    General Doping Thread.

    So according to kelderman, Visma re-invented cycling training this winter as well... Better food, more intensity, harder but shorter training blocks. I can already hear the journalists fawning over the new methods...

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

    I wonder how much is true about UAE being a wake up call and switching to a more climber focused training, instead of explosive training to try and hold an acceleration longer. Or wether that was always the plan given remco his schedule. And UAE just empathised the need for more climbing. Focus...

    Question Tour de France: 2023 Vingegaard vs 2025 Pogacar

    I disagree. Pogacar was able to mask his weakness till the hard part of the Tour began. He was exposed once things got tough. Had there been an early multiple mountain genuine hard stage, their would have probably been an immediate gap. Kinda like evenepoel in latest uae tour. Who looked good...

    Question Tour de France: 2023 Vingegaard vs 2025 Pogacar

    Obviously this discussion does not matter. Overall Pogacar has come out on top. But if we are having this debate about a single tour, i have as many reasons to believe Jonas win was more dominant than you believe Tadej was more dominant.

    Question Tour de France: 2023 Vingegaard vs 2025 Pogacar

    Tadej lost time on Jonas in stage 5, Stage 6 Tadej fought back, but he took a lot less time on Jonas than Jonas did on him on stage 5. Stage 9 , Tadej again only managed to gain a handful of seconds after doing everything he could. Stage 16 Jonas took nearly 2 minutes on Tadej. Stage 17 Tadej...

    People are so quick to bring down Merckx and his era to elevate another.

    Question Tour de France: 2023 Vingegaard vs 2025 Pogacar

    I'm not even sure why anyone would take an injury into account. Especially one that does not happen during the race. At the end of the day the question is not who was more dominant cause the other rider got injured earlier in the season.But simply who won the tour more dominantly. Pogacar was...

    Question Tour de France: 2023 Vingegaard vs 2025 Pogacar

    Vingegaard just said he is only now feeling himself after his crash. So taking Tadej injury into acccount and not Jonas his injury seems unfair. Also Pogacar kept pace early on, on what i believe were on shorter climbs that suited him the most at the time. Once the bigger mountains came he fell...

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

    You asked a question on a forum , and several people responded. Not just me. You just don't seem to enjoy my input in the matter, but that ain't my problem. I just gave my opinion on the matter, and you are now making it personal. Not me.

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

    I'm sorry but you can't cry foul whenever the answer doesn't suit your desires. Time gap and crack of Tadej are clear. Jonas did not crack in a similar fashion. What else can I say.
