      Great meth... If you take 6M Euros is not a lot compare to other sports... lets say average salary QB in American football is 55M per season... Tennis, football, baseball, basketball.... Those all make much much more than 6M a year... Someone like Pogacar (GOAT) if transferred into a different sport with same amount of winning would make 150+ Million per season, calculate that per week, day and an hour... Just saying!

    I loved your calculation of Pogi's daily salary, but hey, he's paid not to sit in the office, but to ride his bike. You see where I'm going with it, right? According to Strava, he has ridden 11865 km in 2023, spending 314 hours in the saddle. Let's assume for a moment that all his rides were recorded, and that his average cadence across all rides is, say, 80 rpm (assuming some freewheeling is involved). This means he has performed 314x60x80=1695600 crank revolutions, earning almost 4 euros per crank revolution.

Previous record 9 stages back in 1929-31 I think. And finishing 1 and 2 in the GC four times should be a new record. Might even be some sort of record in Jonas, Tadej and Remco finishing in the top 3 on 4 stages in this Tour but I can't find any numbers to support that

    That wage comparison is crazy.

Cyclists should earn more for sure, way more impressive athletes.

    There isn't just a discrepancy amongst the world's top athletes based on salary, but also, frankly, bang for buck/danger money/effort. Ronaldo vs Pog? 90mins jogging around a pitch falling over, wailing, winking, missing every free kick he insists on taking, versus 6hrs in the saddle, in all weathers, burning 8000 cals, descents at up to 120kmh, idiot spectators, idiot motorbikes, and what's more, repeating it each and every day for three long weeks. Night and day difference in bang-for-buck. $220m/yr for Ronaldo is a joke. And don't get me started on the golfers.

      Using some of your arguments, why not the same salary for all cyclists? Same risk, identical load of work to be in a race... I'm not a fan of football, but it's a bit childish to compare salaries this way. Athletes make money based on sport industry they're in. Like I said, I'm not a football fan, but I admit that football (and other sports) are a bigger industry than cycling. Maybe if people start paying to be on the side of the road to see a bike race, like people pay to get in stadiums, cyclists can earn more 😅

    It all makes sense to me. Regardless of the difficulty of the sport of love of the person, it comes down to - how much money do they bring into the sport ( or the sport brings in itself)? Sports like Basketball, both Football sports, Baseball, all try to maximize profit through TV, sponsors and retail. Cycling (similar to Triathlon) can't seem to make that connection. Where can I get a Tadej UAE jersey? Who can even find a Colnago to buy (definitely not in the US)? AND... Many of the team sponsors have little to do with cycling, so there is a big loss there - ( Visma is a business software) Yes it brings in a good chunk of money for contracts but it restricts the bigger potential for contributions to the sport.

    Cyclists are grossly underpaid but it is difficult to make the formula work. Can't sell tickets in general. Merchandise is limited. And while it is "cool" to wear a replica Lebron James Lakers jersey. No serious cyclists would be caught dead wearing a UAE team kit on the club ride unless maybe if they had 3% body fat and were the fastest in the club. Never ever a WC jersey. Possibly a replica bike but those have become so outrageously expensive few can afford one. Additionally, while football clubs can sell for $billilons cycling teams are always on the verge of failing. Remember Jumbo Visma last year??

    Since it's free to be a spectator unlike basketball etc, I'm not surprised, there's also missed revenue when it comes to jersey sales etc. compared to other sports.

    If American networks show it the money goes up. It won’t though. Look at the tour of California, the distances are shown on a ticker tape in both miles and kilometers. That’s an indicator that the racing culture isn’t embedded in US culture.

      US culture just cannot comprehend a man riding a bicycle for 100km when they use a car for literally crossing the street 😂😂

    Great analysis. Still think ladies are totally underpaid. Would also like to know what the total “cost to company” per rider would be if one includes all equipment and support needed per rider.

    Yes, Isla Bikes are relatively light and that's excellent. In my day kids were drooling over the dreadful 18kg + Raleigh Chopper; a real pigs breakfast of a bike in my opinion. And there's still a market for this travesty of a bicycle, which is on sale again, presumably as a yacht anchor?
