What a lovely day. Rode my bike, walked the dog, ate some good food, and it only cost me my title as ''cycling fan''.
This is my point, its hardcore cycling fans who have started to stop watching, this will hurt the sport next year.
You may be right, but it’s hard to find an accurate data point to substantiate that. Some of us have watched for 3-4 decades and have seen lots of unsavory years, but will still be watching next year.
This end-of-the-season Pogacar version looks even scarier than the Tour version. He'll attack from the gun in Strade winning by 10 minutes.
Crowds were amazing today and there is a whole new generation growing up who has riders like Pog, Remco and others to idolize. The sport will be fine. Doomsday profecies rarely ever come true.
He’s an emotional guy—I don’t think that means he’ was “broken.” I was thinking how significant it would be for him even getting 2nd when the accident here could easily have ended his career, and he knows that.
Probably Sante Maria on the hardest part as most times.
It makes San Remo (and as always Roubaix) the most interesting race on the Spring calender.
He was disappointed to finish 2nd but he looked good and was very strong as well. He could coast when it was clear he wasnt gonna gain back and went auto-pilot in the end. It was a good way to end the season for him as well with his first podium here.
Tadey Pogacar the best cyclist to ever step on a bike. Thank you for the show.
What a season its truly unprecedented chapeau Teddy.

We'll see, but for now there is this horde, this very loud minority that seems to find this exciting. Either way, I am going to make it very easy for myself: if he is riding, I ain't watching.
Giro del Veneto next week, proper ciclismo.
Yes, but he got his top 10 to go into the lead!!
True, but I don't think we can expect a 4-year-old to know about those details.
Its staggering that at the end of what is for me the best season ever in road cycling, Pogačar is still able to do what is quite possibly his best performance ever in a one-day race. Beating Remco by more than 3 minutes and everyone else by more than 4:30 just shows how much stronger he is at the moment which must be really demoralising for his rivals
Remco still doing a good race and although he was very far from Pogačar's level he gets another monument podium in a race where his career almost came to an end four years ago. He should be really proud of what he achieved during this season.
Ciccone finishes the season on a high note after some bad luck during his season with his first monument podium. Good to see Van Eetvelt back with a good performance after him getting sick during the Vuelta and shoutout to the teams that made the race harder by attacking on the first climbs and to Christen, Majka and Sivakov which during different moments of the race did a great job to hekp their team leader get his 25th win of the season.
Wishing all the best to Cataldo and Pozzovivo!

Another phenomenal performance from Pogačar, winning Lombardia in tremendous style with a long-range solo attack. The Slovenian won the race with a 3:16 margin of victory, which is the largest since Eddy Merckx won by 3:31 in 1971. The culmination of a brilliant season, the greatest by a single rider in the history of cycling. Chapeau sir!
Just managed to watch the replay. The attack was pretty much expected from Pog, but at least we had some good racing for the podium. Truly a remarkable season from Pogacar, no words.
It’s not exciting but it’s compulsive watching. The best cyclist of all time. I really hope he goes outside his comfort zone next year. Ride Roubaix. He could win it, and I’d love to watch.
Its history and its just amazing to witness indeed. To be able to witness the best cyclist of all time right infront of our eyes absolutely legendary stuff.
Loved Remco comments after aswell and I agree. What an era.Podium
Remco can’t expect to compete with UAE whilst riding for Soudal. They are just not strong enough in a climbers race. Visma or Ineos, maybe, but not Soudal. If he wants to compete with Pogačar he needs more support.
