Wynants certainly don't get my sympathy when he responds in kind. If you find such behaviour unacceptable, don't do it yourself.

Fighting for positions includes contact between riders

just ridiculous.... fighting for position... fighting yeah. go watch wrestling or full contact or so...

Do you realy want your kid to make a dangerous sport even more dangerous with madman acting like that. Did you ever ride a bike in competition?

I remember danish national team using same tactics in small races here in Belgium when i was a junior. That was there only way to ever get a result.

Wellens schooled favorites yesterday big time and deserves the GC win - chapeau...
Great ride by Keirs today

Yes he did! Epic fail by Belkin

 

[LosBrolin]

Tim Wellens is having a great season

Yes sport is dangerous. Cycling very much so. Deal with it.

So if someone slaps you in the face, you run away?

It's a human reaction. I think Wynants responded really good. If you have more of a gangstar on a bike, he would beat Terpstra's *** out.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

well, the final stage was a bit of a dud.
But congrats to van Keirsbulck and Wellens.

Indeed, you can't do nothing about riders who act like this, just like crashes

I either hit back and don't complain/whine about it, or I turn the other cheek (and in the case of real violence report it to the police).

If Wynants won't complain, then others will do. I think Gilbert is happy about the fact Terpstra did this.

Boom: 'I was just starting to get some respect for Terpstra'

Ouch.

Terpstra:

True, but it's rather a pity for him that 70% of the peloton thinks the same way. Perhaps he should learn from this.

Didn't see it, but it looks like Terpstra went full ***. Good to see that Wynants didn't get intimidated by Terpstra at all

Terpstra should be punished for this though. Ridiculous really.

He has been punished 2 minute time penalty.

 

[Netserk]

I hope Wynants will be punished as well then.

I'm glad your such a tough guy, but what Terpstra did has nothing to do with road cycling. Ofcourse he can disturb Belkin, but riding to the front and then try to body check Wynants awaybos just ***.

Lol...if this is allowed we would have mayhem in the bunch. Bodychecks everywhere.

Pff wow 2 minutes.....

 

[Arredondo]

He will not, because he's the guy in the defensive.

And if Belkin thinks it's such a bad thing to do, Wynants shouldn't have retaliated. "He started it" is the lamest excuse ever.

 

[Kwibus]

I hope Wynants will be punished as well then.

So according to you Wynants should've just let himself be pushed to side and ride behind Terpstras wheel and stop pulling.
He had to defend himself to do his work.

Lol what is your agenda here really? All your posts on this subject have been ridiculous.

Ouch.

yeah,Terpstra is an enormous biatch.But I like him as a cyclist,as a man,not so much

Lol what is your agenda here really? All your posts on this subject have been ridiculous.

no,he's got a point.Wynanats returned him so he shouldnt complain at all.
I hate those whining cyclist lol

Either he should have retaliated equally and then done is done. Get over it.

Or he shouldn't have retaliated, but have some words with him/yell at him and then complain to the officials after the race.

It's chicken **** to try and do both.
