- You have these fools on camera, don't you? So what's the problem? Catch them and give them a fine of 10.000 euros... or one month in jail. They will never do it again.
- Jonas is a boring cyclist. Pogi where are you, the Italians want you back. You make every race exciting, if it'a a sprint, hilly or mountain, you make it interesting. We want the Slovenian "shark"... not the Danish "anchovy."
- Funnily enough, the Japanese name transcripted as Jīro, meaning 'second son', is pronounced similar to to Giro, as is well known.
I think it's overdoing it to have a Japanese Grande Partenza. Raise the status of the Tour of Japan instead. The Giro is the Giro, the Tour is the Tour and the Vuelta is the Vuelta. I don't think a flight in any Grand Tour should be longer than two hours
- Ciccone always has been a GC rider
- What about a one-week tour that is never in the same country twice. Then you can have a race that spends the whole time in one place, wherever it is on the globe - and the riders only have to deal with travelling there and back before and after all the racing is done. And leave the national tours to happen inside those countries. Instead of this Grand Depart nonsense where they have to go all the way to wherever for three days and then come back again. I suppose if the UCI and whoever owns the Tour etc didn't have a stranglehold on the big races, maybe they'd end up doing a cycling version of F1 and fly the riders around the globe all year.
- He’d start on Mars with Musk if he could. Sport should really start to question itself a bit.
- Is it just perception or is it now impossible to see a pro race without a crash?
- Red Bull use this one simple trick: you won't believe what happens next! Visma Lease-A-Bike hate him!
- Congratulations, Afonso! Respect! Great bike riding, your mtb roots came in handy today! I won't say Bota Lume, but I'll say "Carrega, Figueira!!"
- Prioritizing the Tour de France over the Giro remains the industry standard. Aside from those rare years when heavy hitters attempt the trio, or the elusive Triple Crown, this hierarchy is the norm.
Jonas does not deserve to be described as ‘second team’ status, however. For the last 5 years, he’s been on the Tour podium, and won 2 of those. His riding style is different to what we’re used to with Tadej, I fully anticipate him to take the Pink jersey, with ease, in the mountains.
