What did you think of this year's Liège-Bastogne-Liège? 🚴💨
That MVDP season though…man
0:45 a bit tense… MvdP is terrorized by Pogacar for some reason.
Don't mind admitting I shed a tear seeing Niewiadoma win. Fantastic
10 race days 7 wins 2 second places
Tadej heading towards the most incredible season of all time!!
The guy has won 6 Monuments and 2 TDF in his 70 victories, and you still don’t even know how to pronounce his name. Look, it’s Po-Ga-C(h)ar. Why do you keep saying Pogatchar?
Is it some sort of British jealousy thing? You correctly pronounce the “j” as a “h” for Alejandro Valverde but for some bizarre reason can’t say “ga”!
Thanks "La Doyenne "….Dan , and crew . Great race/s .
Pogi🐐
Why do you call him VDP when his name is obviously MVP
You have to wonder why all these cyclists are suddenly having cardiac issues. Very sad to see, indeed. But nobody seems to be willing to "follow the science" and figure out why it's happening!!
This is simply the best cycling show right now..
Enjoyed the chat between Tadej and Matthieu! Nicest fellows to grace the peloton since Dan Lloyd retired.
What you have seen at 01:08 is often happening on my bike. I don't know why and nobody can explain it. The chain fells off the big sprocket to the outside. It's a Shimano DI2 12 speed. Everything double checked… it's a mystery🤷♂🤔.
Next Generation of Dopers right here!
I think it’s fair to say that the one-sided dominance is boring, but it’s hard to be outright impressed by the level of dominance on display. Times like this should encourage the rest of the field to innovate with their training and tactics, which is good for the sport.
So many heart issues I know of locally and in the pro pelo as of the last couple years. I wonder what from…. 🦠
I decided to make a bike ride about two kilometers after Pogacar stormed away on La Redoute. It's a boring monument year but at least my fitness is benefitting
ANOTHER cardiac problem by a young fit athlete, Anna Shackley!!! Can we just get the elephant out of the room and acknowledge these vaccination victims for what they are??? This list of high profile athletes from cycling to the NFL is not surprising, but sad and EVIL!!!
whoa loved the opening montage song!
Would be cool to see you guys comment on the MTB World cups and the Lifetime Grand Prix races, you go to Sea otter and you don't comment on any of the racing there.
pog is looking suspect
Boring Race
JUICED
Pog being 25 & Mathieu 29, of course.
I think even Pogi is caught with MVDP and others.. he can make it all the way to catch the peloton then attack in La Redoute. Maybe 20-30 sec winning margin to the peloton.
Thanks, Dan
Im really worrying about the Giro. Looks like the Pog will win it by 10 mins and take about 6 stages. its been a very dull classics season. Just hope the grand tours can save the season but i doubt it.
it's too bad nobody is going after these guys like the dopers who were their predecessors, imagine if one of these guys who is racing out of humanity and dominating everything was a brash cocky arrogant American from like Texas or something, I wonder if anyone would be trying to catch him cheating or something. /rolleyes The levels of hypocrisy in this sport never ever seem to disappoint.
Bardet has a really nice podium photo that will age quite nicely
