    Liège - Bastogne - Liège 2026, one-day monument, 26th April

    Tactics are for weaklings, not for Champions. /s. Jokes asides, I think those guys do NOT want to win if they weren't the strongest. The only ones not thinking like this are Vingegaard, new WVA, and old Roglic. I'm pretty sure VDP prefers to lose than to win by playing with Pogacar.

    Comprehensive Climbers Ranking

    This and Mont Dore remain the most impressive attacks i've seen, along the Dauphine 14' where Froome tried to drop Contador. (Even though they were probably pushing ridiculously low watts in comparison). (And Cipressas)

    Rough Attempt at an All-Time Ranking

    After today I'm less confident Pogacar will overtake Merckx. On one hand Seixas could help him remain motivated for a few more years. But he might* win a bit less along the way. Interesting time, who could have thought in 24' that Pogacar could get even better, yet being almost challenged by a...

    Liège - Bastogne - Liège 2026, one-day monument, 26th April

    Sitting behind Alaphilippe is dangerous. Look what happened to Pogacar last time he did it : he was caught and lost. Sadly Alaphilippe DNS tomorrow, therefore i don't see how Pogacar could lose.

    Remco vs Paul, who will have the best LBL result in 2026?

    Only chance for Seixas to beat Remco is stick to Pogacar then get dropped later when Remco is a bit too far. If he'd dropped and work with Remco it's unlikely he beats the aerobullet

    Remco vs Paul, who will have the best LBL result in 2026?

    Pogacar there : Seixas 2 nd (Pogacar working like in RVV for him not to come back). Pogacar not there, Remco wins.

    Mancebo in the Pog era

    Don't look top 10 of 2015 though. Contador and Nibali were very bad in that Tour, especially on PSM climb IIRC. The pool seems much deeper today, to me. Many riders with similar top level if you forget Pogacar, Vingegaard, Seixas and 24' Evenepoel.

    Best classic rider

    Yes but at same period cavendish was winning MSR. With Pogacar and Merckx in it, no sprinter could hold. For me it's VDP, but I don't know how the old one played their strengths, so it's biaised. Pogacar is a strong contender but with all those champions, VDP would profit the most of wheelsto...

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    What drugs are all of you guys on ??? In RVV and even more today, he was on the wind for god knows how long, on the flat, with mediocre aero. He also had to chase back 1'30" then 20" again latter. On cobbles he is lighter and less technical so he has to push more than specialist to fatigue them...

    Thanks you Wout. You do have it. You gave everything to win. And you did. Probably his last chance to do it, unless his form goes Valverde style.

    Paris-Roubaix 2026, one day monument, April 12

    I'm a big fan of Pogacar, and wanted him to win Roubaix this year, to achieve 5 monuments in one year. He was strong today, but not as strong as VDP. Not strong enough to be WVA (3rd strongest today). For once WVA played it correctly (at least from Arenberg ). After all those failures, he is...
