Damn, forgot that already..

Simmons winning Strade Bianche, also winning a proper Tour stage dropping Wout from his back wheel while ripping small escape group and soloing ftw Piddock winning MSR 1 cm from Pogi and VDP in a three men escape group sprint Roglic winning Liege Pedersen winning RBX Skujins winning Flandres...

+100 Just guessing the thing that got Vingo upset, crashing and angry: When riding hard and fast with others, you're not only focusing others on your side and front of you. You are also just a bit tense of possible sudden group braking situations and someone crashing on your back wheel, on...

Just needs a follow car or moto for these more intense training sessions to clean close following stupidos away from athletes tail. Works.

I was thinking Sagan too, but also thought Freire. Because he was lightweight, even a bit lighter that Brennan. Freire in his best form challenged Boonen and Robbie McEwen pretty well. Triple MSR and WC and all that jazz..

Yeah I wish Visma is careful with him, as there's next versatile sprinter superstar brewing here. Next Freire could be, no? He's very young and it's so very delicate balancing to keep that explosive output and still grow the overall performance level to Grand Tours and top end Classics.

Is it hot take to say he wins MSR? I tend to think he can handle last climb and in the end he can take on anyone, anyone.. But how the last downhill goes for him after all out fight/attack. Looks like his endurance is ok, but team needs to keep escapees in tight leash through Cipressa.

I'm not sure if Nys is the chosen one, if that's what you meant? To me he looks way too hasty too often, is on edge with no reason. He's technically as good as top 10 these guys are, but still he's lost top spots with various mistakes, that have been very rare in case of DG and MVDP. And yet...

New findings in sad case of Sivert Bakken: https://www.nrk.no/sport/avdode-sivert-guttorm-bakken-ble-funnet-med-hoydemaske-1.17704988

Damn sure he goes to Vuelta. He's got two rainbow jerseys after all, so Canada is further back in the grand plan, unless some problems happens in early season. He already lost OG by skipping Paris, he's not going to get another chance for that. MSR, Tour, Vuelta must be his real...

Really good catch if they get Gee to the team, he could be such super quality gc domestique/road captain for Ayuso and Skjelmose.

Juanito pls take a trip to see Ricky Bobby for a month or so, get some exercise with high plains drifter. Prolly takes some, but gives some. But. Pls don't mimic his haircut, one is enough. :rolleyes:

Year after year, FDJ does not underperform with the mens team kit, simple and stylish.

10, because the Giro hardly ever disappoints. I'm pretty sure not even this time, teams and athletes will take care of that for sure.

It's a trap! :D Too intimidating for Pogi and Remco. My dream scenario that they all enter except Vingo skips after stage one because of sore throat. Pogi smashes Remco (well I can accept vice versa for sure) and Vingo smashes Pogi again in the Tour (with Wout tbf but anyway).
