Dutchies doing well in Vlaanderen today. Why not. Wel done to those guys.
Weird race.

Yeay QST 1-2

 

[hrotha]

Oh hey, an OPQS 1-2. I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you.

 

[therhodeo]

I'm not sure that Chav had to try too hard for that.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

I hope not. De Kort deserves that 2nd place with all his relentless attacks in the final kilometers

I was rooting for Chavenel until those last 5 meters when he put is arms up for second place. He rode smart, but come on...

Obviously not.

Put his arms up because his team owned everyone there. It wasn't just his 2nd he was celebrating.

this looked like a sunday ride with the wife and the kids for him

They know this is the chance. I mean in E3/GW/RVV it will be hard for a dutchie to do well. Maybe Langeveld or Boom. Or the amazing De Kort

Fair enough.

Quickstep vs. the world (vs. Cancellara) this coming weekend?

Pippo quietly building up come the start of April

I'll burn a candle for you guys. Maybe a Knaven scenario in Roubaix.

Terpstra is awesome, his attack proved to be even more devastating than i thought QST have owned the race. It's a pity than De Kort finished only third but Sylvain was strong. I think Vanmarcke was also strong enough to compete for podium with these two, but as i saw he was asking a help from his teamcar at the moment when De Kort (and Chavanel on his wheel) went to attack...

I liked Cav leading out Renshaw in the bunch sprint, BTW. What was that all about?

 

[El Pistolero]

OPQS domination.

He was leading out Sutton. Don't you know Cav always likes to help his team mates? He did AMAZING today. Lol.

he apparently got sunk by a Katusha torpedo

200km on Belgiums worst roads. All ok. 15km from finish, peloton's riding easy & a *** throws a bottle in my front wheel. Crashed hard.

Said it before: EVERYONE involved in a bike race should take a written & practical test to get licence. Bottle that crashed me was #Katusha.

 

[theyoungest]

Yeah, like Cav has never caused a crash himself...

 

[Richeypen]

WTF. How did another thread turn into a Cav thread?

It's fun to bash that fat guy

What a ***. Like it was done on purpose.

He drove Vanmarcke nuts. Seems his only game plan was to sit on his wheel, nobody else's, and out sprint him for whatever spot they were contesting.
Given the fact that Sep looked super strong, it might have been an idea to cooperate in the chase.
Then again, this is Pozatto, I'm talking about.

He never did, all the bad sprinters that weren't even supposed to be there and got into his way always did it.
