Re: Re:

Ok, break won.

I'd be surprised if the break survives

Not gonna make it

 

[TommyGun]

Perhaps a French double!

 

[sir fly]

Epic pursuit.

 

[Ruby United]

The break need 20 seconds for the last k at least. They are looking at each other; the pack will catch them

 

[LosBrolin]

Thrilling finale!

 

[sir fly]

Heartbreaking stuff.

 

[Red Rick]

Lol, if it aint Dutch, it aint much

 

[Ruby United]

Van poppel!!!?

 

[Irondan]

[Ruby United]

Re:

And i was wrong...(like always ).
Nicely done by van Poppel.

 

[BigMac]

Danny aye.

Enjoyed the sprint, poor Degz, hard to win without a mates, getting boxed in. Free for all. Lotto Jumbo fail train.

 

[Carols]

Nice win for Van Poppel, especially after puncture!

This is not Degenkolb's Vuelta.

 

[cellardoor]

Oh Franck....I don't think it's past the watershed in the UK.

 

[Son of Amsterhammer]

The dutch are getting greedy!!

 

[Flamin]

My goodness, John.. how?

Thrilling finale this was. Oh, and the Dutch owning the Vuelta.

That was a great sprint and as a Trek fan I am also happy with the result

Not really. The Lotto train was perfect. Van Asbroeck was sprinting backwards again. They just don't have a finisher who's good enough.

Van Poppel.. that was class, especially after puncturing. I don't know what's gotten into the Dutch riders all of a sudden. I expected nothing of this Vuelta and now there's 3 stagewins and Dumoulin still battling for the podium

Talking of Dutch sprinters, why does Terpstra suddenly think he is one?

He won the Dutch champs in a mass sprint..

Great lead-out by van winden, but van asbroeck fails again.

That's what I meant. It's a fail train if i doesn't reach the destination.

I know. Yet he also couldn't beat Ian Stannard in a sprint. Sure he can win one once in a while (and the Dutch RR was a shameful day for the sprinters in the winning move with him), but to think he was better than all the sprinters there is getting a little optimistic.
