  1. This reminds me of 20 whenever year when there was only 2 or 3 of you left by Optredouws when we started behind you
  2. then the next day have string around your ears connected to a pick n pay packet between your legs.
  3. I would update this for the following on your cv/profile: Year 2022? there no results in 2023 and 2024? W2W x 2 results for the same race/event You stated your excel in stage races but have no specific result other than "finish" and the ones that have a result posted is only day 1. Nothing for the rest.
  4. Sometimes yes. Sometimes no.
  5. Yes I dont think they do, they seem to read to read not read to understand like you have here. I would suggest looking at changing meds from crazy pills to Ritalin cause all I said as a general is not suggesting listening to BFJ. Unreal.
  6. I wouldnt go on much of anything Bike fitter James suggests in general. Maybe the battery he uses in his drill but thats about it
  7. Hoods do change and have. Example the new SRAM is 5mm longer than previous and shimano from Di2 11 to 12 is also longer at 4m. the difference of 8000 to di2 you asked is 8mm in length
  8. Just an Example of performance factors here - TDU which is an early season race, not super deep in depth but very competitive with short stages. For a short effort of 10min that you need to be competitive at to be in the mix for GC you need to be doing 10min at and over 7w/kg +. If not, you filling the field. However, also remember this is also after the stage and +- 3000kj or work which in WT level is not alot at all when you having to do this after 4000kj + in a GT and 20min at 6.5-6.8W/kg after this energy consumption multiple days at a WT level race or stage race. There is a big big difference here. Take all the durability, power into account, then you need to be able to surf and place in the peloton - this energy consuming wise is huge if you cant surf a peloton.
  9. The gap of the understanding of what the level of the Tour alone is, is that big for starters. Never mind any rider going Top 50. top 20 is another whole conversation
  10. Their roster is not full, he would do selected road races and selected XCO if this is his path
  11. Only pays more IF a team sees the value amount in the rider. In a case like this typically the MTB team pays the salary, not the road team. In some cases XCO can / does pay more. Can have the XCO rider not be better due to many variables. Cink is an example. Not everyone in XCO is Pidock and he doesnt transfer both ways
