clearly on a slow downward progressionRoglič last 4 race days: 1st, 1st, 2nd, 2nd.
He'll win a GT in 2028, aged 30 (in other words; basically ancient)?Also, I'm calling it now: Clément Champoussin will be the man to end the French drought in GTs. Feel free to dig up this post after the 2028 Tour.
He only gets to sleep when he's riding stage races. Why do you think he rode the whole Tour with a fractured sacrum?the man has two year old twins. He has probably only started getting a nights sleep again recently...
As the father of 5 year old twins who weren’t out of the house the lockdown, I can totally relate.
Would be consistent with what happened to Agnello so not hugely surprisingRumours flying about the Sunday's stage on Tourmalet... Hope it's not true

Can you progress downward?clearly on a slow downward progression
I was hoping Tourmalet would go on as the region around there wasn't affected as badly with Covid as the area around Briançon... Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong...Would be consistent with what happened to Agnello so not hugely surprising
Hardly a surprise, and consistent with the Giro.Rumours flying about the Sunday's stage on Tourmalet... Hope it's not true

Sounds like a question for a skijumperCan you progress downward?![]()
Well you can go all the way back to the beginning of the season. It doesn't get much lower than that. You may have an occasional 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th place in there but that's the trend (apart from Tour sprint stages).Roglič last 4 race days: 1st, 1st, 2nd, 2nd.
The streak until Dauphine stage 3 was: 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 1st, 1st, 1st (GC), 9th (SHAME!), 1st, 2ndWell you can go all the way back to the beginning of the season. It doesn't get much lower than that.

Probably easier to keep people away from a stadium, than a mountain.If PSG can play soccer without spectators the Vuelta a Espana can ride up the Pyrenees without spectators as well.
Clownesque decision by the French government if taken. Especially 2 days in advance!
Those Vuelta stages in the French Pyrenees never have been attended by many people anyway. Now it's fall with freezing temperatures on top of Aubisque & Tourmalet! Basically they only need to close the boarder for the Basques. Practically even them probably wouldn't come in masses!Probably easier to keep people away from a stadium, than a mountain.
No, you interjected a dismissal of my post based on the fact you were triggered by the "financier" reference. Does such a stance score you points in some circles?There‘s no joke involved. You interjected a claim about financiers backing politicians to introduce contradictory rules. I asked you to explain. You haven’t done so. I remain unsure what the hell you are talking about.
Did you see Dan Martin win today and did you also notice Sean Kelly not over hyping him all the way up the last 10km or making it all about him while insultingly ignoring better placed riders.Can you imagine the orgasm that Kirby would have been having watching the Giro as Ineos dropped everyone on the Stelvio if he had been commentating?
We all know he peaks too early in GTs. Bet hes not even top 10 tomorrowclearly on a slow downward progression
You are behaving increasingly strangely. You made a weird statement about financiers backing politicians to introduce contradictory rules. I’ve just asked you who these financiers are and why they would want contradictory rules. You are now talking about people being “triggered”. You still haven’t given an answer to a straightforward question.No, you interjected a dismissal of my post based on the fact you were triggered by the "financier" reference.

Nah. In the book his girlfriend wrote about the Vuelta she said he is cursed on stages 20 of Grand Tours. In 2017 Tour he had a mechanical during the TT where he was one of the favourites to win, in 2018 he dropped off the podium, in 2019 Giro he also fell of the podium (though he got it back next day) and well, we all know what happened this year in the Tour on stage 20. Luckily, this Vuleta does not have a stage 20, so all is well haha.We all know he peaks too early in GTs. Bet hes not even top 10 tomorrow![]()
