Teams & Riders Everybody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives

[Red Rick]

Only froome is a better climber than dumoulin.

There's Bernal.

 

[Noddy97]

There's Bernal.

LMAO. Are you serious??

 

[tobydawq]

Are you?

 

[Red Rick]

LMAO. Are you serious??

I'm either dead serious or dead inside

 

[Noddy97]

Nothing suggest that bernal is better than tom, even pinot was better than him until his abandon.
Next year, we will have the answer hopefully

I guess that's why he won so many MTF's

I forgot to say that valverde is better too...

 

[Blanco]

I forgot to say that valverde is better too...

Well, one of them won around 25 moutain finishes, other won two, so you do the counting...

 

[Carols]

Maybe we can get Back to Primoz Roglic!

I'm thinking Jumbo will win the TTT today, hopefully Tony gets Red.

This is Primoz's time to shine, I hope he has what it takes to make the Top Step!

Sucking wheels and sprinting to the finish... I would like to see how many wins he has by winning on solo...

This is not the who is the better climber tread, just saying. Especially as no one has mentioned Roglic!

Not solo, but...

That said, he has plenty of solo wins.

And sorry Carols for keeping this thread hijacked, but I couldn't let that comment pass.

 

[Valv.Piti]

How about when he won against that American rider in his first Tour de France at Courchevel?

Or when he toyed with Froome and Contador on Lo Port?

And why you don't show how many times contador and froome "toyed" with valverde?
Courchevel is the typical valverde's win. A uphill sprint against one of the best in this sport.
Let's move on, roglic is probably thinking that he could gain 45 seconds to movistar today

No rider has won all the MTF's in his life, so that's a pretty lousy question to pose.

Regarding today, there is no chance that the gaps will be that big. They won't gain 3 seconds per kilometer. Especially not to a good team like Movistar.

Roglic starts the next stage (2) at the Vuelta 40 seconds down to MAL and banged up from the team's crash. His Vuelta hopes took a big hit today.

Indeed Not only the time lost and his injury, but how many of his teammates are also injured All in all a Miserable start for the entire team.

 

[CyclistAbi]

Not exactly the start i have imagined or hoped for. On the positive side Roglič and TJV are still in the game. Lets hope the best is yet to come.

 

[JosephK]

Roglic not dead, yet (after stage 2).

 

[Carols]

Indeed, lots of life in those legs. He was tiring at the end after all the pulling but he's Right Back in the mix and showing he's in some good form . From 99th to 6th in 25km.

 

[Lequack]

Very good showing today. I was afraid he might actually lose time cause of the fall, but to go on the attacks and gain time is great.

 

[bajbar]

Just like Romandie. First real day of racing after altitude training. Still a bit rusty, but getting there. By Wednesday, the engine might get warmed up (in Romandie it definitely did for those last two stages) and then good things will happen haha. Plus, attacking suits him much better than the endless tactical games in the Giro

 

[Red Rick]

Really good day after the disaster of yesterday

 

[Rollthedice]

Respect.

 

[CyclistAbi]

Strong stage 2 performance by Roglič. He was confident when starting the attack and was taking much initiative in "TTT". The goal to catch up with López in overall classification was achieved successfully. In addition TJV looks much stronger, compared to the Giro. UAE made a nice comeback too. Quintana deserved the stage win today.
