MVDP had 3 bloody/cut fingers due it the crash-- no question that affected his performance (as he said)-- i think he would have stayed with Pog & won the sprint otherwise....22-03-2026 20:03

Armstrong should still be listed as winning 7 Tours. All of his competitors were doping also. For example the 3 still-listed Tour winners prior to him were all obviously doping. Bjarne Riis (1996) admitted using EPO while winning but is still listed as the winner. Jan Ulrich (1997) later admitted to doping. Marco Pantani (1998) was later caught using EPO. Armstrong is no more a cheat than thousands of other riders. LeMond should publicly state this.11-02-2026 18:34

with this injury it's highly unlikely Wout can be competitive for the Spring classics ...11-02-2026 18:14

Pog has to win 7 TdF to match the true record ... sure Lance doped-- so did every one of his competitors...27-01-2026 04:40

i think Pog could still win if the bike was not more than 1 to 1 1/2 pounds heavier and he could use 28mm tires03-11-2025 17:28

Pog is human it turns out--- he had knee pain! Hope it's not a recurring issue. Have to disagree w Chris on one thing--even if Vin won the TdF, Pog would still be, by far, the greatest current rider w his run of one day race wins & podiums this year, along w the Dauphine, etc.16-10-2025 00:56

I don't agree with Pineau-- ~95% of riders were doping back then, so Riis had to dope to compete on same level; same with Armstrong. Admitting he doped does not make him arrogant, it does make him an honest man.17-08-2025 22:55
