Rideshills, you nailed it. Visma’s laissez-faire is what’s now cost Rogliç his 5 Vueltas (not that they care now he’s left). Kuss was a domestic and there was never any discussion of letting him win before the games started, he was there to prepare for a leader to take GC, his nationality probably played into pressure from loud voices calling for granting him the win (which is what ultimately happened as the other two held back for a fake result, don’t think anyone has ever been ALLOWED to win like that). Probably the fact PR already won the Giro and JV the Tour also played into the way of « solving » the situation. PR’s attitude is totally understandable, he’d already seen too many GC chances slip away through tiny errors of judgement and obviously wasn’t going to let another slip by lying down.02-05-2026 08:10

They will have thought of planting new trees then right? A more suitable type in light of warming and diseases affecting the historical species, otherwise we may see the whole road wash away in the next mudslide from increased rainfall on barren mountain tops. Often it seems those in charge of works only think in one dimension. Hopefully there won’t be a heatwave for riders now.02-05-2026 07:56

He’s actually more fragile than he shows and afraid of a few more riders, otherwise he’ dare to attack from other than the most obvious, predictable parts of races.02-05-2026 07:30

Silly question after his accident. Like asking a woman if she’s happy to see the father of her children being sent to war zones.25-04-2026 22:11

Totally get that, almost happened to me this week, not even a pothole, just an intact surface sunk into a hardly visible depression, not a good moment to reach for water. Always reminds me of Contador’s crash.25-03-2026 20:21
