Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Few months later, here we are: Pablo Torres will make his GT debut in La Vuelta. 050
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 27/07/2026This GC Top 5 is the youngest ever at the Tour de France: Pogačar (27), Evenepoel (26), Del Toro (22), Seixas (19) & Martinez (23)— 23.4 years old. 23.4: 2026 — 23.8: 1904, 1906 24.0: 1909 24.4: 1907 24.6: 1908 24.8: 1910, 1983 25.4: 2025 25.6: 1905, 1935 020
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 02/05/2026Pure drama Tour de Romandie couldn't find a single sponsor for its yellow jersey (500k€ hole, around 10% total budget) the year that the best cyclist of modern era is wearing it 4 days out of 5. www.cyclingnews.com/pro-cycling/... 040
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Comparte la agencia EFE en Twitter esta foto de la segunda etapa de la Vuelta a España de 1956 (248 kilómetros entre Santander y Oviedo). Deduzco (y adjunto captura de Google Maps) que se trata de la playa de San Antolín, en Naves. 70 años entre ambas instantáneas. 181
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/03/2026🔮 Let's play a bit of cycling fantasy here: A) Yes or no: will Tadej Pogačar end his career with all three GTs and all five monuments in his palmares? B) Break it down: how many GTs and monuments will he retire with? 531
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 05/12/2025Anyone out there that has listened to this Fuglsang w/Pogačar episode? 000
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 05/10/2025All speculation here, but, considering that Seixas's peak will arrive in a few years, will it match in time with Pogačar's decline? Will him be the one to make the Slovenian—and all of us— see that his time has passed? 1100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 16/06/2025🇪🇸 Spain National Championships are NOT in the plans of Juan Ayuso, Enric Mas or Carlos Rodríguez, per sources. Neither in the schedule of Mikel Landa, still recovering after Giro' crash. Both Alex Aranburu and David De la Cruz will defend their road and ITT titles in Granada. 030
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 23/05/2025From his sunny altitude camp in Sierra Nevada, Jonas Vingegaard has sent a warm hug to all those who proclaim that to be a cyclist you must wear long and preferably white socks. 3472
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Juan Ayuso showed two things today: atomic legs (he warned us yesterday)... and maybe an excessive focus on Roglic. He only had eyes for him; the others didn't exist. It worked, though. Superwin, but there's a long way to go. 130
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 15/04/2025🚩 Pablo Torres, currently riding with UAE at Giro d'Abruzzo (watch him out at Thursday' stage) will compete afterwards at 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐞. 240
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 12/04/2025Today we published this at Relevo. We've compared Tadej Pogačar's weight (≈66 kg) with the 122 cyclists who have finished in the top-10 at a monument this century. The result, this awesome piece by my fellow Darío Ojeda ⬇️ www.relevo.com/ciclismo/tad... 0162
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 26/03/2025At his age, 𝐉𝐮𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐲𝐮𝐬𝐨 has more victories (13) than Induráin, Contador, Valverde, Freire, Perico, Lejarreta, Ocaña and Bahamontes. He just have two Spanish cyclists ahead of him: Alfonso Gutiérrez (14) and Miguel Poblet (37). 📸 EFE/Siu Wu 180

Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/01/2025📍 Classica Camp de Morvedre (Valencia) Back at it. 040
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Yep! First kilometer of La Bola del Mundo climb (that grey wall at the end). 020
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 20/01/2025⌛ 236 days. Tadej, Jonas, here I am, waiting for you. 2110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 15/01/2025Already confirmed by the Team. movistarteam.com/2025-01-15/m... 130

Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 12/01/2025Pablo Torres will do Vuelta a Andalucía (19-23 Feb) after his Pro debut with UAE at Tour Down Under. 090
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/202410. Afonso Eulálio (23) Good climber and WT debutant with Bahrain-Victorious. Two 2nd places at Volta a Portugal stages and overall 5th at the Vuelta a Asturias won by Isaac Del Toro. A season to learn (and improve). 120
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20249. Jørgen Nordhagen (19) They say he's the new Vingegaard, and not only because his size (almost identical). Overall winner at Giro della Regione Friuli (+ some classics), 3rd at u-23 Liège and 7th at Deutschland Tour. Will be his first season with the top guys (as Torres in UAE). 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20248. Paul Magnier (20) Top-level sprinter who will grow asides Tim Merlier. Three stage wins at Tour of Britain (!), green jerseys at Giro Next Gen (+2 stages) and Course de la Paix, besides some podium finishes ahead of De Lie, Matthews and other top guys. 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20247. Pablo Castrillo (23) I'm curious to see him under real pressure. He will probably do the TdF, but before that he will have work to do at Paris-Nice and other though races. What kind of rider will he be in GT for Movistar? I'm willing to know. 120
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20246. Madis Mihkels (21) After his GT debut, it's time for a (slight) confirmation season with EF. Bronze at the 2024 Europeans, he was 10th at Roubaix and got top-10 stage finishes at Giro & Paris-Nice. Besides that, he just won National Cyclocross Championship. All-around rider. 100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20245. Jan Christen (20) He was just a few meters away from the podium in the Worlds road race after a stunning performance, but I have the feeling he's going to have the best season among all the riders on this list. He will do his first GT at Vuelta '25. 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20244. Alex Baudin (23) I was a bit surprised AG2R let him go. French talent for GC (not abundant) and also with qualities to improve in short term. Top-10 in Itzulia, top-25 in Giro and overall victory at Tour du Limousin. Let see what space EF gives him. 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20243. Søren Wærenskjold (24) The least-known of all the riders who had a great 2024. TT, classics and sprinter, all in one. Top-10s at Roubaix, European TT Championships, TdF & Tirreno stages. Besides that, National TT champion and overall winner of the Belgian Tour & Tour Poitou. 100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20242. Pablo Torres (19) A year to learn, but also a year to be challenged. He will start at Tour Down Under and, if nothing changes, then he will do Vuelta a Andalucía. Step by step. UAE has a GC leader prospect in its hands. 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 24/12/20241. José Luis Faura (24) A cult cyclist away from WT/PT this 2024. Winner of 4 GC races (including Volta a Galicia) with Cortizo Team. Once the uncertainty of his new contract is over, he'll have his chance at Burgos BH. 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 23/12/2024These are the kits I've liked the most so far. Let's see if Visma, Alpecin or EF have some bombs. 430

Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Tom Pidcock and three more Q.365 riders are here for La Vuelta 2025 presentation. Well, well, well. 3132
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Marlen Reusser and Pablo Castrillo with their new kit. 051
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Official. Movistar will wear a white jersey in 2025. www.relevo.com/ciclismo/mov... 110
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Maxim Van Gils and Lotto Dstny have definitely broke up, per rider' agency (A&J). 030
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 26/11/2024🍫 Honorable mention: Max Verstappen Another title, and that's four in a row. In what many point out as his worst season in F1, he got eight wins, the same as 2nd, 3rd and 4th driver of World Championship combined. Chilling. 100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 26/11/20245. Alex Pereira Probably the least known on this list. Well, he's been the best fighter of the year in the UFC (yes, even above Topuria). Three title defenses in light heavyweight, three wins. Nothing more to say. 100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 26/11/20244. Armand Duplantis Arguably, the greatest tyrant in world sport. The ten best pole jumps in history are his. The last one, of course, came in Paris. Pressure? What is that? The perfect definition of competing against oneself. 100
Daniel Arribas @danielarribas.bsky.social · 26/11/2024🥉 Leon Marchand Biggest star of the Olympics. Five medals, four of them gold, and the absolute idol in Paris. Unbeatable. The only thing that counts against him is the exposure, too much concentrated over the course of a whole year. 100
