Forgot Heinrich, thank you. Still think EBH has shown more this year in regular sprints. Will be different if it's still together on the velodrome ofcourseBye Bye Bicycle said:Cance > TheRest said:It will be interesting to see how much EBH has left for a sprint in a race this long and tough.

1) selfless career domestique having great races and getting time to shine unexpectedly
2) complete underdog, usually Movistar in these races are just making numbers up with an odds-and-sods lineup since the big guns are usually at País Vasco.
EBH was just on the front, twice.Vroome.exe said:Lol! He never took a pull, hope you're joking...The Barb said:Vroome.exe said:Ebh wheelsucker not a single pull... Hope he doesnt win

He's been the rider of the race so far for me. Done loads of work at the front and still going strong, despite the crash and twice having to chase back on.TMP402 said:lemon cheese cake said:A trek rider tried (and failed) get two Lotto Soudal bottles at KBK.

On a related note, was Rowe offering others his energy gel? If so, he's a one man good-cop/bad-cop. He shouts at people to work then gives them treats.
I don't mind as long as they try to break things up on the next two sectorssaganftw said:if this ends in a group sprint i will be seriously dissapointed
