How Primoz Roglic Really Feels On The Tadej Pogacar Reign

[@normal_norm2627]

Primoz will always be my FAV rider. Such class.

[@simongilliat2205]

Yes, agree. Tadej and Remco also seem to be nice guys, but Primoz has real sympa!

[@fsquared64]

Truly seems like an all around good guy.

[@nigelshannon2069]

We are so lucky to have so many really nice people at the top of the cycling world.

[@olljum]

Such a character, such a legend. Class act.

[@fabulusmaximus]

This is my first time watching Primoz interview, and he has such a great personality. Honest, calm, relaxed and yet still a fierce fighter on the road.

[@bubbachua]

Chapeau flobikes for doing this interview, chapeau Rogla for maintaining such tremendous composure with the difficult questions… 2025 lets go!

Primoz is the GOAT in the interviews, such a nice guy to listen to

[@adamc2579]

Come on guys, let’s move on from all these negative questions and sarcastic jokes for Primoz. You’ve just touched on his incredible trajectory and all he has achieved. Every cyclist has accidents, it’s part of the sport. I love the fact that he’s gone from having a visma stick up his a** to now being super relaxed and way more open. He looks like he’s enjoying his racing, and he deserves it. Chapeau Primoz, have a great 2025.

[@Torundun]

Slovenian sportsmen are such great guys. Even when they're serious, they're charming and easygoing. Just like Dončić, Tadej, and, here, Primož.

[@TraderJHart]

Primoz is such a class act. Like this guy a lot. So humble. Never change, Primoz. And good luck in 2025!

[@kubackjeee]

How can you not love this guy

[@audengrumet3985]

Very easily. He’s dull as a spoon.

[@annag5458]

I was screaming for Primoz on the 2020 TDF, such an amazing rider and a lovely guy. Chapeau!

[@freew0rrld]

"I'm just in the moment". Wise words from Primoz.

[@badodnk]

Pogacar is honestly the goat of cycling and Roglic knows it and just appriciate the history like everyone else. Class guy.

[@christucher6324]

Based on that interview, I’m now a BIG Primoz fan!! How could you not be? Seems super likable, genuine and honest, answering questions that were bound to be painful, but that every fan wants to hear answered.

[@FloBikes]

EXACTLY :)

[@trudgin62]

He is a good guy !

[@mick6ful]

Total 100% professional. What a guy!

[@zznovak1601]

Boom!!! Greg we asked and you delivered. I wanted interview with this dude more than Tadej and you did not shy away from key questions. HUGE thank you!!!

[@FloBikes]

Thanks Buddy. I was thinking of you. 😃😃

[@TheBrosiedon]

Chapeau Gregor and FloBikes for securing this interview for the English speaking audiences. It’s great to hear Primoz speaking instead of the usual “ohh yaaa you know we fight again tomorrow” lol

[@FloBikes]

thank you.

[@rogerbakheim1195]

Pogacar is my favorite, but I REALLY wish that Roglic can have a season without crashes so we can see his full potential.

[@bens.6458]

We’ve seen his best. He can only win the TDF Bradbury style now. He’s definitely deserving. I think he’s won his last grand tour. I hope I’m wrong, but it seems that way.

[@Queen-be6md]

@@bens.6458 He's still better than anyone besides Jonas and Tadej (probably Remco), so if those 3 aren't there he's automattically a favourite

[@tomjojic2724]

Great interview. I hope Primoz can surprise everyone and win the big one. He deserves it.

[@dsmlive3982]

Primoz so classy with his response to TP.

[@455LT1]

I'm happy he left Visma. He's such an easy guy to root for and an exciting rider.

[@recrevs963]

Can't believe they let him move. Remember it was Primož who put them on the map.

[@davidlilja9180]

So nice to hear Primoz is a nice guy, just as he always seemed to be. There's no shame in being left behind by someone (Tadej) whose just better than you are, either.

