Remco vs Roglic

[Extinction]

Remco's so good that this small effort falls comfortably within his daily natural recuperation rate.

Therefore attacking was the optimal play.

I'd like to believe that, however, I still think he could make some tactical adjustments to his stage racing game.

The 4th biggest rivalry in cycling could end the forum this summer.

It's literally stage 1 of Paris nice , a sprinter stage, and we are already in meltdown over this two riders. In 2024 These guys are doing Paris nice, basque country, ardennes, dauphine , le tour and Olympics against each other

By the summer we will have nobody left, everyone will be already banned, or deleted their accounts to protect their remaining brain cells. The forum will just be red rick talking to himself about kelderman and giro stage profiles.

After all the arguements about the greats on this forum; nibali, contador, valverde, Bonnen, cancelara, Gilbert, Sagan, van Der poel, it will be the rivalry between a wheelsucking visma robot with no racing skills, and an arrogant and stupid belge teenegar that cries when he doesn't win, that will break this beautiful online space.

He isn't a teenegar or even teenager. He was once, though, but so were you and I. You should take a course on how time works.

Ilmaestro is stuck in a past, so Remco will always be an 18 year old vinegar (I assume that's what a teenegar is) in his eyes.

I thought it was Vineggggard that was a vinegar.

I would very much like to see what Ilmaestro's keyboard looks like, cause you get the feeling that some letters might be missing while others appear more than once.

Cycling Weekly have starting using the term ' Remglic' for this week's race.

Not Primovenepoel?

 

[Red Rick]

These rivalry names are so bad, but not every sport can have a Murderer rivarly

 

[DNP-Old]

The Baby vs. The Pacifier.

Rogco is way cooler.

 

[Berniece]

Rogco is way cooler.

The order is wrong since Remco will be winning this week /jk

The Baby vs. The Pacifier.

OMG, who came up with the baby? Kindergarden here we come, lmao. Next up "stupidhead" and "smells like poopycaca".

Yesterday it tipped. Till then I found the passion the remglic/rogco-fanclashs bring mostly entertaining since it spices up the race threads and often developes funny memes which not so much fanboys but pot stirrers manage to apply with impeccably funny timing, weight obsession vs. never attacks etc.
But yesterday I found myself just clicking through the threads same same but different stuff, every comment by every poster seemed predictable and just like going through the motions, analyzing if an utterance could possibly be spun as whining or a 2-second-loss is a sign of old age...and finally I even started to work instead of reading cyclingnews. Never happens to me, I swear.
I hope I will find the spark in this duel again. Maybe it's just that during PN it got a bit much and it will light up again sooner than later, maybe it's because many seem to cheer more for the misfortune of R1 instead of celebrating the success of R2; but if I loose interest even during a 1-week-race it doesn't bode well for the tour...

R1 (Remco) vs R2D2

@Cassirer

We both know that work doesn't stand a chance here, against knowing if one will finish in top ten and the other one in top five. Will there be more to it than that?

Relax.

Relax.

One of them is very much still in contention for the top spot in Paris-Nice, the other one too, but looks as if he might have to be happy with top 5, or even top 10.

 

[AmRacer]

I think Remco and Rogla are different kind of riders. It's better compare Remco with Poggi.

We'll see.

 

[Red Rick]

And the crowd goes absolutely mild

 

[Froome]

Remco Vs Roglic, and the winner is Mcnulty or Jorgenson.

 

[Extinction]

They, Remco, got out-foxed.

So, what costs you more time? Taking a wrong turn or a crash. By my calculations, a crash is precisely 12 seconds more costly, but I might be off by half a second or so.

I think you lose more by being careful and making sure that you don't make any errors.

And of course we shouldn't forget the time you lose by looking at a map.

A crash, it has an impact on your performance in general
