I would like nothing more than Alaphilippe to show LeFevere that he is still the man.
🔥👊🦋
Lefevre would take credit for motivating him.
I see NBC Sports has "Beyond the Podium" and I heard the term "knucklehead"...what's next,
"The Butterfly Result"? 🤣
Lawsuit
That is exactly what I keep thinking, what are they next going to steal. 😱🦋🤷🏼♂️🦚
I already used IT, too😂...on private terms
I noticed that as well. Chris is getting into their head .rightly so...we know the true 🦋
I believe it's fine -- although there is some controversy...
Met Maikel on a Tudor promo. Really nice down to earth lad & thrilled he has got a pro win. He did say he was good at short prologues being a lead out man 💪
It's great to see local bike races coming back! And thanks to Chris for hosting this in Bend, OR! I miss the Fitchburg Stage race!! Bring that baby back!!
I loved racing Fitchburg. First time was in 1992 with Sons of Italy. 👊🦋
Hi Chris... In Dutch and Flemish we pronounde the combination of letters "ij" like English speaking people pronounce the sound "y" in the word why. And the second part of Zijlaard his name is like the English word art, but you make sound the "a" sound a bit longer...
But no worries, the whole world has problems pronouncing Dutch and Flemisch names correctly.... But first I was thinking that you where speaking about a German or Swiss rider called Zickler or something similar. 😅
Thanks for another great video 🦋
Something like Zee Lart? Thanks 👊🦋🙏
@@ChrisHornerCycling SaiLart :D
@@ChrisHornerCycling Zy - lard -> Why with a Z + Card with a L 😁 Great vid tho! Love your analyses!
I was never close to being a pro tt cyclist but its hard to imagine why anyone would want to ride a TT bike on this course way too many corners and handing needed with very few long straights to get going at speed where aero would have an impact. Juian Allipilippe went full road bike setup and worked for him...this really wasn't a course for pure tt guys..3km hardly enough time to get into a rhythm.
I’m not a fan of the short prologues. Great to see Bernal coming back! Thanks Chris and Garrett! 🦋👊
Good for big power though that can handle the bike. I never said a TT specialist was a favorite to win though. Just a rider with power over a small rider because we all know the Gc riders wouldn’t risk much and we all know JA loves to live on the edge. 😂🦋👊
@@ChrisHornerCycling yeah I agree gc guys had no interest in the stage risk vs reward for a very small time gain not worth it . I was just surprised more riders didn't make it easier on themselves and just go with the road bike. Perhaps they wanted to just get the feel of it before the longer tt in a few days.
8:50 "I thought he looked like his brother, because they're twins" 😂
😂👊🦋
Great show Chris, exciting win for ziggy and yeah this race is going to be interesting. I’d like to see alaphillipe do some good riding!
It would be nice to see JA going well again. 👊🦋
I had "Glasgow flashbacks" watching this short TT track... and Tadej saying it (Glasgow) was one lap too long...
If only to shut Lefevere's big mouth I wouid wish that Julian answers like the big Champion he was before....with winning big races again!!!!
👊🦋
Nah you need him for the funny content 😂
Thanks for your work on bringing at least part of the race back to Bend (thus far). We'll be there!
👊🦋
Super fun course today! Really interesting to see the equipment choices in play. I would like to see more courses like this for prologue ITTs.
It was super entertaining. 👊🦋
Chris say hi to Roger for me at Cascade, noticed he is a sponsor. Raced with/against him for many years down in So Cal, did Nats in Bend in 2010-12 (Redmond in '12 if I remember correctly)...... too old to race anymore but I miss it. I would love to see Alaphilippe return to form, he was definitely an exciting racer to watch. Allez Julian!
I’m sure I will see Roger soon 👊🦋
Chris do you think we could see Tadej Pogacar go to the Vuelta if he wins the Giro and the Tour, or do you think he would let a chance to make history slide for a well earned vacation
Sliding into World Championships*. Giro Tour WC is the most prestigious combo (also it showcases his incredible versatility), Giro Tour Vuelta would make him the first one to win all three Grand Tours in one season. (Merckx, Hinault and Froome have done it in succession, but not in the same season)
I think Pogacar's heart would choose WC, but it would be a unique chance to write history with 3GTs. I think he would do the Vuelta.
Pogacar might be able to win the Triple Crown of cycling this year, i.e. the Tour of Italy, the Tour of France, and the Road World Championship, not to mention the Il Lombardia and maybe something at the Olympics.
If I was pog I would do the Vuelta also if I felt good still the week or two before it started but I would play it by ear and never say I was going so that the organizers called me and perhaps motivated me more to go. 😜💵👊🦋
I think we all need to see just how he goes on the climbs over 2000m at the Giro first! Just because JV isn't there, doesn't mean his bad day can't or won't happen!
yes but then %99 it would mean 🥤
I’ll be there!!!
Happy to see back again Alaphilippe..he is my favorite cyclist of all time...I will never forget his performance at the tour of France 2019...apotheosis!
That was a coming out party in 2019. 🔥👊🦋
Yes, and good luck with your fundation!
I’d be mad if I had to get all kitted up for a two minute effort.