[@lesterflockton]

Love you Primos. Great athlete. Beautiful personality. Sweet family.

He is a great guy!

[@joehopfield]

Thank you, rare to hear primoz so relaxed and open.

[@FloBikes]

We were happy to get him to open up!

[@jameskellogg1162]

Great interview. I started on a motorcycle as well at just six years old, then switched to cycling at thirty . Racing motorcycles really helped me a great deal on the bicycle , especially the mountain bike

[@phildelgiudice3448]

Nice job with Primoz. Look at his accomplishments. He’s a beast and looks like a great guy too!

[@zero716]

I liked the interview and appreciate Primoz’s humility and patience! It feels like your were trying to get him upset or irritate him though, which feels unfair. If that wasn’t the case, then disregard.

[@mikulas13]

good questions, even better answers.

[@FloBikes]

thanks buddy.

[@hernanhernandez3861]

Probably the most naturally gifted, level-headed athlete in the pro peloton. Who buys a bike at 22 and a few short years later has a palmares like Primoz?? 4 Vueltas, a Giro and almost a Tour. Teams signing riders at 18 these days. A big champion with crashes that made him stronger.

[@brankospalovic9844]

Great man! Wish you great 2025 season Primoz!

[@RyanPerusich]

What a great interview!!

[@antibejbi]

Love this interview. I started following road cycling more seriously around 10 years ago and Lotto-Jumbo was the my favorite team, because they were hard working underdogs with no money (and rode Bianchis :P ). Imagine my hapiness when Roglič joined them and started winning big time. Who could ever know then what big things were to come for slovenian cycling? Anyway, Primož already secured a very special place in many hearts and he still keeps on inspiring people. Maybe 2025 will be the year when he has a lot of luck and competitors have a bit less of it :P Either way, all cards are gonan be mixed again and it's gonna be one hell of a season, I'm sure.

[@DeborahH78Deborahh78]

Great interview and insight

[@starlitshadows]

Very good interview. Asked several questions that I've definitely been curious about. Primoz is always so positive but you can hear in his voice at the beginning this was a rough year. Rooting for Primoz more than anyone to have a great year next year. The man deserves it. Hoping for a healthy big 4 at the Tour next year so we get to watch something special.

[@FloBikes]

Thanks for watching! And yeah, trying to get to those questions some fans have of Primoz. :)

[@robis1975]

In 2011 he bought first bike. 13 years later he has 88 wins in pro cycling and 5 GC wins. I think question about a bad luck is not quite appropriate

[@aletheia3]

Best interview questions ever... Not the same old, same old. You get deeper... Nice work. Interestingly, despite what GCN commentators and others always say, I have never considered him to have had bad luck in tours. I think he's a guy that goes out and gives 200% all the time, and that is what matters to him... That's what I do on my bike every time I ride around my city. At the end I look at Strava, and think well, I did my best. Give it all, and don't look back... Primoz is relatable for the oldish, everyday cyclist that could only dream of being in the elite class.

[@FloBikes]

thank you, I appreciate that.

I always wondered if Primoz could have been better than Poagacar if he had started cyclin from a young age like Pogacar

[@Cycleplayer117]

Roglic is not unlucky, he gets to live a better life than most. He must of felt pretty crap after that question. Handled it like a champ.

[@robbchastain3036]

He is ultimately having a conversation with his fans and he knows he will get those questions, or maybe not as it is tempting for interviewers to toss lame softball questions. And sports give its players and fans lots of life lessons and that was a big one for Primoz, his humiliating defeat in that floppy helmet and O the pain of failure, we can all relate, yet there is the joy of a comeback and Primoz is living that.

