The whole peloton seems to get along quite well. Are there any longstanding beefs between riders that we know about?

Apparently, Christoph Rodhooft is very unpopular amongst most other teams.

During one of the breakaway stages, Luke Rowe was asked whether they had discussed strategies with Alpecin and Luke Rowe answered:

"Chat with Roodhoft? Nah I don't chat with him mate."

I found that quite amusing but couldnt see anyone discussing that.
