I think you mean the Rein of Taaramae  
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

As usual Spilak underperforms barely delivering the very minimum of what can be accepted. He is already performing worse than Lecuisinier, despite having better stats all around.
Too bad Novak was injured in the crash, he could have done top 25 here.
Oh Well, the only interesting thing here is that we now know the podium in Vuelta will be Schleck, Pluchkin and X while the Tour will be Taaramae, Gesink, Dombrowski.
Next season Herklotz will podium a GT and from 2019-2027 he will win one each year.

Wish we had overperformed, but well: Haig kicking his season off like Morton with a crash. 18th is still acceptable, but really nothing spectacular. Lowe also involved in a crash? He's way too far down the result sheet for my liking.
As for the winner: the future is now! We may have the new dominator. Congrats and thanks for the report!

Great race by Gesink. The first big name to attack and then keeping up the pace to finish 4th. Hopefully this was just the first glimpse of the many attacks we will see from him in the hills and mountains from Portugal and France later in the season

Already giving up on Spilak's chances?

Just SotD playing mind games with Gesink and Taaramae

I kinda did after 2015, where I decided not to train him anymore, and instead use him as a temporary 1300+ pointscorer until Lecuisinier and Koretzky could take over.
If it wasn't for my 3rd in a row PT win-attempt, I would've sold him already. Much like riders such as Tenorio and Kritskiy he is basically just a cock-tease.

Just as expected, if not for Arndt crashing out (  ). About 100 points from the most stacked climbers field is surely acceptable.

If we're saved from nuclear annihilation, that is.
Thanks for the pressure though.

Taaramae looked fully in control here - Congratz heine, surely an important result
Slagter not exceeding expectations here is fine. I really cant ask him to do much more this season.

As expected not much for us here, atleast 5 guys took it to the finish line.
Important result for Wiesenhof, congrats Heine! |

Great win for Taaramae! Imagine it's a huge relief for Heine to see him being so good.

Olala, definitely a cool result! Nice to see the training of Taaramäe looking to pay off. Congratulations, Heine!
11th for Guldhammer is less than hoped for when seeing the riders he competed against, but then again, there wasn't that much to fight for, as Herklotz looked difficult to beat for 8th. But nevertheless, loosing the sprint for 10th versus Nepo is kind of annoying
And thank you for a nice report, Aquarius97! |

And Taaramae domination begins. Congrats Heine!
24th and 25th is not too bad. Hirt underperforms, but Kulhavy gets at least somehow good result for him. Point wise bad, but that was expected.

Obviously, Tenorio the last from big guns. One race left and his suffering in our colours is finally over
Thanks for report Aquarius. Congrats Heine, Taaramae keeps your chances to survive in PT alive

I thought you were sending him to Portugal. Easy win for Gesink there then

I hate to think what Yates will demand in renewals, and this is before he probably finishes top 10 at the Tour as well
Another great result for us, better than could have been at all expected. If we don't stay up, at least we gave our best. |

Pretty happy with 13th for Kiserlovski backed up with good grouping of 23rd, 26th, and 30th.
Congrats to Heine.
