- Ridiculous... that's not a quote. How would it be if it says 03/08/2025 but says that Vingegaard had conquered the Giro and Vuelta? At that point, he only had 2 Tours
Rafionain-Glas07-08-2026 - This is pretty amazing to watch!RidesHills07-08-2026
- Vollering and Reusser are doing a Carapaz vs del ToroRafionain-Glas07-08-2026
- It's easy enough to look up his numbers and do some work on wikipedia or procyclingstats: He's tied with Rominger, Nibali, and Heras at 4 grand tour wins. That puts him in a tie for 13th most grand tour wins of all riders. The 21st century riders ahead of him are Contador (7), Froome (7), Pogačar (6), and Roglič (5). Binda, Bartali, and Gimondi are tied with Roglič at 5. Indurain and Coppi are tied with Contador and Froome at 7. Anquetil (8), Hinault (10), and Merckx (11) are at the top of the list, to nobody's surprise. It is impressive and worth celebrating that Vingegaard is one of only 16 people to win 4 or more grand tours.RidesHills07-08-2026
- I wish Jonas the best too ofcourse and ur right but in terms of cycling its not the best when ur hearth isnt in it that much anymore. All i meant.miguel07-08-2026
- Well, I guess you haven't heard much. I will only show you this one example, but there are more: Cycling news, 03. August 2025: "Jonas Vingegaard’s frustration highlights the modern era of Grand Tour racing: even when the Dane breaks his own historical power records and climbs faster than ever, Tadej Pogačar continues to elevate the ceiling of the sport, leaving rivals asking what more is physically possible. For Vingegaard, the barrier is no longer about improving his own fitness or preparation, having checked boxes like winning the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta, but finding an tactical weakness in an opponent who responds to record numbers with even higher ones."PogiSloFans07-08-2026
- Yeah, it also gets me thinking about how Vingegaard fits into the realm of great riders? There is no way we can compare him to Pogi. When it comes down to one week and three week stage races, Pogi prevails, and the story ends. Pogi also has numerous wins in one day races (13 monuments) and others, plus WC and EC... The Triple Crown... many time records on various climbs etc.PogiSloFans07-08-2026
- Really? First I've heard.Renz07-08-2026
- I don't think he cares much. This information is publicly well known.PogiSloFans07-08-2026
- Now this is also true. If I were Jonas, I would retire. Jonas has more than enough money to do so, and yes, he has a lovely family he loves very much, always kissing his wedding ring and the picture of his family on his handle bars. Why risk getting hurt even more... always mentally and physically exhausted. He will go down in history as a big and great cyclist.PogiSloFans07-08-2026
