The Legend of Landismo is like The Odyssey, written from one side.If only that had been what actually happened.
However he did let Carapaz win the 2019 Giro.

This is the correct answer.If we consider the whole peloton, the correct answer is obviously Mikel Landa.
You don't say!I don't think he - as in, the real Froome, not the user - really qualifies as "good" any longer.
Froome is a legend!
Most overrated pack filler, then.I don't think he - as in, the real Froome, not the user - really qualifies as "good" any longer.
Dude it's not 2022 anymoreIts betwen Remco or Wva i cant decide who.
Pidcock and Daniel felipe Martinez are way more overrated than him.It's sad to say but VWA is actually really grabbing for this nomination. Not only because this last accident, but overall kinda Dumoulinesque shadow growing steady.
To me it seems like 95% of cycling fans see Van Aert as exactly the 6th best rider in the world which is exactly what he is I think, so i nthat regard I'd argue he may be the most correctly rated rider in the world.It's sad to say but VWA is actually really grabbing for this nomination. Not only because this last accident, but overall kinda Dumoulinesque shadow growing steady.
This is an absurd post. Go away.It's sad to say but VWA is actually really grabbing for this nomination. Not only because this last accident, but overall kinda Dumoulinesque shadow growing steady.
I voted Pidcock and I'd vote him again but I'm only allowed one vote. Ilmaestro and I should have multiple votes as we are top posters.You can still change your vote.
I think rider levels are just so well known and calcified right now it's harder to be very overrated. In 2022 I could just gone 'Evenepoel, Van Aert, Carapaz' instantly and now i'm just like "eeeeeehhhh De Lie I guess?'Most years I would have voted for Pinot.
I don't really think any of the guys in the poll are overrated and I'm struggling to understand how Ayuso even makes this list given his results at 21.
De Lie has had a tough year so far but he's also young and his struggles haven't gone on long enough to call him overrated.
My vote has to be Jay Vine. I get that the guy has some bad luck but he DNFs more stage races than he finishes.
I like Pidcock but the hype on Discovery+ is annoying as hell. Mind you, they mention Fred Wright just as much…I can see the argument for Girmay.
For Ayuso, if he doesn't deliver this year the hype will end pretty soon.
With Pidcock it's really more the English speaking media overhyping him as a road cyclist. That said, if he actually focusses more on road cycling he can get a lot better as a stage racer.
