Cycling fans worldwide are buzzing with excitement, and the challenge has even inspired major brands to offer record-breaking sponsorship deals to support the endeavor. Legendary cyclists like Eddy Merckx and Bernard Hinault have praised the plan, calling it “the ultimate test of cycling’s grit and glory.”
With the cycling world on the edge of its seat, Pogačar’s bold move is poised to become one of the most thrilling narratives in sports history.
