    Paris-Roubaix 2026, one day monument, April 12

    Nice win for Wout. Actually, smart racing and luck got him this although I do think that he was by far stronger one out of the two today. Too bad for VdP. He has really done tremendous amount of work. If it was only one problem he would have been absolute favorite to win. Mad respect for...

    Clásica San Sebastián 2025, one day race, August 2

    Vuelta is less than a month away so there is still time to improve but Ayuso's form at the moment is not very comforting for UAE. Will see how Getxo finishes but considering the competition top 5 is a must.

    Clásica San Sebastián 2025, one day race, August 2

    Grande Giulio!! Roglic earned a lot of points in my notebook. UAE disaster tactics. Should have at least try to keep it 2v1 as long as possible.

    Vingegaard vs Pogačar - The Duel

    I actually think Decathlon was very good. When needed to do some damage to Gall's GC opponents they were always there. Of course, they are not top GC team.

    State of the Peloton 2025

    indeed nice days for cycling. Many generational talents at the same time. So much that the phrase kind of loses its meaning.

    State of the Peloton 2025

    so what youre saying is Jonas, Primož and Florian were faster than Iban and Tadej still has a reserve on top of it. Nice days for cycling in general.

    ugh juice is spreading around. Tadej will have the record but he can thank Visma and Jonas for it.

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 11: Toulouse – Toulouse (156.8k)

    Hard racing like this might result in nuclear attacks on the last wall. Chance is not many will be able to follow after that.

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    While I don't have much hope that A.Yates will be of use to Pogačar, I seem to remember that when Jorgensen attacked both A.Yates and Kuss and I'll add Narvaez were together in the dropped group. I did not see much of them to be sure, but when I did, UAE guys were not pulling to get back. It...

    could be. but it could also be somet'n else.

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    I mean, after a long and hard day both of them just blow away remaining GC contenders on 300m of a 3k climb and then for 1k they laugh and ride behind furios pace of dropped Lenny Martinez with bloody nose while GC "contenders" lose time sprinting flat out behind them. Ridiculous.

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    I guess Tadej is better responder than Jonas for the latest juice that is being used but I also find Jonas' ability to respond to Tadej's attacks very interesting considering how he could not follow his wheel for more than 50m in Dauphine. What percentage of improvement would that be? 6-7?
