52nd Brabantse Pijl 196km

[shalgo]

Doesn't he waste a lot of energy moving his tongue like that?

 

[dlwssonic]

Defensive riding, saving energy for AGR?

 

[TomasC]

I wonder who'll be the first to attach an ad sticker to Voeckler's tongue. Lots of airtime!

 

[c&cfan]

lol.. putting a camera ahead of TV has the same effect as a carrot ahead of a horse.

it looks fairly aerodynamic!

Vanendert is just using this race to mark his credentials for the ardennes triple next week

 

[Machu Picchu]

the common musk turtle can store oxygen in it's tongue? Go Tommy Turtle!

 

[screaming fist]

I rather see Voeckler's tongue than what he does to his bike

 

[Spine Concept]

Peak form and have a bad day. Is that possible? I'm talking about Meersman. Poor guy.

 

[dlwssonic]

we have to watch the race for second again.

Duarte !

 

[goggalor]

Duarte away!

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Duarte goes!

 

[jsem94]

Duarte showing how it's done.

 

[c&cfan]

Duarte goes!

too late. useless.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

I'm digging that Europcar Colnago C59.

 

[Spine Concept]

Wow Duarte. Impressive riding.

 

[shalgo]

too late. useless.

Well, at least he is riding for second, rather than for third behind Freire, which is what the rest of them seem to be doing. And, of course, he had to bridge up to the chase group before attacking them.

Duarte taking no sh!t no more!!! YYYEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Hoiluy **** duarte!!!!

 

[hrotha]

too late. useless.

It's not useless. If he can take 2nd from the bunch of chasers who did nothing at all, cycling wins.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

looks like the rain stops - so ...

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

After Tommy left the group, a Cat 3 race broke out.

you are totally right.

 

[roundabout]

So, Voeckler in 4x4 mode. Chasers that weren't chasing. BMC and Rabobank who have exploded the race where their riders did not follow up to benefit from the work.

It was fun at first and then boring for the last 2 laps
