Eschborn-Frankfurt 2026, May 1

[E_F_]

Landsforræder Valgren!

This was the 2025 german Championship RR on repeat. Englehardt does too much work in the front group and Zimmerman comes over the top.

 

[Danskebjerge]

Landsforræder Valgren!

But great to see an old school one day race - with suspense on the last kilometers.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I don't think he was in the race.

Danskebjerge clearly has some eye issue so a pretty fitting typo/brain fart.

Landsforræder Valgren!

But it seems him working for Baudin might have helped ensure me the Green Jersey win in the CQ Spring Classics game!


Wait... am I a traitor?
Do I need to take away my own citizenship?

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

sometimes you really have to be the one who commits first and gets a jump on everyone. A lesson for the rest of that group.

 

[Netserk]

i couldnt believe how ef rode

work less and attack first with baudin so valgren could counter . any kind of sprint would be a fail for them

 

[search]

Quickstep is chasing, so Dainese must be there

not that it makes much of a difference anymore, but turns out they were chasing for Raccagni.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Great win for Zimmermann and Lotto, just what they needed. Congrats.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Mauri Vansevevant honours family tradition by being the last of the finishers.

Awfully played by EF in the final.

Even worse work by the TV directors. Fire the lot.

 

[Roku]

Very happy for Gigi and also for Gualdi - He is turning into the rider I expected Bussatto to become. Also nice to see Van Boven and Rota in the peloton. Nice day for our Wanty guys.

This deserves a bump:

Lol, funniest interview of the Tour with Georg Zimmermann:

Kasper Højstrup (who to Zimmermann's credit is the most annoying person involved in cycling): How will it be like to ride on the Bastille Day.

GZ: Like, I'm German, so I don't care about the French national day.

KH: You don't think it will be extra special riding today?

GZ: No, I don't think so.

Kasper Højstrup is getting some real competition right now in the likes of Sanne Jakobsen, Nicki Sørensen etc. What a stupid question lmao

I remember you once defended Nicki when I complained about him. Good to see you have come to your senses. How can they honestly use him that much and where the HELL is Rolf?

I almost never watch on TV2 anymore, despite the fact that I like Ritter because Nicki is apparently always there. At least he won't be commentating on the Tour.
