Re:

Roglic trolling sky

really, he's about to win a stage, good chance of a podium and you think he's only here to troll sky

Re: Re:

F****** Dumoulin. Worst of all the Tom's that graced cycling this century.

What the hell? So he should just let Roglic and his 2nd place go? Sit there with G who has a big margin and is the clear winner already?

Exactly some people just don't think at all.

It is not exactly rocket science to realise Dumoulin defends his 2nd place. Taking a clear path to 0.0% win chance deserves no respect however. You talk like the World Champion ITT with a healthy lead over Roglic Needs to be super afraid of him tomorrow.

How exactly would Dumoulin win the tour by sitting there with G and let Roglic go? And by the way it was him who attacked first before Roglic.

Re:

Is Primoz now the best descender in Cycling?

This descent is like 80-90% about watts and aerodynamics, so not based on this, no.

Sad day when a tour is won without the leader ever having to ride at the front.

Probably the least memorable leader in a while

 

[yetiyeti]

He's just hammering out of the corners.

Odd comment. He's won two stages including Alpe D'huez. Or did you conveniently forget that?

12s, Roglic gonna take Froome's 3rd place

Why is Dumoulin working?

 

[HelloDolly]

Re: Re:

Roglic super impressive for me.

I think he's going to be top tier in the coming years.

He has a lot more panache as a rider than Dumoulin who is just a big grinder.

Dumoulin is a great rider who with Froome completed a very very hard Giro

Ridiculous to count him out ..

 

[markene2]

Rogla is fantastic

Re:

Completely ridiculous

Re:

There is no best descender. If you read books and hear stories, sprinters go down hill like absolute mad men. It's very much a possibility we never see the ''best descender'' on tv because they're way back on the road.

 

[jsem94]

WTF is Majka doing?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Re:

His 2nd place is threatened. Because Roglic is a danger in the TT, even to him. This is perfectly logical.

 

[rainman]

Roglic amazing stage win

Re:

I can understand riding for a podium but there's not much difference between 2nd and 3rd

Re:

NO

Allaphillipe, Nibali , etc

 

[Aristarchus]

Zero reason for Tom to do any work here, yet....

 

[Panda Claws]

Dumoulin rides like he doesnt trust his TT at all.

Yeah, the best descender in the peloton is probably Sagan.

 

[Eclipse]

Big big from Roglic.

What a win

Re:

Well Roglic is in from of his life and he is not a bad tter after all

 

[Broccolidwarf]

What a rider Roglic is

He will be the main contender next year, if Lotto picks up a couple more guys to support, and leave Gronewegen at home
