    What kind of gt stages would you like to see more of ?

    Very long itts (1of ~70km and another of ~45, plus an 8 km prologue and a mtt, plus an 80 km ttt) and 1-2 mountain stages of similar difficulty to morzine 1983 or sestrieres 1992

    Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

    Cunego's giro also was not that impressive. He beat nobody of significance that race. The best rider he beat was his teammate who again flopped in the TDF

    I'd say the combo of the Olympic double and the world TT last year is far better. Had Remco not flapped his wings, sang BIRD! BIRD! BIRD! in the WRR, he'd be the current undisputed road cycling champion

    I'd think red bull, who are not the sponsors, but the owners, would rather have 2 GT wins vs 1. Send him to the giro and Vuelta and tell Gouvenou Remco's not coming back until we have a real TT in the TDF
