The thing is that until someone fails a test or is caught in some other way then riders should be considered innocent. However, when the climb times, level of competition, watts achieved and many other data points are taken into consideration and put in context with guys like Armstrong, whom they are kicking to 20th place on mountains he once dominated and held records on, when we know he was doping in his prime, it seems impossible that cheating at some level is not happening. I think a guy like Tadej is probably a guy who only comes along in two or three generations, looking at the way he wins across different cycling disciplines tells me this. Like everything else, time will tell the truth. I want guys like Tadej and Jonas to be clean and I hope they are, I'll keep believing anyway until someone who is really in the know, like a failed test or the UCI, tells me different.13-02-2026 17:47

The modern era of cycling is 10x harder than when MerckX was competing. Part time plumbers don't race on the pro tour.26-01-2026 19:49

Tadej only knows how to use his earth shaking power. When you have it, and not many do, it's the first and last arrow in the quiver. Let's be honest, had he not missed that corner in last years Roubaix, he would have won it his first time out. Horner correctly asserts to let other teams do the work when he's isolated, Tadej has a tendency to just attack them and blow them to bits, he can't do that forever. He's trying to become the first guy to ever win the Tour six times over the next few years, not accounting for Armstrong. He will need to hone his tactics unless he can stay on his level of '24 and '25 through '27.26-01-2026 19:44

Forgiveness is an important human trait, more so, an important christian trait. I forgave Lance long ago as well as his team mates. It's okay for them to move forward and have success in their lives. Interested to see what Hincapie's leadership will look like at the highest level.23-01-2026 17:50

I believe we need less GT's, the Vuelta should probably be shut down, this would allow the Giro and the Tour to be the premier events on the world tour racing calendar which would make the Giro as popular as the Tour de France. Say the Giro in June and Tour in August, swap them around every few years.18-01-2026 21:30

It's good he is thinking about the Vuelta. At least creating a race schedule that will help him win one more Vuelta. The downside to this is that Tadej has pointed to racing the Vuelta if he is healthy after the Tour. Should make for an exciting race.04-01-2026 06:56
