- Well said again.
- *virtual clap* Well said GreatDane, excellent comment 😂
- In a sense, yes, the Tour always holds rank over the other GT's. However, historically the Giro has harder climbs than the Tour.
This Giro was not as hard as previous years, but the Tour this year is also not as hard. In the 2026 Tour they only break 2000 meters twice before finishing the second day (they finish there on Stage 19 and 20 ) on Alpe D'huez. I think that Jonas has his best chance this year, and maybe his last chance to win a Tour before father time catches up. I'm interested in watching Tadej at the Tour de Suisse in a few weeks and seeing where his form is as well.
- The last 13 Giros had 13 different winners. Not the same with the TDF.
- Jonas, you are one of the few cyclists who truly moves me. Your open display of emotion and gratitude, not only to your team, but your wife and children, is deeply touching, and consistently brings tears to my eyes.
His performance was a masterclass in tactical intelligence and heart. Achieving the ‘Triple Crown’ of Grand Tours is a monumental feat, and whatever the future holds, he will have already cemented his legacy as one of the true greats of cycling. This could not have gone to a more deserving rider.
I genuinely could not be happier for him.
- This always brings tears to my eyes. Jonas adores his family, and he doesn’t just pay lip service to their support, he genuinely lives it. For someone who has conquered the rare heights of multiple Grand Tour victories, a feat achieved by only eight in men’s cycling history, he consistently shows the world that his success is not only rooted in his team, but also his partner and children. While some criticize his open display of emotion, I have nothing but profound respect for it. He is a truly humble, kind, and beautiful human being.
Could not be happier for him.
Chapeau Jonas, truly, truly remarkable.
- Following that logic Pogacar wasn’t a true winner in 2024 because the rider level and the route were also very tame in 2024.
I think that both Pogacar and Vingegaard are true winners and can be very proud of their victories in the Giro.
- Good for Jonas, I figured he was the shoe in, that early sickness had me worried but he was able to overcome. Now onto the Tour!
- I guess Milan is not so much of a loser now... should have done the article AFTER the Giro
- I honestly don't see any true winners in this race. Jonas won as expected. But, many are saying that the rider level and the route were very tame compared to what has been the Giro d'italia recently
