Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

[Red Rick]

Neither Froome nor Contador would be winning any TdFs in the current era.

Neither of them would do the watts they did then in the current era.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Jakob Fuglsang would be doing his best watts ever in every single era.

I see no reason to believe either would have been a big threat to the best cyclist we've ever seen and the only one who's been able to beat him. The level in their time was rather crappy compared to today.

'Impetuous, overconfident, and tactically ill-advised' - Remco Evenepoel regretting early aggression on UAE Tour climb, lost time

'Muscle damage' from intense time trial using 68-tooth chainring and broken AC led to bad day

www.cyclingnews.com

Remco admitted he rode the climb like an utter idiot. He got excited when he saw Del Toro dropped and went way too hard way too early

Basically, he did the climb as it was a 1km climb

Maybe if they put Remco in a room with AC he could teach Remco how to climb.

If they put Remco in a room with air conditioning, then Remco could teach Remco to climb.
Winning the UAE tour is like kissing your Imam. Ok you got the kiss, but it's stil your Imam.

Its getting to the point its time to face the reality boys in terms of climbing.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. Im sorry.
