The riders that are noticably better on the huge stages than the typical mountain stages is pretty low IMO.
Only one that comes to mind (he has a rather popular thread).

Sorry, just one of many forum jokes that I seem to have missed.

I probably need to take more notice of one day races.
I wasn't comparing him to Pharmstrong. Who knows if he will become uber dominant. But he certainly seems to have been stronger over the past year than EB was the year before. Has noted, he's setting records, and he's winning races.Blasting? He was taking 10-30 seconds on Porte in MTF's last year (and breaking even with Roglic). Whereas say Armstrong was taking 30 plus seconds on Ullrich on almost every MTF.
Mate, what is with Australia bloke an Jim beam? I saw an Aussie bloke says the only gym he has been to in years is Jim Beam. That guy who stopped a robbery at the servo while busting his plugger as they were on their way back home from a stubbies and singlets party. ILike "I'm Eugene!" (Jim Beam ad)?
NopeRandom question. Are there any pictures of this guy - excluding TTs - where he does not have a bunch of hairs randomly sticking out of his helmet? It seems to be kind of his trademark.
Nope
his hair seems to stick out less with the MET helmetz. I hereby demand the Uci to ban those, cycling will not be the same without that hair sticking out

Pog vs Rog at The Basque Country should be an epic if Roglic has recovered from his Paris-Nice injuries.
With all things being equal, I will give a slight edge to TP.
I know that Slovenia has some dragons story like Jason and the Argonauts, St. Georges dragons etc. So maybe these two have dragons blood in their body which gives them super human strength.
