Go Jurgen, let the rest be negative and you can ride away with it

I don't understand why is Sagan constantly at the front of the peloton.... Leukemans

Probably wants to win...

Re: Re:

The way Sagan got passed on the cobbles was no good sign btw

That's just bluff

Roberto Amadio said last weekend he doesn't think Sagan can win Roubaix. Says his handling skills come from his high position but the tradeoff is it makes him bounce too much on the cobbles, wasting lots of energy and power. And changing the position makes him lose power due to long legs and lack of lower back flexibility.

Nobody to help him.

He is in the group of favourites, he doesn't need a teammate to help

Come on Jürgen, the man became a king in Gent-Wevelgem. THAT's how you attack unsuccessfully in glory. Today less glorious, but if he wins he becomes an Emperor.

Re:

Roelandts solo

Wd be magnificent after GW. Anyone but Deg.

 

[DirtyWorks]

Does anyone know if the run into the velodrome will be a tailwind?

 

[manafana]

this is getting interesting now, bit of gap has opened up with 3 men out front giving it there all

 

[webvan]

Gap opening up, looks like they're waiting for Sky to do the work, as usual...

 

[lemon cheese cake]

They are onto the Carrefoour DeL'Arbre

 

[Gloin22]

Rowe with some massive progress this year. Turning into a flat beast.

 

[trevim]

Degenkolb, now that's the only way I like a sprinter winning Roubaix!

 

[thrawn]

Looks like they're all riding for a sprint...

This. I really hate the way Deg rides in these races (not saying it's not smart for him).

 

[the sceptic]

Kristoff's got this

 

[webvan]

This has Degenkolb's name all over it.

 

[thequestionmark]

Degenkolb really strong.

 

[Rollthedice]

Degenkolb looks like a clear favorite now.

 

[Amsterhammer]

I love how excited the Belgian commentators suddenly got when Roelandts hit the front.

I'm hoping for Boom or Degenkolb.

 

[Miburo]

Holy ***, never seen this many riders at this point in the race

 

[goggalor]

Bozic having a great ride. Degenkolb looks like the strongest rider, but he won't attack.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

What a boring race by the favorits

Roelandts actually deserves the win

 

[Tigerion]

Who is the OGE rider, need a non-favourite to support

 

[thrawn]

Degenkolb looks the strongest. Not sure if he'll beat Kristoff in a sprint though.

 

[Rollthedice]

30 guys on the velodrome could be fun.
