GCN, but as far as I'm aware it's on Danish telly as well.

It's just started on the GCN website, here is a link if anyone needs it;

[DNP-Old]

Ugly Sporza infographics.

 

[Tim Cahill]

If they get rid of the line that makes it look like your monitors broken and maybe make the print larger it would be decent.

GCN, but as far as I'm aware it's on Danish telly as well.

I just wanted to know if my country is the only one who chose to broadcast OHN delayed to show a freaking replay of Gran Camino.

 

[Samamba]

This race is being made really hard. Don't think we'll get a sprint.

They're closing in on the chasing group.

 

[Netserk]

QS in hard pursuit of the chase group. It's mostly Casper Pedersen in front.

 

[DNP-Old]

Mate, the evolution of Casper Pedersen is ridiculous.

 

[Samamba]

Peloton isn't even that big anymore

 

[Netserk]

The chase group has been caught as the break are on Valkenberg. Wolvelberg is with 53 km to go as the first significant climb of the finale on the road to Molenberg.

 

[Danskebjerge]

Mate, the evolution of Casper Pedersen is ridiculous.

Or: It's ridiculous that he hasn't had more success in recent years despite his results as a young rider.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Brandon Rivera, not that he hasn't been good in the mountains recently but what the *** is he doing here

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Or: It's ridiculous that he hasn't had more success in recent years despite his results as a young rider.

Yeah, the guy was a big espoir talent and then spent his early pro career on Aquablue and DSM, which were hardly ideal environments to show his capabilities

 

[Netserk]

Van Baarle now caught at the back of the peloton.

 

[Netserk]

Tratnik goes!

 

[Danskebjerge]

Good point. Or maybe it just reflects differences in the approach to drugs and stuff.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Why do Brits think a Dutch accent involves the sh-sound? Dutch doesn't have that, at least not very often.

Well... surely you should understand where it comes from, right? Dutch speakers may think they don't use that sound, but plenty of Dutch actually do. A simple word like "zeven" a lot of Dutch pronounce like "sheuwfeh". To people in Flanders, it sounds like Dutch are putting sh-sounds everywhere, lol.

 

[Netserk]

Kwiatkowski keeping things compact.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Bisseger tries to attack but sits up as everyone is marking each other at this point.

 

[Samamba]

Thats race done for De Lie

 

[Netserk]

De Lie crashed and dropped his chain. Now with a mechanical.

 

[Salvarani]

De Lie in trouble.

Bike change needed as well probably.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Thats race done for De Lie

How many times have people said that this season?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Where are Lotto's horses, Campanaerts was harping on a lot before the race but their best rider is 30s back and nobody has dropped to help him.
