If remco is as good as merckx, pog and vingo wont matter.But there was not Pog and Vingo etc.
He is tired of @Logic-is-your-friend calling him fat.
He wasn't on altitude training camp yet.That looks like Giro form.
There have been photos of him recently at altitude in the mountains...
That means it's working!He is tired of @Logic-is-your-friend calling him fat.
Unlike his Tour de France rivals Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike), Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quickstep), it will be Pogačar's first intensive altitude camp of the season.
Bad journalismCN says Remco has been at altitude camp.

And I'v said so, in so many words. The question is will he? If he indeed has gotten leaner and increased his power, then he should, for that's what he needs to do.This is the year he needs to take a massive leap
That could be the angle. How much could you actually lose from Paris-Nice until now at this level. Also, for the hill classics, does he even need to be leaner?
The "Opi-omi"-sign makes it a good one.Yes, he definitely looks leaner. Looking at the before and after shots it's actually hard to believe it's the same person.

He's certainly seems skinnier just looking at his face.That could be the angle. How much could you actually lose from Paris-Nice until now at this level. Also, for the hill classics, does he even need to be leaner?
That could also be the angle. To see a visible difference, you need to lose at least 1-2kg. I doubt he did that in the past 2-3 weeks.He's certainly seems skinnier just looking at his face.

He indeed does. Good for him, if he tries to maximize his chances at the Tour, I guess. A 3rd name in the fight wouldn’t hurt.
Are you as fit as Evenepoel? With a similar fat percentage? Because I'm quite lean, and I don't think I can just drop 1kg in a day.1 kg is a mere 2.2 pounds. I can drop that in a day just by not eating much and going for a 2 mile run
You get a clear view on his cheekline. This isn't just the angle imo.That could also be the angle. To see a visible difference, you need to lose at least 1-2kg. I doubt he did that in the past 2-3 weeks.

This the Contador thread all over again.You get a clear view on his cheekline. This isn't just the angle imo.
Can't we all? It's the other 15 lbs between us and a GT racer that are tough!1 kg is a mere 2.2 pounds. I can drop that in a day just by not eating much and going for a 2 mile run
Ride a hard 4 hrs with someone stronger. It'll happen even if you don't want to lose weight.Are you as fit as Evenepoel? With a similar fat percentage? Because I'm quite lean, and I don't think I can just drop 1kg in a day.
Kills me every time. Absolutely no way anyone can arrive at a conclusion from one photo, weeks away from a previous photo.This the Contador thread all over again.
Edit: not necessarily anything to do with your comment Logic. Just the trend of judging weight based on photos.
