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

It's also a job that Vingegaard never had, so utterly wrong to use it in reference to him.

I mean i assume Jonas isn't a carpenter either and that won't stop him. Technically hence Jonas can't say i will teach you to catch a fish and you won't be hungry ... He can still skin it though and the belly will still be full for a day. Close enough.

Anyway, Rogla's coach talked before the Giro how it's more difficult to get him into top shape because he struggles to get the highest quality training when he's at home. And if anything it seems to me he really enjoys racing but it's the altitude camps that are the biggest struggle.

Actually Rogla rather enjoys the training process by itself and as a whole, especially the altitude camps. The main problem this season in terms of GT racing and especially the Giro was crashes.

So his coach either didn't say that or is making it up?

Bro don't get this started again. There is no winning

What i said Rogla himself said frequently in interviews.

I agree, such baseless attempts did start to look rather foolish. IMHO.

Give a man a fish and he can eat for one day. Teach a man to fish and you can screw his wife while he's out fishing.

Makes sense, that is on why Jonas maybe wasn't allowed to go to the see, beats me. He did end up catching a rather big fish at the Tour, though.

Topcat, Ireland's no. 1 fishing guru for 30 years straight.

It seems that the Tour 2026 is tempting Rogla with La Planche des Belles Filles.

It seems that Vuelta 2026 is tempting Rogla with Teide.

Roglic is not riding anything before WC RR according to Belgian media

 

[acm]

I'm surprised that he's not doing WC ITT.

I'm surprised that he's not doing WC ITT.

This year, Slovenia has two places. Pogacar and him could do it.

If he doesn't do the ITT, I assume he won't be going to the road race. With that trip, it would be logical to to spend more days adapting and doing the time trial.

He's going to the RR.

Why no ITT?

I can only imagine on what will be going on in Belgian media around the Tour 2026.

What do you mean? Are they lying? Is Roglic riding another race before WC RR?

All i am saying is we should likely get used to taking it with a grain of salt, especially at the verge of the 2026 season. German media couldn't help themself either. It's normal. As for Rogla racing, we know that he is training hard for Andora.

Maybe say such things after it's been debunked. If they say the truth we don't need to take it with a grain of salt.

Nah, it's time to start preparing for it, German media was nasty too, you'll see.

What do you mean being nasty? What's nasty about saying Roglic isn't riding anything before WC RR?

@Berniece

For example they might go as far as to suggest liposuction. Just wait for it, it's inevitable. Sports media is a special kind of beast and being naive about it you will pay the price. But yeah, feel free to do it.

You are not answering my question. What's so bad about them saying Roglic isn't riding any race before WC RR? Why would they lie about that?

For me it's rather simple answer to that, it's the Belgium sports media, i don't trust them. Remco signing for RBH, that only further cements my stance. Rest assured that they will prove my point.

P.S. Note that i don't particularly blame them for it, it's rather understandable.

If this would be a YouTube video now we would insert an ad for Ground News. The idea if you take all the *** and mix it together, for it to somehow become a good hit. Doubtful, even with a grain of salt.
