Van Dijk won't make it.

If she rode in the dry she would have....
Crap weather

Lucky Canadians...damn

 

[Vitapen]

Oh! It was so close!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

dammit, so close

 

[Publicus]

That was close

 

[Moondance]

Shucks Ellen, two secs off. Good job!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Marianne Vos loses 10 seconds in the first part. 7 seconds behind Hughes. Probably not good enough...

 

[Moondance]

Meh. Vos isn't gonna do it.

Please let Ellen medal then.

 

[Mellow Velo]

More Dutch mafia blues.
Obviously not getting enough rain these days over there these days.
Dross from Vos.

Pooley off, Canucks looking good for the win still. (Canada)

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Meh. Vos isn't gonna do it.

Please let Ellen medal then.

Indeed. But probably not going to happen

4th place finisher in the mens junior race Markus Fåglum-Karlsson is a rider will very good cycling pedigree. He is the grandson of Sture Pettersson of the 4 Pettersson brothers who won 3 World Championships and an olympic silver in the Team Time Trial between 1967-69. His granduncle Gösta Pettersson won Giro d'Italia in 1971.

His father Jan Karlsson was also a pro with Acceptcard in 1998-1999 and is also a former medalwinner in the olympic Team Time Trial (Bronze 1988).

Interesting info! Thanks!

 

[Moondance]

Johansson disappointing.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Amber Neben looking great

 

[Moondance]

Tara Witten doing good also. Good that van Dijk has already sabotaged an all-Canadian podium. That wouldn't be good for the sport.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Vilumsen going pretty good.

 

[Vitapen]

Villumsen looks really great.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

pooley ok.. she can still win i think.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Vos isn't going to do anything here

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

its ok vos, a silver medal awaits on saturday

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

its ok vos, a silver medal awaits on saturday

Haha...please don't tell her!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Vos isn't going to do anything here

to be honest I really didn't expect much from her today.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

to be honest I really didn't expect much from her today.

I kinda expected a top 5, maybe bronze medal... Judging by her ITT's this year...that was not unreasonable to expect

 

[sublimit]

Vos will walk the RR. but doesn't look a natural tester in this one.

 

[Ferminal]

Villumsen now fastest.

 

[Der Effe]

Glad Hughes won't be winning. Can't stand it when someone wins just because of plain luck.
