    2024 Giro d'Italia, Stage 1: Venaria Reale - Torino, 140 km (Saturday, May 4)

    Don't agree with the whole "Pog will give away the pink jersey on Stage 1/Stage 2/Stage X" thing, no reason he and his team can't hold it comfortably the entire race imo

    Who is the better cyclist between Pogacar and Vingegaard?

    I don't necessarily think Vingegaard is a better climber or TTer than Pogacar, he's just better at sustaining his level for 3 weeks. He gets stronger and stronger while others tire. Pog's best chance to beat him at the Tour is to ride boring and conservative for the first 2 weeks, but that's...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 4: Dax - Nogaro, 181.8k

    I wish there were more stages like stage 8 where there's an equal possibility for a full bunch sprint, reduced sprint, breakaway or a late attack/puncheur finish. Nailed on sprints stages like today where no one even bothers going in the break just make the Tour look stupid

    Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 4: Dax - Nogaro, 181.8k

    One thing we can agree on is that flat stages suck, do we really need 8 of them in one Tour?

    Poll: Who will win the 2023 Tour de France?

    Voted Pogacar, I think he's learned his lesson from last year and will ride smarter

    Rate the 2023 Giro d'Italia

    3 for me as well. The defining memory of this Giro is not Roglic storming up the MTT, but Ben Swift pacing a full peloton up the Giau

    Teams & Riders Derek Gee is the new G

    This style of riding is way more memorable than an anonymous GC top 10, hope he keeps racing like this and doesn't go down the Kamna path

    Giro d'Italia 2023 Giro d'Italia, Stage 19: Longarone – Tre Cime di Lavaredo 183 km (Friday, May 26th)

    Especially since there's another guy in the race whose name is genuinely Gee

    Giro d'Italia 2023 Giro d'Italia: Who is going to win? Pre-race poll.

    Why on earth are corratec even in this race? Q36.5 are considerably better

    Battle for 2023-2025 WT licenses

    Latour probably seals it with 4th today. Teuns didn't even ride, what a weird signing.

    Battle for 2023-2025 WT licenses

    Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2022, stage 16: Sanlúcar de Barrameda - Tomares, 189.4k

    I get your point and obviously it's impossible to enforce something like that as each situation is different. Just frustrated me to see a guy go all out and light up the stage just to gain 8 seconds on someone who chats and takes it easy for the hardest 3km of the day. The crash was his own...
