Letting Them Know CD21-27
It may be old school, but the chalkboard is still used to let the riders know what the time gaps are between the groups on the road. The peloton has been chasing the large break away since the start of the day. With 30 kilometers left to race it is useful to know just how close the escapees are. And, yes, the team cars, the race radios, and GPS kind of make this relic unnecessary. But I doubt it will disappear anytime soon.
