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

Why not do fleche man there is literally nobody to win it without him, we gonna get like skejmose vs Vlasov. Last 2 years he skipped spring races to focus on Le tour, it didn't go well

Different year, different prep. The strategy changes with the Playas.....

Without the crash he would definitelly race. But with a sore knee (we all know how things went when he raced Itzulia 2022 with an injured knee) the risk is a lot higher.

On the other hand I think that with top-form Vinge out of the picture and Pogačar doing the Giro, the team and Roglič thought, damn, we actually have a good chance at the Tour. Now let us do everything possible to maximize that chance.

I do regret him not being at F-W, because it would be a crime for him to not win that at least once in his career. For LBL I am more indifferent. He has already won it once and realistically, there is no way he is beating pre Giro Pog on a 250km monument. I was hoping he might add Romandie, but healing all the injuries is the priority.

Dauphine route is very nice, and with no Vinge and questionable a Remco (will he even go there now, or will he rather just prepare for the Tour?), it is a perfect chance to build some confidence, get a win or three under the belt and prepare for the big one in July.

True, but what about the strategy to provide us with the racing we want to see? They are not taking our entertainment seriously enough!

Thankfully it has been scientifically proven that alcohol can cause incoherent thoughts and clouded judgement

You should start an Amstel thread.

You should start an Amstel thread.

Ilmaestro‘s peak race is Flèche, he should make a thread for that.

I believe that's what's referred to as a moment of clarity in between the foaming at the mouth mutterings about belgian spilak and slovenian pozzato

Meanwhile when I'm sober I sometimes think topcat and llmaestro are the same poster then when i'm piss drunk I realise they're different people

It's a common misconception. We do travel under the same bio-passport but we're two independent free-minded liberals fighting the good fight in a chauvinistic world.

At last! We find Tyler's chimera twin set! Both convinced they are totally OK.

Is this a new version? I'm dead!

Have it on good authority Primoz' improv line of "this is the most stupidest thing" was cut from the final product, much to Rogla's chagrin

Why is the cyclist not cooking a shoe?

Because he doesn't have the winning recipe.

Honestly that add is so pervasive. I'd want an oven that simple that cleans itself lol. But it's not cheap

 

[Gargamel35]

I think i understand this now. Primož never wanted to leave Jumbo, but Lora (his wife) saw all this new shiny Bora kitchen appliances and demanded he moves to Bora Hansgrohe so she can get them for a good discount. They also promised to teach Primož how to cook and new Hansgrohe taps were offered under the table.

It was Lora all along!

Where's the child?!

Roglic is so weird in that he can look like he has a fat ass on the bike and then you put him in normal human clothes and he looks like Bonesy from anatomy practice.

I know the fact of Roglic being a former ski jumper has been brought up countless times, but it's really only when I see pictures like this when I truly realize it. Seeing him and Prevc just being old buddies still feels so surreal.

 

[how yes no?]

The subject is interesting with the side-by-side pictures with a ski jumper in what we can assume almost prime condition weight wise, having finished the career a month ago... because I remember Roglič being much happier with transition to cycling because as he said at the time "you don't have to care about eating too much"... but now he looks leaner than a ski jumper... poor Roglič, didn't know what he signed up for after all I guess.

I think he still eats a lot more than he used to, except now he burns much more calories on his typical training day than he did when he was a ski jumper. But yeah, he does look leaner than Prevc who won his last World Cup event a month ago, so he’s still as lean as they get…
