Preview stage 3. The Volta ao Algarve takes place from the 14 to the 18 of February and is an event that provides opportunities for sprinters, climbers, classics riders and time-trialists.
The third day of the race will be the second bunch sprint, very likely. The stage will finish in the city of Tavira once again by the sea and should be a very fast affair.

- My daughter coaches in a different sport and I am constantly amazed at her stories where she just /sees/ the way an athlete is doing something wrong and how they can do the particular thing they need to do better. It’s as if her eyes work in slow motion. She uses film to help them see it as well, coaches them on how to turn this way here, bend that way there, angle this joint in this fashion, use this muscle differently at this moment - someone with that vision is incredible. In her first year of coaching a new team, half her athletes have reached new personal records or school records. All this is to say that I’m not surprised that Jorgensen (or Pogacar, or others) gets better with a new trainer/coach/biomechanical genius to help them improve. It’s amazing what the right eyes can do.RidesHills30-12-2024
- A wonderful rider and I’m really glad to read that Voigt champions her. She’s been a rider of such dominance for so long that people seem to forget, except how can you after such a long and illustrious career?RidesHills30-12-2024
- This is the kind of thing that more people should say about Armstrong. He f’ed it up in a big way, leading others and bullying too many along the way. He broke cycling so that people still turn their backs on it.RidesHills30-12-2024
- look, as far as i’m concerned, lance can talk about whatever the hell he wants to talk about, as long as he’s not giving instructions on how to separate anthrax spores or build a fissionable weapon out of your cell phone. with lance as with most everyone and everything, the marketplace of ideas will decide his legacy, and whether or not he has one. that’s a-ok by me.OCexile30-12-2024
- Yes, Jeannie Longo.. another GREAT, great cyclist. Got to see her race a few times in Chicago where I was racing, mostly. So unbelievably fit when standing next to her competition. With all the doping accusations around that time I only hope it wasn't true for her as well.
TRjens30-12-2024 - Hey, kudos to him but sorry, he’s also showing a complete lack of real sport awareness. He speaks of GOATS then tries to equate everything but at the same time ignoring whatever he’s not interested in. So basically he’s trying to promote cycling to the level of a megasports and demote every other sport to a lesser level by not mentioning anyone considered a GOAT in minor sports. Showing a real interest in sport or GOATs should be a prerequisite to lumping together arbitrarily but, yes she is definitely a cycling GOAT and yet, I’d hesitate to place her above Jeannie Longo, I mean we’re talking 38 world records, 4 Olympic medals including one gold, 26 WC medals including 13 golds, 3 Tdff wins, twice 2nd, 23 stage wins plus countless others for a grand total of 1157 wins! And yet, she’s hardly EVER mentioned. As for other total dominators in sport, (An)Toni Bou, another complete unknown.Mistermaumau29-12-2024
- So, had he stayed alive, you’d also have defended giving Adolf a platform to discuss war tactics, is that what we are to understand? Not sure this is off-topic but it seems more and more Wiggins was tricked into being an accessory to try revamp someone’s reputation.Mistermaumau29-12-2024
- Why is Madoff in jail and others just get a warning, why do you get a fine for exceeding the speed limit and your licence taken away if it’s double with alcohol and causing an accident. Do you seriously not see differences in scale when comparing?Mistermaumau29-12-2024
- History (and present times) of cycling is full of dopers. Some of them are even Eurosport experts. Why Lance should be banned and they not?mikolajjj29-12-2024
- You cannot, and should not try to erase ANYTHING from history, it should be used to analyse, learn, teach, avoid making further mistakes. What we can do is find the right way to go about it and prevent those responsible from profiting from past wrongdoing in any way, be it monetary, reputational or whatever. Really the only thing he should be allowed to discuss, and for free, is doping in the way it might help catch others or prevent users.Mistermaumau29-12-2024
