- Remember in the 2024 Tour, Tadej, Jonas and Remco reset many of the big mountain climbing records. On mountains that Armstrong once dominated he isn't even in the top ten recorded times.
And I'm not saying they are doping, although they are probably using some techniques that will be considered doping in the future. But this is to say that Remco can climb. That said, I think Paul seixas will leapfrog him this next year.
Remco has had the problem of being in one of the deepest fields in the history of cycling. His numbers show he should have won at least a single grand tour a year without Tadej and Jonas being there. Now he is about to find out Paul Seixas might be as good as Tadej as he continues to develop. Remco may never win another grand tour and that is crazy.
- no one climbed like him years ago. and it is bs that he got better and better before his crash. he was not even able to hold the young guns at a distance anymore. he was in front at the beginning of the long climbs and then got reeled in. in 2027 he is another year older. this might not be the biggest issue. but the younger riders will have one year more experience and 25000 km more in the legs and be stronger than last year. so i stand with what i said, jonas will no way come in 2nd in next year's tdf.
- i admit that he might focus on giro and/or vuelta and not even ride the tour. we will find out.
- The TDF organisers choice of the route more or less settles the winner(s). For the sake of publicity and money they prefer larger nations and of course France to be favored. Now we suddenly, out of nowhere, have 2 time trials, and none of these is a mountain time trial. Obviously it favour Seixas and Remco massively. TDF is becoming increasingly political and money focused. Shame on the organisers.
- Yeah, this is ridiculous. No one alive climbs like Jonas and Pog knows it. TT will come back this year. Remco will not be in the top 4
- Dont even need to be a fan of him or them to understand they developed pogacar into the greatest cyclist ever, easily too. If anyone say what you say, its just fanboys w/to much emotions and free time dont worrie. Del toro overall development and status overall now is mighty impressive too. Just a ridiclous team
- So are all the Lance-haters going to show up and point out that these guys were all doped to the gills during the EPO era?
(not sure about the last one)
- More pile-on from the usual suspects. Cycling is too hard.
- You're saying: "(pogi best ever...and del toro..) ... Good years ahead, cycling is great now."
I think the same. Pogi is most likely the greatest cyclist of all time, but we have many many fools, also on this site, saying that Pogi is boring, he's making cycling "boring"??? I can't believe what's comming out of their deteriorating bad breath mouths. So I guess Merckx, Hinault, Indurain, Fasto Coppi and Anquetil were also boring at their time!?!?
PS: Many cycling fans that think that way, have to get a brain scan. Medication nowadays is quite advanced.
- That's also true.
