- I’d say there’s a 50% chance of a Remco/Wout/MVDP podium but won’t wet myself trying to attribute an order. 80% chance 2 of them medal. Again, not going to try to predict which 2Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- Yep, as far as I know, Pog only wins road cycling, doubt he’d win on the track or break the hour record, or do that well at any of the other cycling disciplines that get rainbow jerseys. I think Vos managed to collect 5 different ones.Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- At least you don’t have to pay attention to anyone or road clutter. Sometimes it’s more relaxing to be in front than surrounded by nervous movers. As for the peleton, I thought there was a chase group in between too? And in the end, nobody knows how deep he really went, he may have kept back a little in case of necessity.Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- Would have been so much more interesting to have them ride the elite course so we could discuss a second asterisk for PS not riding.Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- Ganna was not actually much better than the very young 4th nobody is speaking about, the crash kind of hides the reality, Remco is smaller, Jakob is younger, Paul is younger and not even a specialist, Ganna’s days of domination are slowly coming to an end, if not already over.Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- I would have a very good look at the aerodynamics of his upper body positioning compared to e.g. RE, seems to me he’s using far too many watts fighting against wind. We aren’t all born to slipstream so unless he’s prepared to start looksmaxxing, he’s not going to catch up now that all the youngsters are already being prepared for this discipline at an early age. It’s similar to swimming, if you don’t sculpt your profile for it very early on, your body will never naturally optimise for something so unnatural.Jumpyjohn22-09-2026
- That dryness snuck up on me like a silent assassin. Bravo @AndrewK, that was delivered beautifully, genuinely made me chuckle out loud.anonymouscyclist22-09-2026

- Did Horner somehow miss the Paris Olympics, Remco as the first man in history to sweep both the Road and TT gold? Doubting his ability by comparing this Sunday’s course to Rwanda is a bold choice. I’d liken this weekend's course to the Paris 2024 road race. Whilst the course is almost identical in length to the Paris Road course, it does include an extra 1000m elevation gain, with longer, steeper climbs. I’m confident Remco could podium this, but win? I’m hesitant to hedge my bets. I don’t think tired legs will be the main factor, but more a course that doesn’t entirely suit his unique repertoire. Who knows, but I’m looking forward to it. There are a few riders I’d like to see in the rainbow colours next year.anonymouscyclist22-09-2026
