I think those are all valid points.
I also think they don't have a rider who could have won today, whatever the team makeup, allocations, or tactics.
The Vuelta never countsHe won a Grand Tour two years ago but for various reasons people decided that didn't really count.
@CyclistAbi look at this!The Vuelta never counts
Congratulations on making sure this thread goes to 50 pages.@CyclistAbi look at this!
I don't think mvdp takes that long to recover from a one hour effort. The bigger risk would be yet another crash, and injury.Are you really hedging your bets by possibly losing to Pidcock in the MTB then being gassed for the road race?
No. Even if Evenepoel were to win the WCRR, Pogi would still be ahead. So as it currently stands, it's a bit far-fetched for that to end up close.Does this mean we need Velo d'Or thread now?
I think even if Evenepoel wins the WC double and Lombardia, we still don't need a thread.No. Even if Evenepoel were to win the WCRR, Pogi would still be ahead. So as it currently stands, it's a bit far-fetched for that to end up close.
I think it wouldn't be unreasonable to make a poll after that.I think even if Evenepoel wins the WC double and Lombardia, we still don't need a thread.![]()
I am glad that race officials observed professional observation of rules and the spirit of the rules. Just on the limited camera shots had riders holding on to cars and drafting off of vehicles. Had amateur rules been observed and applied fairly, multiple riders would have been disqualified.This is one of the legendary moments in the career of motopacing cycling club
It's ok I'd spotted that and knew what race you meantThe *** I meant to post this in the women's ORR thread now I just look like a salty *** again
Salty ain't bad..and if you are posting in gals area..The *** I meant to post this in the women's ORR thread now I just look like a salty *** again
Looked way too chilled for an Olympic race, but ok the podium was long gone at this point in the race.
It was the belgian teamtactics that Van Aert had to go or react on the cobbled hill and Evenepoel on the two other climbs. Which both executed perfectly. So, who has 0 wheel knowledge (of cycling) ? It's you, I think.Evenepoel at the back of the peloton when everybody knows MVDP will attack. He has 0 wheel knowledge
Because Belgian commentators are experts and exactly know how it works.Are Belgian commentators asking why Jorgenson does not work for Wout?
He did work with VDP after VDP's first attack.Van Aert getting all he asked for for not working with MvdP