Normally yes but after LBL it will all even out. 😂🦋👊
Chris - If you could get some volunteer drone pilots to capture race footage for a highlights reel of your event, that would be awesome. Separately , thanks for all of the fabulous analysis. Your work has brought my understanding of racing to a new level.
👊🦋🙏
Maikel Ziegler? Zijlaard! 😁 Son of Ron Zijlaard, grandson of Joop Zijlaard ... Both are 'pacers' (derny) on the velodrome. And from Rotterdam!
👊🦋🛵🚴♂️
Carlton Kirby is the best commentator.
Play-by-play, yes. Chris is the best color commentator.
I like Carlton to, he's at about the same level as me when it comes to the nuances of cycling. Thats why I love to see what Chris has to say so I can get a proper prospective on the race.
Maybe the best commentator, but I believe Chris Horner is the best analyst. There is a difference.
It’s some serious work all day solo in the both. 🦋💪
You pronounce Zijlaard in a very weird way. IJ is just one vowel sound, which does not exists in English. You are best using the sound like in ‘I’ or ‘why’. Just in case this rider starts winning more races.
I thought Alaphilippe had a leg fracture that was bothering him. Maybe that’s just been talked about recently as the cause of his subpar form last year(?).
Yep. But he kept racing with it. 🤔🦋👍
His kneecap...😮
For pretty much that whole episode I thought you were saying "Two Door Cycling" 😂
I'll try to make it Aug. 10 in Bend. 😊
👊🦋
Will the cascade classic be live stream
Tao Geoghengan Hart did win the Giro, but there’s an asterisk next to his name. You’ll recall at that time there was only one team with a budget big enough to complete with Ineos. Jumbo Visma. When Jumbo pulled the entire team out of the Giro due to lack of Covid protocols, let’s be honest and acknowledge that there was no competition left for Ineos. Even when their team leader Geraint Thomas crashed out, Ineos simply took a domistique and won with him. So yes, Tao won the Tour but……….really? *******
Unfortunately I don't think we will ever behold the best Alaphilippe. I hope I have to swallow my words
Please let Ala be back, pleeease. The French teams and riders seem to be coming on strong ahead of the Paris Olympics.
🤞🦋👊
Hopefully, nobody will participate in the Olympics. It will be the worst Olympics of any time.
Would be nice for Loulou to come back as he is rare rider that can challenge Pogi when in form. Why they had this prologue when ITT is on stage 3? Also would TT bike make a difference for such a short and technical course?
I don’t think I would have used the tt bike. 🤔🦋👍
Wow! Ethan Hayter is in good form! He was only 2 seconds behind Egan Bernal!!!
And he missed a turn and had to stop. Well to be exact he locked up the back wheel and had to stop to avoid the fence. I forgot to add him into the video. My bad 😱🦋👍
I'm hoping we get something addressing the finish of Stage 1 where Godon was leading out Vendrame but he let off and allowed his teammate to take the win. And they went first and second. Personally I love this for points and for teamwork. But I'm also not Chris Horner. Was this a good move or a bad one?
Give Tao some time. He came back from a pretty nasty injury last year..
Racing looks so different when sitting on a Lay-Z-Boy recliner…
Hehehe 👊🦋
I want to see Alaphilippe make a return to form so he can shove it in Lefevere’s face, but I’m also rooting for Egan Bernal since you want to see the kid make a comeback towards competing for Grand Tour wins. This race will be interesting since you have so many previous Grand Tour winners and none of the current big names.
I was thinking the same thing. 👊🦋🤞🔥
I think he looks like Adam Yates hahahah right!
I’m glad someone got the joke.😂 🦋👊👊
Thumbs up
👍🦋
😊.
3ATGL on top form today. 🏆👊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
👏
❤️🦋👊
Hugh Grant. Sort of😂
Just watched a video on Bend two days ago.
I had no idea that you were so rich!! Average house cost is +$700,000!!! Yow!
Found out why it is called Bend too.
He bought his place in bend when it was not that expensive. 2012-2015 that was not the cost there . Half that price and maybe less
I bought in 2007 ish when the market collapsed. Way before those prices. 👊🦋
@@Kipketer911 still rich !
Alaphilippe will find a way to crash out 🙄
Let’s hope not. 🤞🦋
2nd
Was pulling for McNulty to win the prolog. Maybe next time.
Not sprinty enough for all those corners.
To bad the Brandon. Looked to be a bit risky out there once the rain drops started to fall. Seemed to dry some though. 🦋🌨️🤔
I hope I don't need to subscribe to max, peacock and Flo next year. 🦋🛋️
Right. It’s ridiculous trying to figure out which site I have to watch which race on. 🦋😬
2.3km, why bother?
It was entertaining. I liked it. Never got boring to watch. 👊🦋
Chris, you’re trying way too hard…..
🤪🦋👍
Alaphilipe's racing style "screams" for crashes.
I hope Alaphilippe rediscovers his form. His past poor performance is not exactly his fault, despite what I've heard argued to the contrary. His wife is not his problem. His attitude is not his problem. Nasty crashes and illness has been his problem.
these sorts of prologue are stupid
Why?
leny martinez will be there alaphilip , yates for a stage win !for gc will see njoy tdr bend is to far for me to expensive to get there ! of course its relax in suisse ,if it could inspire other it ll be good .
👊🦋
