- Talented, elegant rider. Enjoy your life, Simon! all the best.
- Always came across as a great human being, his interviews typically had him with this private smile, friendly but also amused at the whole situation, and his ability as a rider let us see him pretty often in those interviews. Two grand tours, a spectacular letdown in a third, and solid riding throughout his career. I've enjoyed watching him throughout his career, and wish him the best with what comes next. Also, what, only one Yates in the peloton? How can that be?!
- The oldest racket on Earth (in buisness) is convincing you that your cycling life( fill in a thousand other things) will approach pro level if you you buy their 15 pound titanium carbon rocket ship.The amount of fat ass 50 and 60 somethings riding these things is exactly the same as the old fart in a Ferrari trying to stave off father time with wads of cash.Good for Gaimon speaking about this weenie weight psychosis deliberately foistered on the consumer. Good for State as well.
- Congratulations to Simon on a fantastic career, and respect to him for choosing this time to retire.
- Out of the blue came this..
- Quite unfair to say this..
- He went at his very peak level achievement. But i think todays sport is shortening the life of a rider at the very top which except for some super responders or Talented riders not many can match
- Their mainstay is going to be Tim Merlier for sprint wins and others for some breakaway wins. They will not figure in the monuments or the GC GTs
- Remco although a great rider, he doesn't have the temperament of a champion. The moment he loses a race, he becomes negative and it hurts his chances. The only way he can win is if Pogi gets hurt.
- This decision seems to make it clear that Jonas is riding the Giro D'Italia. Simon obviously wanted to defend his title and wasn't able to.
