Le Samyn 2022 (March 1)

[Samamba]

Just tuned in, how far back is the peloton?

Will catch the 2nd group in no time now so not that far

 

[postmanhat]

Campanaerts being quite canny. Hanging around the back for a few K before joining the lead group

 

[Mayomaniac]

Mozzato is getting better and better in cobbled one day races, he wouldn't have gained all that experience if he rode for an Italian PCT team...

 

[Samamba]

Campenaerts ruining himself again like last year.

Looks like Trentin is doing the same. Shouldn't he try to save some energy for the climbs and cobbles and try to get rid of the faster guys that way?

Trentin riding good the last 5-10k tho. LTS pretty much in throuble with everyone looking at them and only Campenaerts being really good.

 

[Samamba]

These guys are gone. Hofstetter for the win, riding smart.

 

[postmanhat]

Trentin finally succeeds in making a selection. Might fancy his chances against Hofsteter and Van Gestel if they stay away?

 

[Netserk]

Without significant wind it would have been better to wait for the cobbles.

 

[Salvarani]

Might come together tbh

 

[Samamba]

So bunch just going to come back and then Jakobsen ftw?

I hate when front groups don't work together when there's no reason not to for most riders in it.

 

[RedheadDane]

Where was Gibbons going?

Yeah and the team who are mainly pulling in the bunch aren't even those with the fastest guys...

He should attack in the next cobble sector.
I don't think this group is working well.

 

[Samamba]

Trentin is in the form of his life

Also Dries van Gestel is surprising me the last few days. Sagan is bad but the other total riders are pretty good.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Hofstetter is looking good for the win.

 

[SafeBet]

Peloton not coming back if Cerny is the one pulling.

 

[Samamba]

Vliegen hasn't left Campenaerts wheel.

 

[Mayomaniac]

If they don't get caught the Hoff got this one.

 

[Samamba]

Yeah trentin just going to lose to Hoffstetter isn't he?

 

[postmanhat]

Don't think there's enough will or firepower in the peleton to catch them now?

 

[Mayomaniac]

Yeah trentin just going to lose to Hoffstetter isn't he?

Yes, that's the most Trentin thing ever. His sprint is also not that great after a hard race.

 

[Samamba]

No bunch is not coming back

 

[SafeBet]

The most Trentin thing ever would be losing the sprint to Campenaerts.

 

[Netserk]

Why is Vliegen working?!
