Driedaagse De Panne-Koksijde 2.HC 26th-28th March 2013

[Dazed and Confused]

Heads off to team Katusha, that is a nice set of young riders they have.

Wonder how far Vorobyev can go TT wise.

Next test is a 6 km prologue in Circuit Cycliste Sarthe I believe.

Sure, ignore Chavanel attacking on the Kwaremont at 80km to go, if it makes you feel better.*

Lol, in 2008 and 2009 that was barely a chase. More a procession of favourites marked by Tommeke.

Attacking on the Kwaremont and riding ahead for 30k when nobody is chasing after you is really hard idd

Do you really saw Ronde 2008? Devolder was super strong in that year. Stronger than Chava now

Devolder was practically gifted 30s when he attacked before the Eikenberg as everyone was looking at Boonen soft-tapping. Then Tom did a brilliant job of marking the moves after the Muur and Bosberg. There was no concerted chase from the moment Devolder attacked as the break was brought back before the Eikenberg.

2009 was softer still.

 

[Netserk]

Two Ronde victories that Boonen should have had
