@Miggi113. It started of as Radioshack then it became Discovery, and now it is US Postal
As in my Discovery Shirt? If so then That would be a very weird coincidence...

Hey guys, first of all: I'm sorry for not posting for awhile. I will still update it but not very often. I have bought PES13 recently and I can't stop playing it 
An update will follow soon.

6th of July 2019 - Descending madness - Stage 5
Besançon - Divonne-les-Bains
Today's stage started where it had finished yesterday. In Besançon. A 200 km long would bring us in Divonne-les-Bains. The stage is considered as flat, but with a long downhill just before the finish, something special could happen.

Breakaway
The beautiful city of Divonne-les-Bains
In the beginning of the race, a big group gets away. Most well known names are JD Atapuma and Gregoire Tsawa. However, Team Saeco (Sagan) don't want to let them go and right after the top of the last climb, they are caught back. Luckily for the breakaway, one of them still gets the K.O.M. jersey. The lucky man is John Darwin Atapuma Hurtado, riding for Colombia, who gets the honour.
In the downhill we see Boasson Hagen riding in front, with Deinoff in his wheel. In the pouring rain, nobody wants to chase and the two can ride away.
Edvald completely empties himself for his teamleader and with five kilometres to go, Deinoff is on his own, defending a 30 second gap. The Saeco team is pulling hard and now it is Aker vs Saeco, can Deinoff make it?
Yes he can! Aker's first stage win in the Tour is for Deinoff. If you found that shocking take a look at the numbers 2-5. Yes, all Saeco's. Saeco does a 2-3-4-5, but without winning. What a shame!
Fabian keeps yellow. Great for him! Deinoff climbs to the 9th place. The great thing is, he is past Eijssen. And with tomorrow's timetrial, he can lose something, which is great.
Stage 5| 1 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | 5h09'23 | | 2 | Angelo Pagani | Saeco Cycling Team | + 21 | | 3 | Taylor Phinney | Saeco Cycling Team | s.t. | | 4 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | s.t. | | 5 | Nicolas Edet | Saeco Cycling Team | s.t. | | 6 | Beñat Intxausti Elorriaga | Saunier Duval | s.t. | | 7 | Roger Niquet | Saunier Duval | s.t. | | 8 | Jelle Vanendert | ING Cycling Team | s.t. | | 9 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Aker Solutions - TV2 | s.t. | | 10 | Joachim Larsen | Aker Solutions - TV2 | s.t. |
GC after the 5th stage
| 1 | Fabian Cancellara | RayBan Cycling Team | 19h33'38 | | 2 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | + 29 | | 3 | Taylor Phinney | Saeco Cycling Team | + 51 | | 4 | Lars Boom | Lotto - Belisol | + 53 | | 5 | Didier Delporte | AG2R | + 56 | | 6 | Jesse Sergent | Sky Professional Cycling Team | + 1'01 | | 7 | Daniel Summerhill | Cannondale | + 1'05 | | 8 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Aker Solutions - TV2 | + 1'06 | | 9 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | + 1'07 | | 10 | Fabrice Bellier | AG2R | + 1'08 |
This promises to be a terrific Tour. If each stage is going to be like this. Wow!
Deinoff can have these stages. But the mountains are mine. ~Yannick Eijssen.

Thank you for your comment Ian. They indeed wanted to catch Deinoff. With their Italian masterminds they even tried to bribe us, but we said:'No no!'
The new report is up. And this time: With pictures. Enjoy my over-edited pics

The 7th of July 2019, the 6th stage of the Tour de France
There it is! The first mountain stage. Well, not really a mountain stage as it is a 45 kilometer timetrial which brings us from Oyonnax to Chatillon-en-Michaille. If there are no weird things happening, we will see a new yellow jersey at the end of the day.

