- WvA says it right as always, great guy better then MvdP anyhow 👍
leedorney24-05-2025 - I just finished watching his post stage interview, the more I see of him the more I like him, he showed empathy towards Ayuso which is a sign he has great character. I know he can climb, I don't know if he can climb like the rest of the gc challengers but I'm pulling for him!awp24-05-2025
- He won every jersey in the 2023 Tour de l'Avenir. He won stage 6, a HC finish 23.2Km @ an average of 7.4%. He was 3rd in the stage 7 mountain time trial. If he gets the okay, I think he might be able to win this race.awp24-05-2025
- Yes, Remco may not have won as many Gt's but he is a much more well rounded cyclist than Froome was at his best. I'm also not disrespecting Froome, he is a legend but he won only one type of race.awp24-05-2025
- And there it is, hopefully Isaac del Toro can win the whole thing at 21.awp24-05-2025
- Maybe you are overrating GT GC?Mistermaumau24-05-2025
- No, but now he’s started considering it at least. Maybe they were smart enough to propose a family holiday so he couldn’t use not wanting to be separated as an excuse? He’s a bit like Vingo when it comes to priorities, Vingo being the only one who gets shit for it even though there was someone doing pretty much the same not so long ago who never got any stick for it.Mistermaumau24-05-2025
- Agreed, there’s still a big difference between hanging on behind and staying ahead. Sure he’s improved enormously but he needs them to have a really bad day to beat them in anything but tve most favourable terrain.Mistermaumau24-05-2025
- PCS overates the other races. How is Remco Evenepoel that close to Froome? His palmares is nowhere close to Froomeabstractengineer24-05-2025
- Kind of weird that he didn't do altitude. Is he still not doing altitude camp?
