    G already suggested in his podcast creation of the Grey Jersey for older riders
  • @singh0003
    if your theory of "better nutrition/training/technology" is true (for breaking the old long standing Doped up Record by Pantani), then we shouldve seen the record slowly breaking or coming closer to, over the last 30 years. Not being broken by 3-4 riders in one stage, on the same day, in the last fatigue filled week of a big tour, and also going faster than Doped up Lance by 7 mins!!! there is definitely doping/PEDS going on, and the authorities are not acting on it.
  • @kjaime7030
    The white jersey should be for rookies and not be based on age. Maybe first time in a Grand Tour and not just first time in the Tour de France. Most first-timers are going to be pretty young, but if you're 35 and never been good enough for a team to take you to a Grand Tour before and you beat a 22-year-old, you friggin' deserve a special prize, I think.
  • @edudutra
    I don't know if I agree with the Hawaiian jersey to Campenaerts before today's stage. He tried a lot of breakways, and don't forget he made 5th in the TT with great performance, only losing to the 4 big guys. He stayed in the hot seat all day at that stage.
  • @bernhard1360
    before the final stages i wanted to thank you for the daily show! it's been great to follow the tour this way, definitely made me more interested in the race!
  • @morrisizing
    If you thought Victor has been having a chilled Tour until his stage win hiding in the bunch, I don't think you have been watching!
  • @MrSkaffen
    Many thanks for bringing Ed in he’s a great guest, looking forward to his current verses vintage equipment comparison all ready 👍
  • Did you listen to Campanarts statement? Crap treatment by team management
  • @f1fnatik
    From what I could find, the Plateau de Beille was last ridden in 2015. There were surely very light carbon bikes ridden in 2015. That was nine years after Pantani's record and still, no one beat his time. This year, three riders were faster and the record was improved by an eye-widening three minutes and forty seconds. That is a LOT to think about.
  • @ThePixelize
    6:05 "Now the average amateur is almost ... just as fast as a top pro was 10 years ago" Bro, whatever you're smoking (or otherwise taking to achieve that performance ;)), I want it.
  • An question in addition to the over-/underrated talk today about the climbing jersey. maybe give points not to the first rider over a certain line, but for the fastest time up an hill. and who in the end has the fasted accumulated time over all mountains wins the climbing jersey over all? may this take our beloved jersey out of the hands of the gc guys, because they will not attack any climb?
  • @recrevs963
    good ideas and discussion. the TT at the end is very cool.
  • @savagepro9060
    Shouldn't there be an Emotional Jersey for the stage winner who Breaks Down the best during the post-race interview?
  • One of the things I’m going to miss most about this podcast/show finishing up in a few days is Producer Emily’s “day” overdub in the fluff up of the X portion of the show. Laughed every time.
  • you all are welcome to my hometown in the Himalayas, at 3400m 🤗. We ride our bikes upto 5700m 🕺🏽
  • What is the scheduled/expected completion of Ed's testing!?
  • Pantani record is 30 years old and has stood for that long time. How come it's only been broken now.
  • @ravil4388
    Really like how people like Ed follow the logical and scientific approach before they jump to speculation about doping. That's what other experts also say, like their amateur kids are doing better numbers than pros 30.
