There are Santa Monica Mountains nearby (like 10 km from the Venice beach). So they can use something like THIS. At least it is an option.Los Angeles has good climbs? At least close to Venice beach.

Depends on the route but they could come in from past Valencia or Castaic Lake, or Palmdale area that is hilly and mountainous.Los Angeles has good climbs? At least close to Venice beach.
I think they will give us a hilly course with lot of climbing.Depends on the route but they could come in from past Valencia or Castaic Lake, or Palmdale area that is hilly and mountainous.
Hopefully, and that’s if the Olympics will still be in LA in 2028 or anyone travels here depending on everything else going on in the United States.I think they will give us a hilly course with lot of climbing.
What Vegas? Las Vegas? Would be a really cool 400 km+ race.Hopefully, and that’s if the Olympics will still be in LA in 2028 or anyone travels here depending on everything else going on in the United States.
Wouldn’t happen but they’d have a really mountainous race starting in Vegas and ending in Venice Beach.
Yes Las Vegas, and for the Summer it’d be hot af.What Vegas? Las Vegas? Would be a really cool 400 km+ race.
They'll never start in Vegas. Because what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.Yes Las Vegas, and for the Summer it’d be hot af.

They can make a really hard course from what I saw. Lot of climbing.Hopefully, and that’s if the Olympics will still be in LA in 2028 or anyone travels here depending on everything else going on in the United States.

It was definitely about weight. IIRC his bike had no paint, no handlebar tape, no water bottles...I'm sure I read it was only about 100g over the UCI weight limit. I know he has a sponsorship deal to wear the watch, but for that mountain TT weight was so, so important that he couldn't justify it. As to why he normally wears the watch if weight is important - I'm sure I've read somewhere that Richard Mille watches are quite light, so I guess he will only worry about it in a scenario like the mountain TT where every millimetre counted.May have been pointed out before but Pogacar didn't wear the wristwatch on the Peyragudes ITT in the Tour. Why not use it in the ITT if he wears it in all the mtn road stages?
I just hope he's learnt his lesson about wearing it at RoubaixIs Richard Mille worth 5 seconds?
Some think yes
You would kill people with a race like that in late summer/early fall. It's hot AF.Hopefully, and that’s if the Olympics will still be in LA in 2028 or anyone travels here depending on everything else going on in the United States.

That’s why I said it wouldn’t happen. It’d be too hot and far but it’d be mountainous af.You would kill people with a race like that in late summer/early fall. It's hot AF.
Reminds me of when the ToC ended up on the climb to the Aerial Tramway in Palm Springs. That's just plain torture.
His only weakness is his aero position. I still think he is top5 in TTs but mainly due to his power.Sure,but talent is king.Pog simply freak,who has crazy combo of fast twitch and slow twitch muscles.He is both explosive and durable as hell.Thats very unusual talent in sports.
His technical TT position is actually kind of mid. He cant hold it for long stretches compared to many other, and even the position itself isn't on the same level as several others, definitely room for improvement overall.His only weakness is his aero position.

I don't know if he can improve much more. He improved so many areas during 5 years and this is still his biggest weakness.His technical TT position is actually kind of mid. He cant hold it for long stretches compared to many other, and even the position itself isn't on the same level as several others—definitely room for improvement overall.
He is, and almost entirely due to his incredible power output.
So next year, Bora armada will be full of power in the Tour.
No, Bora will know nothing will change in the Tour against Pogacar.So Pogi ends up 4th, at best.
