Team leader Allan Peiper returns to UAE Emirates after more than a year of absence. The Australian has responded positively to the explicit question of two-time Tour de France winner Tadej Pogacar to assist him in the sporting staff. For health reasons, Peiper distanced himself at the end of 2021, but now he is physically able to focus on the sporting event. Several sources have confirmed this to WielerFlits.

Tadej Pogacar krijgt zijn favoriete ploegleider terug

Ploegleider Allan Peiper keert na ruim een jaar van afwezigheid terug bij UAE Emirates. De Australiër heeft positief gereageerd op de nadrukkelijke vraag van tweevoudig Tour de France-winnaar Tadej Pogacar om hem weer bij te staan in de sportieve staf. Om gezondheidsredenen nam Peiper eind 2021...

I know Pog would be murdered in CX. But I think for a 1 time deal it could be very appealing to sponsors.

Which sponsors? I really do not see Pog's sponsors agreeing with that view. They put their money down to see Pog winning road races or to be specific Grand Tours and maybe some classics, not providing laughs for a small bunch of forum followers, it's rather like asking Merc F1 to enter a driver in a banger race just to make a few cyber warriors laugh.

I assume he was talking about the sponsors of CX races.

Rectification: the best on bike interview was in 2010. During the penultimate stage Gibo Simoni, riding his last ever race, had just fought this heart out to win the Cima Coppi in Il Giro (he came up short) on Passo di Gavia, coincidentally enough also the place where he won his first ever stage. After getting dropped on the descent to Ponte di Legno and eventually getting usurped by the peloton, a RAI moto came up driving alongside him. It was Paolo Savoldelli, his eternal rival, working as an in-race analyst/commentator. :sleepy:

Looks like a packed schedule in 2023 as well. In regards to Tour. I feel they should learn something from the last year and bring one of the GC capable riders along Pogi. To put Jonas under additional pressure. From tactics point of view i feel that Pieper can play a valuable role. If they take Vine. Then Pogi should check the position of his bike on the team car. And to act accordingly.

Guys you are killing me. And i must say you are much better at entertaining. Compared to when you actually speak of cycling. I learn so much.

Thank you.

@Lequack Looks like Teddy is training on Vrsic pass with Prisojnik mountain in the background. It looks amazing, especially with this snow cover. I was there one spring and was delighted with the mixture of green and white colours.

That was in the fall. At the moment he can only go there on skis. ;)
