss his wife while she holds their child.

Sir Brad! ❤ Can’t wait!
That's my Guess.
Wiggins? Good god no!
Lance Armstrong well said about Eritrea. I am an Eritrean you got it to the point.
Train in Europe
@@AlexGrey-py1trhave you ever heard of Daniel Teklehaimanot always discrediting Eritrean riders
06:31 Lance put's his glasses down, thank me later.
I'd rather thank you right away, so...thank you! 🙂
Glasses back on at 15:50, squinty vision returns at 20:17

Just keep talking about Biniam and Eritrea, and your TH-cam page will be flooded with crazy Eritrean cycling fans. ❤️❤️🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷 viva Bini.
Hallo 😂✌🏾❤️🇪🇷🙏🏾🤲🏾🥇🏆👑💯💪🏾Viva BINI
Bravo Bini! 🇪🇷 ❤
Lance, George, and JB; amen! Great podcast
Excellent show guys! Thank you! See you manana! ❤
andre drege, tour of austria. RIP
Armstrong am fun of you , I’m extremely proud when I heard you talking about my younger brother, and my country thank you 🙏
Love this show, Greeting from Eritrea 🇪🇷
Cycling is so strong in eritrea even biniam girmay in the last two years couldn't win the Eritrean championship
He actually said that it’s harder to win Eritrean champion than a TDF stage. FACT

Hyped for the gravel stage. Change of pace keeps it exciting.

Very excited about Wiggo. I have missed his insight into the Tour. 🎉❤
Agree with Lance. The TdF doesn't need to add gravel because it's popular now (I say as someone with a gravel bike). A rider getting hurt or losing time due to a fluke puncture from gravel doesn't make the Tour better.
As a South African I know there’s Louis Meintjes… and he came 2nd behind Pidcock at Alpe d’huez in 2022
2500 meters above sea level. And in Eritrea cycling is number one
I saw that Litespeed TT bike painted in Trek livery at John Cobb's shop in Shreveport, LA. chained to the wall many years ago.
Love this show. The only thing it’s missing is more advertisements. Let’s get some commercials in this thing
Great show guys great pics with sir Bradley wiggins
Copper Tank 6th Street in Austin ... Such Good Memories!

It‘s Africa‘s 5th or 6th stage win

I tested positive for EPOs just by looking at the thumbnail.😂
20 kilos = 44 lbs. What the what?!?!?!?!!!
Just wanted to say… I love JB’s laugh
Brad the boy 👌👌👌
Remco had issues on the gravel when Bernal won the Giro. Ineos and others upped the pace and distanced him.
Gravel = Gimmick. The UCI should fine itself for putting Road Cycling in a bad way.
Don't be a knob. Lots of stages were gravel, particularly the mountain stages. This is old school.
Don’t be a douche bag. Almost the r tire tour was on dirt roads for the first 20 years. If a cyclist can ride gravel then they are tool bags.
Most of the Tour was gravel 😂
So Strade Bianche is a gimmick?

Thank you Lance Armstrong for talking about eritrean cycling 😊
I currently ride the blade as my tt bike and get compliments all the time. Hell of a bike!
100 swiss francs LOL - Lance still the GOAT
Thank you, Armstrong. Last time when you were talking about eritrean cycling.I was like, "This guy doesn't know shit."
Excellent. Great podcast.
Viva...🎉..Bini..🎉🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷💯💯💥💥💥🦵🦵🦵
The visa wasn't the problem. He was trying to check-in a jiffy bag...
Bradley Wiggins!! Yay!
It’s nice they returned to the Eritrean cycling history which the guys didn’t know the other day… also, soccer players are whiners 🎯 coming from a die hard soccer fan!
I am surprised you guys didn't talk about the cyclist who died on the Austria tour
USA: "Soccer."
Rest of World: "What's Soccer?" 😂⚽️
fun fact, the word soccer was invented by one of the eu countries, no reason for them to get triggered.
Britain never felt part of EU, and they acknowledged that by brexiting. @@bikingchupei2447
It's Greg Lemond, that's visiting the WEDU team.
😂
Well that would be interesting 😂
The GOAT getting interviewed by not the GOAT?
Ha ha ha
just for the final tt
Wiggo!!
The secret guest is my man chris horner
😂
🤣 I think George might have something to say about that.
11:40 *East ❤🇪🇷
I guess Lance knows words from folks shouting at him in various languages from his travels to other countries over the years. 😂

George’s son trying to be a guest on the show via FaceTime and George didn’t take the call!
Wiggins!
shout out to Jonas Abrahamsen stage win in the nearest future
Sean yates
Guys wake up!! ESPN is the biggest Sport news feed for American only, there more Nascar, Curling than cycling
Eritrean are as country champion African for last 10 years .
BG-Before George, word !
LANCE NEEDS TO GO TO ERITREA
Armstrong tour de France hero
He's no hero
@@loisnoble9139bro STAP. Its 2024. They were all doping and probably still are.
i'm going to try the feed but the shipping duties and taxes to canada is kind of a punch in the mouth.
The day before a “rest day” too.
Lance laying facts about soccer. They are a bunch of winers
It's spelled, "whiners" and see my response
I agree with Lance on this. I don’t like the gravel in TDF. Definitely Bradley Wiggins.
Has to be Bradley Wiggins?!! Awesome news if it is! He is so entertaining!!
In Costa Rica was just the same, 2 or 3 News companies out the “News” of Bernard but they do not even comment on national championships or school games that are.goung on the se Week, so
I'd rather not see a GT based on gravel riding skills, even though the original TDF was largely unpaved roads. That's what the spring classics are for nowadays.
Oh God, Wiggins is on route, time to tune out.....
Was thinking, "Wow. What an incredible moment.
So awesome they captured it. Will probably live forever in sports history."
How often does a cyclist do an individual time trial THROUGH HIS HOME TOWN?
Completely agree with LA. Absolutely tone deaf to fine this guy for stopping to kiss his wife while she holds their child.
My guess would be Bradley wiggins as the special guest
It's wiggo!
Brad tomorrow : wow
A warning: Peacock stopped streaming stage 8 several kilometers before the end. Left me hanging.
Eh, not on my end. I'm no fan of Peacock/NBC but the stream worked fine for me today.
Peacock/NBC sucks. I miss the GCN+ app this year. FloSports is just way too expensive.
Wiggo ❤❤❤
There's a Sir on this incoming plane. And since the other one is in France…
Surprise guest= Bradley Wiggins??
Riding the Litespeed now...
Less goooo
Armstrong is more popular than Bini in Eritrea. I am not sure if he knows that.
Wiggins
❤❤🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷
Gravel = Great
