> "It's very difficult to control a 1,300-kilometer 'stadium'" Agree. I want more nice loops in road cycling: - It is better for safety (easier to protect 20-40 km loop than 200 km road) - Better for spectators (they can watch their favourite riders many times) - Better for riders (after first lap they know what surface is and how reliable it is) - Better for transmission (extra stationary cameras etc.)15-08-2026 11:45

> it was a dicey move, very aggressive perhaps. but wrong? well no one was relegated so it was ok. >as Demi said, when she was in yellow, no one waited for her. Was Kasia relegated for not waiting for Demi? Well no one was relegated so it was ok. Even Demi's team ignored her.10-08-2026 23:03

> If Kasia had gone straight to FDJ Suez DS instead, there would have been no death threats. You confuse the effect with the cause. If Gery hadn't been unfair, there wouldn't have been any threats. > And the message that you are sending out here, that a young cyclist deserves to have her life threatened for controversial positioning is extraordinary. What??? I'm not supporting any threats to anyone. So go and be an idiot somewhere else.10-08-2026 16:42

When you trying to judge here please consider first: - would any of Visma domestiques do same to Pogačar? - would any of UAE domestiques do same to Jonas Vingegaard? The only answer that comes to mind is: NO, they respect each other. So why the hell Gery/FDJ had to do such a dirty and not necessary move? Shame on them.10-08-2026 13:18

> Gery received death threats, so there were real consequences of Kasia confronting her in public. No - at most there were consequences of Gery dirty move.10-08-2026 10:53

"“I wanted to make it clear that we didn’t win because of an incident yesterday." Dirty and nasty tactics is not 'incident'. “As a team, we deserved to win a beautiful Tour, with humility and pride.” And you won... with shame and arrogance.10-08-2026 10:05

>Not easy to see if Gery did something wrong on purpose. Sounds more like a weak excuse.. It is a weak comment. If you don't know because it is "not easy to see" how you can blame Niewiadoma?08-08-2026 22:56

> All in all, these estimates look so confusing. Maybe they aren’t that confusing. Once you account for bike weight and aerodynamics, it’s still possible that Pantani had to put in more effort than Pogačar, even though he climbed slower.06-08-2026 12:19

After watching Pauline Ferrand-Prevot yesterday I really think that on a regular bike she would be much faster. She just cannot into TT bikes...05-08-2026 11:12
