Ugh, not this again.

Is Logic no longer your friend? Logically last year is not this year.

Is Logic no longer your friend? Logically last year is not this year.

Logic says that the "cycling year" has come to pass. And that everybody knows very well from the context what his meaning was.
But maybe it was just a typo, after all, the P is close to the L on many if not most keyboards.

This time "last season" was mentioned, not "last year". Since the season already ended quite a while ago, I would say it's safe to call it last season, as it literally is the last finished season.

I'll stick to calendar years, much easier.
So, Pogacar won the TdF this year and last year.
He won LBL and Lombardia this year.

Whatever makes you happy.

EDIT: i see they are still cycling in a few countries, so technically the season/year isn't over, so...

Well, you can hardly fault anybody for referring to this year by saying "this year".

Always having to intentionally misunderstand people because they refer to this year by "last year" is another matter.

Technically the 2022 season began on November 1st, so claiming a 2021 race happened last season isn't wrong.

Then UCI are frikkin' weirdos too!

Yes, they are the weird ones...

 

[CyclistAbi]

Technically it is 2007.

PS I've saved that photo for liberal usage during the 2022 season.

Ah, the GOAT. Too bad those dweeps in front are blocking a clear view.

Loool, I initially though it was some 50+ yo guy and only a fraction of a second later I realized it was Pogacar.

Pep: Hey, we are looking for a winger with infinite stamina and your contract with the sheikhs obliges you to play for City sometimes.
Pog: No problem, I'm available until February and in May. How can one even get tired during such easy workouts?

I thought, "yeah maybe you can have Bernardo Silva as a mountain dom next year as he won't be busy with the Portugal national team".

[Krzysztof_O]

Loool, this is too good. Who is the guy who is threatening Pogi?
-You are becoming fat and slow, they will crush you in the Premier League!
Pogi:
-Shut up, even now I produce more watts than your entire family combined.
Pep:
-Relax! He's a killa, he will make them look like amateurs.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Pep: Don't be telling the boy what to do when we all know that if you cut off this wisp of hair you would achieve aerodynamic gains. We need to save watts too.

So you're saying a failed footballer and a failed skijumper are your biggest competition?

Look in his trophy cabinet.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Pep should rather sign Alaphilippe; the ultimate tiki-taka cyclist.

 

[Lequack]

He really likes that jacket. With Roglic and a fan

Update: Apparently not just a fan, but also a very promising young Italian cyclist that got hit by a car while training. Very tragic.
