Tom Dumoulin on Tadej Pogacar's attack: “He does this purely to annoy Vingegaard”

“Is it arrogant? It does have a little bit to do with arrogance. That duel between Vingegaard and Pogacar has been going on for three years now and Pogacar can’t stand the fact that he’s been beaten for two years in a row. Now he’s finally the boss again and he finally has his legs to hurt Vingegaard again. He now thinks: now you’ll get it back.”

"If this is my bad day then I'm happy"

Jonas Vingegaard was thankful to his teammates and felt he's still improving after stage 17
>>
>>142838052
>"I'm glad I could still be useful to him," said Benoot. "That was also our first intention: to be there to protect Jonas if something like that happened in the final."

New best ever 60s power despite only doing 50s reps today. 600w, repeatablity is attrocious. Subsequent efforts were around 550w which is just pathetic, 650w for first 50s effort.
I think I need to get back into squatting, it's okay at this point in training but if I can get that up to 700w for the minute within the next few months it'll be better. I find anaerobic efforts can be hard to regain but FTP based efforts are very easy to regain after no training.
Might do 25s for a few weeks instead to work on anaerobic system, 50's feels a bit too much in terms of having to repeat 6-10 in a session at the moment. I guess that's just fitness.
>>
>>142838187
they’re easy to rent
>>
>>142838235
Mt Evans is pretty easy, I don't think it goes above 4% the whole way up. Pikes Peak is brutal. The elevation above 4000m will make you genuinely sick if you are not used to it, but if you stay for a few weeks living in the front range at like 1600m you get used to it quick. I did them a couple years ago, I kind of want to go back now, truly stunning climbs. Rocky Mountain park is also great, as is Independence Pass near Aspen. The latter in October with all of the trees showing their colors and the first fresh snows of the season is one of my most memorable rides ever

There are some things in his messages that are true, but the vast majority are wrong. I don't know who this person is or what his intentions are, but I think he just wants to be important on social networks and forums.

9" MTB Chad here, why is the TdF or road races popular?
>"banter" is not fun
>consist of watching guys just pedal
>dope yourself + low oxygen training = win
>cyclist throw sissy fits for
Is it just because it has better access for coverage by the qui media? Even doin it and the cyclist looks mediocre while doing it. No muuh scenics excuse as riders are just zoned out following the peloton like a flock of birds without any foresight. Are commentators just so good at talking shit about whatever? Is it just popular because most people live in flat places and the highest they've ever been is 1000ft above sea level so long distance cycling is a thing?

Imo fishboy deserves huge probs for fighting like he does from a clear disadvantage and despite pogi being a based retard and attacking on every little hill he's still only 3 minutes back... The last stages should be good with remaking lurking and maybe being able to play them off against each other.

Anyone else noticing how atrocious remkings positioning in the important phases of climbs is?
He seems to always be stuck in when the attack happens
Today he would have easily stayed with pogi if he didn't have to go around so many guys. Happened a few more times in other stages...
If he just manages to improve on that it will be a huuuuge step forwards

Give me a year of doping + low oxygen training and I could. Mountain runners could easily mog any roadie, but they are bored by it.

But I genuinely don't get it and I'm looking for enlightment? It's like Nascar compared to WCR but Nascar atleast has the big thunderous engines roaring and drinking. Road racing, TdF etc, the only part I've seen this year is the dude jump over the stick boys during a stage. His mere presence objectively mogged them.
Even the "banter" in this thread is general. I'm sorry but I just don't see it and possibly doesn't even exist.

>>
>>142839855
where the mtb thread buddy? I wanted to see this renowned elite banter
>>
>>142839586
Maybe he just prefers to stay a bit further back, eat less wind?

>>142838937
I think it's cool that pogacar acknowledges the guy and says some of the stuff is true. I think that speaks well to the character of pogacar and it seems a pretty genuine response

>>142839976
No.
Remco has never gained significant time on Vingegard on a long hard climb. So unless fishman crashes he will stay second quite comfortably.
>>
>>142839976
Today was a puncheur effort. Next stages are different
>>
>>142839947
the divisions in MTB are so much more extreme than road cycling its weird

XC is literally roadies
Enduro and Downhill are in a different universe...like zero cross pollination and completely different lifestyling
>>
>>142839976
unless Jonas giga cracks from his own form no

So. I know this place loves to tiptoe around this particular issue and I understand why, but let's be real for a second here. What are the odds that at the very least the top three aren't on anything that will get them Lance Armstrong'd in a few years?

Everyone knew Lance was doping. Everyone knew what he was taking. It was not rumours or squeakers it was well known. You hear nothing about the guys today other than schizo ramblings.

I think odds are good they are clean, at the very least they are using things that aren't on the banned list (yet?)

There's been an arms race towards nutrition and recovery for sure, and to me it seems more based in facts than sky's marginal gains program
