Especially when the whole thing plays out in such a farcical manner. Nothing happens all day, the Pogster floats away, they self-destruct behind.
What annoys me is that noday even dares to question this. Lance Armstrong, Chris Froome ect got absolutely hammered every press conference. Heck, just look at Mauro Gianetti's history, yet nothing.
Unfortunately in this day and age, you aren't allowed to question the mainstream narrative like the past, you just get called a 'hater' or a 'conspiracy therist'.

What do people expect when the supposed "best climber in the world" can keep up with Van der Poel on the flats and cobbles of Roubaix?

It reminds me of when Pantani or Heras won time trials. We all know what that meant.

Boy doesn't need to peak. These are all just Sunday group rides to him.

Pretty much! You'll get canceled!

I mean, of all people to be managing a team, no one spends much time bringing up the past of those two.

The race for second place is interesting!

Definitely seems like Gianetti and Tadej's team supercharged the program after Tadej actually looked tired during Roubaix and Amstel.

Plus they know with the Tour route being so brutal this year that they'll have to push Tadej's recovery ability to a new level to guarantee more domination so this is probably a test for that.

That's it. Simply speaking, the main reason for that is the much increased degree of monopolization everywhere especially in the last few years starting from covid.

The thing is I know they are all doping, but this is royaly taking the piss. I can't believe it but I'm starting to question that motor doping could be happening..
It's getting to the point where I'm starting to think that doping should be allowed. Everyone is responsible for their own health and what they take.

More like "supercharged his bike" to make sure there is sufficient cushion to allow for the unforeseen and avoid any chance of embarrassment.
