CyclingSaturday, 10 May 2025 at 10:30
Hahaha, this is the footage you want to see after stage 1 of the Giro dāItalia! Spirits are high at Lidl-Trek after Mads Pedersenās stage win, and itās clear that his teammate Jacopo Mosca didnāt exactly expect the Dane to take the victory and the pink jersey. The Italian veteran made a bet, and lost his hair because of it.
What was the bet exactly? āIf you win the stage and take pink, you can shave me bald,ā Mosca explained. And so it happened. Pedersen grabbed the clippers with a big grin and gave Mosca a brand-new look. And Mosca? Heās got some explaining to do at home, heās the husband of Elisa Longo Borghini, Lidl-Trekās former team leader.
A betās a bet. Mads did greatā¦ but now a little less so,ā Mosca joked after the impromptu haircut. Pedersen gave props to his teammate for going through with it: āChapeau! And sorry, Elisa!ā š

- Jos van Emden is right to speak out. The UCIās lack of transparency and inconsistent decision-making have eroded trust among teams, riders, and fans alike. When even experienced professionals like Van Emden lose faith, itās a clear signal that the system needs serious reform. Integrity and fairness should be at the core of any governing body, something the UCI needs to be reminded of.ahmed06-05-2025

- Such negative comments that are truly inappropriate and actually ridiculous. He sounds like an old man, bitter that he can't race anymore. Why can't he just be gracious? Or just shut up. Instead of howling for attention, in such a rude manner. Must be Dementia creeping in. We are all living in the Now. Records are there, and some are being broken, some are unapproachable. If he doesn't like it, and it makes him sick, maybe he ought start watching some other sport. Don't want the old mans health to be upset.

- I am not sure if it is the hardest to win. In Flanders and Roubaix well before the finish the Peleton will be decimated and the race will normally be won by the best rider of the day or maybe 2nd or 3rd in case of a mechanical or unlucky break especially in case of Roubaix. In San Remo just before the finish there will still be several riders in contention and they are hard to ditch. For the best riders it is a race hard to win since it is not so selective. But if you are not a top 5 rider but still a top 10 rider this race is your best change to win. You will see more Milan San remo Winners with only 1 monument win than any other monumentsJoostmehrtens19-03-2025
