Wow that would be a huge development for his career considering his history in one week races. We need someone to step up and get closer to the aliens. I still have nightmares from Pogi at Catalunya two years ago

Can you imagine some poor guy retiring from the chair factory at age 59 and catching heat for being 'unprofessional'?

It's almost as if you're describing today's peleton if you just go by the results.

ya, against Wout who unfortunately always manages to stuff it up against MVDP. He's also lost to Asgreen and Pedersen in some big moments

You're right! He did. And in fact gave one of the best press conference answers ever at a Giro presser 5 or so years ago No wonder he's usually quiet, cant put your foot in your mouth

I'm not in denial that this could be a 2nd doping offense but I have to also give him benefit of the doubt. An old school guy, already said what a PITA it is with the new training methods, then his big goal of the season gets rug-pulled from him. I can see him saying *** this, I'm not putting...

We can choose to believe him or not, but top sportsmen have the leverage to force their way out of a contract. The $30M lawsuit was always a gross negotiating threat. But whether sporting reasons, moral or money, he pushed his way out of IPT as is his perrogative. Yes there is some minimal...

Just watched the men's race today, what a spectacle! I just hope Nys and Del Grosso stay with cx for many years as it looks like they are head and shoulders above the rest and will continue to be for years

4th post is early. Are you one of those that get mad when more people start listening to your fav indy band?

I'm not buying it

the urine tossing has gotta be ***. nobody is going thru the logistics of that when they can just dump beer on him. Was any urine tossing episode ever proven true? As in a conviction or someone admitting they did it? Beer and piss look pretty much the same

Ya, concerning. I've seen his youtube channel he spoke about core work and strengthing his back while commenting its not his favorite thing.... Cyclocross social podcast covered this in recent days too, saying its something he needs to address before it gets worse or possibly derails a season...
