The cycling world remains in mourning today after the heartbreaking news of Gino Mäder's passing. As races continue, grief-stricken riders throughout the peloton have been paying tribute. One such example came from Simon Pellaud.
The 30-year-old of the Tudor Pro Cycling Team is a two-time runner-up at the Swiss national championships. After attacking ahead of the main bunch at the Tour of Slovenia, Pellaud had tears in his eyes as he made a heart shape and pointed a poignant finger to the sky. After he was then brought back into the peloton, Pellaud was given a pat on the back and comforted by his fellow riders.

- Oh, so now you know Pog better than he knows himself? Saying that when at the same time you can see an article quoting Pog saying “sometimes I don’t know why I attack” and not ever analysing emotions as men tend to is really rather naive and reductive. Hardly worth wasting our planet’s energy and ressources for. How about elevating the discussion to think over things a bit deeper?Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- They couldn’t convict him criminally because he paid up to escape it (that weird American possibility that ensures not all are equal before the law). He was convicted civilly but technically for committing crime. I on the other hand live in a country where unexplained damage to a baby in your care in theory leads to minimum 5 years of prison, if you admit an accident it’s more lenient but telling the truth that you don’t know how a bump on the skull happened exposes you to the as much risk as some who murder and rape. The developed world doesn’t deserve that designationMistermaumau20-11-2024
- Doesn’t deserve criticism considering all he won with all the crashes plus how close he got to a TdF (Pog had luck). If Pog and Jonas battle and wipe each other out we have Remco and Primoz to put on a show.Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- Agreed. Until he can stay upright on his bike, he’s at best an incomplete for a grade. That doesn’t mean that on his best form he can’t win it all. We just haven’t seen it.mij20-11-2024
