- Chris Horner would say that none of that matters because he has Isaac del Toro
Rafionain-Glas11-05-2026 - however, his quotes tend to be taken out of context. he makes a point that the comparison is exaggerated, but everybody jumps on the comparison to armstrong and pretends that he said pogi = modern armstrong. on the other hand, of course he knows that this is going to happen and says it anyways ...Ketterechts11-05-2026
- I am not sure how one could conclude that Pogacar's TDF plans are not affected. Soler, Vine and Yates are usually in the TDF roster. I don't know if Tadej has won a tour without Marc Soler.Spike031111-05-2026
- Crazy... Magnier's sprint was about double my fresh one indoors... and Milan is an alienRafionain-Glas11-05-2026
- At the end of last season he had a farmer's calendar, but he still had to best some strong riders like Jordi Meeus, Pavel Bittner and Lukรกลก Kubiลก. Looking at their faces as they were defeated, their resignation was equal to what the riders who are behind Pogaฤar feel. And he had a picture of a Tyrannosaurus Rex on his jersey, which was quite fitting. Magnier is probably the most interesting sprinter now, and seeing him rack up wins is nothing short of impressive. Other teams feel that it is really unfair for Soudal Quick Step to have the two fastest sprinters on Earth. In my opinion, Magnier is a likeable character, but Seixas is not.Rafionain-Glas11-05-2026
- This new generation of superstars does seem to have so many genuinely likeable human beings. Top level cycling seems to be getting simultaneously more fierce and more humble. Or I'm just getting old.
MarkFour11-05-2026 - "Unfortunately in this sport you can do everything right, be in the right position, and still end up on the ground" Not exactly accurate hereRafionain-Glas11-05-2026
- I think if riders want to issue a publick komplaint about other riders they should learn their names first. It's hard to take someone seriously when they disrespect othersRafionain-Glas11-05-2026
- I don't really see a problem with a cobbled finishing straight; the riders take it into account and it makes the sprint more interesting. And I also don't see what's wrong with the racing - it has been interesting. The KOM battle with Sevilla and Tarozzi on the first day was interesting, and Polti are supporting Sevilla as much as possible with Maestri on stage 2 and Tonelli on stage 3. The GC battle ignited but did not explode, which is exactly what is best for the start of the Giro, as it makes you excited for what is to come. The sprint battle has been highly entertaining though the crashes were horrible. Seeing the breakaway caught on stage 3 with 400 m to go was gut-wrenching. And above all, seeing Guillermo Thomas Silva take the Maglia Rosa has been a brilliant story.Rafionain-Glas11-05-2026
- CyclingUpToTdate: "The opening three stages were incredibly dull, completely lacking intensity, unpredictability and any real sense of spectacle. From a sporting perspective, especially for cycling fans watching every kilometre, it often felt painfully sleepy." What I wrote two days ago: "The most boring stages and on the other hand, a freak show in Bulgaria. Cycling has officially stopped being a sport and has become a joke. The Bulgarian Balkan barbarians had hundreds of smoke flares, some were even throwing smoke bombs. Never seen in cycling until now (not at least in such a scale). They were acting like football hooligans, they have no respect for cycling, they have no cycling culture... "But no one died and the show must go on."... said the UCI bosses.๐ด๐ผ๐ด๐ผ๐ด๐ผ๐ด๐ผ๐ด๐ผM-cOnstitUtion11-05-2026
