More Frenchies to Ineos?

Unironically first thing that came to mind for me. :D But I suspect recency bias is strong with this one. Others that came to mind immediately were Milan-Sanremo and Amstel. I don't really care much about Pog one way or the other except that he usually makes bike racing incredibly boring to...

Good to see CheckMyPecs doing well for himself.

Any news on possible new teams/renewals for Rui Costa, Wout Poels and Ben Swift? Or will we have even more high-profile retirements.

#FreeWolfpack!

And Hayter's points actually mean something for you, as you are sandwiched between two hayters. Of course it will be a minor miracle if he doesn't somehow scew this race up in the remaining stages. Söderqvist is turning out to be an unexpectedly okay pick for you. And he's thankfully on his way...

That was some useless wear on my keyboard.

Wrong thread. Should be in 'Worst of race profiles'. Quintuple Zoncolan is pretty brutal this late in the season when most riders just want to go on holiday.

Thanks for the update! So SafeBet didn't outscore Salvarani and myself as much as I thought although it's still a resounding weekly win. So 1st place is pretty much settled. There's technically a chance for me to re-overtake SafeBet if Vine wins Chrono des Nations, but Tarling is also doing...

'The Enric Mas of the CQ game' might not be the title I'm coveting the most.

Haven't checked the website as I like to await skidmark's updates, but I think @SafeBet is pretty sure to knock me down from 2nd place. Which is all fine by me, as I don't really need ANOTHER 2nd place to add to my three previous 2nd places. And a 3rd place would complement all the 2nd places...

I'm speachless.

Just got around to watching the WC RR. Shall we rename this thread 'Juan Ayuso is the new Ben O'Connor'?

Maybe where I differ from others here is that I don't think Piganzoli will ever be good enough to lead a Giro on a team like Visma. I think he will not go much beyond a fringe top 10 rider, and I don't like those guys being 2nd to last in some superteam mountain train, especially not when it's...

Piganzoli confirmed to Visma. Slightly strange transfer from his perspective. Would have been much more fun to have him as a Giro striver on a smaller team rather than as a cog in the Visma machine. But I guess he goes for the paycheck, which is fair enough.
