La Fleche Wallonne

What's Contador's best performance in a one-day race to date?

 

[auscyclefan94]

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 less 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

Fair enough, i am an ardennes man. like the cobbles but prefer the ardennes.

No Kroon, but De Gendt

Astana working.. Hmm faith in Contador?

The best move would be to force Katusha and Caisse to do the work here. They have the most favorites.

I think he was in the top 30 at Fleche in 2006 or 2007. Nothing to write home about.

+1 - Everyone always looks to saxo in the classics.

I was just going to ask how often crashes mar this race. Just terrible crash. Looks like Popo is on the tarmac.

[Dekker_Tifosi]

[Publicus]

Did the commentators (P2P) just call it the Mur de Hoy?

Paulhino rides for Radio Shack. Maybe it was Jufre. Weird there has been no update of who was involved.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Katusha really whipping it up! They are confident in Rodriguez obviously.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Did the commentators (P2P) just call it the Mur de Hoy?

Muur de Ho!
