Liege - Bastogne - Liege

[auscyclefan94]

It was a good race. Not a Vino fan, but don't really hate the guy either. He doped, served his time, he attacks and makes things interesting in most of the races he enters. Meh. At least Valverde didn't win.

Gilbert must be dissapointed.

 

[python]

i don't know if they agreed on anything prior to the race... I mean they were both better off staying together till the finish.

or do you mean that they talked before the race to say where they would attack?

yes, that's what i meant. it is well known that vino, ivanov and kolobnev are personal friends speaking the same language.

I refuse to watch this. See you all tomorrow.

Bye.

+1. Best comment the entire race.

As in, "Houston, we have a problem".

Another great comment from Velonews:

"Great day for cycling, two un-repentant dopers on the podium."

*sigh* only 358 more days until ardennes week next year...

Healthy attitude...

Although I have to say, all the three Ardennes classics were of a very high calibre this year.

Valverde sucked a whole lot of wheels. Glad he didn't win.

 

[auscyclefan94]

So, to just clear things up, the podium is

1. kolobnev
2. Gilbert
3. Evans

 

[hfer07]

Vino is by far the must successful rider after being sanctioned....
now he's going to spark the Giro even more!!!!

 

[Moondance]

disappointed even.

Houston, we have a problem.

Guess you will have to miss the rest of the season as well then.

 

[superconfex]

I feel robbed.

Robbed of watching Vino these last few years.

If you're going to forgive somebody, forgive the exciting ones.

Well done Vino...Racing will be exciting again

Yea, it would have been nice to see Gilbert win. He concentrated on the wrong people today.

I wonder how Schlecklet felt to tow Contador to the line. I would think that will become a very common sight in July...well, except for those couple of stages when he watches him ride away.

Agreed.

Any sign of Horner during the race? I didn't see him. He sounded like he was feeling good yesterday.

I think he finished with the Contador/Schleck group about 1'07" back.

No, it's not.
Even in you're twisted logic you have to scrape the former T-Mobile and current Phonak rider.

I think Contador needs to go for stages and Vino for the win at the Tour.

Corrected.

I feel seriously conflicted, LOL.

 

[auscyclefan94]

I'm sorry, it's 1am, i didn't get an hour of sleep yesterday and I have laryngitis. Please do not mock me. Now, vino has won, i am really ****ed off.

I refuse to watch this. See you all tomorrow.

Bye.

P1 drugs cheat
P2 Kolobnev
P3 A guy banned from racing in Italy
P4 Gilbert
P5 Evans

Gilbert should be proud of himself - tremendous ride against the odds.

pretty happy to see evans up there despite the lack of pull from P3...
would have preferred to see kolobnev come through for the win though.

 

[53 x 11]

Yeah.... I deleted my post quoting him. Felt it better not to repeat that garbage.

LOL.........

He gets a little upset cos his man crush didnt win and now people are sticking up for him. I just want to help him out in a more positive way.

It was a great race, thats whats important.

ACF would be happy to watch a 10kmhr parade if Cuddles won it at the end. People who like to watch bike racing would disagree.

 

[Parrot23]

I think Contador needs to go for stages and Vino for the win at the Tour.

LOL, time to cry, or do penance.
