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

[acm]

Maybe i've said it before, but Rogla has a stricking similarity to Fun singer Nate Ruess

Omg, so true!

 

[CyclistAbi]

Imagine when he finds out he looks similar to that famous cyclist.

One problem here being usually you can't fish with bigger bait then the fish you are fishing.

When you have two of the biggest fish you can do what you want. Doesn't mean it'll work as a quick small fry might surprise you.

Mohorič had a big crash this morning on a bike. No news yet but they say it's serious. That's a huge blow for Team Slovenia RR.

Looks like Moho will still participate at the Worlds RR, saying something in the lines of a couple of stitches won't stop me.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Perhaps you should go to doctor and get that checked out, just to be safe.

I'm hearing Berlin, by the way.

The Metro, Sex, No More Words, or Take My Breath Away? (Only songs I know from Berlin.)

Yes, according to this Slovenian news outlet anyway he said he'll still do the Worlds RR, the article mentions he just got a few stitches. (Other news sites make it sound like he's on life support or something.) He'll be skipping the gravel, but hopefully he'll be ready for the RR on the 29th.

Matej Mohorič dobil nekaj šivov, a ne bo odpovedal SP

Ravno ko je na dirkah po Poljski in Renewi Touru Matej Mohorič pokazal dvig forme, je v Gironi grdo padel. Prejel bo nekaj šivov, a bo nared za Švico.

The last one is the only one I know.

Tomorrow, the legend returns!

 

[KZD]

To be honest somehow i am already focusing on Muro di Sormano, on where Rogla will likely win his first Il Lombardia. In regards to the worlds hence medals of any color will do just fine this year. Said that and while we are doing it, gold is obviously a realistic option too. You never know in cycling on how things turn out and for somebody like Rogla just being there, gold is in reach. Do we want Rogla in rainbow jersey at the Tour 2025 though? Immediate crash and off to Vuelta 2025 to follow? Or for the rainbow jersey to act as a shield, against all sci-fi scenarios that went on at the Tour since 2020. We'll see.

No Muro di Sormano in Il Lombardia route this year only Colma di Sormano and given the last editions, I doubt that Roglič will beat Pogačar there.

Call it hopium, but Pogacar and Evenepoel may both have a chunk of decompression after the World Champs.

And it would then be very Roglic to also somehow bottle it some random ends up winning.

Also, I've rejected the hopium for the ITT, I don't think he can medal at all and top 5 would be a good result.

Giro di Lombardia is Pogacar's home. I will be very surprised if someone can stay within a minute from Pogacar after Sormano.

I won't be.

While he has won it 3 years running, it's never been the level of destruction he has won other races by. Even Pog is tired by October.

I partially agree with you. However last year his win was dominant and this year, we can see how Pogacar is on a different level.

For sure it would help if the climb would be harder, help to drop Pogi, still it's on this climb on where the action will start and Rogla will shred the race apart.

New team, new monument.

He has never won Lombardia by a minute or more

Roglič: Popolnoma nič se ne obremenjujem z uvrstitvijo

Slovenija ima na svetovnem prvenstvu v kolesarstvu letos izjemno visoke cilje. V Zürichu bo na cestni dirki nastopila z zelo kakovostno ekipo, za začetek pa bo Primož Roglič v nedeljo lovil odmeven rezultat tudi v vožnji na čas.

So reckoning went well and Rogla rode on the descent twice as it's fast and technical. Flat sections will be decisive and Rogla still feels Vuelta in his legs but said that the plan for tomorrow is to push it to the limit and if achieving that he will be happy regardless of the result.

In hindsight, today's blow might prove not only unnecessary but also costly

It certainly seems a bizarre decision to race the time trial, especially with recent injuries, but I'll never hate on a rider for wanting to race

 

[Red Rick]

Costly how exactly?

The way he talked about it implied he thinks this is better for the road race cause he may not wanna go 3 weeks without racing before the road race. In additino, there's a full week between the TT and the RR now, unlike previously

 

[acm]

It was clear from the start that the focus just wasn't there. And as the results show this was a TT for pure specialists.

 

[zlev11]

he still beat some really good time trialists and only 18 seconds behind Stefan Kung is nothing to be ashamed of.

Kung didn't even do a good TT himself so that doesn't say anything.
