"Thank God for Cyclocross!"

None of them nearly as dominant as Pogačar

who's gonna tell him
patrick-laubner.bsky.social
Yes, I don't watch anymore when he is a starter since the year's Tour. It's predictable and boring, the only hope is he crashes out or has a major mechanical, which is a stupid way to enjoy cycling.

Thank God for Cyclocross!

Decent, idk, ass
Mid, fraud, good, ass
tratnikstan.bsky.social
Tell me which rider in the last in the last 20 years has been as dominant as Pog and when have big one day races been as predictable?
tratnikstan.bsky.social
Fraud, decent, fraud
Underrated, mid, good, will turn back to a flop once they release the Epstein files

Just asking if we have any agenda against him, but i think we can confidently announce him as a friend of the movement
tratnikstan.bsky.social
#Roglanarod David Gaudu is a friend right?

Anyway their tt was okay this year

Last year a flop though

Didn't know you joined the Visma low budget cult
tratnikstan.bsky.social
Actually even the first point: Ferrand-Prevot destroyed them in the Tour this year and until last year SD Worx totally dominated the sport
tratnikstan.bsky.social
First teams that come to mind are Intermarche and Cofidis but they dont really have TT specialists either (Thomas exception)

For decent low budget team TTs were: Arkea this year, Movistar, Jayco always a good tt team, Bahrain not that bad either
tratnikstan.bsky.social
Which WT teams would you say have the worst TT equipment?

Because many lower budget teams have had decent TT results in the last few years
tratnikstan.bsky.social
Yes, should've made it more clear.

Although the other 3 points apply to women's races to an extent too

Annoying apects about (modern) cycling
- laughable dominance
- way too many crashes and UCI not giving a shit about safety
- dumb tactics
- top riders not racing against eachother more often

Biggest problem for him is positioning, cobbles arent a problem (even Jonas and Rogla would be fine on flemish cobbles)

I'm just not sure he has the 1-2 min w/kg to match pog/mvdp on those climbs, but he has the ability to come back as the Aerobullet

Just 2 years ago, especially in one day races, it wasn't known who the strongest was and/or the strongest didn't win at times (even more so 3+ years ago). It was much more unpredictable and that was the norm rather than exception

And that's completely changed in the last 2 years

Less than 2 weeks of me having to argue with people about basic tactics LETSGOOOO
