My introduction to cycling was when I was in college and stage 1 of tour of california passed UC Davis. First time seeing professionals, and I've been watching since then. Pogi was my favorite of course because he won, and now... 3 tour de france wins later, he's still my favorite. I hope this tour comes back one day
This is what a cycling highlight video should be! Last 3 miles played out that’s what I’m talking about. Let me see how everything actually happened instead of just showing 10 second clips. Only thing is they spoiled it in the thumbnail!!’
Tour of America!! Maine to Boston; Berkshires; NYC to Phili; NJ to DC; Appalachians; Sprint stages through the south and midwest; the Rockies; AZ/NM/NV desert sprints; PNW finish in Seattle
Back then some of the stupid reporters often pronounced totally wrong : one "Poja-car" -- not sure whether he thought of any kind of car ? And who would have guessed that Pogi was the rider to beat in the coming years - I did see that coming actually!
Given the behaviour of the fans, I'd prefer if there were none. Dressing up and running in front of the camera... clearly only interested in themselves, not the racers.
he fixated on the camera moto in front, but then when the moto suddenly stopped at the corner, that caused him to go wide and messed up his rhythm. Don't know why the moto decide to stop right at that corner. Just dumb.
You're right, I agree the Moto messed him up. But they always do that - stop or peel off before the last 500 meters or so. Agree though that it's a real shame for Higuita. @@WanderingSword
@@brianmessemer2973 I can understand if the moto peeled off to the side if there's an exit, but here it stopped in a corner before the finishline,.. and then oddly decided to go again once Higuata and Pogacar passed it, so not sure what was the moto's intention there. Maybe moto guy thought "oh shoot maybe this is not a good spot to film"
@@WanderingSword riders usually paced the moto bike in a final sprint which give them and advantage in the past. In modern cycling the motor bike will just peel off in the finish not giving any rider an advantage. Higuita was using the bike as an advantage but he wasn't expecting the bike to stop 🤣🤣🤣🤣. If the bike didn't stop he would paced the bike to victory.
Phil Gaimon got his time beat up Baldy today only by a few seconds. Look how hard they were racing as well in the finale. I call BS Phil is natural lol
still now, 4 years after, he has "baby face", smile, funny-positive attitude, always polite and sportsman ... and a lot of incredible victories.
I hope they bring this back. California has so much to offer for the sport
Yea what happened to the race?
@@nu3v331the community in there doesn’t want traffic stop or something like that etc… They don’t love cycling much

Watching in 2024…. Holy cow how far he’s came.
Congrats his absolute dominance and great vengeance during TDF in 2024.
After a year, that man just won the Tour de France, and in very spectacular manner. What a great rider Pogacar, chapeau !
right before Tadej became the most unstoppable force in the sport
Watching after Tejay’s comments about Tadej winning Stage 19 2024 TDF.
Tejay was pissed Tadej beat Matteo
"The day Pogacar revealed himself to the world"
Here after his victory in the Giro d'Italia, how far he has come 🏆✨
Who's here after Pogacar's 2020 Tour de France victory?
Me! He's phenomenal!
POGACAR!
I am not sure but here I am.
And days before his repeat
here 3 years later, after he's won the tour twice and came 2nd twice...
Vsaka čast Tadej!

Watching after Pogacar TDF win!
I miss this race. Hopefully they comeback next year 🤞
May 2020 LOL.
I bet he can pronounce his name now....LMAO!
Wtf is pozicar lmao
Thumbnail spoiler and spoiler in the first line of the description. PLEASE NBC don't spoil this great race for fans around the world!
4:05 He'll never say the name wrong again now
tah-DAY poe-GAH-char, said almost perfectly @4:51
I think we have to remember this name. He won the Tour of France at 21.
This is when I really noticed Pogi. I was like, WHOA! Who is this guy? At 20? Seriously?
rim brake domination
I think Pogacar can win the Tour of France one day.
Lol
I think he can't win any tour lol
I'm just joking BTW.
@@xymonmanzano2379 lol
@@xymonmanzano2379 ☮️👍
ages well:)
Hearing "podzagar" for me as Slovenian is very akward🤣
Its POGACAR!
Brilliant race
Thanks for uploading this!
Pojacar 😂😂😂 Little did he know he was mispronouncing the name of the GOAT
that how you say it in Slovenian I think
@ Nah…
@@tonyg3091 yeah
@ It isn’t that hard to find out how the man pronounces his own name, is it?
@@tonyg3091 its the same with haaland he says call me haaland, when it is pronounced håland. pogacar does the same I think
Again with the thumbnail spoiler!
Who ever is posting the videos needs to find another job!
This is worse than Yahoo's daily Game of Thrones spoilers.
Bring it back😢😢😢
his best year ever was... 2024. Only 25, can't wait watch him racing in 2025!
"Pojacar"😭
maldita curva!!!!! pero que espectáculo brindaron !!!
Phil mispronouncing pogacars name is hilarious. If only they knew what was to come
bring it back!
Anyone know where to watch the full stage? Beginning to end.
It’s in the city of Fontana foo!!!!

I'm so much better than these guys. Looked like an easy ride. I could have easily placed top 5 on my new Yamaha scooter!
Big mistake by Higuita on that turn. Karius-style.
More cars line the roadside than fans... only in America
yeah, one car for each spectator and a few autonomous cars came up to view the race as well
Given the behaviour of the fans, I'd prefer if there were none.
Dressing up and running in front of the camera... clearly only interested in themselves, not the racers.
sorry for Higuita he was doing really well
It’s a bike race to the end...he totally mishandled that turn
I think the bike blocked him too
Will they find a way to TJ back into yellow
Higuita gave that win away! 😣

really feel sorry for Tejay
Who is the man on stage next to Pogacar?
Sergio Higuita?
@@alainrogez8485 No, the man who gave yellow jersey to Pogačar.
Tj is finished as gc leader...sorry to say if but it's true.
....the leader of that team is Rigoberto Uran
Tejay needs to retire or he's too skinny for his height needs to find a balance
Like Talansky ..TJ is just not tough enough to race at this level
Really? 🤪
Who's that commentator keeps calling Pogacar Pochagar? ..Duh..
Come on nbc....stop giving away the results in the title.
Garcia Barbara Lopez Gary Thompson Timothy
Rodriguez Michelle Lewis Patricia White Ruth
climbing doesnt mean cornering... LOL RiP
Allen Sharon Rodriguez Donald Young Carol
Whatever happened to him?😂
Lol the lady at 12.40 is saying that enough of this BROMANCE
he's to young go back to your Mommy and get some cookies and milk
i think tj's whole team minus phinney was climbing better... Shame on ef for not actually backing the best rider and trying to back a name.
Oog

They were looking at each other an awful lot in the finale.
Give up Durianrider.
Phil can climb..but he’s not good enough to ride at this level
Yea, but these racers also have drafts, Phil didn't I'm assuming.
