Wow, very surprising! I'll miss watching him and his brother competing against one another, that was always a fun little thing to keep an eye on in Grand Tours.

Agreed, always a joy to watch him ride, against his brother or not.
Happy he was able to redeem himself at the giro.
Still, it's very sudden. Maybe he didn't want to be a domestique in the giro as the defending champ, maybe he had a dodgy test internally and was asked to stop...
Or maybe he's just not feeling it anymore?
or maybe there was a dope test....
Yeah, an internal test. I mean, I like him as a rider and I don't think his results have been particularly suspect, but this type of sudden retirement after having been at the forefront of all marketing material for the year seems off...
maybe he had a dodgy test internally and was asked to stop…
if simon pops, adam is for sure suspicious....
