Yup!
Too bad Teunissen didn't manage to snatch a win somewhere.

Re:

Kittel wasn't even supposed to ride there

Yeah i was suprised to see him riding.
He needs rest for sure.
Matthews is smarter.

And Demare... mental problem maybe? He can't be tired from his short performance @ le Tour? But always been a strange guy.

 

[WheelofGear]

This stage isn't really that hard compared to Amstel Gold Race. It's lumpy, not hilly.

Most sprinters except Kittel should be able to survive. It's great for Theuns, Van Poppel, Cort and Sagan of course.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I biked a lot in the region of the finish area. The hills are not hard for a pro peloton. Even sprinters should be able to survive easily.

 

[Der Effe]

Yup, the Amstel stage always sucks.

Oh, this guy :lol:

And why not?
He had two top 5 finishes in the TdF last year before crashing out.
He spent this entire time with iron pins in his back and just only recently got them removed.
I think he could level with them

But then again, you also believe in Sinterklaas.

There's a difference between believing and enjoying your ancestors traditions as they're supposed to

Thick as a brick.

Re:

caused by a roadblock, Naesan had his wheel stuck in the bike of Wagner.

 

[saganist]

did Sunweb stop pushing for fair play?

 

[Oliver]

Group with Kung & Boom back with peleton.

 

[WheelofGear]

Some of these roads are as narrow as bike paths. Great for the racing.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Sagan ................

 

[Ikbengodniet]

Nice elite group

 

[SKSemtex]

Strange racing from first group :sad:

 

[jaylew]

Sagan doing too much as usual

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Sep!

 

[Ikbengodniet]

Boom finally put in some training hours this summer.

 

[jaylew]

Perfect timing from Boom. Right after Sagan brought back Sep.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Nice win by Boom! He looked very strong throughout the finale imo. The Ardennes stage will be difficult for him as always, though.

 

[burning]

"Boom, originally a track cyclist"

Kirby being full *** as usual, but nice win by Boom, did not expect that to happen at all
