ACF- where are you getting the images from?

Break has won 3 of the past 4 years!

I would argue two out of the last four years in my opinion.

According to the Avanti Team twitter account, the gap is now down to 2.10 indicating the chase is on.

Tomalaris has a bit of a faux pas by mentioning Michael Rogers...lol

 

[greenedge]

Ligget says the winds are strong.

Durbridge and Docker gone?

Ligget says the winds are strong.

Durbridge and Docker gone?

A twitter update said that but I think it is wrong.

Tomalaris has a bit of a faux pas by mentioning Michael Rogers...lol

Nothing changes with that guy....unwatchable.

 

[greenedge]

Budget Forklifts on the front/ the tv is reporting the gap as 3:26

 

[Afrank]

Anyone know the guys left in the break? Did some drop off or not? Cycling Aus Road is reporting Clarke and Drapac pushing at the front of the break.

 

[Ferminal]

Break is still pretty much together.

 

[greenedge]

Will Walker is reported as dropped... along with Josh Taylor.

Ligget still thinks Walker rides for Drapac- Keenan just corrected him.

 

[auscyclefan94]

So Drapac are pacing the three GreenEdge riders around the circuit?

 

[greenedge]

Evans looking quite active

Lap 11 avg speed of 52.2 km/h

 

[auscyclefan94]

Liggett believing the graphic that says the lap 11 speed is 52.2km/h...lol. More like 41km/h, which is fast for this course.

 

[Ferminal]

Yeh, 52kmh isn't even possible I would have thought. Drapac should really slow down a bit given they are about to lose Phelan.

 

[Captain Serious]

Liggett believing the graphic that says the lap 11 speed is 52.2km/h...lol. More like 41km/h, which is fast for this course.

Dodgy graphic aside, him and Sherwin also whack an extra 5km/h or more to all speeds.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Rohan Dennis far back on the climb...looks to be hurting.

 

[Ferminal]

trolololol another 52kmh lap!

 

[zlev11]

anyone have a stream that's not restricted?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Goss struggling in the pack

 

[auscyclefan94]

anyone have a stream that's not restricted?

Nah, it is only televised through SBS which is a geo-restricted stream.
