Welcome back Scott and Patrick. But it all depends on Visbeek plan for 2025. It was interesting to hear his interview with lantern rouge on how he sets a goal for his individual riders and for the team. To me it looks like the wanted Bini to win stage/stages in Giro and Tour de France and Classics. He said for Louis Menkis it is easy to set a goal, it is already for top ten in the GC, which looks can of broad to me.

If Intermarche needs climbing talent they should consider Jack Burke who’s been taking all those Strava KOM’s recently. He’d be inexpensive but may have the climbing potential the team requires.

Pidcock has convinced himself that Q36.5 will solve the issues he experienced at Ineos. Time will tell. Was he victim or villain? Q36.5 may secure access to premium races in time (due in large part to Pidcock’s signing) but the flood gates won’t open in 2025. How long will Pidcock watch from the sidelines before the Q36.5 kit begins to chafe?

Tudor sponsor the Giro so they're more likely to get a Giro invite above Q36.5, I can't really see Q36.5 getting invites to any of the Grand Tours tbh (I can't see any of the GTs dropping their tradition of inviting local teams anyway, and if they do then Uno-X and Tudor are probably more interesting prospects than Q36.5) I think this is a really solid sign from pidcock that he has no Grand tour ambitions (and I think we've seen he doesn't necessarily like racing GTs especially when he has to take his turn working for someone else)

@Andy_ATB True but he won’t be as widely recognized because mountain biking, cyclocross, gravel have much smaller fan bases. Secondly he won’t make the same kind of money. Because he doesn’t have the same exposure he can’t demand the same kind of salary or attract as many lucrative endorsements as his roadie counterparts. That may be just fine for him and he may be the best mountain biker in the world but for better or worse the general public, especially the European public, see the roadies as the top of the heap.

You obviously don’t like him - I went to school with his dad - good man - also a strong athlete. He’s a very talented mountain bike rider and he’ll do well in the classics and maybe develop GT credibility. Now that the pressure and spotlight is off him he can flourish on the road. That is where he wants to focus. Just that Ineos are poorly managed right now and in free fall as a competitive team and he has been burdened with that and used as a scape goat in not being the next big GC success. Let’s give him a chance.
@DeborahH78Deborahh7810 күн бұрын
@ maybe. He needs someone to look after his PR because he just doesn’t present that well, for me that over shadows any talent. Though maybe part of his attitude and arrogance goes with being terribly unhappy at Ineos, for whatever reason. Like you say it’s a new opportunity for him to shine and hopefully he does. Maybe there’s just too many ‘big’ personalities at Ineos and on a team with no reputation he can have more say. I wish him well and I’m always happy for him to step up and prove me wrong, but he’ll never win the TDF he’s just not that rider

@@DeborahH78Deborahh78As someone who raced against Tom a few times in MTB at youth level, I can definitely back up the fact he’s both a big personality and a good teammate at the same time. Always was there to congratulate his teammates on good results as well as showing respect to other fellow riders. He’s definitely a leader and whilst he might not deal with having to work for someone on the road I believe he’ll be a good project to build a team around.

He was only a fourth or fifth choice GC rider at Ineos!!!!! He's shown nothing that hints he can hang with the big dogs. He's like a local parkrun champ - he looks great against lesser talent. The same argument applies to cyclocross. When the going gets tough Pidcock is MIA. He's only a legend in his own lunchtime.
