- Another thing, really surprised Tadej raced on his aero bike, he must really like it.
- I couldn't believe what I witnessed today, Visma destroyed themselves on the Soulor, no help for Jonas on Hautacam, not that they really could have helped much.
I guess they figured Tadej would stiff as board from his crash yesterday, interesting tactics. Tadej seems to be the best he's ever been while Jonas is sliding backwards a little.
Remco reminded me of a prime Valverde today, with him losing contact and then climbing back on to have a decent finish.
I wonder if Tadej makes it through unscathed and the winner of this Tour, what will his margin be to second place? It could be massive. I'm thoroughly entertained, let's keep it rolling boys!
- More unwanted advice on this site from an ex-doper!
- Stage 11 regrets? Give me a break...he got crushed today and in the first TT. Probably again tomorrow so stage 11 is not going to haunt him!
- Jonas, I hope you're pissed. I hope you have regrets not having run your Stage 11. I hope you are freaking angry and come our swinging. Nice guys finish last. Be mean, just for this Tour de France. Nothing beats a failure but a try. Hold your head up hi. We❤️ you!
- Evidence? Naming EPO specifically calls for evidence, where general calls of “Armstrong!” do not. Given a whole peloton on new methods (nutrition and training regimens) and corresponding times, why single him out? Where’s the A- level guy using these methods to catch up, getting caught? All ears for the evidence that is actual evidence.
- Lipowitz is something special and no matter where he ends up (second? fourth?) we’ve seen it this year.
- Vingegaard has been caught out by a less than perfect spring, the concussion interrupting the prep needed to succeed, his strong team fading around him after spending so many days attacking. They’ve collectively been the Pogacar of ‘22 and he by himself (with AYates and Narvaez delivering the red carpet) the Jumbo Visma of that year.
- There are plenty of overhyped European riders and pundits on here shooting their mouths off..
- Visma's plan of "attack Pog a lot" might seem like a good idea, but shockingly enough, it really tires the attacking riders out. Then the rider that hasn't been attacking will really make them pay for it.
Hats off to them for trying something against a guy who might end up being the greatest of all time, but there's a reason why so much of cycling is about saving, not spending, energy.
