2017 Amgen Tour of California, May 14-20, WT

[woodburn]

Strong effort by Boswell to get back on to leading three.

 

[WheelofGear]

Of course.

 

[killswitch]

LOL

edit: Talansky finally chases

Re: Re:

Majka is the Gerrans of the climbers. Just following wheels.

Always. You'd expect him to attack here with the lesser competition.

For once he actually did

 

[jaylew]

Talansky definitely seems strongest but has he done too much?

Dunno why he was looking at Boswell to chase. He's clearly the weakest of the four.

 

[HelloDolly]

Bennet has this

 

[woodburn]

Majka just playing with them and going to win stage.

 

[WheelofGear]

Majka has always been great at attacking.

But he never works.

Re:

Unless Majka and Talansky are both cooked (which is possible) his chances are around zero in a sprint

 

[jaylew]

This part is really steep

 

[woodburn]

Hope Boswell wins this.

 

[woodburn]

Surprising sprint by Talansky. Cannondale has its WT win!

 

[carolina]

Cannondale finally gets a WT win.

 

[sir fly]

Finally Cannondale.
Congrats, Andrew.

 

[jaylew]

Cannondale gets its WT win!

 

[WheelofGear]

Well-deserved.

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

Does it count as a proper world tour win? I mean its California.

 

[staubsauger]

Courageous ride by Boswell!

 

[SlickMongoose]

Good ride from Talansky.

A lot of respect for Boswell, he really fought hard.

 

[BigMac]

Lol.

How does this team survive.

Good sprint, tricky finale.

 

[RedheadDane]

WT win for Cannondale.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Majka was probably the strongest, but Talansky rode a great sprint taking the right curves. How big was the gap between Talansky/Majka and Bennett?

He has a good kick for a climber

That's Talansky in a nutshell, a good diesel climber with a decent sprint and good TT skills.
