- If Mads won a monument I'd agree he deserves it but I'd give it to Jonas
- “I remember a phase in the final stage of the Dauphine in June,” he explained. “After a lot of climbing we came into a valley with an elite group. I looked around and there were three or four guys from Red Bull in our group. And I thought: ‘Man, I’m sitting here completely alone. And they’re riding around here with four guys.’” - if you can't beat 'em, join 'em...
- As controversial as RdV himself?

- This is the question everyone seems to want to answer. What’s strange is that NOBODY asks what would have happened if an earlier Tadej had been born around WWII and had to live like and with what was available back then, no money, no training camps, no svouts, no support, no security, no team. He probably wouldn’t even be cycling.
Very hard to transpose anything in time. All of us who ride are faster than any of the first decades of Tour winners.
As for those always claiming it was easier to dominate back in the day, there is this weird contradiction because if you look at sport in general and ask people to name the most dominant, it will just about always be « modern « day personalities. How come apart from maybe Ali, nobody was dominating other sports in the old days?
PS Happy NY to all and a great season to all those who ride.
- Ce n’est pas le volume mais la qualité qui compte. Le cyclisme était un sport MAJEUR dans le passé, aujourd’hui presque niche. L’élite des 6 (une douzaine au moins en réalité) est tout à fait comparable à la masse globale minimale actuellement. En italie par ex. il y’a probablement plus de compétitivité aujourd’hui en tennis qu’en cyclisme.
