Bouhanni been dropped?

 

[Campervan man]

I'm pretty sure if Viessmann sponsored cycling we'd see a lot more of it on Eurosport. Come on I want pictures! Cycling fans are hard done to we miss all the early action. Same in multiple mountain stages. Is there any sense behind Sagan and his attacks?

I don't think it's been a sincere attack.
More like stretching the legs.

He's in the mood, certainly.

Interesting if he can't shift Ewan he won't out sprint him on a flat surely, unless Ewan is spent by then. Ah pictures.

Orica taking really good care of Ewan.
We'll see when it starts twisting and turning on the circuit. Bike handling he has, but the experience after a hard day could be a factor.

Re:

Then don't watch it. I'll settle for tuning in for the last 5km.

Actually, it seems to be watchable today as Sagan decided to have some fun and blown the pack apart.

Hats off to Lotto for the showing in this opening weekend.

 

[PremierAndrew]

Could someone pls post the important kms in the no spoilers thread after the race?

 

[TommyPlus]

Riding on the footpath is brutal for television viewers

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Echelons ?

 

[sir fly]

Fantastic racing this weekend!

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Race action looks superior....

Echelons.

 

[Flamin]

Just tuned it, but I see I missed something?

Re:

Lotto has split the pack on the wide road approaching Tiegemberg.
Don't know who's left behind.
Some big names possibly.

 

[Flamin]

Thanks. Lotto boys really on fire this weekend then.

They were wonderful last year.

 

[Gigs_98]

Although this looks interesting right now I fear it will all come together and anything that happens now wont have any impact on the final result

Too much cautious for my taste.
They have really capable squad.

Etixx, Orica... Who else survived the speed bumb.
No Katusha?

Fairly large, again.

 

[carolina]

kristoff and sagan are in the group, but probably don't have enought teammates to help.

Kristoff has a huge problem for Sanremo and de Ronde without Paolini. Katusha sucks hard.

He just needs to follow EBH wheel and he'll make it through

I'm not sure how high he'll rate MSR this season.
Expecting to get in shape during the Paris - Nice could be late for MSR, early for the cobbles.
