Bound to sign with an Australian team and rake in those millions!He’s still riding the hype from a year ago
can't tell if serious. The climbs in this race seem a lot closer to the Koppenberg than penas blancasNot convinced by Van Der Poel tbh, his climbing hasn't been that good and just because he beat some random Kermesse riders and Lidl-Trek with some of the worst tactics I've ever seen in my life in a flat cobbles race, helped by a massive tailwind, doesn't mean he can go toe-to-toe with top shelf riders like Richard Carapaz, Benjamin Healy and Juan Ayuso on races with this kind of climbing. He has a good chance if it's passive and comes down to a sprint, 2019 was 5 years ago.
I can tell if Tim is serious. Here's a hint: he's not.can't tell if serious. The climbs in this race seem a lot closer to the Koppenberg than penas blancas
We've gotta drum up some hype somehow, get a bit of copium in the veins, everyone already acting like it's a done dealI can tell if Tim is serious. Here's a hint: he's not.
Are there any circumstances under which we could actually have a race instead of a beatdown of the kids by MVdP?
He will win AGR by over an hour and he has a chance in LBLWe've gotta drum up some hype somehow, get a bit of copium in the veins, everyone already acting like it's a done deal
He was poor on the climbs in the Tour last year, a bit heavier perhaps, maybe tired from Roubaix, elevation gain is much higher here than Flanders.
He's the favourite but not by anywhere near as much as he was in Flanders/Robaix imo, Liege not a chance.
Van Gils is a guy to watch for me too. He was really impressive in Strade and i do believe his been just training after MSR which dont really suit him. If his Strade performance is anything to go by I think he can really podium here.My wild prediction is that Maxim Van Gils will win this, since no one will expect him.
To make room for Leknessund.Why no Ayuso in the poll?
I really don't get that either..why is jasper riding this race...?
I was high as a kite when I made it. Errors are possible.Why no Ayuso in the poll?
Because Alpecin is that ridiculous right now.why is jasper riding this race...?
I honestly thought Pogacar was riding Amstel and so the winner was sure.
But now it seems he isn't on the start list, MvdP will win this bike race.
ps: I still see Remco on the start list: what's going on?

Being unable to gesture wildly, Remco‘s only occupation would be to solo away from everybody, making him unbeatableI honestly thought Pogacar was riding Amstel and so the winner was sure.

Because they have the highest amount of accumulated points throughout their career amongst starters in this race, which is prioritised over amount of points currently.He's been removed.
I'm just confused about why the preview text still claims the top competitors are Fuglsang, Matthews, and Mollema.
