Ooh hangbags at dawn[emoji6]

 

I am sure the little rivalry (if there is even any) will bring the best out of them

 

 

I remember him.. he descended like a demon to claim that world title.

8539.05 km in 57 race days.

13813.7 km in 88 race days.

It's clear that they can't send both riders to all three Grand Tours in one year and expect them to perform well in all three. They now have 2 very talented youngsters, and will be interesting to see them help each other to perform better.

So Meintjes averages 157 points/race day, whilst Matej averages 149. So Louis is the better rider

Km/race day.

 

Louis rode in 2 Grand tours, whereas Matej had a DNF on day 6 of the Vuelta - he didn't race the other 2 Tours. His PCS ranking for One-Day classics is also higher that Louis' ranking, but that could be due to him riding for a ProTour team.

Haha, that's called seeing what you want to see

 

Ah well, I can't wait to see what the 2 young guns will do on the team then! Interesting season ahead of us.
