All very weird, all very cycling. Let&#8217;s get to it.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1755277631_679_Orange-dots-1.png\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"40\"  \/>What&#8217;s next? Rem-copilot?<\/p>\n<p>Choose your poison: either AI slop has now conquered even our hospitable little corner of sport\/culture, or everyone is so out of ideas as to how to beat Tadej Poga\u010dar, Sporza thought it a legitimately good idea to ask ChatGPT five strategies on how Evenepoel could have beaten Poga\u010dar.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-09-at-09.58.02.jpg\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1414\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Here are the five strategies (to save you the hate click): 1) Surprise Poga\u010dar, 2) Attacks before [the] descent, 3) Exhausting Poga\u010dar, 4) Running on emotions, and 5) Exploiting Poga\u010dar&#8217;s weaknesses.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, ChatGPT, now I&#8217;ll just sit patiently waiting for the AI bubble to burst and send my meagre pension pot back to the Stone Age. At least I&#8217;ll be able to ask ChatGPT for a million different recipes on how to make eating beans every day slightly more interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, here&#8217;s something much more difficult than beating one Tadej Poga\u010dar: beating two Tadej Poga\u010dars, after ProCyclingStats&#8217; live page glitched during Tre Valli Varesine.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/G2qe1nCWUAAHu4K.jpg\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1500\" height=\"488\"  \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Orange-dots-3.png\" class=\"kg-image\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"40\"  \/>Rozman whispers \ud83e\udd2b<\/p>\n<p>This week we saw a retiring Geraint Thomas pop his head up to try to flog his autobiography with an interview in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/2025\/oct\/07\/geraint-thomas-interview-tour-de-france-cycling-bradley-wiggins-mark-cavendish?ref=escapecollective.com\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Guardian<\/a> that <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecollective.com\/geraint-thomas-d-interview-gives-reminder-that-rozmans-case-remains-unresolved\/\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">quickly got away from him<\/a> as the Welshman was asked about the thorny (and unresolved) <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecollective.com\/dave-brailsford-wont-talk-about-the-2012-tour-de-france\/\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">David Rozman case<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But Thomas wasn&#8217;t the only one bringing up the Ineos Grenadiers&#8217; head soigneur currently being investigated by anti-doping authorities this week.