[@Cycleplayer117]

@@robbchastain3036 I understood the intent of the question. I just got a bit emotional hearing how he answered such a question, but yeah you made a fair point

[@robbchastain3036]

@Cycleplayer117 O I'm right there with you, no Tour defeat had been so heartbreaking since Laurent Fignoun's eight-second loss to Greg LeMond in '89 and it was a time trial, too. The tears of a mighty two-time Tour champion over his defeat showed us the cost of his miscues, such as no aero bars, in that duel with his greatest rival and former teammate. And I was happy for Greg, while hurting for the great Frenchman who had congratulated Greg on a stage win just a few days earlier, true sportsmanship.

[@davidhuck3210]

A One of a Kind Rider! Primocz is a mature person and is openley about almost everything. Just a MAN. Other Riders are just KIDS even his strongest opponents. >Good interview, good answers.

[@FloBikes]

thanks!!

[@bobbresnahan8397]

Crahes are built into the race courses. We could build them out easily by an order of madnitude. We can also help prevent them with better, safety-oriented race crews. We should build them out and make the sport safer! Safety should be a priority.

[@noni1532]

The move to Bora was a reaction to the decision to let Kuss win the Vuelta imo. In retrospect the right move! And a lesson for Visma: even within a team, the winner must be determined under competitive conditions. And this was likely not the case after stage 17 and the Angliru ascent. Vingegaard could have closed the 8 second gap.

[@photomotor]

winner of five grand tours is not bad luck

[@jerrychicken967]

Top riders used to help others in the Team to win in prep for the major races. I think a lot of crashes happen at the front of the bunch these days. The misnomer that not being in the front is dangerous must be realised. If you're a top GC Guy then winning the small races aren't that important. The Team mates can go for those wins. Someone like Primoz can help Hindley win smaller races by doing a bit of work on the front earlier and then peel off. The competition at the front is high at every race now so being at the pointy end, competing for space is not worth the risks. Top riders have to learn this.

[@JasonLiske]

Wow almost sounded scripted, inspiring decent honesty. I wonder if the second language creates more authenticity or vulnerability to cut straight to truth. Great interview.

[@Ventoux10]

Have a think about your strategy and tactics within the Tour de France 2025. How can I avoid crashes? Position in peloton? You can win.

[@millerpils]

Trying to fish for controversial Tadej comments didn't really work.

[@FloBikes]

It's called asking questions people are curious about, not fishing or baiting.

[@larkiess]

Interviewer trying a bit too hard to bait Primoz into giving a spicy answer. How do you expect him to dislike Tadej? They are countrymen and have always gotten along. There is no reason to suspect he has negative thoughts about him.

[@FloBikes]

Donno about you, but I'm curious, about that answer. I think others are too.

[@Ryan-wf6ib]

Amazing interview for an amazing rider. However someone eventually has to ask this guy WHY he thinks he bonked 2020, it’s still a mystery

[@adamolig3865]

I thought that comment "where there's smoke there's fire" was about something completely different 😘Tadej😘

[@FloBikes]

[@MikeK02048]

Primoz seems like a very likable guy in this interview. But I can't get past him attacking Sepp Kuss (his teammate) in the 2023 Vuelta when Kuss was the leader of the race. That was a classless act, and if it were not for Jonas being a few seconds ahead of Primoz in the GC and riding Primoz' wheel (basically saying, "You might drop Sepp, but if you do I'll stay on your wheel and you won't win the Vuelta regardless"), I'm convinced Primoz would have dropped Kuss and taken the leader's jersey.

[@williamedwards468]

Same here. Was my all-time favorite rider, but haven't been able to root for him the same since then. Conversely, I never really loved Jonas, but now I'm a much bigger fan of his.

[@JenningsinDam]

Maybe his crashes are a result of bike riding seeming easier than ski jumping and he doesn’t concentrate as much?

[@trudgin62]

Really good to ask about not riding from 12 leading to crashes.. and giving him the chance to answer that question that gets whispered by commies in every race. He has different talents from ski jumping, he learned how to crash and to reset his dislocated shoulder by the road 😉 but also the back injuries that still haunt him
