Teams & Riders Everybody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives

[Rackham]

I'm convinced this man is the Jack Sparrow of pro cycling.

My current theory is Rogla took part time job posing as a T.rex for SOQ.

No wonder he's my favourite rider then

I hope Roglic wins just to beat Kuss. But It would also complete my audacious prediction made last year that Visma would not win a Grand Tour this year

 

[Oldermanish]

Glad to see him getting on well with his former teammates. Agree he looks super lean, that has got to be promising for the Vuelta.

They should get along with him. He pretty much left it out there for every race and they prospered. They all probably wonder when Jonas will have time for a beer.

I'm convinced this man is the Jack Sparrow of pro cycling.

He is a racer at heart and would deserve about 2 seasons of no mishaps. It'd be good to enjoy a healthy campaign or more just to see what he'd achieve.

Visma will not win this GT. Roglic wouldn't want to be part of your revenge scenario at Kuss' expense because he's a racer's racer.
If he were me when an old team backwashed my future he might like to see every decision maker that screwed him over lose their jobs. That's me; he's much nicer than I am.

Nothing better than making the dillettante strategists pay for hubris.

Visma doesn’t drink per their boss.

 

[Oldermanish]

Visma doesn’t drink per their boss.

That would be a problem. The pious among my young teammates would tut-tut when I had a beer at pre-race dinner between stages.
Then they'd be irritated when they heard I'd had a tequila shot, beer and desert at the bar after they went to bed. Didn't change a thing on outcome but I slept better.

He obviously got delayed from all the high fives.

What is it? It's a paid site.

I didn't pay a cent, just created an account a few months ago.

It links to paid site but you can also jsut see it on twitter. Roglic' bike doesn't have a shiny coating on it, saving 90 grams.

Big *** deal right there

This "new" TT bike weighs less than 7,4 kg. His Cervelo last year was more than 8,1 kg.

All Roglic needs now is to be on a zero fiber, stool softener, and alcohol free diet and he can replicate Vingegaard’s TT from last year. Truly taking trade secrets from Visma.

Velo asked if he thought he had the legs to win the Tour?

“If it’s for the win, I wouldn’t say so,” he said. “I don’t know, for the podium, I would have given it a try.“

Can Primož Roglič Win the Vuelta a España? Even He's Not Sure: 'I Still Feel Pain'

Roglič will be hoping back pain eases across the Vuelta and he can save his grand tour racing season: 'We have to be realistic.'

[CyclistAbi]

So a bit of a back pain is still there, due to one can't speed up the rehabilitation process. Normally it would take couple more weeks, around the time Vuelta ends. So on how the body will respond is a bit of an unknown. Beyond that the spirit is high.

Go Rogla!

Now if you drank a bottle of Jack like Floyd did you would crush the next day.

He just posted a photo where he lost his front tooth. What happened this time?

he ran across red_flanders in a dark alley

 

[Lequack]

Holy cow, what was he doing indeed. Ran into some Vinge fans?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Reminds me of my account signature… I didn‘t do it, though.

 

[red_flanders]

I'm right-handed and I'd go for the chin.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahabahahaha

It proved to be a dead end:

He found a way not to fall off the bike.
