That made me lol too. Dirk Hofman is getting old I guess, it's time for a tombstone dealer to step into cycling.

She attacked a total of 3 times, including one that was 40 km from the finish. As you said she needed to be smarter, but her last attacks were good (she just needs to ride with Porte more often )Galic Ho said:Ratto was very good. Solid and strong.
Don't know if the Americans tactics were smart. Maybe they should have played it out slowly and hit everyone hard in the final laps. Was a good race to watch though.
Nice podium and well deserved. Someone needs to talk to Tiffany Cromwell about attacking before the halfway mark up a 4km climb when outnumbered by 3 Italians and 2 Dutch women. Not the smartest thing I've seen. However she rode very well given 2 laps in the Aussie team were down to 3 riders.
