Who had the stupid idea to turn the Green Jersey mudgreen?

Isn't it part of the prestige of the leader jerseys that they stick out in the peloton?

Now the jersey almost looks like a military camouflage. They made it more difficult to find the green Jersey in the sprint train.

What are your go-to sources for race coverage this season? (lemmy.world)
 

What I love so much about pro cycling nowadays is how plentiful the resources in expert race analysis are and how deep the access is to the cyclists in the ground. Between YouTube Channels and podcasts, you can get alternative live coverage of a stage from the Lanterne Rouge YouTube channel or get race analysis in podcast form by current pros (and as was the case with Geraint Thomas at this year's Giro the actual GC leader of the race!).

The accompanying coverage has become a major part of my excitement of watching pro cycling.

So I was wondering: What YT channels, podcasts or else are you guys listening to or watching this season?

They sneakily turned around their signs when the camera was on them.

Does anybody have any background on this? Are there people in Bilbao who dislike the Guggenheim Museum so much that they protest it during a TdF stage?
