Paris-Nice 2024, March 3-10

[bNator]

Negative racing by Roglic once again. Hopefully Remco and his squad put some work in the TTT so Roglic actually has to do something to win the race.

What would be positive racing in this case (where positive != stupid) ?

 

[DNP-Old]

Bennett there, @DNP-Old in shambles.

This 18th place will be remembered, unto eternity.

 

[Salvarani]

Roglic smart. He closed what he needed to.

Nothing to see here.

 

[how yes no?]

I understand why the world is getting stupider... being not stupid is regarded as being negative and we all know negative is not good.

 

[DNP-Old]

Netserk getting outplayed at his own game, you love to see it.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

The way he pulses like that in the saddle is F- ing amazing! He strung it out without even trying!! He is looking like he is going for the stage win if it doesn't clump up curb to curb at the end. The guy is his own leadout train!!

Reminds me of The Badger...now, we just need to find a protester for him to punch.

 

[AmRacer]

Rogla needs a few races to find his wheelsucking form.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Coming from the guy who calls Evenepoel 'the baby'?

And bambi. But I guess we shouldn't over nor underthink it.

Just take Bernal as an example. Someone that enjoys riding his bike and racing

 

[Unchained]

Why do fanboys get personal whenever someone is slightly critical of Evenepoel?

If Remco sells a line of men's underwear, a cookbook, or hair care products or cologne I am buying it!! Now that is personal!! I may even get something from Pizza Hut

 

[Netserk]

Coming from the guy who calls Evenepoel 'the baby'?

Yes, negative remarks on riders are perfectly fine. Not on other posters. You'd think the distinction was clear and easy to follow.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Yeah but if we overact to everything Roglic and Evenepoel do on here and in social media we can manufacture some drama, perhaps it will end up in that punch up we've always wanted to see.

'slightly critical'

What if Remco sells a line of women's underwear?

Sound response. Cooler heads prevail.

Well I think Roglic has earned his right to show his joy when he wants to and not when Bernal or Remco feel like it... He will, don’t worry.

 

[Unchained]

Funny I never thought of that but Hinault even now seems like such a ***!! Remco comes off like that a little!! I fantasize about someone loaning him a track bike at the Olympics.. He just has some mutant 5-10k power gene!!

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Kooij sitting in the right spot.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Stuyven stuck at the front far too early, underestimated the finish, Kooij picked the right wheel.

 

[DNP-Old]

Piffie!

 

[RedheadDane]

Kooij takes it ahead of Pedersen.

 

[Netserk]

'slightly critical'

Yes, it was a general comment (hence the "whenever"). It also covers remarks that are more than slightly critical, naturally.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Great finish design, thankfully low enough speeds thanks to the slight uphill to prevent a complete mess.

Kooij honestly not even that fast but in perfect position.

 

[Berniece]

Roglic can do what he wants, and we can criticise him whenever we want if he doesn’t feel like racing
