Hadn’t come across that before, Meglet!

This channel popped up on my YouTube feed the other day, and the first video I saw was of Romain Bardet descending with this chap filming it. This is from the same channel and popped up with Pidcock. Crikey! He nearly lost it at around 1min, sounds like he shouted back ‘oil’, or similar. Comments suggest it’s a one-way public road, but someone goes down in the car first to check it’s clear.

Remco will almost certainly end up at Ineos in that deal I think. It feels like it would be a Jumbo takeover from a sporting perspective.


Rumours of Bernal to Lidl-Trek would fit that scenario.

SPR, a few said, when this was brought up as an idea a few months ago, that there would be no point in Roglic leaving Jumbo. If he can join a team where they throw everything behind him, he’s still got a chance at TdF. Will anyone from Jumbo go with him? Ineos have lost a couple of riders so they’ll need to bring some in to support him.

It might not be Ineos, anyone needing a leader has been linked with him (Lidl Trek, Israel PT). He'll need a super strong team to compete with Jumbo and UAE. Will be fun if he's at that level to have a three way fight though.

That would be extremely surprising. There's not much reason for Kuss to leave. He wouldn't have won the Vuelta at any other team as they simple wouldn't have put him in that position and a strong team means he can ride with less pressure. The relationship with Roglic would have to be extremely close to prise him away.

Wouldn't be surprised if this was linked to the merger. The Lefevere article suggests Evenepoel would be part of the team and that makes too many leaders. I'm not sure Evenepoel at the Tour makes sense in a merged team though.

The King wins the Giro dell'Emilia. Easily in the end.
