He’s going to ”focus” on collecting rent?

First building, then collecting rent

I thought it was a pun on him riding Focus bikes, but BORA hasn't used them for ten years.

Paweł Poljański (BORA) retired - allegedly he had offers from WT teams, but with a lot lower salary than in BORA, now he will focused on being landlord

I was wondering how NTT or UAE did not offer him a contract, I guess that makes sense.

He was prominent in breaks and an outside bet for winning in lesser breaks (he was twice second in Vuelta stages and has several Top10 finishes in other breaks), as well as being a reliable domestique.

Isn't Kwaitkowski also a landlord/someone who invested a lot of his money into buying real estate?
I remember hearing about him letting health workers who got Covid-19 live there for free during the first wave of the pandemic in Poland.

Huh? Referring to some instance where he could have won a stage, but didn't?

No, cause he could never have won that stage. But he did think he had, for 5-15 seconds.

Lots of riders have mistakenly thought they've won something.

Yeah, but I mostly remember Pibernik for that occasion, and I would have loved to see him get a big win after that, but it wasn't to be. Slovenia didn't suffer too much though.

Indeed.

"Giro stage winner" Luka Pibernik has decided to call it quits after failing to find a new contract.

A shame for him that the TdF doesn't use national teams any more. Slovenia would be the strongest team.

 

[Roku]

Lots of riders have mistakenly thought they've won something.

He won a stage in Eneco Tour, though, so at least he was able to celebrate something. Funny enough (i just re-watched the final sprint of that stage), he never lifted his arms in that stage.
