    Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 10: Ennezat – Le Mont-Dore (165.3k)

    Well I don't think anyone believes being born near the stage finish or start gives them superpowers. Fact is, riders are motivated by such things.. just cause they are motivated won't make them better then others

    I don't really think he's boring. I like him fine, I'm not Danish. I just like some other riders better. I feel like there is a fair amount of middle ground between 'love him' and 'detest him'

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Sure, in theory he can. There's nothing to suggest anyone can 'crush' Pogačar right now.

    Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

    I mean, the fact that she wants him to do more dishes or whatever is fine. Probably not something anyone cares enough about to put in an interview but whatever, she gets to think that, being one half of that marriage .
