Yes, disappointing behaviour by a few 'fans' today,Pricey_sky said:Cavendish saying he hit a camera with a couple of laps to go on the shoulder and it feels bad so needs to go and get it checked out. Hope it's just a bit of bruising and nothing more.
If it's moved up to at least 1.1 status then it should be held in the along with the Rutland Melton Classic (also would be moved up to at least 1.1 status) and put on the same weekend. It would be a bit like the the Omloop and KBK.TMP402 said:Pricey_sky said:TMP402 said:Another question: the Lincoln GP, whose course this race used, is some amateur race. Why isn't someone willing to step it up to 1.1? Good course for exciting racing, and the crowds exist to make it a special attraction for riders.
Should use the Lincoln race instead of that boring London-Surrey race

If I were Laengen, I'd just sit in Nordhaug's wheel. That guy is almost as fast as EBH who is using energy trying to catch the break.goggalor said:Nordhaug and Laengen lead over the final climb on an epic course in Norway. EBH and Bystrøm in a group about 1 minute behind. 20 km to go.

it looks like he's paid them off to ride for himVelolover2 said:Why the hell aren't the blue guys trying to attack Nordhaug? At least sit on his wheel. The chasing group is not gonna catch them. Sorry, but they are riding really dumb.
