Chapeau solo effort by Jose Been

Less than 70 Ks to go in Belgium. Or is it Northern France? I'm not sure.
Two riders with a very small gap.

Don’t get confused with the Franco-Belge race name, it’s all in Belgium. But it starts close to the border with France, close to Roubaix also. They’re going north.

De Lie won it last year. They’re doing some local laps with the Cote de Trieu from the Flamish classics.

 

[Samamba]

Volta Limburg Classic Groves is here.

 

[Anderis]

Those Colombians dominating all the French races!

 

[Brullnux]

Volta Limburg Classic Groves is here.

He was in great form at the Giro tbh, he was just stuck in annoying spot. Some of the hilly stages were too hard for Merlier but not for Milan/Kooij who are faster than him, and the hilly stages which were too hard for Milan were also too hard for Groves.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Those Colombians dominating all the French races!

Why weren't the Spanish riders affected?

 

[Valv.Piti]

Good to see David Gaudu is ready for le Tour once again

Also impressive by, errr. Chinese rider Mühlberger in 5th.

 

[Tim Cahill]

I thought it was interesting to see De Lie on the startlist but it's just Juraj De Lie

 

[Samamba]

Last years edition was way better; This one is too controlled cause almost all the big teams have a punchy guy who can win an uphill sprint.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Blackmore riding for, I assume Sheehan? Not so sure about that

 

[Mayomaniac]

Good to see David Gaudu is ready for le Tour once again

His femboy discord channel is probably in shambles atm...

 

[Mayomaniac]

I assume Berthe will go to the Tour ti support Gall/maybe Lafay? Most of their climbing doms rode the Giro and Peters is supposed to ride the Vuelta...

 

[Samamba]

This could be it. Probably the 3 best teams are up front. And a moto in front of them

 

[Samamba]

Doubt Bax can win this tho if he keeps riding like that.

UNO X is very dominant in Belgian races this month.

I think it's done. Teams who aren't up front don't have more than 1 helper left in peloton.

 

[Bolder]

lil lenny martinez!

He looked great today despite the goofy crash. 5 wins this season at age 20?

 

[Samamba]

Came back to 10s, but Cofidis, Caja and Lotto seem done. Another team needs to come or they won't catch them.

 

[Tim Cahill]

I wonder when they start messing around, worked really well so far

 

[Samamba]

13s again.

 

[Didinho]

They’re back. Girmay vs Hirschi?

 

[Didinho]

Biniaaam!!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Girmay, Zingle and Hirschi, a holy trinity of .Pro races if ever I saw one.

 

[RedheadDane]

Nice on, Bini!
