and he would have a cheap victory. I actually don't think he would want that with careful reflection.17-07-2025 01:04

We have been waiting years to see most of these great riders in good form and uninjured - so that they can compete and we can see who is really the best rider. Ultimately, it is the fans who pay everybody's salary, and many fans want to see a great competition - not a cheap victory. The support for a cheap victory just reveals the intense focus on winning of many riders and teams. But winning isn't everything. It is the overall spectacle - the courage and determination. Teams want to win, but ultimately it is best if the sport wins. People want true heroes not exploiters of misfortune. Most of these leaders know this, and this is why they are great champions.17-07-2025 01:01

Only the richest teams could afford the best doping doctors. It is very dangerous.15-06-2025 06:06

One year ago, Jonas suffered a life-threatening injury that only a decade ago would have been a career-ending injury. Then a concussion this year. He talked about it ! People can die from such injuries - weeks after a concussion due to a slow-growing hematoma. He was only 14 seconds back on Tadej Pogacar after 4500m of climbing ! You critics are nitwits about medicine. You could just get by on macho bravado, and luck that your career wasn't ended by injury. Look at the crash scene footage of a year ago, and tell me you would have recovered from slamming into a 2 ft. square box/ditch of concrete. at 30kph. I don't think any of you would have. Further what did Armstrong do ? He targeted the TDF exclusively and he wasn't even recovering from injury. He made plenty of money for himself especially .- and his team.15-06-2025 05:43

Bjarne, think about 1999, Stage 2 Tour de Suisse. You retired in 2000 because of injuries to your knee and elbow. Nothing compared to Jonas's injuris from one year ago. Further, I do not want to hear from an admitted drug cheater. Especially when he is sniping a true champion and hero. Go away Bjarne. One year ago, Jonas suffered a life-threatening injury that only a decade ago would have been a career-ending injury. He did not quit. Then a concussion this year. He talked about it ! People can die from such injuries - weeks after a concussion due to a slow-growing hematoma. People don't die from knee and elbow injuries. He was only 14 seconds back on Tadej Pogacar after 4500m of climbing ! Is your ego so fragile that you need to paint this as some kind of shame to Denmark ? or cycling ? For all his gentle demeanor, I know who is the real man here. It is Jonas.15-06-2025 05:39
