2011 Copenhagen World Championships: Elite Men Road Race

[Havetts]

Birdsong attacks!!


Nvm - Anders Lund

 

[Rudisha]

Aussies and the Belgium rides are going to smash GB

And the French, don't forget the French.

 

[The Cube]

Broken transponders from the start were Thomas, Knees and Chris Anker Sorensen. So they don't appear on the TV screen, or in any of the intermediate splits, but someone is slotting them into the positions at the end of each lap.

 

[spalco]

Yes, he's in the bunch. But where is Cancellara?

I'm 99% sure he's there too.

 

[AussieGoddess]

Yes, he's in the bunch. But where is Cancellara?

yeah Cance is in the pack

 

[toestrap]

GB are going to blow apart.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Goss at his best beats Cav on this finish regardless of how hard it is.

are you saying Goss is faster than Cav?

So far it doesn't look like they have managed to bother GB in the slightest as far as I can see.

the effects of the attacks won't be evident right now although GB could firstly be very tired going into the finale after doing all the chasing. they may not be dropped but the pace may become too muc for them that their leadout train will be weak.

 

[Havetts]

Ducrot is ****ed off that there are no Dutch in this new break..

 

[spalco]

The Hushovd group hasn't managed to gain any ground whatsoever so far.

 

[just some guy]

And the French, don't forget the French.

I would like WC Offredo

 

[Ferminal]

are you saying Goss is faster than Cav?

I'm saying that if you ran peak Cav and Goss on this finish a million times, Goss would win more than 50% of them

 

[Rudisha]

The Hushovd group hasn't managed to gain any ground whatsoever so far.

They are slowly coming back to the end + cars of the bunch.

 

[issoisso]

Kritskiy is in the race. Good to see him back riding. Even if he'll never be the superstar he likely would've been without the injury.

 

[Havetts]

Belgians woo! This is why I love our southern neighbours!

 

[just some guy]

Where is GVA afc ?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Where is GVA afc ?

caught up in the crash, hes in the thor group

 

[Rudisha]

Where is GVA afc ?

In the Hushovd peloton.

 

[AussieGoddess]

Where is GVA afc ?

GVA in 2nd group ... but has no transponder so not getting times

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

Where is GVA afc ?

Group Hushovd

 

[spalco]

Where is GVA afc ?

Didn't he crash out earlier? I think someone mentioned that but I may be wrong.

 

[just some guy]

caught up in the crash, hes in the thor group

In the Hushovd peloton.

Thanks thought he would be the next Belgium card really smash it apart

 

[sublimit]

Chris Froome retires having done a fantastic ride. well done sir.

 

[Havetts]

6 or 7 englishmen remaining. Slowly thinning out!

 

[auscyclefan94]

he's still in the race as I saw him last lap but he's ultimately out of the race.
