Not too much riding on the cobbles.

Is there any way to force these cyclists to ride on cobbles instead of sidepaths?

The only way I can win today is if I go to the finish with a group that is slower than me.

Put restrictions so they cant physically go there.

Make it clear before the race what is allowed.

Now they cant really do anything because everybody went on there in both groups. It wasnt just one or two riders that did it.

It must be quite expensive to put the barriers in all section. As mods said they were warned that should have ridden on cobbles. Nobodody cares :).

I do not want to explore America here :) but I would welcome some kind of yellow cards or warnings. 1,2 disqualification.

One two riders disqualified and the rest might start to use cobbles again.

They not gonna catch Oss and Stuyven with any ease... I think if peloton catches the other group though it will be hard for them.

I think Oss and Stuyven have made it more likely that it all comes back together. It’s a long way for two to survive and they seem to have demoralized the big group.

I was just saying Oss and Stuyen will be hard to catch in context to the group they left. If you read the full post, then what is happening now is exactly what I also alluded to.
