- If you believe in free-range, no GMO food. If you believe that game management of certain species, like deer, requires hunting (which it does, unless we have a major re-introduction of predators like wolves and bear and cougars), unless we double the roadkill, then faux abhorrence of hunting is a manifestation of tribal ignorance. In your opinion, would it be better to outlaw firearms in hunting and just go back to stampeding animals off cliffs, like our ancestors once did?
- I never implied that it was illegal - quite the opposite!
- Love this podium, I remember Tour de l'Avenir 2018, Tadej and Arensman were kids.
First Tadej, second Arensman (today reverse) and third the dear Gino Mader.
- Both are overdoing things. Having been at many races of all levels, it’s a miracle things don’t happen more often, spectators, riders, bikers, drivers, ALL guilty of naivety and ignoring all others at times. Too many seem to consider every space is reserved for them once they feel they have a purpose there.
- Rebuilding would mean they must evaluate their budget.
- A 50+ million budget team not even in the top 5 GC of any GTs is not success especially when they have won a lot of GTs in the past their recruitment also tends to be for helper riders like Tobias Foss which is a waste of money when they donot have a leader to win GC
- Regardless of what they were, they are very different now.
- Part of being a dumbass...
- That doesn’t work the same way for everyone, a small team with no expectations and nothing to lose obviously has more chance of looking successful than a big team with history going downhill.
- There are lots of ways to reap the rewards of a GT without being on the podium. EF has made a successful venture of doing this. Their sponsors receive a lot of value without having to spend very much in relation to UAE or Visma.
I understand what your saying though, if they rebuild in the next few years with a quality rider like a Lipowitz, they could do something. Tadej has about four to five more years before he is done, in fact his contract ends in 2030 and he has said that might be it for him. Jonas is two years older than Tadej so I give him about the same time if not less.