The community of Chatillon-en-Michaille
The day begins and we can show that the weather is horrible. This is going to be a brutal ride.
Today is all about these three men. Romain Sicard, Yannick Eijssen and Ben Deinoff. Sicard started first and came to the line in a new best time. 1h05'26 was the Frenchman's time.
Then the Belgian started. Ascending the Col de Berentin was no problem for him, as he went on and beat Sicard by 3 seconds! 1h05'23.
In his worst discipline, we can see Ben Deinoff riding up the mountain. You can see he is having a hard time. But he ends up doing surprisingly well. 1.28 behind Eijssen is great!
Stage 6
| 1 | Yannick Eijssen | ING Cycling Team | 1h05'23 | | 2 | Romain Sicard | Banesto | + 3 | | 3 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | + 25 | | 4 | Fabrice Bellier | AG2R | + 34 | | 5 | Rein Taaramäe | RayBan Cycling Team | + 38 | | 6 | Wout Poels | ING Cycling Team | + 1'12 | | 7 | Taylor Phinney | Saeco Cycling Team | + 1'26 | | 8 | Pierre Rolland | Banesto | + 1'28 | | 9 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | s.t. | | 10 | Petr Ignatenko | Deutsche Telekom Cycling | + 1'35 |
After his amazing prologue, Tejay also gets a decent result in the timetrial and he can pull on the yellow jersey again. Great job by him.
GC after stage 6
| 1 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | 20h39'55 | | 2 | Yannick Eijssen | ING Cycling Team | + 16 | | 3 | Romain Sicard | Banesto | + 42 | | 4 | Fabrice Bellier | AG2R | + 48 | | 5 | Rein Taaramäe | RayBan Cycling Team | + 1'03 | | 6 | Taylor Phinney | Saeco Cycling Team | + 1'23 | | 7 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | + 1'41 | | 8 | Petr Ignatenko | Deutsche Telekom Cycling | + 1'51 | | 9 | Ken Berghuis | Lotto - Belisol | + 2'04 | | 10 | Pierre Rolland | Banesto | + 2'13 |
The GC is shaping up and we can see Eijssen, Sicard and Bellier are up with the best. This is going to be a terrific Tour. I can feel it.

Thanks for the comments guys! It means a lot to me
The 8th of July 2019, the 7th stage of the Tour de France
A mountain stage! The Alps are now really beginning with this interesting ride from Annecy to Saint-Etienne-des-Cuines. The winner must be a real climber, as there are lots of obstacles on the route. Col de la Forclaz de Montmin, Col des Saisies, Cormet de Roselend and the Col de la Madeleine. On the top of the Madeleine, a 16km long downhill waits for them.
Favourites:
*****
Yannick Eijssen
****
Romain Sicard, Fabrice Bellier
***
Ken Berghuis, Steven Kruiswijk, Ben Deinoff
**
Teodoro Pantani, Petr Ignatenko, Pierre Rolland

