I would argue Minaar’s achievements outshine Nino’s. Nino is great, but he still hasn’t matched Absalon’s win record. Greg on the other hand still holds the most wins, most podiums, and over a much longer period of time beating the best of the best in the last 4 or 5 generations of riders. And based on last year’s results he is not slowing down any time soon. Nino may still equal and overtake Absalon’s record this year, but I don’t think he will ever be as dominant as Greg. Hard to compare apples with pears though... justinafrika and DieselnDust 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to compare apples with pears though... As has been mentioned.. It was the last decade..2010 to 2020. No one dominated in that period more than nino. Closest was Rachel.. But even there were had Manon, pompon, Tracey etc stealing her thunder temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
