That's not Tdf training. No Arenberg in the parcours

Reminder that no matter who rides Paris-Roubaix it changes nothing, Mads will win.

It was prologue + 5 stages when I made the profiles, too lazy to change

mads will win the sprint for 7th indeed

Mads is already the new Kristoff. SAD!

damn, i apologize, I'll go burn my old bike tyres as a sacrifice for my transgressions

no way in hell UAE will allow him to ride PR this year
maybe if he loses the Tour this year they will allow him to do it next year

The races with less hills are harder for skelly climber to win? No way

After he wins his 6th tour, securing him his record, he will bulk up and win all the other races for a year or two

He's a little more than that. He's not a vulgar Froome

of course hi did

Did leafbert notice the changes to the OP I made for him?

Of course not. The only one who comes close is Hinault, who is only missing MSR and RVV.

He did 10 minutes at 450watts on the peyresourde, he's more than just a w/kg merchant

>JUSTED

Was RVV hard enough in those days for Hinault to win?

Hinault could win anything. He only did RVV once, an 11th place in 1978. He also only did Paris-Roubaix once, and won.

It's amazing how fucking fast he just keeps going

Hey wait, checking this, it isn't even true. He rode P-R many times. Guess that was just a myth.

No. I don't want *nglos in the OP

Attached: 1645568571618.jpg (793x753, 88.29K)

he's honorary non-*ngl*

Huge and Fred Wright are the exceptions

Yeah, but I heard Jose de Cauwer say that De Ronde wasn't nearly as difficult in the old days as it is now. When you look at the winners in those years they seem to be more the printer type (albeit great cyclists) like Jan Raas and Walter Godefroot.

Hugh "Juan" Carthy is honorary Spaniard

As far as anglos go, Huge is one of the good ones

>Alpecin going with Merlier and Philipsen again
It's like they want to make the velodrama selection difficult

I always think SRAM rear derailleurs look so horrible

Last year Jasper won because Quick-Step tried to go for both Cav and Bennett, not a good idea imo

/grande/ Pippo is going to be the one and only secret pick though, so I am letting you know 2 weeks in advance!

Might have to stay off Alpecin altogether

Could be a good breakaway stage but Lotto will probably bring it back on the flat if they think anyone is going to gain time on Rog

Damn Vader was a pretty good pick for 4 points, especially since he will likely get assist points later

a little seethe is good for his drive

Allah seems like an optimistic pick here but would be nice to see him win
there could be drama if Memco refuses to work for him or tries to go for the win himself

Did you pick Remco for Itzulia?

No wait I am mixing up Berts. Trying to catch Irishbert here, secretly making an Itzulia team but his flag is Spanish now of course, not Austrian.

Attached: 1638884675757.jpg (1124x1043, 525.45K)

Allah can win in a sprint from a small group or a breakaway so not that optimistic and he lost 44 seconds today

Van Looy had 5 monuments and multiple top-10 in the three grand tours.
Closest anyone has ever come, besides Merckx.
Valverde had the potential (except P-R and TdF) for all of them.

If Pogi wins them all + WC, he's definitely the GOAT.

good, I'm glad he's mad, only makes him stronger

Honestly, Valverde is a coward for not going to De Ronde earlier in his career. He should have started diversifying the races he rides like 10 years ago. He could have had a much more impressive career, as crazy as that sounds.

>If Pogi wins them all + WC, he's definitely the GOAT.
Well, no, Merckx would still be the GOAT, unless Pogi also wins every monument 2+ times and wins every GT, with at least 11 total GT wins
then we can start the conversation about Pogi being the GOAT

Mercks never won Strade so Pogi will be the GOAT

>Merckx has only 1 Vuelta win
>Merckx has 0 Tirreno-Adriatico wins
lmao what a fraud

Merckx didn't win Paris-Camembert so not the GOAT anyway

Merckx didnae win 7 tdf in a row either the jobber

He also didn't win the prestigious Under the Footsteps of Romans baka

IT'S OFFICIALY ONE WEEK UNTIL PARIS-CAMEMBERT

>The Bordeaux–Paris professional cycle race was one of Europe's classic cycle races, and one of the longest in the professional calendar, covering approximately 560 km (350 mi) – more than twice most single-day races. It started in northern Bordeaux in southwest France at 2am and finished in the capital Paris 14 hours later. The professional event was held from 1891 until 1988. It was held as an amateur event in 2014.

The actual sixth monument

>Porto–Lisbon (Portuguese: Porto-Lisboa) was an annual road cycling race held in Portugal on 10 June in celebration of Portugal Day. Covering a distance of approximately 330-340 kilometres, the race was the longest on the professional calendar after the disappearance of Bordeaux–Paris in 1988. It started in Porto, Portugal's second-largest city, and finished in the Portuguese capital Lisbon around eight or nine hours later.

Meh. Surely no clean winner of this race

thank you for appreciation, although it's of course mostly her palmares that matters over her looks, and with strade bianche + ronde van vlaanderen she is finally getting the wins after all that bad luck she had in big races over the years

of course she is also the reigning track world champion in the points race, and a true flandrienne, above all a woman of the people
