    people really get frustrated by such stupid answers to a rational perspective.

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

    That's because of his previous results, that were unseen for a 20 years old cyclist. Imagine they cloned Merckx, he would be hyped from his childhood, just because people believe unseen results can be made in future by this clone, according to what someone did in the past.

    Look it's nice to have discussions, pro and contra arguments, but what you just posted is simply saying this forum shouldn't exist. The 'fanboys' are just sharing a combination of thoughts and dreams, there are huge believers yess, and there are some sceptical people, and most of the people...

    What TomBonnen2005 meant is the following: Imagine there is this surprise for the riders, that the moment they cross the finish, they are told it's still 5k of climb. If they had to keep driving then (Bernal having jumped away) Remco would possibly return to Bernal, not needing explosivity, but...

    What a strange finish. He lost the wheel of Almeida in the first part of the sterrato, I think he was suprised by the sterrato or something and immediately lost seconds, then got more used to it and stopped losing seconds getting from 13th to 4th. I don't think this shows him inferior to Bernal...

    The Pink Jersey is so close ... For me it seems more likely that Remco will be able to follow tomorrow, but that Bernal and 1 or 2 other followers will just take away the bonification seconds that will put Bernal in pink. If Bernal then turns out to be better in the high mountains and...

    My 10 wishes for Remco in order of importance: That he doesn't get injured again for a long time during the Giro by a fall or his old injury comes back to haunt him. That he has fun on the bike. That he gets better week after week That he rides a decent time trial again That he can follow in...

    The media keeps saying that the expectations of remco are too high, and maybe they are but isn't that kind of 'part of the game'? I will simply be happy just to see Remco back in the peloton! Results well we'll see, but just his presence makes me happy already.

    Maybe Algarve could learn us something: stage 2 win, stage 4 deep effort and becoming third, and the day after he won the ITT before Rohan Dennis. Not much but something that could indicate his daily recovery ...

    This really sounds like the dutch program 'foute vrienden' were some comics tell someone what to do in public domain, which results in hilarious situations, but very strange for the people who are involved but don't know about the comics. The same thing has been done with for example Mathieu Van...

    Ruben Van Gucht: 'insiders let us know that he is making serious values' Tom Steels: 'That's true, he's a huge talent, but there's a big difference between training and an actual race. The effort is different and he needs to get back the feeling of riding in a peloton. Maybe it won't be a...

    Masnada said 'Remco is a big champion ... he's fully recovered ... he's thinner and more motivated then ever ... he's super focust ... He will be strong at the start of the Giro ... ' He is right now on altitude stage with Remco and Almeida, so maybe he knows ... Just fun to hear such news.
