- Tadej Pogačar-Pogi is increasingly considered the Greatest of All Time - GOAT after his dominating 2024, 2025 season and early 2026 wins, with many arguing his versatility across Monuments and Grand Tours overshadows modern and older competitors. While some fools insist he must still match Eddy Merckx’s total records, his performance at age 27 is unmatched in history. As of late 2025 and early 2026, he had secured multiple Tour de France titles and over 100 race wins, putting him ahead of Merckx’s pace at the same age.
Purists (like Rafionain-Glas and Mistermaumau) argue he needs more wins (e.g. Vuelta and Paris-Roubaix) and greater longevity to surpass Merckx’s total record, but that's total BS. I know Pogi haters and fools disagree, but with the way Pogacar is riding, especially after his last two seasons, THE TWO BEST SEASONS IN CYCLING HISTORY.
How long do we really wait before calling him the real GOAT? He’s won basically everything and he’s only 27. Compare that to Merckx or Hinault, he’s not just winning, he’s playing with the competition. Yes, Merckx is the obvious answer historically only because he won more races (some times doped). But with Pogacar we are witnessing a new standard, the redefinition of cycling? Ad acta!!!
- Pogačar is powered by the fact that he finds it fun - cycling is a game to him. But it won't be that way for too long, because now there are more young riders looking to break in than any time before in his career (Ayuso, Lipowitz, del Toro, Seixas, Pellizzari etc.) Unlike Vingegaard and van der Poel, they push much harder.
Soon it won't be a game, it won't be fun.
That's why he needs to make it fun - by doing CX. Road cycling is fun when you set your best numbers, or when you drop everyone - these are effects, not the actual riding. With CX the actual riding is fun. Pogačar has significant experience in CX at the amateur level, though he stopped 3 years ago.
- He just has a strop and quits when it doesn't go his way, so normal for him not to be there at the end.
- I think you let the man be himself and do what he wants, he get 5 and steps away cycling loses its biggest marketable asset right now.... Mind you "Old cycling" France, Belguim etc etc would love him to stop... It would give them a slightly higher fraction of a chance to win!
- To complete his record:
Paris-Roubaix ( to complete the monument collection),
Vuelta (to complete the Grand Tour collection),
Itzulia (to complete the major 7 collection, assuming he wins Romandie and Suisse this year)
To extend and break the records
2x Tour de France
2x De Ronde van Vlaanderen
2x Liège-Bastogne-Liège
1x Il Lombardia
2x World Championships
Far fetched goals:
7x Milano-Sanremo
5x Paris-Roubaix
5x Giro
5x Vuelta
- He only needs Paris-Roubaix and the Vuelta and he's done everything? i think.. unless he starts on the minor stuff as well 🙃
- Which monument and which grand tour should he win?
WTF??
- I saw that too. surprised he wasn’t able to take greater advantage for the win.
- There were a few situations where Remco had Landa by him an everybody else were isolated…
- Amazing result for Top Ganna. Love seeing that guy win.
