It doesn’t help that the translation into English isn’t done by native speakers but then few native English speakers know other languages well enough to translate ;-)

Sometimes I really think that things get lost in translation. Every little detail of a riders season, preparation, and racing tactics is carefully calculated to provide optimum performance. Of course, how one feels on the bike is something that needs to be added to the overall equation as well.

what? The exception does not invalidate the rule: you, in the vast majority of situations, are calculated and guided in detail by your sporting director, little or no-initiative of your own. It is not offensive at all, it is simply your style.

Good luck Bradley. I'm glad you are in a better place. The 2012 tour was fantastic for us. We were there at Bonneval to watch you getting focused for the time trial. You sealed the overall of the tour on that stage. We set out on the long drive home to Scotland later tha day in a very happy mood. Great memories!

He attacked Pogi after he saw him crashed and then Connor Swift stopped for quit sometime. He slow when he can't take some more time and Pogi blitztering his pace like a mad man to catch Swift then drop him after and that's the time he realized he will NOT beat Pogi in all races even he crashed.

He already is the GOAT. Merckx rode decades ago when the sport was far less professional and the opposition weaker. You might as well say Djokovic is approaching Rod Laver or Messi is getting near to Stanley Matthews. If a sport advances and you are at the top, you are the GOAT.
