    I just wanna hear a radio message: “He’s dead, I’m gone”. (Not my clever joke stole it from Reddit)

    I did, you hold special significance for Ventoux. I’m saying I rather my goat hold as many KOM’s as possible and that they stand for a long time. He just fell shy of Riis on Hautacam. He does hold Ventoux.

    A 12km solo launch on Hautacam wasn’t epic enough? How many times in a single tour do you expect those kinds of attacks? Every day?

    The road itself is meaningless to him. He has said repeatedly all the climbs are basically the same. Pundits like to talk up a big game how this climb or that one is mythical and magical or especially hard. But as Pog has said, he just had a bad day it could have been any climb it just so...

    So we have our answer! Pog is targeting Col de la Loze to shut the pundits up. (Pay attention to 56 second mark) View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ach2Dvmav80

    I think this is a big factor. The other guys stay lean all year and train and build their base lean. Maybe they are 1-2 kgs higher in the off season than their race weight. Remco’s natural weight is higher and he always has to drop 4-5kgs before the big races.

    What’s funny are the comments saying you must secretly dislike him anytime something negative is mentioned. There is a difference between blind worship and love. If you truly love someone you see and recognize their flaws but still like them despite those flaws. Remco fans too often fall into...

    Not only that Pog wants as many stage wins as he can get, yet 2 mountain top finishes have just gone by where it didn’t look like he was committed to winning. That is atypical for Pog. Whatever is up, it doesn’t matter. He has 4 minutes and there are only 2 hard days left. He can shed 30’s here...

    I mean Pog said he was sick and there was something going around and boom, we hear MvDP has to abandon due to pneumonia. I don’t think he is lying. Let that sink in for us all, Pog with a cold is about level with Jonas.

    I said it at stage 15 he looks tired. After stage 15 Pog himself said he was just coming off a cold, runny dose, sore throat (+the crash). As long as he isn’t about to crack it is all good and we may see some form on La Plagne. That or he is being very smart and starting to save energy for the...

    Exactly, Pog can be all nice guy in the bus and in front of the media, but you don’t get to that level without some serious internal fire to obliterate the competition.

    Ok I mixed up the major crash with a lessor one but didn’t he crash stage 17 of 2021 giro? https://www.soudal-quickstepteam.com/en/news/4949/remco-evenepoel-stops-the-giro-d-italia?utm_source=chatgpt.com

    Not really fair. 2021 he crashed out, so severely could have easily lost his life or ended his career. 2023 he left with Covid and if I recall right, wearing the Pink jersey. So he is definitely a top 10 GT rider, as good as say Enric Mas. But absent disaster from Tadej and Jonas, he ain’t got a...

    Exactly, Jonas said he doesn’t usually have bad days but he fails to realize Pog isn’t on 2023 level so the reason he has bad days is because he is trying to follow Pog. We all know what happens to people who try to follow Pogi this year and last year.
