I'm so excited about the upcoming Mallorca Challenge, it will be our first chance to see how Remco does with his new team!

He's only riding the TTT, not that exciting really. Hope he rides aggressively during Volta Comunitat Valenciana

I thought he was riding all of the Mallorca races (PCS is listing him in every race, at any rate), I'm confused.

Because no one knows who is riding which Mallorca races at the moment, even though it starts this Wednesday. RBH has 17 riders listed for Mallorca in total.

Ach soooooooo, in that case you're right, nothing to get too excited about. Though, it will be interesting to see what shape he's in after winter break at least.

He looks super lean here, I'm really excited to see how he goes this year!

seems like old footage from last year. could be wrong, but the shirt still has the golden band, that seems gone now.

Remco might have thought the same thing at the European Championships, for example, but he's so obsessed with winning that Belgium did all the work being Pogacar alone.

We'll surely see Remco as Lipowitz's domestique at the Tour. In Liège, they should launch Van Gils and have him try to win from the breakaway. I'm sure Remco would agree to that too as we saw at EC

I don't really know why you are talking about Evenepoel in the Pogacar topic. It looks like he lives rent free in your head all the time.

Its cause he is one of the 3 riders with an outside chance of beating him

Yeah, his WC/UEC performance really triggered something for them

In terms of stage racing, especially GTs, maybe a bit too much muscle mass in upper body?

I haven't seen an image of him for the past few weeks. But his normal spring/LBL body type isn't suited for GT racing, that's correct.

Still, that is a lot of atrophy needed to shred that off.

You usually do the same thing in this thread. Or will you now say that you only talk about Evenepoel in his thread?
