- Thank you for that, makes it easier to all use the same figures even though of course these have to be taken with a lot of salt.
- You miss the point, and as for your frog, wirey legs, huge body, not the most appropriate comparison.
Again, going back to the original claim that someone like MVDP's 10 extra kg is mostly muscle is contradicted by population weight/height comparisons, which are incredibly informative as based on huge data sets and distinct for almost every country.
If you are REALLY interested in discussing the matter, please first look up Slovenian and Dutch growth curves for men as background info even if we discuss it using global averages.
I would even go as far as stating that PROPORTIONALLY, Tadej has more muscle mass than MVDP
- Unless it's football or peanuts, sponsors only look for proven value. Cycling being a niche sport, anything other than the TDF doesn't justify high expenditure in French corporate eyes. For French money he basically has to show himself at the Tour so exploitable populism can start. He doesn't need to win but content is needed to make stories and dreams, the vast majority of consumers still have no idea he exists.
- That’s right. The Godfather. One of the most iconic movie quotes ever.
Good clip there 👌🏻
- in the last 20 years of racing, a NON-EXTENSIVE list of racing deaths:
Isaac Gálvez
Bruno Nevez
Thomas Casarotto
Wouter Weylandt
Antoine Demoitié
Daan Demyngheer
Gijs Verdick
Chad Young
Casey Saunders
Mathieu Riebel
Stef Loos
Robbert Degreef
Bjorg Lambrecht
Gino Mäder
André Drege
Muriel Furrer
Samuel Privitera
And before you go claiming obscureness, these were all PRO road cyclists during racing, there are many more if you count track, endurance, para and other disciplines or pro/am racing.
- Yes.Pogacar has no experience racing in difficult terrain.What in God's name are you smoking????
- To be honest, it’s pretty obvious. Pogi doing Roubaix because he needs a challenge isn’t news.
- Good luck with the recovery Micheal.
- Did Mou say this: “Yes I think Pogacar is the best cyclist in history. The guy is so bored that he says to himself: ‘I’ll go and ride Roubaix because I want a challenge’. He needs to challenge himself. At a certain point, he gets bored. He comes to Roubaix knowing he can’t win.”
Oh really, Mou didn't say it? Oh yeah, the former professional French sprinter Arnaud Demare said it. If Mou said it, he wolud get backlash again for being a Pogi fanatic. Eat your hearts out and suffer...I'm LOL !!!
- Also Giro was >2 km/h faster than the Tour last year but that's immaterial
