Tour de San Luis (2.1) Januari 21-27 (11 WT / 27 teams total)

[Pentacycle]

And while the other TJ has just won a world tour stage race. This TJ still hasn't won any stage-race at the professionals, whilst he is by all standards a far superior stage-racer.

Cycling is funny sometimes

Tejay isn't a winner at all, and he can't help it. Still he's a much better climber and GT-rider than your overhyped Tom-Jelte, as he wouldnt even be top 20 in San Luis. And I wouldn't underestimate TJVG on the hills as well compared to the Dutchman.

Did you even try to read my post? Didn't I say TJ(vg) is a far superior stage-racer?

besides, Slagter has hardly been hyped, in fact, I would say he's not been hyped by anyone here at all. Nobody saw him do something in TDU, not me, not theyoungest, nobody. Maybe you don't know what the word hyping means.

Lol, I was talking to theyoungest a couple of weeks ago on CN and he said Slagter was the best chance of success for Blanco at the TDU.

That's not overhyping

It's just saying that he's the most capable rider to achieve success at TdU for Blanco. And looking at the squad before, you'd definitely agree. It ws him or Kelderman as their leaders here... Even the Blanco directors said it themselves.

Read D_T's final sentence.

I'm not surprised he did something here.

 

[Gloin22]

Read D_T's final sentence.

Okay, admitted

Still, I am sure Dekker when looked at the Blanco squad expected Slagter to be Blanco's leader anyway I think.

And anyway, to main subject no way Slagter was overhyped ever here.

1 Gavazzi
2 Sagan

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

the return of mattia gavazzi!!!

 

[El Pistolero]

Hope he's finally cured of his addiction. Nice win, against Sagan no less.

 

[taiwan]

Gavazzi outfinished Sagan and Ventoso

Even at this time of year that is something.

 

[jens_attacks]

wow can't believe it. many riders said mattia had very good form before san luis but he said after first stage that he still lacks the focus in the last km.
top talent,i'm so glad for him

When I will listen to "low key Kelly" later.. I will remember RAAAAAAAAAAAADio Popular with nostalgia. Tour de San Luis is a great race for fans who battle the cold and darkness of winter riding.. a little bit of sunshine.. animated by great riders we don't see often fighting for the honor of dueling with the likes of Contador and Tejay who also did their best to make it a real battle
