- Kind of the best time for it ;-)
- Very impressive today, promising for the rest of the season.
- Roglic mirrored so many of his wins, but in GC: wait until the end, then pull a strong win from a tight group. What a great performance, a solo ride (so rare for him), and now he’s got over 90 wins. Amazing rider.
- Proud to say I watched the race (Milan Sanremo 2025) live in Australia... at 12:30am-3:00am! No regrets!
- Great picture, so alike and yet so different, Mads has the physique of a weekend amateur in comparison. You have to wonder how much better he could still be.
I know it’s difficult not to be taken in by MVDP’s performances but it feels like reporting loses some of its purpose as a result, compared to other teams, we hardly hear about the Alpecin in-race work or riders.
- agreed. flanders is a beast. i like tadej, but i’m full on rooting for mathieu next sunday.
- Indeed, strong as ever on the flat, maybe stronger on climbs. There are very few records within reach for contemporary riders (Cabendish had to extend his career to get his and took twice as long as Merckx to equality), this would be one that would be very hard to take away.
- I thought newspeak was condensing any statement into the smallest number of pertinent words.
- flanders is mvdp’s favorite race and he’s one win away from being the lone record holder with 4 wins. i’d be very surprised if the gap that pogačar opened in him there 2 years ago wasn’t THE major focus of all his training. and when mathieu has a goal, he turns himself inside out to achieve it. we’ll see next week if he got there, but i’d agree with van avermat’s assessment of van der poel’s fitness.
- It’s almost like newspeak. It’s classics season, Pogacar’s main rival has always been van der Poel. Then grand tour season will begin, and we will pivot mid sentence and Pogacar’s main rival will have always been Vingegaard. What a season this promises to be. Let’s hope they stay healthy (and Vingegaard gets past the concussion).
