- Increíble etapa. Pogacar récord en la subida más mítica, y Del Toro top-10 tiempo—que futuro tiene el chaval. Qué locura de vatios, madre mía.sprocketspiny25-07-2026
- Not sure about the “more than a minute faster than Pantani” narrative without altitude, wind, and pacing caveats. Conditions matter, road surface too. The piece could have dug deeper there tbh.cadencekingm25-07-2026
- Love the context with Ayuso’s52 matching Pidcock’s winning time inShows how fast the whole peloton is moving now. Also, Remco at56 on a pure mountain like Alpe is legit—he’s adapting.jeremya25-07-2026
- Quick question: why does Strava show26 if the official time is27? Is the Strava segment missing the first ramps through Huez village or the final bends? Bit confused how these segments are defined.velodromevirtuoso125-07-2026
- Goosebumps stuff.27 on Alpe d’Huez is bonkers, and doing it after a full GC battle all week makes it even more unreal. Pogi’s 7 w/kg for ~35’ matches the Plateau de Beille monster—alien territory.jennifer1925-07-2026
- - Wow, he broke the climb record—does that mean he was faster than Pantani’s old time? And why does the white jersey matter if he’s already in yellow?pedalpowe2924-07-2026
- - Great read but not sure about “dominant” when Carapaz and Martinez were still in the fight late. Felt more calculated than domineering. Still, record is a record.gearguru3324-07-2026
- - How does the Col de Sarenne change the descent risk vs the classic route? Is it narrower/rougher, or mostly myth at this point?velodromevirtuoso124-07-2026
- - Carapaz and Lenny were brave to hang, but once Adam did that middle-section pull the elastic snapped. Queen stage via Sarenne tomorrow is going to be brutal—5,450m D+ after today’s effort, legs will be cooked.jeremya24-07-2026
- - That was vintage Pogi on Alpe d’Huez. Breaking the climb record on a day that fast from the flag is insane. Yates’ turnaround since the TT is massive for UAE’s depth, too.julien24-07-2026
