E3 Harelbeke, 28 March, 2014 (1.WT)

[Arredondo]

Not in first two groups

Thx, last time i saw him when Cancellara joined him from the background

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Sagan vs 3 non sprinters. Although Thomas might be kind of fast

 

[Rollthedice]

Where's Alejandro?

He lost the Canc TGV.

 

[Afrank]

Stybar mechanical.

 

[Avoriaz]

Sagan vs 3 non sprinters. Although Thomas might be kind of fast

Thomas is fast but has surely done too much work

 

[burning]

Canc must attack on that cobbled section to have any hope

Edit: Nobody is riding on cobbles though

A miscarriage is an involuntary abortion, no?

Well, in strictest terms, an abortion is an artificially induced miscarriage. But that ignores the emotional impact of losing a child who you've seen and even felt growing in your partners abdomen. And if someone can't see how that would be emotionally shattering for a parent, mother or father, then all I can say is I'm glad they are lucky enough not to have had to experience that for themselves. My parents miscarried a couple of years after they had me, it's pretty grim. Wouldn't wish it on anybody. It's going to have a psychological impact upon Boonen.

 

[Don't be late Pedro]

Sagan vs 3 non sprinters. Although Thomas might be kind of fast

Has been used as a final lead out man so probably got a turn of speed but nothing like Sagan I am guessing. But then again, Sagan might feel the affects to a lot of racing so who know.

 

[Afrank]

Stop trying to avoid the cobbles!

 

[Pricey_sky]

Thomas is fast but has surely done too much work

I would say so although he is now being sensible and staying on Sagans wheel.

 

[Parrulo]

Wow that is appalling! You obviously have never had the misfortune of being in that position.

I wonder how will the OPQS's play this.

Like they are riding now they will finish 3rd and 4th

 

[Netserk]

What's the point of having cobbled sections if they don't ride on them

 

[trevim]

Cancellara and Devolder should stop working. Canc has won this already; Lotto, Astana, Katusha, Europcar don't even take a pull at the front. F*** them

 

[Rollthedice]

Now it's only Sagan's to loose.

 

[infeXio]

They won't catch them

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Stybar returned!

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Sagan vs 3 non sprinters. Although Thomas might be kind of fast

He's fast, but not explosive.

 

[SafeBet]

Devolder is almost cooked.

 

[Bookbuild]

Thomas won't win Sagan or Delgenkolb, if the chase group joins them, Sky still has EBH that can challenge Sagan or Delgenkolb.

 

[TourOfTexas]

Canc has a look on his face like "f this sht!"

 

[trevim]

Stybar returned!

Oh well they're bleeding time to the front group anyway...

 

[HoinkDoink]

Sagan must win this

 

[manafana]

As cruel as it may sound, his wife had an abortion, not him.

He lost a few days of training but even if he lost a full week, it is not reason for being this bad.

thats very low of you, i suggest you correct that post, you can't even begin to understand how something like that should have affected him

 

[woodburn]

Cancellara and Devolder should stop working. Canc has won this already; Lotto, Astana, Katusha, Europcar don't even take a pull at the front. F*** them

Really disappointing lack of work. Can't win if you don't make the front group.

 

[The Blues]

Meh. I really dislike this situation...

Also, I understand why they're not helping Cance, but they won't gain anything either. Surely they must have realized now that it is game over if they do not help immediately.
