So... do people who voted both "a Dane" and "a Wolf" get double bragging rights?

This makes it sound like van der Poel did something amazing. But Van Aert got dropped by the entire front group, not just van der Poel.

True, but Mathieu was the one who did the attack and was on the front the whole time during it. And it was impressive he was able to up the pace of the attack that much when responding to Wout's attack.

Spectacular race... chase all day long.
Chapeau!

Decent compensation for the opening weekend.
And convenient opening of the "Holy Week".

Does this count as the crosser winner?

Naah, he did dressage, never cyclocross.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Kinda stupid racing by Oli and Greg.

Wolfpack damn helpful for Asgreen, yes, but to be in front for 50k like that and then attack again and win it... that's Kasper's win.

Definitely.

 

[Billie]

Naesen and Van Avermaet spent years complaining about being alone in this situation only to wait way to long to react here

Tactical Lesson by QS to VDP and WVA

 

[Bonimenier]

Crazy to think that DQS still has to add Alaphilippe for RvV

 

[jaylew]

Terrific, terrific race from like 80k on

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Only 4 other people voted "a wolf" in the poll.

lol

I knew he would win but would never tell, so I get points too.

Has a fitting jersey, though...

 

[Samu Cuenca]

It's all about riding for him, isn't it?

Kinda stupid racing by Oli and Greg.

Indeed, looked like neither one of them wanted to sacrifice their chances.

 

[kingjr]

Jumbo is abysmal, really.

Don't forget that I voted all of the above, so I get the most points.

 

[jaylew]

Obviously. English is a rich language.

Well, I've been speaking it solely since I was 1 and I'm not aware of different words. Unless we have different definitions for the word excrement.

Or it's another UK-specific english word like whinge

Kinda funny because they are close friends and usually train together.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Quick Step strongest team
Asgreen strongest rider.

Nothing you can do against that. Not even Wva/MvdP. They were slaughtered basically.

 

[jmdirt]

I love it when aggressive racing pays off!

Congrats KA!

 

[saganftw]

good result for Hoelgaard as well

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Jumbo is abysmal, really.

When van Aert proves he can ride a good classic in the future, they will build a good team around him.

Also, your name has now been added to a blacklist of a certain other cycling forum

It's just that bullsh*it kind of sounds like it's an excrement from bulls solely.

What the hell was the plan anyway?

Van der Poel was insane for just letting the gap go out when the attack wasn't that explosive and he only had 5 meters. But the rest should aim to be on that move ASAP. You know Asgreen is gonna go again.
