La Fleche Wallonne

[auscyclefan94]

Come on everyone, place your bets, put your money where your mouth is! Who will win? What will the podium be?

My tips
Evans (not just bias thinking, i seriously think he will win)
Gesink (will recover from Amstel with a strong result)
Rodriguez (will show his former captain who's boss but won't take the cigar)

 

[Moondance]

My tips:

1. Rodriguez
2. Cunego
3. Valv-Piti

But thinking that he will win is biased thinking

i think he will win because of ability, not just because he's my fav rider.

Trying the VLC broadcast via Team Sky Fans. Does it always buffer so much? Or am I doing something wrong?

But you estimation of his ability is colored by the fact that he's your favorite rider....

I'm not saying he doesn't have the ability to win.... But he didn't have the form in Amstel, so I don't think he'll have it today.

Are you downloading/torrenting something?

 

[ak-zaaf]

My guess:
1. Evans
2. Schlecklet
3. Valverde

Let's hope I'm wrong ;p

Whatever...you are not listening.

To what?

I admit I haven't followed this thread the last few days and only read the last page.....

Sorry.

I just copied the link from the site and clicked on open a new network. Beautiful picture (and lovely having English commentary), but unless I can figure out what I'm doing wrong here, I'm switching to something else.

No, I don't really like FW. Let's hope the parcours change don't reward natural wheelsuckers so much anymore.

Kroon already in the attack, following his ex teammates
edit: well he is mentioned, but I don't see him
It's the Gendt, not Kroon, they noted the wrong number. Makes sense

I'm a bit late but JENS!

 

[stefrees]

little group off the front, led by jens! moreau, froome, didier, kroon, bakelandts and righi

 

[Publicus]

Saxo sent Jens! because they don't want to be responsible for the chase.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

No Kroon, but De Gendt

Astana working.. Hmm faith in Contador?

Just about to say that. Could come up with the goods. I am interested to see how he goes.

The Mur is cool, but it leaves very little room for surprises. Favorites just have to wait for the traditional 1km of action...80 left now =/
That's why I liked the Gold Race better when it didn't finish on the much praised Cauberg. But at least the Gold Race has +250 km.

For me:
1. Flanders
2. LBL
3. Roubaix
4. Lombardy
5. Omloop het Volk
