Lesser known races 2025 edition

[Ilmaestro99]

Nice watching guilliaume climbing in the drops and out the saddle. What an attack.

 

[Netserk]

Buchmann 12th. Let's hope he will also light Frankfurt on fire.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

FDJ winning a Coupe de France race sponsored by FDJ: conflict of interest!

Much less of a conflict than the Roland team owner organising races in El Salvador purely to farm UCI points.

 

[RedheadDane]

T. Rex on the attack, alongside Eiking, Hänninen, and Sommer (who forgot it's only spring).
Peloton at almost five minutes.

 

[Cycling111]

Tim Rex and Laurenz Rex have any family ties?

Tim Rex and Laurenz Rex have any family ties?

Brothers.

 

[Roku]

T. Rex on the attack, alongside Eiking, Hänninen, and Sommer (who forgot it's only spring).
Peloton at almost five minutes.

No choice but to root for the impossible win from the break, whether it is Eiking or Hanninen and T-Rex in 3rd.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

du Jura: 4 in front with 4mins, 60km to go. Route heavily backloaded. Streams available.

 

[RedheadDane]

T. Rex on the attack, alongside Eiking, Hänninen, and Sommer (who forgot it's only spring).
Peloton at almost five minutes.

It appears Sommer has been transformed into Jakob Schmidt.

The peleton will need to work hard to bring back the 2 rider break in the Jura race.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

The peleton will need to work hard to bring back the 2 rider break in the Jura race.

Not sure, both of them didn't look good on the last climb.

 

[RedheadDane]

ODD ATTACK!

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Yellow Mollema still there.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Eiking doing well, still with 1:21 to "peloton". Still about 4km of climbing left after a little dip. Could be close.

 

[RedheadDane]

Rolland chopping bits off Eiking's advantage.

(No relation to Pierre.)

 

[Kazistuta]

Yellow Mollema still there.

Who's that? If that's Cian, I don't get the reference.

 

[Samamba]

Nordhagen looking decent for once. It's time he gets a good result, it should definitely be possible in this field.

 

[postmanhat]

Never seen this race before. What a beautifully brutal parcours.

 

[Samamba]

Thermonuclear Nordhagen incoming

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Eiking still looks good, but no attacks from the back yet

 

[Samamba]

The VO2 Max monster on his way to a podium

Even tho he looks like he's about to fall of his bike while Martin is doing a Pantani again

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Eiking gone... Good ride from him.

 

[RedheadDane]

Come on, Jørgen!







(My hopes of scoring points for the main CQ games are gone, so might as well bet on the Emerging Riders game...)

 

[Samamba]

Martin gonna go 2 out of 2

 

[Samamba]

Buchmann alive!
