  • Bjarne Riis has made his stance clear on the current state of cycling. At a time when Tadej Pogacar has repeatedly shown that he stands head and shoulders above the competition, Riis has little patience for the criticism directed at the Slovenian's extraordinary level.
The article discusses comments made by Bjarne Riis, a former professional cyclist and current team manager, regarding the dominance of Tadej Pogačar in cycling. Riis, who has experience with dominant riders from his time with Team Sky, responds to complaints from other teams about Pogačar's overwhelming success by suggesting that if they are unhappy, they should take action to counter his dominance. He points out that during Team Sky's era of dominance, other teams adapted and found ways to compete, implying that the same should happen now. Riis acknowledges Pogačar's exceptional talent but emphasizes that cycling is a sport where strategies and team dynamics can significantly influence outcomes, urging teams to innovate and challenge Pogačar's lead rather than just complain.