Rafael Valls Ferri, Breakaway
The Col de la Madeleine
In today's breakaway is our own Olaf Wahlberg he is first at the first summit. Later, he also gets first on the Cormet de Roselend. He secures the polka-dot jersey and he can wear it tomorrow!
The break gets quickly reeled in and with a 30-man group we will be climbing the Madeleine. And then, three kilometres from the summit, le Maillot Jaune attacks! Tejay tries to catch the others by surprise. Deinoff is only looking at Eijssen, knowing he should not let him go.
But Tejay gets caught back, and 16 men launch themselves into the downhill. One especially. Sicard is attacking and taking really sharp corners. Ben is still looking at Yannick, but he plans an attack.
5 kilometres before the finish, Deinoff jumps away, with Rolland trying to follow. He catches up with Sicard and goes on. Rolland can't find the energy to follow the rider from Trondheim.
But Sicard can! Together, they go into the last kilometre and Sicard can pip Deinoff for the win. 18 seconds later, Pierre Rolland leads the group of favourites over the line.
Stage 7 Results| 1 | Romain Sicard | Banesto | 5h46'38 | | 2 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | s.t. | | 3 | Pierre Rolland | Banesto | + 18 | | 4 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | s.t. | | 5 | Bauke Mollema | Aegon - Dia Cycling Team | s.t. | | 6 | Rafael Valls Ferri | Geox - Red Bull | s.t. | | 7 | Fabrice Bellier | AG2R | s.t. | | 8 | Serguei Szemietiew | Giorgio Armani - Pinarello | s.t. | | 9 | Petr Ignatenko | Deutsche Telekom Cycling | s.t. | | 10 | Steven Kruijswijk | US Postal - Berry Floor | s.t. |
Van Garderen holds on to yellow. Deinoff and Sicard move up a few places.
GC after Stage 7| 1 | Tejay Van Garderen | Saeco Cycling Team | 26h26'51 | | 2 | Yannick Eijssen | ING Cycling Team | + 16 | | 3 | Romain Sicard | Banesto | + 24 | | 4 | Fabrice Bellier | AG2R | + 48 | | 5 | Ben Deinoff | Aker Solutions - TV2 | + 1'23 | | 6 | Petr Ignatenko | Deutsche Telekom Cycling | + 1'51 | | 7 | Rein Taaramäe | RayBan Cycling Team | + 1'57 | | 8 | Pierre Rolland | Banesto | + 2'13 | | 9 | Steven Kruijswijk | US Postal - Berry Floor | + 2'15 | | 10 | Bauke Mollema | Aegon - Dia Cycling Team | + 2'18 |
The first real mountain stage wasn´t really that spectacular. Deinoff did all he can, but Sicard was just to strong.

Interview with Ben Deinoff
Hello! My name is Anders Gudjonhsen and I will be interviewing Ben Deinoff today.
AG: Hello Mr. Deinoff.
BD: Hi!
AG: Yesterday you struck out of nowhere, and almost got your second stage win. How do you look back on that day?
BD: It was a good day. The sun was shining and I felt good. I 'm very positive about that. I gave it all in my acceleration, but I just couldn't hold Sicard off in the sprint. He was amazing.
AG: I also heard that you were planning to attack tomorrow. Can you confirm that?
BD: I'm not going to confirm anything. The opponents read this too and I don't want to open my tactic book for them.
AG: Okay, Okay... Maybe this is a weird question, but, do you believe everybody in the peloton is clean? I mean, the past years we have seen various doping scandals. In 2013 there was Joaquin Rodriguez, there was Basso in 2015. Even Philippe Gilbert was caught in that year.
BD: I know not everybody in the peloton is clean. But what can you expect? I mean, in every sport there are cheaters. Also in this one.
AG: Aren't those cheaters bothering you?
BD: No. The people who got caught in the Silvesterini scandal (Rodriguez, Basso, Gilbert, Boonen etc.) are still heroes. They have done the impossible. They made people like me stand up. Stand up and take my bike. Just because they've used doping doesn't mean they're no worthy sportsmen anymore.
AG: Now enough about doping. Back to you. What do you think you can get out of this Tour the France?
BD: The best I can.
AG: That's it?
BD: I want to make Norwegians cycle. I want to send a message. Thor and Edvald are worthy cyclists, but with an amazing result, I can make thousands of Norwegian children happy, and they will cycle to the top.
AG: Yes! The Norwegian cyclists! Tell me about your talent team!
BD: I'd love to. The team is called the Deinoff Talent team. I'm getting sponsored by SAS and TV2. And together we will try to get those young cyclists to the top.
AG: You are 29 now, what will you do in 10 years?
BD: In 10 years, I will have a full-time role and spend all my attention on the talent team.
AG: That's an interesting concept. Can you name some cyclists of yours?
BD: I will let these fella's in anonimity.
AG: That's it, time's up. Thank you for this interview, I wish you good luck.
BD: My pleasure.
This was Anders Gudjohnsen reporting for cyclingNews. I wish you a good day.
~Anders

Thank you for your comment . So close, indeed.
@All, you can ask your questions to Ben (or others) by sending me a PM. When I've received 5 questions, I will make another interview/Q&A.
