    Tom 'Pidders' Pidcock

    Awesome from Pidcock, I hope he can maintain this level all season. Considering all the talents people talk about, it'd be incredible if it's Tom who's the only one able to seriously challenge Pogacar.

    Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

    I'd like to see him and Pogacar share a couple more Tour wins/podiums between them, in a way it would add more to Pogacar's legacy/legend than a repeat of the last couple of years.

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

    It looks like Vingegaard still very much has it, and with the rise of Del Toro, and possibly more so, Seixas, is it likely we'll never see Remco win the tour? Or even another grand tour?

    Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

    I feel he gets overlooked due to Pogacar's domination, but it's great to see him showing he's still one of the best two stage racers of this generation.

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

    Has he? Aside from TTs in Grand Tours?

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

    It's a more difficult sport for Remco. Has Tadej ever suffered a mechanical? Would Tadej ever ride his bike into a hole in the road and have his saddle drop? He seems to have some sort of natural ability to avoid any of these problems. But funnily enough, I actually think the hardest problem...

    Yes, he appears to be. What point are you trying to make?

    Teams & Riders The Big 6

    If Pogacar believed he could beat Evenepoel in a TT then he'd have attempted to at the last two World Championships. There are some specific conditions where Pogacar will probably beat Evenpoel, such as at the end of a three week race. However, TT's at the end of a grand tour do not define who...

    His Paris victory was one of the highlights of the Olympics? I wonder how many more followers he gained on social media afterward?

    It's gotta be the second victory? I'm a cycling fan and I don't even know how to watch the Amstel Gold Race.

    Teams & Riders Brothers in (crank) arms - Yates Discussion Thread

    I've said it before, on their day, few can match them up a hill. What could've been if they'd managed to remain consistent.

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Kuss only won because he was on the same team as Roglic and Vingegaard

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Does Pogacar make excuses? He doesnt seem like the sort to do so. His form must be on a downward trajectory, I imagine his peak was a few weeks ago at Flanders. I expect him to be somewhere close, but I'm not sure he's favourite over Evenepoel. It's part of what makes it easy to be a fan though...

    Tom 'Pidders' Pidcock

    Did anyone watch his post race interview? He seemed really disappointed, almost stunned, that'd he'd been beaten by Pogacar. Maybe he has too much belief in his own hype? Did he think he could just ride off and drop Pogacar?
