Two riders who often find themselves on the ground. The opening road stage of the Vuelta a Espana has been very rainy and sketchy, Primoz Roglic and Geraint Thomas have both already hit the ground.
The crash took place with 32 kilometers to go in a roundabout. The duo, which finished first and second in the overall classification at the Giro d'Italia, have both gone down but without meaningful consequences seemingly.

- " I do not want to insinuate doubts, but.." Oldest backhanded comment in the books. It's not Pog's fault that all the French riders are currently crap.ScottG09-04-2025
- What initially looked like a very clever move by Alex Aranburu to win the stage turned out to be a 'too good to be true' moment. To be fair to him though, the race organizers did a pretty terrible job of blocking off that side of the roundabout.
santiagobenites09-04-2025 - Your last point is the most important one to consider. A riders data is private for a reason, and it's obvious that the reason that riders don't openly share it is to not give away any vital information that could benefit the competition.santiagobenites09-04-2025
- Why just Pogacar, when he highlights the superb results of others annd compares it to 5 years ago (when carb-based feeding was treated differently, for whatever that is worth). Imagine asking Vingegaard, who recovered incredibly quickly from his awful injury. His climbing times were better than ever before. Does that mean he’s doing something nefarious? I doubt it. But I am pretty sure he had some TUEs that aided his recovery. I am okay with that, like I’m okay with using the cars to come back after a mechanical. If transparency is asked for, it should be asked for more broadly. That gives away a competitive advantage so it’s never going to happen.RidesHills09-04-2025

- This guy is a loser. Innocent until proven guilty. I’m not naive but this is insulting to the rider.mij09-04-2025
- This will be the hardest test he's had in the one day classics, I think he could win it one day, maybe even now, but it's doubtful.awp09-04-2025
