2014 - 98th Ronde van Vlaanderen, 259km, Sunday 6th April (1.UWT)

[More Strides than Rides]

Belkin and Cannondale get away. Its all on Cancellara Factory Racing now

 

[The Hitch]

Devolder again.

 

[Afrank]

Another F***ing crash!

Devolder out, couple BMC's involved, couple more Saxo's.

 

[thrawn]

Massive crash. 2 BMC and Devolder continues his day of crashes. Lots of Saxo down too.

 

[roundabout]

Gee, did not see that one coming

 

[TommyPlus]

My word this is mental

 

[UselessToo]

Devolder hits the deck again

 

[BigMac]

Luls Devolder hits the deck yet again. No way he'll get back on the bike.

 

[Parrulo]

Devolder down again?

 

[Miburo]

They lost Rast and Popovych and Devolder is back to being Devolder so they might lose him in the next crash.

Genius.

10 char

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Yeeeaaahhh Phinney!

 

[luckyboy]

Devolder jeez

 

[Afrank]

But on the bright side, Phinney killing people on the Paterberg.

 

[Orbit501]

Honestly, Roelandts had close to zero chance of winning as well.

Not saying he was a favourite as such, but 3rd last year and in reasonable form. Lottery of a race so he had as good a chance as any of the second tier riders of winning. I'd have rated his chances higher than close to zero.

 

[TommyPlus]

Cancellara having a look around at the top.

 

[Miburo]

Devolder is really a ***. Don't know how to explain this otherwise.

 

[BigMac]

Degenkolb looking good as well. Real gaps starting to appear.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Devolder is really a ***. Don't know how to explain this otherwise.

I thought it was common knowledge that he is, but what did he do this time?

 

[Arredondo]

Modolo and Demare are done

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Demare really far

 

[Afrank]

Devolder up and riding. Impressive.

 

[TommyPlus]

Devolder doing his jersey proud

Might even say, a Lotto of a race

 

[Miburo]

I thought it was common knowledge that he is, but what did he do this time?

Back at the peloton the whole time in the RVV knowing the race is jinxed with crashes.

 

[Christian]

OMG Devolder what a beast!!!
