Well normal Alpe d' Huez is by no means a bad MTF, and its absolutely great for spectators, especially when they are doing it twice. Nothing wrong with that IMO. I hoped stage 5 and 17 would be a bit harder, but its possible that we will see some action into Pau and stage 17 might just be a...

Not too bad, but once again, ASO really fails in regards to including proper time trials. Is stage 5 to Pau a pure sprint stage? Stage 17 looks more versatile sprinter/break for me, and stage 21 obviously is more of a versatile sprint as well. So (hopefully) just 4 pure sprint stages which, if...

Some exceptional win farming by Magnier this second half of the season. Kinda wish he just comittied to it from the start of the season instead of doing actual races just to show how ridicously easy it is for sprinters to win if all they care for is the win total. The consistency is pretty...

He will, but the problem with riding with Pogacar still is that Pog is doing most if not all of the big races, at least when it comes to the hilly classics, and you still want a rider like Del Toro to get the chance. I think he pretty much only left CSS on the table which he continously will be...

I have just seen you write some write pretty out there stuff in regards to Remco v Pog, so I thought you were being serious.

Yeah right, only reason he didn't follow Pogacar.

Evenepoel the far better rouleur here obviously

Well this is the type of racing that people prefer to races opening up 100-120 k out. Think about that!

I think thats what you want, but UAE shouldn't give a rats ass about other teams at all.

He will definitely gain more than 2 minutes, but its still stupid to risk Simmons getting over Ganda with Pog

I dont understand this strategy from UAE. Why take the chance?

Here's hoping Majka will get a role after retiring

But he didn't, and that was part of their defensive strategy throughout. Roglic lost 2020 fair and square, sothats out of the question IMO. He lost to the better rider - maybe not psyshically, but strategially and mentally Pogacar was better overall. Pogacar even lost time for no reason and had...

No guarantees, but 2019 is the obvious answer if you have to pick one. With a full route and no shortenings/cancellations, I think Bernal wins the race in the Alps though. Never convinced by Roglic's high mountain climbing which favored Bernal late in a GT.

Thanks buddy, will miss you all in the offseason!
