- Yesprobably as eddy was a doped rider like most of the peleton then . I would be suprisedif any race was won clean by eddy.
- Thank you for the humourous comment. From now on, I'll let it rip lest shitty ideas escape my mouth. Oops, I just ripped one out while writing this comment.
- chapeau to greg!
hope he can talk MVDP into triathlon after mathieu is done with road and cx.
- The 78-year-old ignorant geezer De Vlaeminck is a hypocrite. Clearly he deserves nothing but derision if not plain ridicule. He's a laughing-stock for his hypocrisy and stupidity. He may be old, but he can not be respected because his words are deliberately, consciously and calculatedly mean.
- Plus cross is super watchable. Frankly a lot more TV friendly than road racing.
- There’s cross all over. Other countries just have to up their game. And Olympic inclusion would be a major spark.
Also there are other two country sports in the Winter Olympics - women’s hockey. Actually men’s hockey too in the early days
- He raced fabulously well and should regret nothing. That late stumble was what it was, the race itself was great.
- as for Remco lifting his bike, cycling is based on a sponsorship model. it is expected that these guys bow before their bikes, lift them, etc. there is no cycling w/o sponsorship, so they gotta do it.
Mathieu is amongst the best at what he does, which might be limited as a non-GC rider, but he is amazing at his specialties. hard one day races.
Tadej is w/o comparison. Yes, Eddy, won more races, but Tadej is on par with him for the big races. remove the track races and rando crits that Eddy did, and he does not have nearly 500 plus victories.
who is better, Eddy or Tadej? we’ll never know as they will never race each other.
but RDV is an a-hole for coming after riders like this. it is a small sport with a fragile financial model. they should be supporting each other and the next generation, not tearing it apart. what a dick.
- I’d still love to see it included, it could kick start cross elsewhere, as the Belgians and Dutch won’t be able to load up.
- I think he will excel with Bora and not wilt to the pressure, whether he beats Tadej or Jonas is a different story. I was just replying to the article stating the difference in the teams
