- That is true, but I am speculating that he doesn't want to disrupt the training so that he can peak for the other 2 monuments.
- Outside of Pogi and Vingo.. Jorgenson is the best GC rider along with Roglic, Remco, Ayuso, Bernal and Almeida to win GT.
- That's exactly why he can win it even without being at his best. It's basically a Z2 followed by 2 all out efforts
- Why are you putting Tom on that list of GT champions? Even stage race are not yet on his palmares 😅
He is good rider but Jorgenson is more capable of winning than Pidcock.
- I’d say without resolving the back problems you have no chance of resolving his state of mind. Now, back problems in young cyclists is probably going to become an issue like e.g. concussion in rugby & football. As we try to catch and form them for high performance younger and younger, we’re kind of obliging them to hone their TT skills earlier and earlier, certainly still during growth phases. Those hours in those positions are likely to have complex effects in some.
- So no 80km solo then?
- Yeah, yeah. Ignore the race on the day totally and stick to a plan you make public well in advance and hope your rivals fall for it. Could even have worked, if there’d not been a very similar report last year. And how many (anonymous and not) reports do you think reporters could find and choose from anyway?
- Funny, Ineos are better without Pidcock and Pidcock is better without Ineos. The relationship must have been really toxic.
- Winning MSR is like a throw of dice. Even if you have the best legs, you may not win it. It feels so random.
I'm guessing they are trying to squeeze out the last percentage of his performance through training camp.
- Maybe because he believes in the law of series or momentum ;-) that took Newcastle 70 years to break. No, seriously, I get the feeling Wout is going through a tough patch and feels he needs a « break ».
