Not reading anything negative in Mr. Plugge's comments. His job is to observe and support his rider and team and to market their team, and that's what his statements do, without anything disparaging against the competition. One can twist the comments to appear negative if one chooses, but why?30-05-2025 01:03

Eclipsed in results, sure; they are on opposite sides of the street, one going up, the other down. Yet, by your own admission, or knowledge of said press, people are still interested in reading the press he gets, and after all, it's entertainment.21-05-2025 06:43

A senior Tour de France would arguably be just as exciting as the WT TdF. Not all retirees become instant slouches, and they're the same age as many of the most ardent pro cycling fans, so the audience would certainly be there. Who wouldn't want to see a Contador-Froome rematch?21-05-2025 02:36

TdF history pretty resoundingly proves that may or may not be correct.07-05-2025 17:42

Everyone thought Froome or Contador had the 2014 Tour locked up, and look what happened. Anything can occur in a race.07-05-2025 06:59

You reference friends and entourage, but it is the pillars upon which we are taught to rely that routinely fail due in large part to poor design. This is the societal shortcoming that allows people facing difficult life-changing challenges to embrace self-reliance.14-02-2025 16:29

Wouldn't that make life easier, but no. A truly civilized society would leave no proverbial cracks open for people to fall through. Mr. Bobridge had to deal with the fact that society in a very uncivilized manner drops people when we falter.12-02-2025 22:00

Ponderous. I have found the precise opposite to be true as well, hence my original comment. Burying consciousness in substances seems to help no one in the long term. But relying upon others for help results in disappointment upon learning no one can hear.12-02-2025 21:44

Well, that event certainly sounds serious. Thank you for sharing it. But this article seemed to state that Mr. Freire was errant in not being available by cell phone during his private time away from home, leaving no room for actual privacy. And that is not news.11-02-2025 23:53
