Respect to Durbridge. Great ride.

 

[Moondance]

Ownage by Durbridge.

Wonder if this was a bigger margin of victory than Malori in Varese? Anyone know?

 

[Ney the Viking]

Looks like only adrenaline keeps Durbridge on his legs

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Dumoulin is collapsing. He is losing time to Novak and Christie in the split times. So he will probably go to 8 or 9th

 

[Ney the Viking]

On a circuit the wind doesn't play a massive difference.

The home stretch should be a lot more exposed to the wind than the out stretch, and at that part there is headwind. This was what a Danish rider said earlier at least. And the wind was apparently the lowest when Hepburn did his last homestretch. Take from that what you will. *shrug*

It wasn't. Durbridge won by 36 seconds I think. Malori by 50.

This is a great day to be a cycling fan AND a West Australian

 

[Tuarts]

Durbridge reached 456 watts

 

[Ferminal]

Durbridge reached 456 watts

That's what I thought he said

 

[diggercuz]

top ride by turbo durbo! class above, looked smooth the whole way round.

go aussies. absolutely loving this day... hepburn may not be loving it, but still third, with a fall, awesome in my eyes.

 

[El Pistolero]

Durbridge reached 456 watts

Average for the whole course?

I know Cancellara once did 565 watts average for 8km at a Tour prologue.

Don't forget the Dutchies! All riders (i.e. two) in the top-10.

And Hamelink truly collapsed, right Dekker_T?

 

[Mellow Velo]

456 watts.........................
..........maybe that was just for his post race celebrations?

Which Australian is going to win the juniors tomorrow.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Don't forget the Dutchies! All riders (i.e. two) in the top-10.

Faster than Hepburn and Vorobev at the first split and then finishing almost a minute behind.

Yeah I can't see that as a collapse

Its too hard to admit you are wrong this time, theyoungest??

 

[GroupDK]

impressive level the australien riders supply, and if hepburn havent falled, likely he would have taken silver, in regards to only 11 seconds difference..

But still teknik is a part of the game..

but 2 riders in top 3..looks good for the aussie in the future..

 

[theyoungest]

Faster than Hepburn and Vorobev at the first split and then finishing almost a minute behind.

Again, that's not what I call a collapse. Or you expected him to win this thing?

Probably disappointed about Limbo Dumoulin not beating him, I guess.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Again, that's not what I call a collapse. Or you expected him to win this thing?

No I didn't. That's why I said I expected him to collapse after being faster at the first split than medal candidates as Vorobev and Hepburn. He can't keep the pace of that level of guys.
And he did collapse.

What do you call a collapse than???? If losing a minute isn't...

 

[Tuarts]

Average for the whole course?

I know Cancellara once did 565 watts average for 8km at a Tour prologue.

I don't know how (watts) this works but from the way he said it may be he reached that at max power output or is it a cumulative total?

 

[Ferminal]

I don't know how (watts) this works but from the way he said it may be he reached that at max power output or is it a cumulative total?

It would be his average for the 43 minutes.

 

[woodie]

I don't know how (watts) this works but from the way he said it may be he reached that at max power output or is it a cumulative total?

I daresay he was talking about average, max would prob be more than 450

 

[pastronef]

Excellent time from Vorobev. Should medal or get very close with that.

LOL. Hepburn on a GE bike.

with "scott" hidden. nice bike

then he changed it for a white.. cervelo maybe?

 

[goggalor]

Did Durbridge change bikes mid-race?
