    European Championship 2025: Men’s RR, October 5

    Shame on the Evenepoel group for not working together, 40km to go you still have realistic chances but they decide to look at each other #LosersMentality

    Vuelta a España Vuelta 2025, stage 20: Robledo de Chavela - Bola del Mundo - Puerto de Navacerrada (164.8 km)

    You'd think so but the way Jonas races doesn't reflect that. Some of it falls on Jonas shoulders too, he is a quiet guy, he doesn't want to rock the boat, he doesn't want to put his foot down and make demands, he doesn't want his needs priotized. Hopefully his wife can put some sense into him...

    The story is that Visma has a team issued trainer that everyone trains under and Niermann that thinks that he knows it all and lies to Vingegaard that his numbers are enough to win via some ''AI-algorithm'' Visma has been fiddling with.

    He will never know if he can improve becasuse it seems that he doesn't want to try changing trainers and for him to give it his absolute best shot at challenging Pogacar, Visma needs to put all eggs in one basket and give him domestiques in tip top shape for the Tour, which they haven't given...

    Congrats to Jonas but if he only won overall with slightly over 1 minute vs Almeida. the rivalry with Pogacar is over.

    Juan Ayuso discussion thread

    Ayuso burnt every bridge at UAE, nobody in the team likes him. He is a selfish guy that leaves the race instead of helping out his teammate. Being Matxin's golden child he has been given opportunities ahead of others and he flopped and left the race instead of helping his teammate that was in...

    IPT are a Pro-conti team that isn't the #1 Pro-conti team, meaning the Vuelta organizers are not obliged to invite them, yet they did invite them. Vuelta organizers could have done the smart thing and not invite but they didnt think this through. I want to add more context but I'm not allowed...
