    Who will be the next new tour de France winner ?

    Who would not want the goodies first before they pay? You got it backwards in my opinion. Give Remco 100km of ITT. The problem is that Pogacar is here and he was not in '12, I get that. But that Tour was taylor-made for Wiggo. Be real.

    Who will be the next new tour de France winner ?

    Wow! Surprised by the results of the poll so far. I want Paul to win it too. But realistically. all it takes for Remco is less high mountains and more ITT. Can Belgium throw as much money at ASO as the UK did?

    Yeah, the Black Album, I loved that signature and the Rujano avatar...quoted it many times :cool:. Even trolled Netserk with them. A classic... I just wonder if it's mental for Ayuso. You can't possibly peak at 22. But again, I would not overact. It's February, some riders are just getting into...

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    Very solid performance from Paul today. Joao looks a bit undercooked, which can happen so early in the season. Still, Seixas piles up top finishes. Impressive. Can he win the whole thing? As it was mentioned, no matter how good he is, Seixas may be unable to beat Pogacar and a new Pogacar may...

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    Hilarious post. I imagine that AI would give a rider with Hinault's record at age 20 a 1% chance to win a Tour...and by the way, Remco is not done. I would not give up on him. Simply put, I'd rather trust my eyes than AI. Overhyped? Meh. You are new on this forum: trust me, the Betancur thread...

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

    1478 pages later...well, can Remco win ONE TdF? Forget the Merckx stuff. I believe in him more than in Jonas, whose ship was wonderful but it has sailed. Cheering for Remco, class-act and I believe that he hasn't reached his prime. Allez Remco! Only he can slain the dragon.

    Mikel Landa Discussion Thread

    Giro. Like Tibo. Top-5. Maybe better. He's an attacker and can provoke his destiny. Last crack at a GC. A Jersey. A Stage. I check "all of the above". Allez Mikel!

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    Very impressed. I re-watched the 40-30km to go ten times now, the grit omg. He dug deep. And taking the inside of hairpins may have cost him, but that's fearless. Paul had nothing to lose and fell a little short, but he gave it a crack, the moment wasn't too big, first monument, just 19, amazing.

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    After such a performance, I too get a bit carried away. I can see a top-5 in Lombardia to cap off Paul's season. For the future, it will come down to AG2R resisting the pressure from ASO and the media: not get him to the Tour too early. I like the Giro idea for next year, or in '27. Paul...
