National Championship Discussion/Results

[Froome19]

Czech Republic not Slovenia.

They do a combined one.
Czechslovakia.....

But indeed Rabon is Czeck republican

 

[FF'Wilco]

Michał Gołaś won Polish RR

 

[Michele]

Really ? Is he that strong on hilly terrain ? Did he ever win Ardennes Classic or come Top 10 in it ?

He's strong, but so is Gesink, Boom and Mollema.

Ardenne Classics are in April, Nationals are in June.

To be fair the route seems pretty fast even with that small hill/climb.

 

[Arnout]

I'm starting to dislike Boom. I've never really liked him but he's turning himself into a one trick pony with a negative style.

If Rabobank still wins this, it should better be Gesink, although he should've gone solo a long time ago.

Slovakia and Czech Republic have combined.

Not Slovenia and Czechs

Props to Terpstra but I really hoped a GC rider would get the jersey for once.

damn nikki is strong today

is that T_D riding 10 meters behind the rabo group?

meanwhile in portugal Sergio Paulinho's younger brother, Pedro, becomes the u23 road champ.

 

[Froome19]

Roy and Pichon caught by the peloton.

Seems like Chavanel out alone

 

[screaming fist]

In France Chavanel attacks at 19k to go

 

[Gloin22]

Roy and Pichon caught by the peloton.

Seems like Chavanel out alone

Wrong, Roy and Pichon fell together and Chavanel avoided the crash.

Actually Roy fell 2nd time now in the peleton, unlucky.

Fredrigo leading 20 men strong FDJ for Demare now.

Chavanel is not going win. Defo.
