With six wins already this season, do you think Ineos Grenadiers can dominate Grand Tours again?
Couldn't you iron your new t-shirt
pls dont use MAGA… think better before writing script
Do us all a favour, dont even joke about MAGA. I'm sure I'm not the only one for whom cycling is my refuge from that very frightening craziness.
"The Comeback We've Been Waiting For"- why do GCN and many British cycling commentators assume every anglophone fan supports INEOS?
ineos figuring out cycing has been a very pleasant suprise
Magnus Sheffield's Interview quite showcases how tough Pro cycling really is. Kudos to him, very well deserved Win.
Why did both Ineos winners have trouble riding no hands over the line?
The Zwift Games Queen Stage is a fun race. Highly recommend if you like climbing.
Haha, there may be Americans winning but I assure you no one is aware of it over here…
Ineos Grenadiers are not back at what they used to be but this is good start.Great reacing,stage win and good GC results…chapou to them.I'm excited to see what they can do in the rest of the season.
I ❤ the GCN racing show, but someone please de-wrinkle Dan's shirts! PS: Way to go, Derek Gee!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you
Dan’s use of MAGA might be the only time I didn’t want to vomit when hearing it. For cycling, I hope it bodes well for American cycling.
Dan, please refrain from saying the phrase “MAGA.” It is truly triggering for people like me watching my nation sliding into autocracy. I’m sure you thought it was cute, but what is going on is not at all funny or to be taken lightly. Thanks.
Road season started awesome this year!
I can't wait to see Ganna and Pedersen 1-2 in GC at a grand tour at the end of the third week. 😉
i miss the the old GCN streaming service. for me in the US i have to get both max and peacock to see the whole race calendar or i have to pay flobikes what seems pricey to me
Ok I need you guys to get to the bottom of something. These days it is really clear that guys struggle posting up when they cross the line winning. This is true even with the peloton's penchant for long stems. I have two theories on why this is happening – with bike design evolution causing shorter stems and making bikes less stable when riding no-hands
1 – The hoods are now so dang long that guys are now using significantly shorter stems than before.
2 – Framemakers are making the reach too long on frames thus forcing some riders to use stems shorter than ideal
If you're watching races you already know what I mean about guys strugling to post up but if you somehow didn't notice – look at @1:06 in this video – even though he does sit up ok in the end you can see he had some uncomfortable wobble. Also look at Tadej winning strade bianchi. Or watch any random races this year and youll see it 50% of the time guys post up.

Sheffield did a Mohoric. Showed us all of his vulnerability in a post race interview.
well done Magnus.. I'm on board
Ayuso needs another team
I've been a fan of INEOS since Team SKY was developed. I've watched about 20 races this season and INEOS has been in the front controlling the race in almost every race. The way they split the peloton in the crosswinds the other day was ICONIC INEOS and so great to see. Its no secret they are making a comeback. They need a leader tho and I'm not sure Bernal can fill that void for them. We'll have to see bit they are looking really strong and they are animating the races they are in. Love to see it
🤘🏻🇬🇧
No GC for Grand Tours. But they can for sure collect a lot of stage wins in any GT’s.
A Chinese rider broke a world record? 🤔
Ineos are back…. first it was marginal gains, now marginal results/wins… leading to great wins. Will we see Kwiatkowski win a stage or two in TDF?
Riders that keep crashing – Vingegaard, Roglic, Remco, Dunbar. G Thomas.
New t-shirt?
MVDP ready for classic in week🤎🔥🔥

Good on you Ineos
85 kg uphill? He’s nearly 10 kg heavier than Indurain. What’s he putting out? 1000W?
Have to pull you up on the Trofeo Binda report Dan. No mention of Pfeiffer Georgi? She finished 5th. I know she was later demoted, but still worth a mention, surely?
Magnus with the feelings
Do they still drug test and check bikes?
America. The oldest and greatest country in history.
Not a good idea to refer to “Making America Great Again”, it is not a good association with American cyclists, because I would venture to guess that 98% of American cyclist are firmly opposed to MAGA and do not like being grouped together.
