I'm deducting a bit extra because of losing the rhythm and because I don't know for sure how much time passed between the puncture and the bike change, but yeah, 2nd was the most likely outcome.

Maybe it's just me but I don't count TT as big wins.

I might be wrong but I think this win makes Remco the first rider to win all of the following:
-WCTT
-Olympic TT
-Continental TT championship
-a Giro TT
-a Tour TT
-a Vuelta TT
Impressively this is still true even if we exclude the european championship which is a relatively new race of questionable importance. And all that at just 24 years of age. He really looks like the definitive TT rider of his generation.
Edit: dammit I was beaten

Didn't think he could do it as I thought he was running on fumes at the end of the tour, that's what being 24 is about I guess.

I remember getting flamed by the forum, for stating that Ganna was lucky in 2020 and 2021 that Evenepoel crashed in 2020, because that -unlike popular opinion at the time- Ganna was not a better TT'er. Almost as hilarious as me getting flamed for stating in 2022 that Evenepoel was a more talented TT'er than Küng by a great margin, and that him beating Küng by a few seconds meant it was actually a bad TT for Evenepoel. Good times.

Great win for Remco. Very happy for him..
I know the Olympic TT doesn’t rate quite as high as the Olympic RR. Regardless Remco’s collection of titles is impressive and rare:
Gold + GT win + WC + monument.

Basically all the cards that were going to determine the winner were stacked against him, yet he did. I truly believe an impeccable double gold is in the works.

- a GT
- a monument
- WC gold medal
- Olympic gold medal
