- Ah pundits….those who cannot do, fill air time and column inches criticizing those who can…
Eddy Merckx wins all the races…cycling is boring and sucks now
- Boring to see a generational talent in your own life time? We should all feel privileged to see it. I certainly do. I feel the same when I see other once in a life time amazing guys in other fields rewriting the record books: Magnus Carlsen in chess and Shoei Ohtani in baseball. And the way they carry themselves.. humble and respected by their peers adds to their appeal.
- As a current or ex crosser, you should be asking yourself 'what is VDP doing that I'm not', instead of bellyaching that he's winning everything. It's not boring for me to watch an athlete, at the pinnacle of their career, absolutely pulverised the opposition. Whether it be Tiger Woods, Usain Bolt, Roger Federer or indeed our own Tadej Pogacar. Are cyclists really such a bitter breed that we see excellence as boring? Personally, I'm in absolute awe.
Here's a question for Mr Wellens, how long will it take before Thibaut Nys becomes boring, after VDP has hung up his wheels?
- Monotonous? Boring?
Pundit?
WTF?
- What a backwards step for this team. First the signing of Ayuso and now every chance of Derek Gee.
- and also let’s hope he doesn’t have a wife that goes off on the team and riders.
- with all due respect to Welsford, what has he won to deserve the title “ace”. he is there in many sprints, but other than some nationals and maybe a 3rd tier race, he isn’t exactly a feared sprinter in the peloton.
of course with the right team he could become a winner, but is Ineos the right team? Unlike a Quick-Step, Ineos is not exactly sprinter friendly. they don’t have a track record of developing winners at sprinting.
- Let's hope that he doesn't throw his tantrums on his teammates at Visma.
- Hopefully it's for more money than his previous year. That said, he also knows that 2 even younger riders with a potentially higher ceiling could replace him. So he's still fortunate to be part of a team that wins.
- No mention to their best cyclist? Paul Magnier. Save my words.
