    Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

    This thread is so much fun!!! 😂 So, after several pages debating if Remco will surpass Nibaldi GTs performances (the odds of this happening being above 99 pct), how about if we discuss the Remco vs Froome situation: - what are the odds that Remco GT career will be better than Froome’s?

    Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

    Are you guys really questioning here if Remco is a GC rider?? Is this for real?? For God sake, the kid is not only a GC rider but he is already a GC winner! Debating if he will ever reach Vinge/Pog’s GC level is one thing, questioning if he is a GC rider is totally nonsense…

    No, he is just stating the obvious…

    Vuelta a España Who’s going to win La Vuelta? Rest Day 2 Poll

    Totally agree! I had previously voted for Sepp but after reading your post I understood how illogical I was being and joined your group: 20 minutes is nothing - Remco is still the favorite!

    I don’t think you should compare both situations… Almeida is/was sick and even so gave its best (as he always does) to minimize his losses (riding most of the stage alone!) and try to keep the best possible position in GC. At the same time, Remco had his full team by its side, completely gave...

    Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2023, stage 13: Formigal - Col du Tourmalet, 134.7k

    Actually his worst position was 6th, and even then with the same time as the 5th…

    João Almeida - Bota Lume

    I did not heard the interview but I do find a bit odd (to say the least…) those comments by Remco. My memories from that Giro are Almeida not waiting for Remco (which, imo and based on the race scenario, made perfect sense) and Remco clearly not happy with the whole situation… team eventually...

    World Championship 2023: Men’s TT (August 10)

    You’re right… 😊 Pog’s performance should clearly be added to that list!

    World Championship 2023: Men’s TT (August 10)

    We already had three amazing TT performances this year (two in the Giro, one on the Tour). Unfortunately two of those riders (Roglic and Vinge) won’t be at the Worlds… 🙁

    Velo d’Or 2023

    From my perspective winning two GTs in a single season is something that would make its winner a lock for the Velo d’Or… let’s see what happens in a few weeks…

    Tour de France Rate Tour de France 2023

    I would have given it a 10 if Cavendish had won stage 7… 😊

    João Almeida - Bota Lume

    Not a great day today… But what a difference it makes on this type of stages to have by your side guys like Vine instead of the “Masnadas” of this world…

    João Almeida - Bota Lume

    So, let me try to understand… The guy doesn’t know how to ride in the rain! The guy doesn’t know how to descend! The guy sucks in the montains! The guy can no longer ride a TT bike! …. And even with all this, he is only losing something like 20s to the race leader… imagine if he could do well...

    Wouldn’t it be great if people at forums behave like that? 😂
