Tweeting cycling takes into the void

@lucxsronald Lukas:

"Pogi is great for the sport!! He is so exciting!!! Why do you guys complain so much???"

Also Lukas

"Why do the fans of the second best GT rider by a big margin even delusionally belive they have chance. Let's shame them"

...

@LucGrefte I think that after Tourmalet, his tactic yesterday was correct even tough it didnt play out. IMO hopeing that the group would take back 20 s on the flat was his best bet. That Pogi is so good that the 2nd to 6th best GT riders don't take even a second as a group is just absurd.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@InsideOut2912 What exactly do you want him to say? I just do not get this line of jokes year after year.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@LanebySebCykel Känner enbart fruktan...

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@InsideOut2912 I don't actually think anyone disagrees. I feel that this picture is valid - "but I was told Vingegaard was gonna rinse Pogacar"

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@MC_of_A I belong to the camp that think this was one of the more egregious cases of corruption I' ve ever seen - even accounting for "its Fifa watchu expect - due to the clear connection between infantino and Trump. However, rescinding it now would almost be worse...

@PuncheurCycling As someone that want's a close tour, it is enticing to just look at the end result today and cope. But truthfully, I've seen nothing today that affects my "pog in 6" opinion (i.e., it's over after stage 6).

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@robyn_emz Yes, her level is incredible and very very impressive. I do however have some questions about here decisions the last 30 mins. But we will see if she makes an attempt for the win before the finish.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@cyclingnico Min "hot take" är Ayuso kommer annonsera sig som en given top 5 och ett riktigt hot för top 3.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@LanebySebCykel Tror "tyvärr" Jonas vinner på ungefär samma sätt som Vueltan förra året. Inte övertygande men med sådan marginal att spänningen saknas.

Säger tyvärr eftersom scenariot varken ger oss spänning eller hopp för en jämn Tour.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@jonas_creteur @Tratnikstan Would you actually want more info live in TT? I think live updates,
negates the thing making TTs exciting, the uknown and the wait?

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@MartinL66727686 @FerrexCS Do I think companies like BP have significantly negatively impacted the world? Yes. Would I rather have them sponsor the winning team? Yes, with a huge margin.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@MartinL66727686 @FerrexCS Yes, but do think that it is (a) not the name sponsor and (b) a substantial difference between state actors and a capitalist company.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@LanebySebCykel Skulle nästan lika gärna kunna vara han, men känns för osäker. Svårare att ”köra sitt tempo” och släppa efter 2 km i bergen i den röda tröjan.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@LanebySebCykel Tror UAE kommer dominerar. Ser ingen riktig konkurrent utom Roglic och vågar inte betta på han pga skada. Tror inte Kuss håller och Landa/Mas/Carpaz Max podium.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@FerrexCS Yeah, gotta love that even though Pogi is the best cyclist ever, and feels unbeatable in every terrain (waiting for that LBL duel though). The others try in their respective terrain.

[nicko @Mon_Cykel]

@FerrexCS Yeah, maybe I’m caught up in the moment. But I do think Jonas getting dropped the first time shows something . He looked cooked.
