So you are saying that if Lidl Trek sign Ayuso, then there will no Milan or Pederson at the race. I suspect you are mistaken. And by the way Soudal had both Merlier and Remco, while red Bull had their GC riders and a sprinter.

To make it worse is the placement of the ITT. Have the ITT on stage 10 and then you create seperation on the GC>

Whole team means you have 7 support riders only helping the leader with no ambitions to do anything else. This does not fly in todays cycling and only the best like Pogarcar or Vingegaard come close to this scenario.

Dr Freeman was suspended by British anti-doping authorites for having Testogal on site at the British Cycling centre. He also lost his medical licence for matters relating to testogel. Do you really think Dr Freeman has more to offer?

Vos got past Bredewold with one metres to go, yet Bredewold fought back. And she was involved in a crash and rode back alone to the peleton. She was the strongest.

No team in their right mind will send a whole team to support Ayuso at the TDF. Too have this opinion is plain silly.

Its shaping to be a proConti team level in 2026, in saying that they should have budget to attack 2027. They are linked to Ackermann

Why do you think Jumbo chased stage wins at the TDF ? because UAE had the dominant rider and you need to get something from the race. It's the opposite at the Vuelta, where Jumbo have the dominant rider.

Holmgren showed at the Giro that she is a future GC winner. She gives me Vollering vibes.

Ayuso needs to learn to battle through when he having a bad day, as you will usually have one in a GT or otherwise, his GC is going nowhere.

And Vine is in the break. Its a stronger break today and should be more competitive if they make the final.

I find this a surprising transfer. Could have stayed at Jayco and been the number one or two sprinter.

Appleton came 2nd in the Pro Velo Super League in Australia in which the winner got a spot on the Liv Alula Conti team in 2026. Liv Alula will be crazy if they have not locked her up for the Conti or WT team. I'll also add Australia picked a poor team for the women's under 23 team for the...
