Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Clean like a baby's butt that's been in a diaper for 24 hours?

Nice way to put it.

Amstel Gold tomorrow and how long before Pogacar gets bored and sprints for victory? 50 km out?

Yeah, 50 m out makes sense.

So, will the boy's hunger to win everything result in more extraterrestrial activity tomorrow ...

He does seem to be a man on a mission. Maybe he's on some Faustian bargain and the clock is ticking.

he is started well for the trio.

Dominating AGR. Doesn't seemed to be tired at all, so I guess WP and LBL are still ok with his everlasting form.

 

[glassmoon]

well... there he goes again

 

[MartinGT]

Well done to the UCI for allowing this charade to go on. It's all down to nutrition, training blah blah. We have all heard it before, time and time again.

 

[acm]

It's not even funny anymore...

 

[hfer07]

Couldn't watch AGR at all- but given the brief highlights on how Pogacar won it, I'm just here for the comments...

 

[Ripper]

Bwa ha ha ha ha!

This is hilarious stuff (hilarious that anyone takes it seriously)

something will only happen when he wins his 6th tour. as long as he stops at 5 he should be safe.

I just hope there‘s no motor doping involved, that would do it for me.

 

[Aimar16]

The guy beat a random Irish rider whose name was mostly unrecognised until wednesday. What a freakshow

Then you should stop watching modern cycling

Guys, Teddy is clean as a whistle. Cold weather is his doping.

As clean as a baby's butt that's been in a diaper for 2 days.

Apparently the laws of "periodization" don't apply to our boy Pogi! Or gravity for that matter.

From Velonews:
"Pogačar looked like he was playing pro cycling PlayStation in the Dutch Limburg while “big three” rivals Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel sat out the relentlessly hilly race."

Maybe Pogi is still at a modest 70%, as Gianetti said in March, and will have 100% only in July

Still remember the old days where Contador was definitely doping because no one could be good both on Spring and Tour. Also because he could take a hilly TT here and there.

Then Sky came along and it was ok to dominate Spring and summer stage races if you had the right pillows.

Now Pogacar, does all that and casually mocks around cobbled specialists in Flanders and wins notoriously difficult to win Classics like a sunday Ride. Extra points for the joke of riding for a team sponsored by UAE.

Watching cycling for 15 years I never felt so unmotivated and pessimistic about the state of the sport. Just hoping to get an Alpe d Huez TT soon just to get a measure of how low the sport has got.

I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles
