Rumors about Peter
I’m hearing rumors that Peter Sagan might be retiring after the Giro next year.
Has anyone heard anything?

When I watched the video from his fan Q&A at his Gran Fondo last month, it didn't sound like he was planning to. Then again he could have changed.

He said he wanted to ride the Giro before retiring.
He didn't say that the Giro would be his last race.
Reporters are f'in morons.

The Amgen Tour of California was perfect for Sagan, in terms of weather, attitude, skillset and California style of reportage. I actually think he is "bummed out" (as they say) that TOC is off the calendar for a year (or perhaps more.)
I have no idea how this affects his outlook towards retirement, but this has got to be an upcoming season he is not as excited about.
If they were having TOC, I'm not sure he would ride the Giro, it is not exactly his cup of tea, more of a "Bike Racer Bucket List" type of thing.

Cali is over rated
but a hell of a lot nicer than Europe.
Libs out there should just get the taxpayers to sponsor the event and keep it going

ain't that easy. it's the bleeping weather. earthquakes, mudslides and firestorms be damned. one of the main reasons the toc sprang up in the first place.

place ain’t affordable
mass homelessness and trash that’s associated with it
people leaving as quick as they can for lower taxes/cost of living
state that is eroding personal freedoms
economy based on government and not free market
ok
get those tax payers to pay for the tour of California

So a no-news thread about a guy that can foresee the end of his career has devolved into stupid political bull****, neat.
