  • Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers) became the first male British rider in history to win on the white roads of Tuscany with a magnificent solo victory in Strade Bianche on Saturday. The 23-year-old all-rounder kicked clear inside the final 50km of an exciting race and never looked back as a stellar chase group behind failed to gel on the approach to Siena.

    That was a beast of an effort. dropping the entire peloton, soloing for that long until the finish line.

    Superb victory for TP. He left CX a bit earlier than MVDP and WVA and also had a few road races before this. It looks like it paid off big time.

    • @cuebj
      @cuebj Рік тому +2

      It would be a shame if he focused on TdF. Lighting up the classics and winning spectacular stages would be more fun. However, Pog & Vin are riding GT differently while also competing in other races. But to try to follow their example would take away from cross, mtb, and gravel fun

      @cuebj Рік тому +2

      Quite common for chasers to have a 'sod you' attitude to rest of the group who let one or two riders do the work so they can sprint away when the catch is made. Only takes a few moments of parasite-resentment and the chase fails. Pidcock's descending is a big weapon against chasers

      He must’ve been doping since he was a young child then because he’s been dominant in anything he’s done when it comes to a bike since then.
      He’s a genuine prodigy. Doping wouldn’t do anything to help him and make him so good on the downhill either, which is one of the reasons he’s so good in the first place and there’s a ton of riders he’s competing against who are way more sus than him.
      He was competing with elite adults while he was barely a teenager. He’s always been world class in every single age group and in multiple disciplines.
