Great shows all winter, guys. Caleb Ewen can win a couple of second tier races over one season for Ineos but that's probably it. More evidence Sir Jim is looking at the short term only.
Since Ineos are looking for a second sponsor, Caleb Ewan could bring them results they are currently unable to unlock. Maybe this would alleviate pressure and help riders 'find their Mojo'.
@jdyches37 you have a point there, he is not, but I guess ewan isn't either, he was but not anymore and certainly not without a top sprint train to launch him 200m away from the line.
@ also true. And idk if his issues at lotto were lack of a leadout or what. I guess we’ll see how kind time has been to him. I think ineos can give him a good train. Will be interesting to see how this all plays out tho
Being an Australian… I think it’s pretty poor for a European country not to send junior cyclists to the world championships because it is too expensive or if they are likely not to win. Australian juniors and semi-pro athletes are always travelling long distances and paying more to get those priceless experiences. It is not always about winning.
Ewen hmmm...yeah strange signing Ineos in a battle with Israel to have the most over the hill squad....Caleb not the fastest anymore and also not the best at maneuvering in traffic.

Plapp, Welsford and O’Brien I believe all had a primary focus on the olympics in 2024.
Ineos should have kept Viviani on board instead, he's a teamplayer and way more versatile
But Is Vivian’s capable of sticking beating the top sprinty bois?

Bryan Coq ridden track Championnats de France and gets a win, legit guy.

Guys I understand you need to have ads but please shorten them. Falling asleep by the time you finish reading them
Yes. I agree. Everything is weird down under.
It's because they are upside down
Actually, Ewan's problem is not a lack of training but spending too much time at altitude.

Feels necessary to mention the yellow card when mentioning the sprint wins (even if just because of the new rules coming in)
So what happens when you win a prologue if it’s not an official race? Does your team manager even care?
UCI points or never mind
Spencer must be the most underwhelmed person ever.
they mean that sprinters dont train as much easy mileage ... like track vs longer than 10k Running
No offense to Ewan but hes been off form for some time. He's not at the tdu which surprised me.

Much ado, 2025!
Must be slim Pickens with the $$$ being thrown around?
Ewan has been washed for several years
INEOS, Not sure why the owner is allowing his money to be managed this way.
Caleb is like a cav. Lethal if dropped off with under 150m, but rarely a winner if having to navigate a sprint by himself.
Valverde as a coach? Thats a shit idea
