That is a proper Giro-Tour look!

Let's wait for some long range defence.

 

[CyclistAbi]

I like it, confidence when it comes to the announcement, determination involved and most importantly it looks like great team support involved on both GTs.

First rider to avoid Pogacar.

AFAIK Pogi hasn't decided yet, nor have Jonas or Remco, about Giro. As for the Tour, over there top guns can't avoid it anyway. Fireworks guaranteed.

 

[Rob5091]

Giro and Tour? Nah, don't get it. Sounds like a "committee decision".

 

[veganrob]

Good Primoz! Reach for the sky. Don't be scared of anyone.

Rogla already wanted to try this combo riding for Visma and was denied. So i do believe it's his intimate decision to do it and obviously the team agreeing, especially considering the level of team support at play.

Best combo.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Plan is clearly to crash out of both Giro and Tour then superpeak for Spain.

Very good foresight from Bora with Pogacar going to La Vuelta he will need to be at his best.

 

[CyclistAbi]

@Tim Cahill

After the double the plan is to peak for Worlds.

How many years it was i wanted to hear Giro-Tour roglification. And now finally i got it for Christmas.

Thank you.

Did you read what roglification means?

Rogla is ruthless on the bike and a nice person off the bike, many team member confirmed that in the past. I have no real issues with that. Do it Rogla roglify Pogi, Jonas, Remco ...

Everbody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives.

The floor has felt too much of Rogla's ruthlessness.

Sure, but that's not what your link says.

Roglification
You have been "roglified" are about to achieve something great, and at the very last moment a cold-hearted ruthless person comes along and takes it from you.

So in the context of what you said, you are happy Roglic would ride Giro-Tour double but eventually something bad will happen which means he won't do that.

 

[CyclistAbi]

@Berniece

I see what you mean, for Rogla to be roglified. There was plenty of that involved in the past too, with age you embrace such moments with arms wide open. The warmth and unsettling feeling of the hit that comes with it reminds you you are still alive and you still learn something new, each time. Hard to ask for more.

So yeah, roglification guaranteed!

Roglic doing a video for the Giro tells me he got a nice paycheck, good for him.

Also he made the right choice by going ahead and basically telling Vingegaard that it won't be an easy Giro to win. A Giro where Vinge might have to take risks to win might not be a good option for him. Roglic has far less to lose.
Overall a good choice although the lack of Suisse is saddening, he will probably go next year.

This is probably the most logical explanation. Standard Vuelta "preparation" may be not enough as both Teddy and Vingo can start there. This "super-preparation" should do. Vuelta #5 incoming!

 

[Ilmaestro99]

What is this Mickey mouse program, only doing calalunyta before the giro. One of the best punchejr this century, stop ducking the Ardennes classics man

 

[CyclistAbi]

Marked:

• Volta ao Algarve em Bicicleta (65 days)
• Volta Ciclista a Catalunya (98 days)
• Giro d'Italia (144 days)
• Tour de France (201 days)

He can't race many races every year any more so he needs to pick and choose.

He also can't win Tour with both mutants there so why make it a nr. 1 goal. It's a bonus like he said. Giro is better for him and both mutants won't race it this year i hope.

Vuelta is probably out this year because at least one mutant will go there.

Mutants is correct. Pog vs Vinge reminds me of Contador vs Rasmussen…

Can somebody tell me what Roglstomp is and what language it is a part of please?

When Rogla stomps the pedal and leaves you in the dust.

 

[CyclistAbi]

This is what it is or to say it blunt Roglstomp is getting f from behind. (sorry abi but someone had to tell him what it is)

Well, you do need to be a legend, for fandom to remember it like it was yesterday, half a decade latter.

Nop.

Rogla: the only hope left for humanity.

He was there when the best of all time began, theres zero shame in that honestly.
Roglic will forever be a true legend for many reasons

 

[CyclistAbi]

@James M

I know, as a matter of fact he delivered that baby and as such he likely is GOATs godfather. One reason on why he will be remembered as a true legend indeed is Rogla is one of the select riders that has beaten the GOAT on GTs. But lets not use the term GOAT too much in this thread, better to refer to Rogla as Bull. Considering his age he can even get away with dad jokes:

"He asked me how old I was and told me that at 21 he was still ski jumping" - Primoz Roglic takes Giulio Pellizzari under his wing at Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe

Giulio Pellizzari was one of the breakout stars of the 2024 Giro d'Italia. Although a stage victory proved illusive, the Italian repeatedly shone in the high mountains and earned himself a World Tour...
