Wth is Wellens trying to do. A solo of 70k when the bunch is only 38" back?

 

[HelloDolly]

Matti Goss became a play boy after his big win

 

[HelloDolly]

What is it with Wellens and the long range attacks

 

[phil-i-am]

Riders all over the road with 60 kms to go. Wellens is crazy. Shame Kwia crashed.

That's his magic even though it seems pointless sometimes

Re:

But you'd expect him to have sobered up at some point. Like when his pay cheques started shrinking with each new contract.

 

[Samamba]

Wellens, Bettiol & Cieslik in front now.

You understand what happened? They mention his name every minute but my Polish language skills are not so good. :razz:

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Looks like a good race today! Go Wellens!

 

[HelloDolly]

Yes comms are obsessed with Kwait ...

They talk about crash on Ząb descent. Kwia crashed and Golas stopped to help him. It's pure chaos though. Nobody knows how hard he hit the deck but he is said to be at least minute or two down the 'bunch'.

 

[El Pistolero]

Wellens has 2 minutes and 50 seconds at the peloton? Wow.

 

[Samamba]

Total carnage.

 

[HelloDolly]

Vert tough conditions

 

[HelloDolly]

Wellens of by himself again

 

[Arked]

It looks like everyone pedaling backwards.

And of course Wellens attacks with 45km to go. He can win race today because no one seems to chase.

He was already in the break with 140km to go or something like that

 

[Samamba]

It's Wellens vs. BMC probably.

 

[HelloDolly]

Yes ...they all look pretty fed up....not just cause many of them are not in France but they have to ride a race in these conditions that no one is watching

 

[Arked]

Yeah. Wellens is attacking from breakaway which attacked previous breakaway and so on. He is meta.

I'm watching and enjoying it a lot more than Tour de Bore.

 

[HelloDolly]

I am watchimg too ...but not many of the general public are

 

[liamito]

Tim is killing it. De Marchi won't take him back.
