Kristian Blummenfelt to compete for the yellow jersey

All that is fine and he may be an amazing person and an all-tme great athlete but totally clueless about what it takes to compete for the Yellow Jersey.

Kona didnā€™t turn out too well for Blu. I think all the hype and ā€œscientificā€ training has made him forget the basics. He should lose 3 to 4 KGā€™s of body weight and go back to the training that made him an Olympic Gold medal champion a few years ago.

I believed the likely bogus measurement of his vo2max

Well to be far plenty of people that have followed his whole career as well.

Iā€™d suggest most people donā€™t express an opinion if they dont know anything about him.

Seems like a top bloke, but thats not really relevant to the conversation/ thread.

KB seems like a good bloke but capable of competing for the win in the TDF he is not.

From the comments on this thread, why would you assume that?

Because only 50 users (now 51) are participating in this thread that has 3.4K views? :wink:

Andā€¦

Because the people that have posted know all about him and his backgound, there ony two or three that dont .

And even if his VO2max measurement were correct, we donā€™t know his cycling gross efficiency. We donā€™t know what proportion of his VO2max he can sustain for long periods. We havenā€™t even got to the soft skills.
