- I think at that age, you take anything attractive you can get, you hope you can learn more from the best and you expect you can deal with things until the best retire, then the reality of relational complications catch up with you, you are up against older more experienced strategists and things don’t go as imagined, just ask anyone who’s married, in a relationship or has kids, human interactions are unpredictable
- Can you be more specific, recovery from what, pneumonia? The fatigue of having to perform at a top level more months a year than just about any other known rider? He did pretty well upping this year’s pace to make sure Tadej & Jonas have to ride at record speeds to podium.
- How do you explain what stupid means to stupid people? It’s like writing instructions for people who can’t read.
And don’t tell me there aren’t stupid people, if you don’t know any personally just follow news in any country for one week, the world is FULL.
From the guy who got sucked into an MRI machine to the one who sued a train conductor for saying good morning in more than one language, it’s best to set your memory to goldfish level in order to stay calm.
- Young riders with ambitions of GC glory should not be signing long term contracts in big teams like UAE or Visma.
- Van der Poel recovery is also not good. He should revisit focusing on the TDF especially the Pogi Jans rivalry where they go hammer and tongs at each other
- Pogi has been dominant for last 5 years in everything, all terrains. Anybody wanting to goto UAE should understand that Pogi will gobble up most lucrative. Ayuso's team knew this already. Young riders should not sign long term contracts in big teams like UAE or Visma
- Too late for that now
- It wouldn’t be the first controversial contract breaking and it is often and easily suggested for others, so, yeah, why not? But then, why not Tudor, Bora or a French team? He may decide he can forego his current salary if he gets the freedom he obviously would enjoy.
- In retrospect, I’m not even sure family was the cause for “lack” of enthusiasm for team training or if family was just an easy to explain excuse for not feeling the team being totally behind the tdf win. Who can say if that altitude camp he skipped on was a must for performance anyway? Mads refuses any and does great without, nobody knows or has checked how Jonas was training whilst his team buddies were mountain bonding. Perhaps he was doing even more hours against Danish winds than they on sunny slopes, for sure he wasn’t drinking beers on the couch in front of a tv, that doesn’t get you to 2nd with a big margin on 3rd in the Tour.
- Love it lol
