MSR- [Spoilers inside]

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Because I would have expected this post regarding a pro level race to be in the "Professional Cycling" forum: https://www.bikeforums.net/professional-cycling-fans/

Actually, I watched the last hour of the race online, before I went on my ride. But there are folks that haven't yet.

Not only does the title inconsiderately spoil the outcome for those of us who were planning on watching the race after the kids went to bed, idiot.

Way to go!

Seriously, spoiler alerts are SOP on Internet forums.

Good point, I missed that in my anger. Zapotek, I'm sorry I overreacted. I'm still very frustrated, but I have made the same mistake before and I shouldn't have been so impolite.
