    Volta a Catalunya, 23-29 March 2026

    If I was trying to argue that global warming didn't exist, bringing up the question how these races were able to take place in the 60s would be my go to argument.

    Will Tadej get #5 Tour, all 5 monuments and 19 wins??

    Lmao he's not gonna end his career 2-3 GTs behind Merckx barring any bad injuries. Is he not planning to do the Vuelta this year? I thought he was, so that could bring him to 7 GTs in 2026 and he needs to win 4 more GTs in 3 more years to get to the record in 2029. If you don't think that's...

    Yeah I think the over/under for when he breaks it is 2029, so I think he should be fine.

    Mate what do you want? He changed his tactics to attack on a climb where no favorite had dared to attack in years. He changed his training regime to focus more on classics races when his team evidently wants him to focus on the tour above anything else. And even then he had to get lucky with his...

    I think there was a point last year where it became surprising if there is any big record he doesn't break.

    I wonder if he doesnt want to come back to Sanremo now that he has won there or if there is a deal with his team that once he has won all monuments the focus goes back to GTs. Gianettis reaction right after the race kinda sounded like he was relieved he could focus more on the tour again.

    Ah I misread your original comment. I read Van der Pool not Van Poppel. No I entirely agree with you then.

    If he doesn't how does this help him? He was not winning from the group today either and no way Pogacar is willing to pull two riders for 15km. I think his best shot was somehow hanging on over the Poggio and winning in the sprint. It's just how cycling goes. You are not gonna win every race...

    PATHETIC VAN DER POOP AND WHEELSUCKER MIDCOCK HAVE BEEN DEFEATED. ARE YOU TIRED OF WINNING YET?

    Pidcock needs to start working. I think the chances now essentially 50:50. He is really losing out if they are getting caught

    This is going absolutely ideally for Pidcock

    Why are people shocked that the guy who has won this race two out of the last three years, once in precisely this situation, is pulling?

    I think MvdP looks dead. Might still win but he looked more comfortable a year ago.
