There's a difference in winning OG in time trial and winning it in a road race. In terms of cycling though...

Yeah, it's a separate thing, I agree, but I think it's abig thing in cycling too. If you speak, for instance, about Van Avermaet, you will say he won PR and Olympics RR out of biggest races, you won't throw in that basket races like Omloop, E3 and GW.Yes, you can mention that he won them too...

Oh yes it is. I'm sure Remco regard his Olympics win at least equal with Liege (and quite probably higher), and in line with his worlds RR.

17 major wins. Tied with Coppi, one more than Hinault, but still 16 less than Merckx. In one-day races only, he's even better, 12 major wins, surpassed De Vlaeminck, only Merckx up front with 22.

First about Indurain: Indurain rode only one WC and won it. He rode one Olympics and aslo won it. He won 8 out of 10 TT's in his reigning Tour de France period 1991-1995. That two he had lost were at the very end of the race where he was many minutes ahead of oppostion, so he probably eased up...

Yes I will say Indurain. He won the biggest races in the world by demolishing people in this discipline, and he did that over and over again. Coppi, Merckx, Hinault, and Anquetil and Cancellara of course. Maybe Moser too.

Yes he is, and he will certainly be much more as time goes by.

It's way too early for that claim. There's at least half a dozen guys who earn that recognition more.

Yep, looks a lot like Valverde. He even won Emilia yesterday like Valverde would, he waited and waited, then late surge, and then final sprint. Although endurance is not there yet, and Valverde had that from day one.

Primoz Roglic will attack on Mt.Kigali. Whoever wants to win the race, not named Tadej Pogacar, should try to go with him.

Of course it's a great season. Can he do even better? Of course he can!

What Pidcock? Kid nearly won the Giro! He's way above Pidcock.

Yep he would wipe the floor with these clowns.

It would be interesting to calculate who has the most wins after 30. I guess Roglic would be in top 10.
