True, case in point the first stage and the freak accident at the Tour.

It was his second TdF victory. His first was when he dropped Contador on the Galibier.

Damn - now I feel like a bad fan
But the stage you mentioned is another example where he quite comfortably kept his advantage when going downhill, maybe even in increased it a bit during the more curvy upper part of the descent…
Another possibility is that his real problem is just peloton positioning and not bike handling per se.

I remember that to. AFAIK it was just some ski jumper from Slovenia.
P.S. Looking back. No wonder Rogla was so successful in Spain. During his early career.

Of course!
You need to find somewhere with a short steep finish.
Then you need to get Roglic to chase you while you go up said climb.
Instant Roglstomp!

The person wants to make it a bit tricky, so they should obviously try out artistic cycling.

On that faitful day in 2017, in the heart of the French Alps, on the slopes of the mighty Galibier the spirit of Contador left his aging body and latched himself on the nearest living being. It was in this moment that the old vessel of Contador was dropped while a rider named Primož Roglič suddenly felt a surge of wild energy flowing through him, stood up on his pedals and danced ahead to conquer a mythical beast. And thus a legend was born!

At the same time the older legend decided to quit cycling when he realized that even ski-jumpers can ride faster than him.

Then later Contador almost came out of retirement when he realised said ski jumper wasnt too bad himself
Im starting to be a little tired of the " The monster Wout is chained by Roglic a he can win this" trend of most fans, so I admit that I want to see Rogla crushing him today even before the hard stages. .
....and Wout leaving the race Superman style?Im starting to be a little tired of the " The monster Wout is chained by Roglic a he can win this" trend of most fans, so I admit that I want to see Rogla crushing him today even before the hard stages.
Me too. Wout is great, a power house. And can win TTs, sprints, MTF, you name it. But in a 1 to 3 week long races...my money would always be on Roglič (just don't crash please).Im starting to be a little tired of the " The monster Wout is chained by Roglic a he can win this" trend of most fans, so I admit that I want to see Rogla crushing him today even before the hard stages.

Usually you start by training on a small ski jumping hill. Yep, that would be my advice.
