Cool, Lotto are out of the blocks quicker in 2011! But who'd a thunk it wouldn't be Greipel?

 

[ingsve]

Good old last km solo push.

 

[Grzdylu]

Greipel gonna be mad at Gilbert.

 

[sublimit]

Crazy isn't it? What will we do? What will he do now?

I just knew these pages were loading faster now all those bl00dy ghost-thingy-turning-left-then-right GIFs have ceased.

EDIT: Cool, Lotto are out of the blocks quicker in 2011! But who'd a thunk it wouldn't be Greipel?

Greiple will end up working for Gilbert now instead of Adam Blythe in the big races.

You're right, my PC is operating quicker now also.

 

[Jamsque]

Gilbert picking up right where he left off last season.

[joy118118]

it seems Michael Matthews, John Degenkolb and Wouter Pouels all in good shapes

 

[Faserr]

Gilbert seems to be in great shape. Good for the classics .

I'm surprised about Ciolek. He didn't show great form at the previous races, but now I think he should be ready for the classics and MSR.
Well, that was a hard finish. Some GC riders in the top 15. So I think Greipel is ready for MSR, too. I want to see the video .

 

[c&cfan]

great win by an amazing cyclist. he is the best at this stuff..

after thinking again, even in this 1km atacks, the canc is so much better!! he does this at the tour!!

Is there a full results list somewhere or only a top 15?

 

[TeoSheva]

He got older

 

[euanli]

So much for Gilbert needing extra conditioning.

 

[Ryaguas]

Wow... Gilbert is the new Vino... or no the new Vino but He is even more good than Vino timing his attacks... uffff Gilbert is on fire...

Baden Cooke 6th ah!! What about that?? cool cool...
Farrar in great form tho also Matthews!
Rein Taraamae 12th? mmmmm maybe tried to follow Gilbert?
Bozic not even close?

With this victory Gilbert must be announcing that He wants the GC... I hope that Ciolek grabs some 1 or 2 victories here... He seriously need it...
