Lesser known races results 2015

[Hugo Koblet]

Wow very nice repeat of last year's victory. Soloing to victory in the same race two years in a row is indeed quite an accomplishment. He's been really good this season, Gougeard.

Re:

The CTV Zeeland stream is full and there's a talk show on. No live cycling for me today!

Apparently the weather is horrendous and there's a Etixx-QuickStep show on!

Front group consists of Terpstra, Keisse and Wiznowski - the rest of the peloton (only 18 riders left in the race!) has four Steppers amongst them. Crazy!

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Gougeard!!!!
Lol winning a one day race twice in a row from the break is pretty cool.

Lefevere is on the phone with Squinzi now...

 

[Akuryo]

Behind those 3 is Lampaert (also EQS) with Teuns. Could they even go 1-2-3-4?

 

[MagnusMagnussen]

1. Iljo Keisse
2. Niki Terpstra
3. Lukasz Wisniowski

edit:

4. Lampaert
5. Theuns

 

[Dazed and Confused]

HotSteppers, lol

 

[Akuryo]

Van Keirsbulck was also 8th

Edit: Only 9 riders finished the race. 5 of them were from EQS.

 

[Flamin]

Lol, nice. Btw, strong start of the year from Wisniowski.

 

[jens_attacks]

apocalyptic race means untouchable war machines wins.

very low level though ...

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

TLJ was there.. they only had Timo Roosen in the top 10 at the end... what's that team doing in the world tour anyway

 

[LosBrolin]

Nice pic, eh?

mary....

Re:

Wtf is that result. It surely helps that there is no real opposition apart from Theuns.

Garmin is a bigger failure than they anyway.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

dan martin vs vanmarcke to save their teams

 

[De Snelle Duif]

In Taiwan the tour of Taiwan has started with Wipperttaking the win. He shouldn't have too much competition in the sprint,yet he'll certainly lose the lead jersey in the upcoming three days, where hill climbing is necessary and the Tabriz showdown is imminent. The main question is if Mizbani or Poorseyedi will win.

Thanks!

Cholet-Pays de Loire

Mr Nose wins by attacking break group with about 25km to go. Solo.

From ticker this was a very dynamic and lively race. Hopefully we will get an extended highlight package.

Tour de Taiwan, stage 2:

1 Patrick Bevin (NZl) Avanti Racing Team 2:50:32
2 Hossein Askari (IRI) Pishgaman - Giant Team 0:00:02
3 Mirsamad Pourseyedi Golakhour (IRI) Tabriz Petrochemical Team 0:00:12
4 Rahim Emami (IRI) Pishgaman - Giant Team 0:00:26
5 Marco Zanotti (Ita) Parkhotel Valkenburg Continental Team 0:00:30
6 Jasper Ockeloen (Ned) Parkhotel Valkenburg Continental Team 0:00:30
7 Travis Meyer (Aus) Drapac Professional Cycling 0:00:30
8 Alexandr Shushemoin (Kaz) Vino 4ever 0:00:30
9 Yukihiro Doi (Jpn) Team Ukyo 0:00:30
10 Víctor De La Parte (Esp) Team Vorarlberg 0:00:30

The New Zealander getting in the way of the Iranian super group, but there will be tougher climbing later in the race.

Bevin leads GC.

 

[mortand]

That's Bevin's second win on a short'ish uphill finish this year (or perhaps his third, I'm not familiar with The REV Classic, which he also won). Is he the New Zealand version of Purito?
