- What I want to know is how this turns up in “news”, did this guy contact media to sell them an “exclusive”? This is what I meant about cycling not having any discussion appeal outside hardcore fans.
- I always thought MvdP could've made a good stage racer cept he's gone down the Classics route
- There is a difference between spur of the moment mutually beneficial collaboration and predetermined collusion based on potential financial gains or if bad faith rider manipulation.
- Nah Movistar need more good riders. At this rate of their decline, soon they'll be fighting against relegation, and I'm not sure there's much they'll be able to do about it
- What's the ruling on riders from rival teams working together? Is it that whatever action is taken, it must be in the interests of both teams (crucially the teams, and not just the riders)?
- Who was the LiDL-TREK rider who paced Simon Yates on Colle delle Finestre, for a short while? I remember it was either Rob Hatch or Matt Stephens who pointed it out.
- Remco is physically built to be a time trialist & one day racer primarily. His incredible leg mass (#genetics) enables him to put out enormous power for his size but will always be a hindrance for climbing in the high mountains compared to Pog & Vin. If he can stop crashing he will go down as one of the greatest time trialists.
- Movistar wont take him, there is too much bad blood.
- Must have been a slow cycling news day to report on this
- In the mountains, sure, but he can do a lot of damage elsewhere. Ideal from a spectator pov would be Remco going for broke on tt and flat stages forcing Pog to chase and then when Pog and Vin attack each other in the mountains, Remco can ride his own pace without losing time, that way we could get a 3-way race.
