  Another unbelievable excuse came during the Giro dell'Emilia'24. He claimed something got in his eye, then he couldn't finish. My friend from Bologna was in the crowd and told me he was crying with frustration (Pogacar dropped him on the climb to San Luca). Remco's problem is that he refuses to be "just" a great champion; he wants to be Mertz or more than Mertz

  I’m afraid Almeida’s time has come, and gone. He’s had chances to win more but with the strength of the new crop of youngsters, there’ll be little left for him to pick up. He’s just a slightly more aggressive Sepp Kuss, born to assist.

  Just as circumstantial as market manipulation by the too big to shut ups these days. There’s are only very limited resources to follow up everything and so more and more people realise the risk isn’t that high

  Mediocre TT for Almeida relative to his usual. Seixas definitely proving he is the real deal here.

  It does not take a genius to know that the intended recipient is Soler but again evidence is circumstantial

  The aircon in his room was not working but it was working in the other teammates rooms right. The team would give the lesser rider that room while Remco their leader, their savior slept peacefully in the arms of the aircon. Sometimes the excuses beggar belief

  Top 6-10 for him is more realistic than podium but well see if he can stay on the favourites atop double Alpe d'Huez ascent.

  I was going to post the same comment. He just can’t catch a break.
• Pedalmasher20-02-2026
  Totally agree. This kid has a bright future.

  The thing is, he never has to worry about his career because he can spend the rest of his life living rent-free in your head.
