I did watch from 95 and on. And to be honest, it wasn't much excitement seeing Indurain and Banesto win via mainly good time trials and control in the mountains. Basically, I have enjoyed the races most in between 'domination' cycles. Between Banesto and US Postal, between US Postal and Sky and...

Just a thought. Maybe the rest of the peloton has catched up with Vingegaard and Visma to some degree. Like in the golden EPO days where the peloton by the late mid nineties had catched up with the early users. I don't know, but it is a guess. Either that, or UAE is indeed protected more than...

Good argument. Mauro Gianetti has one of the most talented young riders of his generation and a doping programme that helps him and his team mates along with great success. Maybe they did not need to push the boundaries with Pogacar because he is that good. But after getting beaten by...

No, I never said that. Of course they are fully doping. But maybe not pushing the boundaries beyond the extreme.

Yes, and in 2023 he could have introduced a new doping regime/product or increased the existing one. I find the argument very good.

As others have pointed out he has to crush the Vuelta as well. First to win the triple is some feat. F it all.

This might seem like a very stupid question (I am no doctor/health professional/researcher). Since I started following cycling in the mid-nineties focus has been on mainly blood transfusions and EPO. Both, as I understand it, boosting your amount of red blood cells and thereby your ability to...

But again, that is no different from any other top class rider in recent years, Lance Armstrong, prime Contador, Nibali, Wiggins, Froome, Thomas, Roglic, Pogacar etc. They won because they had the watts to drop their rivals. Other than nationality, I really don't see the specific need to shout...

I agree with you to a certain extent, but Jumbo are just following the strategy perfected by Sky with Wiggins, Froome and Thomas. This is just what cycling has become. I don't know where things went wrong, but the lack of positive doping tests certainly does not mean that cycling is suddenly...

This is the mother of his girlfriend who is discussing participating in the danish version of Bake-off. I am sure, you can find better clips of her. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNcTIetz7CE But the truth is, you cannot help but like her. She is always positive and smiling and brings...

Indeed. Some would say too much :)

Well, Vingegaard is just from Thy in the north-western part of Jutland, Denmark. The more west and north you come in Jutland, the fewer words people are using when expressing themselves and the fewer emotions they are showing. This is a generalisation, I know, but nonetheless true. I have come...

Off topic: Hi TubularBills I tried to send you a PM, but was not able to. Regarding your request to the moderators on my quoting techniques, I am sorry, if I have offended you in any way. It was certainly not intended, and only due to a technical constraint on this forum on the number of...

Re: $$$$ You are wrong. You should get out among people and the general cycling fans more. Will do you good. The last time I saw someone on here offer an argument for why they believe sky, without at least one personal insult or shot at those who dont believe, was probably 2013...

Re: Re: Well, I am one of the 80% of Danes. And if I had a cat, it would prefer Whiskas (danish name):) On a more serious note, I would postulate, that most Danes find the domination of Sky far fetched. Our beloved commentator/cycling enthusiast Jørgen Leth commented at the beginning of the...
