    European Championship 2025: Men’s RR, October 5

    Seixas has less punch than del Toro though. And Del Toro also has a decent track on other* road surfaces. Will be very interesting to follow the development of these two and how they will compare to eachother over the years as well as against the current top GC riders.

    Del Toro to setup the attack, hardly anybody will be left and then Pogacar drops everybody. Del Toro will sit in the wheel of the followers and clinch second.

    The selfie with Pogacar and Evenepoel is quite cute.

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    Would say he has beaten his best ride of the season again today. ;)

    France riding this back to group 2 with Seixas being the third best in the race so far is a bit strange no?

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    I am still quite doubtful on whether Visma will allow Vingegaard to do the Giro and the expense of lowering their chances for the Tour. Seems to me that at Visma there is still believe that Vingegaard can beat Pogacar if everything falls into place. And they will definitely know that they...

    106th Coppa Bernocchi (06.10.25)

    Perfect opportunity for yet another wonderkid to win on Italian soil. Brennan my favourite for this one.

    Grand Magnier

    After another succesful season I think it is about time that Paul Magnier gets his own topic. He already had a very good first pro year with a debut win on Mallorca and after that multiple wins in Oman, the Giro Next Gen, and Tour of Britain but arguably his most impressive performance was his...

    Isaac Del Toro thread

    By now I would argue that he is the third best rider in the world for the harder hilly one day races in the world. And I think he is top-5 when it comes to riding GCs in one week and GTs, but i guess that is still highly debatable based on the evidence so far. Anyway amazing performances by...

    Is Roglic past his prime?

    Definitely on the decline, peak somewhere between 2019-2023. Right now Pogacar, Vingegaard, Evenepoel, Almeida, Del Toro are all better riders for the races that Roglic is targetting. Pidcock probably as well. Age affects us all.

    Teams & Riders Cian Uijtdebroeks - From the wetlands to the top of cycling

    With the Visma break nothing indicates that Cian is a difficult guy to work with. Seems more the opposite that they are going separate ways with mutual respect still left in tact. At first i thought it a very strange transfer to. But after thinking it through I think it makes sense. Visma is...

    Poor performance from him. Visma must be right to let him go. ;)
