Don't get all the "X-perts" criticism about Wout & what he should and shouldn't do when he is not winning. Winning is what happens when everything goes right. Life happens: injuries, mental fatigue, age, mistakes , family , motivation and your body. This is not a Playstation game

100% Willie. The only people doubting Wout are those that have no experience in elite sports. It’s not just about stats & fitness metrics. It’s about the intrinsic desire to better oneself & never accept mediocrity. You can’t measure that. And as you said “life happens.”

The UCI has banned everything they possibly could, BUT NOT THESE HELMETS (I Don't understand cycling) 😂 #cycling #GirodItalia

As life happens and an athlete begins their decline from their peak, the relationship sours (depending on contract amount, but it's ALWAYS deemed too much from the teams POV). However, chapeau to any rider that builds a foundation of trust, for a team sign them that long 🤝👏

Some thoughts regarding the neutralization of stage 6 #GiroDItalia2025 !?

Beautiful view looking at Pic de Casamanya from our kitchen. Andorra 🇦🇩

👏👏👏

Logistics / Racing as a professional cyclist abroad. Enjoy youtu.be/Ddd6tchtowM?si…

OMG, are we going to see Wout wait at the top and see the old school tactic? Like they say, when two dogs fight over a bone... (remember Seeing Tom Dumoulin losing Vuelta similarly at the end) #GirodItalia

Small fact check (not opinion): 1) Del Toro was already empty (inside info), so would not have been able to follow Simon. 2) EF went so hard on Finestre it backfired (Richard was hoping Del Toro would drop immediately, he didn't) 3) Nothing they could do against WVA #GirodItalia

Haha the comment section is gold. All the Playstation warriors telling EF and UAE how they should have riden 😂 cycling has always been easy from the couch, especially for the keyboard warriors. Riders aren't Robots and if it was that easy why aren't you working for a Pro Team!

I've said it repeatedly. It's an injustice to try and compare WVA & VDP. Just enjoy the show they put on and take it for what it is.

Where's all the "X-Perts" this morning who told us Visma & WVA are done for & having a terrible season. Talk about kicking a dog when it's down. No wonder they say the tallest trees catch the most wind. #cycling

Unpopular Opinion. Def. of being biased: RC fans complaining that IDT didn't honor the jersey (when they are actually just angry because they wanted IDT to work in an already lost situation ) to help RC get back. IDT knew it was over and saved 2nd. Enough logic in that, he 21y.

Listening to the post Giro "should have this,should have that". Maybe you should have gotten a degree, career, or own team with riders capable of winning and controlling each stage scenario. But unfortunately, we don't live in a "could have, should have"world.

Arguments fans use against my analysis of stage 20 Giro:"I saw it on TV"...I'll leave it there. Simon and WVA were the teachers giving the naughty kids a hiding. Patience, experience &class prevailed. RC played with fire using his team to blow up the race on the foot of Finestre

The moment haters realize Simon would have still won the Giro without Wout and that their argument, "UAE is stupid because they allowed WVA in the breakaway" , has no foundation, sense or merit".... 🥱 #GirodItalia

The moment RC and IDT lost Giro. There are only two people in the world that can attack at the foot of an hour accent and drop everyone. That's Alien Jonas and Pogi the goat. #GirodItalia

There are many ways to win in life that is not defined by a 1st place. For someone who's never been on the podium of a GT at only 21, I'm happy IDT did not have the"monkey puts his hand in a pumpkin"approach.The all or nothing approach is for the Hollywood movies. CHAPEAU IDT&UAE
