Gode minder. Virkelig en uforglemmelig dag!

Vingegaards præstation bagefter kender vi. https://t.co/jANiHeFvBd

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

@AlexVanopslagh Nemlig! Han er beviset på at store præstationer ikke behøver at lede til store armbevægelser. En stille, lille helt, der kaster lange skygger!

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Enig! Det er næsten svært at indramme, hvor store præstationer, Vingegaard har lavet siden han dukkede op for alvor i Vueltaen 2020. Sikke en mester. Sikke en sportsmand!

[Christian Moberg @Christianmoberg]

Ekstraordinær 🟡🔴🌸 Jonas Vingegaard har bevist at intet er umuligt for den som har tålmodighed og selvfølgelig talent ;) største Danske sportspræstation nogensinde .

[Prestigelisten.dk @prestigelisten]

Jonas Vingegaard and Michael Valgren both come from this small part of 🇩🇰 Denmark called Thy.

If Thy was a country, it would currently rank as the 10th greatest cycling nation in the world based on points earned by active riders. 👀

🇦🇺 9. Australia
🇩🇰 10. Thy 👏
🇩🇪 11. Germany

A first ever Grand Tour stage win for Michael Valgren, who must have thought many times over many years that his career could be over.

In 2022, he fractured his pelvis and ruptured his MCL & ACL in a crash at the Route d'Occitanie. The doctors that treated him didn't know if he'd ride a bike again.

For his comeback to have taken so long, to have ridden for the development team as he made his return, must make today, and his victories this season, taste SO sweet.

Couldn't be more pleased for him - such a gent as well.

Og jeg er lige i hælene med 7 😊

[Andreas Kastbjerg Ørting @a_kastbjerg]

Har allerede set klippet 8 gange. 🥹🇩🇰

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Så køligt eksekveret! Så stort overblik. Så høj klasse! Fornem Giro-sejr til @MichaelValgren!
Lægger sig til de 4 etaper, Jonas Vingegaard (foreløbigt) har.
Sikke en Giro!

[Mathias Fisker Mundbjerg @m_mundbjerg]

Vild statistik. De seneste 93 år er 🇳🇱 Danny van Poppel den eneste teenager i Tour de France - nu kommer der én mere.

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Ikke noget AI-pyntet pladder. Bare et rent budskab. “Jeg har noget at fortælle jer…”.
Forfriskende og fint.

Pra quem não viu a @parisroubaix, a criançada fez um resumo..

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Michael Valgren!! Hvilken vidunderlig sejr for en mand, der for små fire år siden smadrede det meste af kroppen og måtte kæmpe sig tilbage.

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Mens MVDP bankede konkurrenterne i Belgien kørte Paul Seixas fra Matteo Jorgenson i Frankrig og vandt efter 41 km solotogt. Franskmændene fejrer at de har en “fransk Pogacar!”.

[Renaud Breban @RenaudB31]

Overskud…💪💪

[Eemeli @LosBrolin]

Replay of the moment Seixas went solo, taking a sip as he dropped Jorgenson 😵 #FaunArdecheClassic

[Veloropa @veloropa]

Tobias Lund og Søjberg begge med for Decathlon, der jo mangler både Olav Kooij og Tiesj Benoot her i foråret og har ladet Dan Hoole og Cees Bol blive hjemme. Bliver det en spurt lørdag, kører de for Tobias.

Vacek: “Now I want to win a big victory!”

[Lukáš Ronald Lukács @lucxsronald]

Mathias Vacek: “I want to win one of the spring classics, I dedicate to it everything.”

The current Czech champion gave a great interview this morning with many interesting quotes so here they are:

“For this season, after consulting with my coach, I changed my strategy. In later years, I was in top form already in February. Still, this year I decided to start easier and focus on being in top form at the beginning of March, not holding it for too long or pushing my body to the limit and under pressure for several weeks. The main thing is to avoid fatigue.”

After the end of the season holidays, I was in Spain with my brother Karel from the end of November. I didn't travel anywhere. I focused only on training. I didn't miss a single prescribed training session, which would be impossible in the Czech Republic due to the climatic conditions. I'm concentrating on not making unnecessary mistakes. It will subsequently deprive you of a piece of the season. And I don't want to blame myself for anything. I spent Christmas and New Year's differently from five years ago. On Christmas Eve, I rode for five hours, the first day of the year six. I had dinner, and my brother and I had a toast. I want to move up to the very top. I commit everything to that.”

Of course, I discuss everything and consult with the coach. But if I have twenty-eight hours of training a week on my schedule, I'll go for it. If it's thirty, then thirty. I want to find my limits. I'm not going to ask myself what-ifs. I have my fate in my hands. My career. This year and next year are crucial. So I'm going to squeeze out what I have. If I do everything perfectly, I'll be great. There's nothing to wait for.”

“I don’t focus on the exact one race like Roubaix or whatever. I am focusing on all of the spring classics. I already won smaller races, now I want a big victory.”

“The Tour de France was and is a big goal. For everyone. I believed that the team would nominate me. Also because the cooperation with Mads Pedersen works. Together we can win more types of stages than our teammate Jonathan Milan. He is a pure sprinter, Mads Pedersen can win harder stages, and he can climb a hill if it is ahead of the sprint finish. The team knows this of course. We will definitely ride for the green jersey. I will be his right hand. And if Juan Ayuso starts, I will also ride as his domestique. The pressure will be big. But I am looking forward to it.”

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Han er 19 år og dybt skuffet over at tabe 13 sekunder til Ganna på en 20 km enkeltstart!
Sådan taler en vindertype.
Fremtiden tilhører Paul Seixas!

[Le Gruppetto @LeGruppetto]

Paul Seixas, 4e du chrono sur la #VoltaAoAlgarve : "Quand on passe si proche de prendre le maillot, c'est forcément décevant. Je n'ai pas pris assez de risques dans les descentes. C'était un parcours technique donc la déception est surtout là. Ça reste une très belle perf."

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Måske årtiers bedste og vigtigste tale… fra Canadas PM Carney.

[Torben G @wirehair01]

@carlbildt Here's a link to a video with the whole speech. Probably the most powerful I ever heard. He nails it

@ChristineStrann Tusind tak, Christine, for de pæne ord. Det betyder meget for mig at de mindeord landede godt. Jeg ville ikke skuffe Jørgen i denne sidste hilsen.

[Dennis Ritter @RitterTV2]

Min ven, læremester og inspiration har sagt og skrevet sine sidste ord.
Her er mine sidste ord til ham.
Tak for alt, Jørgen!

@JensRingberg Tusind tak, Jens. Det betyder så meget for mig, at den tekst landede godt og får pæne ord med på vejen. Den var vigtig for mig at få skrevet. Så tak! 🙏
