Glad you enjoy it! I hope to see you again in my videos.

But fully deserved! Both Primoz and Tadej were by far the strongest. Maybe Almeida could've challenged Roglic, but even before his Illness Primoz was ahead. Congrats Slovenia!

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏​@@theroadcaptain

I knew Ben would give up the red jersey today. Just a matter of damage control to stay on the podium now. Hang in there Ben. Tomorrow is a tough day. 😮

You're welcome! Thanks for watching my videos

Yes, the season is almost over. My plan is to do previews for both Canadian World Tour races, European and World Championship Road Races and Il Lombardia. Still unsure about ITTs as I don't think those races attract viewers.

Thank you for watching! These kind of comments mean a lot! I'm glad you like it.

@@GraemeCadman What do you mean?

@@waynelawrence5847 I know it looks like that is the most probable outcome. But I'm still not convinced that Roglič is that strong on hard and long stages this season.

Hey! I really don't expect any action in the GC group tomorrow. Maybe there can be a bit of chaos if it rains, but otherwise, it's highly unlikely. A lot of hard mountainous stages left, including the one on Sunday!

@@theroadcaptain ....u r probably right... they should save the energies for the hard stages to come...but u never know,If he feels ok he could attack on the last climb....who is the winner in your eyes?...cheers from PIran ( Slovenia )...BTW in case Rogla wins our country will have all 3 GTs in their pocket ... to me looks like sheer science fiction,indeed😂

@@GaiusPrimusMatius I think Roglic is the clear top favorite now. Yes, it would be really amazing for Slovenia to win all 3 GTs in one year! But with such amazing cyclists Slovenia definitely deserves it! Cheers from Serbia

They do look like a strongest team, but they're not dominant. Still a long way to go to Madrid. I'm loving this Vuelta, a lot of swings each day!

INEOS really have to try something

@@jeffguest252 Good pick! Decathlon must go on the offensive today with so many good climbers here.

I agree it's still early days, but I think we'll have a clearer picture of the top favourites after tomorrow's stage. Very nice profile, I like those first mountain stages especially this early in a GT. A lot of battles to look at and enjoy!

@@frederiknielsen3550 You're very welcome! Thanks for watching my videos

@zxtsf I wish you told me this 3 days ago 🤪

@@theroadcaptain you've got no viewers make more Eritrean riders videos, bini, Kudus,Daniel, Natu,and History of Eritrean cycling

Olympics rarely see the top favorite take the gold. It's a carnage of a race. I really think France can take the gold with the aggressive approach.

I think it will be close. 10, 15 seconds either way.

​@@theroadcaptainRemco today can win only if Pogi will go safe mode not to fall.. In case that will go full gas will be in front6of others. Is I know him will go full gas. 13 years ago his first trainer told me that he has one special kid in hiš team. I didn't beleave him.. Big excuse..

He truly is special

So who's your pick?

@@theroadcaptain Pogacar because he's on the form to win & can't hold back from doing so. Today was the icing on the cake for him, tomorrow will be the cherry.

I thought about him too, but I think he spent too much energy today. But for sure he is also a good option for the stage win!

@@lancethegreat4 No chance after today's effort.

I mean they had a pretty good beat on today. I think Tadej was -175

Truly horrendous. And it's the last day to do something, expecting absolute carnage in the breakaway.

@@theroadcaptain Was strange that Pidcock left the race saying it was responsible to do so having Covid...Yet Thomas (who had a shocker) carried on with it.

@keepitreal1547 Pidcock is going to the Olympics in both MTB and Road. Thomas on the other hand has nothing on the schedule in near future

@@theroadcaptain Yes sure, though it was strange Pidcock saying what he did...it implies Thomas not being responsible, just like others have said.

I hope he tries and we see some action from them as well. Also looking forward to the top 10 battle and the breakaway. Looks like a potentially great stage tomorrow.

@@lancethegreat4 I think that the winner will be from the GC group. Probably Pogi

@@cooldude.1811 might be in the breakaway with Cort or Johannessen

With 42kms of climbing split into 6 climbs & so averaging 7kms each

@@keepitreal1547 yes vdp can do it if he is pumped up he is a real deal apart from pogi remco (in process) and wout he is another all rounder. 1st two are locked in gc wout is bit off so vdp or efe rider can go

​@@atanubaruah1130 As a former rider, I know he's the real deal, as are many riders. We'll see.

So we agree!

Glad you liked it

@essey3790 Oh come on, he has two wins in this year's Tour. And 8 in total. Bini is also great, looking forward to their next duel tomorrow!

@@theroadcaptain We shall see tomorrow then. Good luck to both of them.
