@faustocoppi60 I’m sure this years Vuelta will be nothing like last years with the flag waving protestors……

@ulif Yeah, if they get back on the road they might be able to catch the peloton before the finish and win the stage!!

To clarify: this is during the race. They are pro athletes paid to race: if the race doesn’t “count”, they stop. Amateurs wouldn’t stop. So it does make sense what they do. I think the rules need to be revisited if the goal is “sports”.

@pross1959 @dabearsblog Numbers don’t lie. Missing 14 games last year is more meaningful in 2026 than “only” missing 9 games his first 3 years.

Not surprised by tone Johnson and Poles are striking re: Kyler Gordon. This clearly caught organization by surprise and they’re not happy. I do think they regret letting CJG leave for a cheap one-year deal to Buffalo. Filled that role - especially pressure from slot - admirably.

In about a weeks time the timeline will be flooded with posts about how “the tour de france femmes is SO much more entertaining than the Men’s race” I get it, it’s fun. You’re allowed to enjoy both. #TDF2026

@pross1959 @dabearsblog I would argue that a guy who has missed 23 regular season games in the past 4 years most definitely has injury “history”.

@NickyCycles @dabearsblog You're completely inaccurate with your post. The soft tissue problems are a 12 month problem. In his first 3 seasons, he missed a total of only 9 games and half of those were due to a broken hand - not exactly a "history."

Noah Hobbs (EF Education-EasyPost) wins the opening stage of Tour de l'Ain in Bourg-en-Bresse! 👏🇬🇧 Alberto Dainese did a great leadout for him and finished 2nd ahead of Barrillot and (Matteo) Milan. #TourdelAin

Lemond: "Armstrong says Pogacar 'knows very well what the record for Tour wins is.'? What he says is irrelevant. He never had Tadej's talent. Lance only "found" his talent at the age of 28…" tuttobiciweb.it/article/178524…

I genuinely believe that we all still underestimate Pogačar as an athlete. His rides on Plateau de Beille and Alpe d'Huez are probably the greatest athletic performances a human has ever produced 🤷🏻‍♂️

@NickyCycles The point is more about animating the race and versatility as a rider…sprinting, dragging himself over hard climbs to contest intermediate sprints, getting in breaks, dropping back and working for the team etc

I’m well over two decades into every day Tour de France watching. Such a great three weeks every year. Sad to see it end today but as I said earlier it was a spectacular final stage. Closing out 2026 w/ some thoughts: Tadej Pogačar: not much left to say that hasn’t been said. The debate isn’t is he the greatest of our generation, it’s where he ends up in greatest male cyclist of all time discussion. Maybe his most impressive performance this year to me wasn’t his domination over the field but that he seemed genuinely excited to take on being a domestique to a lift up and/or protect a teammate’s GC position on three different occasions, so speaking of Isaac Del Toro: I will be stunned if he doesn’t put a Grand Tour win on his CV by end of 2028 (prob quite sooner). The Del Toro-Seixas rivalry is going to be really fun in a few years, which leads me to… Paul Seixas: don’t know how he could have realistically done any better as a 19 year old in his first Grand Tour. Seems to be handling the hype and pressure well. And rooting for him in the future because I want to see the scenes of a French winner in the TdF soon. Remco Evenepoel: thought the whole thing was about to unravel for him in the first week when he blasted teammates and tactics. But he got it together mentally and physically and was clearly the best of the rest. Really showed a lot in the last two weeks. Quick hits - Mads Pedersen, if the Tour couldn’t have Wout Van Aert he was the next best thing. Richard Carapaz, the best third week of the TdF, turned EF team performance from blah into a top 5 of this tour. Tim Merlier, when in form the best sprinter in the world right now. Visma - one good day and then yikes…which is a bummer, team full of guys I really like. #TDF2026
