How are you inputting your stars? Every time I try to add an emoji that isn't in the forum's list I get an error.
I just copy-pasted that from the GCN site.
But I just did this easy enough on a Macbook
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jakobsen

It's actually a bit time-consuming so I'll leave it at that

EDIT - those were supposed to be bright yellow stars but they came out mono.

If there is a good crosswind it could be fun to watch for the first time if ever.

But paraphrasing another silly name from a few year ago......

It could be renamed most years Crashy McCrash Race. :p:)

for Michael van Staeyen, today's Scheldeprijs will be the last race in his career. And he did grab the chance to finish it with an interview in Belgian press today, headlined "I have beaten all top sprinters". :cool:

Emojipris update: Weirdly the stars come out black on my laptop and yellow on my phone.

It's a classic in itself that the poster who has the most serious interest in this event has Pantani in his name.

All we need later in the year is for a forum member named Kittel to create the thread for Lombardia.

A Race About Nothing


George Costanza (pitching his idea): "Everyone's doing something. We'll do nothing!"

Television mogul: "Why am I watching it?"

GC: "Because it's on tv."

The flat Fleche Wallone! Anyway, I'm not complaining - I'd rather have a sprinter's race than no race.

Both are also mid-week.

Crippling to the economy, encouraging so many people to take sickies.

LS is always feeling sick today, but that's genuine.

45 minutes in and the bunch is destroyed!

Like 20 riders left in the first group.

Only 17 riders left in first group. No QS rider, 4 bora's in it. 2nd Echelon is 20" back, 3rd already a minute.

Did they change the route or why are we getting echelons so often in recent years?
If it was always raced like this Kittel, aka Scheldemerckx, wouldn't have won this race 5 times...
