ENECO Tour(WT), 12th-18th August 2013

[Libertine Seguros]

Possibility a deal has been made between Stybar and Stannard. Probably best for Stannard as with the slightly uphill run-in to the line his only other chance would be to pull a de Bonis.

Too late, there goes Styby.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

No deal made

 

[spalco]

Good win for Stybar, but hugely impressive from Stannard too.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

No gifts, I like it, but too bad for Stannard.

 

[Afrank]

Stybar's got it, great win for him, stage and overall.

That was a great stage, now I'm off for a ride.

Great race this year.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Great race this year.

Absolutely. They should always do this + add a good limburg stage with some nice climbs next year as well

Stannard was running out of gas in the, Stybar just couldn't wait no matter any deals.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Good win for Stybar, but hugely impressive from Stannard too.

Being a super strong duracell bunny who will not die and who will put in huge turns and huge moves, but who just lacks that last weapon to convert those strong rides into wins, is becoming his calling card.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Absolutely. They should always do this + add a good limburg stage with some nice climbs next year as well

yeah, gotta make racing exciting. Drop the idea of going to every city if the terrain is dull etc.

Stronger wind on one of the flat stages would have made this race perfect.

 

[Museeuw]

Beautiful, beautiful day!!! Thanks Stybar&OP-QS!!!

Pretty impressive top 10 imo.

 

[Bushman]

Impressive attack from Stybar at 6 k to go.

 

[Orbit501]

Another superb stage!

Brilliant ride by Stybar, fantastic effort from Stannard and Chapeau to Tom Dumoulin who was just beaten by the stronger man at the end.

 

[classicomano]

Fantastic race overall, too bad about Tommy D but Stybar was mighty strong.

 

[JRanton]

Great race this year!

 

[LaFlorecita]

Styby!!!! Cool.

 

[jsem94]

This Eneco Tour is the first one to even remotely live up to the racing the region allows.

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

Absolutely. They should always do this + add a good limburg stage with some nice climbs next year as well

I want a really hilly TT next year. Or even a cobbled one (Oudenaarde to Brakel, for example).

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

cobbled ITT over the Bosberg and Muur.
