Food poisoning, just like many others apparently

Ahh too bad, at least it's nothing serious then. Thanks for the info.

Still it was good he took that first win out of the way, he's been riding well. I didn't know he could climb so well.
Disappointing ride for Beltran but maybe he had food poison too

"Comeback" year for Herklotz in sight?

 

[Ruudz0r]

Why a comeback year? He was good last year, maybe he didnt perform the way he wanted in every race, but he was consistant and got in some good results for a then 2nd year U23 rider.

 

[DBotero]

They should rename Le Tour de Langkawi in Guardini's honour,he won 18 stages so far.

Not really a comeback, thats why I put quotation marks. He was flying in 2013, his first year as u23, and even though he put in some good rides last year I kinda felt that he didn't quite live up to the expectations.

I'm really glad to see him on a good level this year also, very promising and likeable rider IMO.

Boeckmans wins.
It seems to me Lotto is ringing up wins broadly this season compared to last (or was it the year before?)

That looked easy. Youngster Bauhaus rode well also by being 4th.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Boeckmans in good form, I wonder what he'll do in San Remo

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Lol I love Gougeard.

I remember in the Driedaagse van West Vlaanderen he also went in the break two times despite being high in the GC. I initially just started following Gougeard a bit because I picked him in the CQ game, but it looks like he's always racing very aggressive, so I'm really starting to like him!

 

[Dazed and Confused]

About 25km to go, break with 1 minute still.

 

[staubsauger]

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