2014 Liege-Bastogne-Liege, 1.UWT (262 Km's)

[burning]

Gerrans is such a great rider, always tactically smart. Now he has won MSR and LBL.

Smart = Doing nothing until last 200m and pray that you get to sprint for first place?

 

[Richeypen]

What a letdown as a race, they should add a dozen races on cobbles....

If I had my way the season would never leave the cobbles

 

[Fzotrlool]

Dani Moreno

AGR: 9
LW: 9
LBL: 9

They don't even have to win another race.

They don't even have to get their team bus stuck under the finish line.

 

[willbick]

will make for a good episode of 'Backstage Pass'

Gerrans is a lucky guy to have 2 monuments: 1) Cancellara gifts it to him when he still wanted to be the Spartacus instead of riding smart. 2) Kreuz pulls a huge group no one know why and Martin is lucky enough to pull a Menchov on the last bend of a Monument when he had it in the bag.

 

[Arredondo]

Moreno 9th in Amstel. Fleche and Liege.

Well, i'm glad Gerrans won. Again horrible wheelsucking and tactics by Valverde.

 

[goggalor]

gutted for Martin, horrible luck

luck? lol

Congrats Greenedge...

That moment when Simon Gerrans wins 2 different monuments without ever showing his face before the final 200 meters. . . ~

Worst LBL i have ever watched, even worse than last year

Well at least he had to follow an attack on the Poggio for his MSR win. Here he just sat in the group all day and won the sprint.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Aug 2011 to Jul 2013 already makes 2 years

he said that in 2013, so in 2015 is 2 years

 

[BigMac]

I think Gerrans might win Romandie.

 

[spanky wanderlust]

That was the best edition of Milan San Remo yet!

When that's your only chance then yes. Gerrans consistently overachieved his talent.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Moreno 9th in Amstel. Fleche and Liege.

Well, i'm glad Gerrans won. Again horrible wheelsucking and tactics by Valverde.

As opposed to Gerrans' amazing race-animating tactics? Come on, both as bad as each other.

 

[hrotha]

Well this was a turd.

 

[Bala Verde]

1. Gerrans, 2. Valverde, 3. Kwiatkowski, 4. Caruso, 5. Pozzovivo, 6. Slagter, 7. Kreuziger, 8. Gilbert, 9. Moreno, 10. Bardet

 

[skidmark]

Well, at least it wasn't Levi Leipheimer.

New punchline to the 'Why did Andy Schleck abandon?' joke:

- because this race ****ing sucked.

 

[Cult Classics]

I look forward to CN drooling over this Gerrans 'deserved' win. Deserved as he is Australian, obviously. Very disappointing race and a winner who did nothing until the sprint. Worst LBL for a long time and Gerrans now has 2 monuments by basically just wheel sucking.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Gerrans makes Valverde look like Vino

 

[Jelantik]

come on guys. all the big guys who so called also gc contender should make it harder for Gerrans in the last two climbs. But they didn't, either don't have the leg or dunno. So Gerrans outwitted everyone, unfortunately. I have to congratulate the guy. He hung there, and still have the energy to out sprint everyone.

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

I think Gerrans might win Romandie.

I no one attacks, yes.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Kwiatkowski 3rd, yet again.

 

[jaylew]

Valverde's effort to shut down Caruso after Phil dropped cost him the race. Didn't distance Gerro and Kwia.

 

[BigMac]

Moreno 9th in Amstel. Fleche and Liege.

Well, i'm glad Gerrans won. Again horrible wheelsucking and tactics by Valverde.

More like horrible tatctics from all contenders who didn't win? Why jump on Valverde where clearly everyone but Kreuziger wheelsucked.
