A place to discuss and compare the three most talented GC riders amongst the new generation.
Bernal: the man for long climbs at high altitude
Pogacar: the man with climbing punch and a Contador attacking attitude
Evenepoel: not a man but a god ;-)
These three riders will likely rule the GTs over the next decade.
For me, who ends up on top at the end for history's sake, will largely depend on the direction that GT routes take.
For instance, I can see Pogacar winning this year's tour as it fits his talents, just as last year's fit Bernal's.
I hope for a return to some equilibrium in ITT to MTF in GTs. If so Remco will rule.
However, I am happiest that a 20, 21 and 22 year old can (again) be mentioned as favorites in pro cycling. I take this as extremely good news on many levels.
