ciclista strada Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Will Tom Dumoulin go for the Grand Tour treble - first rider to place a close second in all three Grand Tours in one calender year? Has it been done before?
gtr1 Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 So 1st loser in each event ??? Think he'd give all 3 up for 1 win.

janslabbert Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Between bored and Post Tour Depression! Just thought so many think it is impossible to win all 3 Grand Tours in one calender year. If Tom finishes a close 2nd in the Vuelta or wins it, it might mean it is possible if he could have 3 incident-free tours or a lucky break. 3-4 minutes the difference between 3 tours.
