“Dutch rider opens up about losing faith in Visma-Lease a Bike’s training methods…”(dnlbenson on Dylan Van Baarle)
Ineos and TVL have been 2 of the most dominant teams of the last 15 years. Even last year Visma finished 2nd in UCI.
If they aren’t good enough for you, the problem is you.
I agree.
And just because some riders don't like Visma's training methods doesn't make them wrong.
It just means Visma needs to spend a little extra time making sure new riders really understand what they're getting into.
I'm sure EF's Laissez-faire methods aren't for everyone either.
