Hoping to see some return to normal (if not in 2021, hopefully in 2022). Things have been turbulent here as well. Broadcast rules and recent (hopefully temporary) job loss have limited my ability to actually watch the Giro and Vuelta. There's a current pool of young talent that exceeds any period ever before. There's also economic pressures that inhibit sponsorship to degrees that haven't been there since WWII. Hopefully, the sport will take a huge step forward as the world overcomes COVID-19.
it’s been awesome to watch unfold before us. can’t wait to see a tour with remco, seppuko, mvdp, wout, tgh, carapaz, sivakov, etc, et al. if one of the gt’s were designated as an only 25 and under stage race, i’d drop everything currently to catch every televised minute. thinking that when we look back in a decade, we’ll truly realize how lucky we had it this year and the next few with an embarrassment of young talent.
