95th Ronde van Vlaanderen - April 3 2011

[Ferminal]

The Goose trying to get a move on... He looks solid.

Sorry for my fanboyism, but acf isn't here so...

 

[The Hitch]

Pozzato looking back to find where Gilbert is so he can suck his wheel.

 

[Jamsque]

It would be a bit of an anti-climax if Chav ends up winning this and the favourites never actually fight it out.

Super G on the attack! Sky now have three men up the road.

 

[The Hitch]

Gilbert puncture

 

[Anonymous]

Chavanel thinks he's Cancellara

Hopefully, he is today. They are letting him stretch it out. GO CHAVANEL!!

 

[thrawn]

Gilbert trying out the Cancellara tactic.

 

[superconfex]

I think we must be watching a different race. He looks like he is on a stroll right now. No problem for him right now.

Looked like he was blowing at the top of that last hill

 

[Jamsque]

Magic Spanner for Phil!

 

[rghysens]

cobbled section off the Haaghoek next...

 

[Granville57]

I can't say I was encouraged after watching the Cervelo documentary footage of their Milan-San Remo pre-race meeting.

Jeezus, the team bus was saturated with indecision and uncertainty. I hope they had a better mind-set at the start of today.

 

[luckyboy]

He'll get back ok.

Feels weird seeing a Merc drive past.

 

[Sparta]

leopard have had a mare

 

[Polyarmour]

It would be a bit of an anti-climax if Chav ends up winning this and the favourites never actually fight it out.

I think it would be awesome

 

[Jamsque]

Garmin have no-one up the road and no-one chasing. Great job guys! Keep marking Spartacus!

[edit]Whoops, I think Thor heard me!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Boom and EBH already at 30 seconds.... talk about getting owned

 

[craig1985]

Go Chavanel.

 

[The Hitch]

Boonen.!!!!

 

[Moondance]

Hushovd.... Thanks for doing something

 

[Tom T.]

QS has done what they have to do. The onus is squarely on Cance to close down the gap to Chav. Boonen just has to sit on his wheel, I know easier said than done, while Cance burns all his matches.

 

[Lyds97]

Thor driving the group. QS look so much more with it this year.

 

[Granville57]

Thor!!!!!!!!!

 

[superconfex]

Tommy B goes

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Boonen, Cance and Pozzato now!

 

[Jamsque]

Boonen, Spartacus, Pozzato!

 

[ak-zaaf]

Well, there we have it.
