Seems like there's a clear pattern - in this thread and out of it- where people who didn't listen to the interview are incandescent about what Lefevere said (or rather, what they think he said) and people who did aren't. What does that tell you? I have yet to see a single person who actually...

The 50 breakaway at De Panne was re: to Expereza team and there's nothing you can say that will change that. You can convince yourself that isn't it so, but it only means you're living in delusion.

If people were conned by CN's outrage-making revenue-generating article, they should be mad at CN and its editors for manipulating and making fools out of them, not at Lefevere or anyone else.

Your "example" was some weird shrieking about a basketball team director or whatever? I have no idea what was the analogy you were trying to make. Whatever it is, it simply doesn't mean Lefevere stated that running a women pro cycling is charity or should be done by the OCMW or whatever. He's...

That's not true. Earlier on this thread, we had someone saying "I hardly know anything about [women cycling], sometimes I watch a race here and there and the pure physical dominance of a very few riders on all commonly used profiles is a bit off-putting" saying that Lefevere is not only wrong...

Out of curiosity, I went on and checked what is being said about this topic in what I think is the largest road cycling public forum on the internet. Here's the most upvoted comment: Bit blunt, but putting it into the context of the interview makes it more palatable. And definitely...

Reminder that Lefevere didn't insult anyone and there was nothing wrong about his demeanour - it's all made up by loons on this forum.

I'm saying that the CN piece is not a transcript and is highly misleading on how it selectively quotes Lefevere while interjecting their own commentary, but, to their credit, they're careful enough to not claim that Lefevere said the reason he doesn't want to start a women team at DQS at this...

You know he literally mentioned that investment, right (that I'm pretty sure it's still ongoing, just not on-road cycling)? Oh of course, you don't, you didn't watch the interview. He said what he said: He doesn't want to do it now because he doesn't think a competitive team is viable with...

Your tone is far more inappropriate than mine: you repeatedly made-up stuff, called names, lied, were uncharitable, etc,. The problem isn't my tone - in fact, most of the comments on this thread are far more vitriolic than mine and it's not even close; it's that, for once, they were directed...

Sure, if you're unhinged to the point of wanting to claim that Lefevere's point wasn't that the current talent to form a pro team with a strong Belgian core doesn't exist now and that he isn't the person to do the necessary a priori developmental work at the youth levels and recruitment, I...

I know you're just a troll but he said he didn't have the duty, experience, expertise, money, etc, to have Belgian young women taking on road cycling. Not about "starting a women's team", as you, once again, lie about. He did literally that not long ago (or sponsored the survival of an existing...

Where? He just says investing in development isn't worth it for him because he doesn't have the expertise, the money, the duty or the will to do so. He says he doesn't see an elite pro team as viable because the talent just ins't there. There's nothing remotely contradictory about these...

You're out of reasons but he literally explained why in a recent interview. The one you've commented without watching.

This is all about that interview you didn't watch and yet insist on interpreting, right? There's always some craziness on the internet but I'm not sure if I've ever experienced something quite like having to refute someone's very detailed parsing about the tone and subtexts of an interview they...
