Kroon working for his next PT team?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Forgot to mention Westra. Westra, Van Leijen for Vacans, van Hummel for Skil. Some smaller team riders and 5 rabo's (weening, ten dam, kruijswijk, gesink and bos)

danish champs :

with 100 km to go a front group has an advantage of 2.10 , group consists of Jacob Nielsen, Jimmi Sørensen, Niki Østergaard, Lasse Bøchman, Michael Berling, Thomas Vedel Kvist, Søren Pugdahl Pedersen, Kristian Haugaard Jensen, Nicki Sørensen, Jakob Fuglsang, Jonas Aaen, Chris Anker Sørensen, André Steensen and Martin Mortensen.

might have missed some names.

edit: apparently there is 22 riders in the frontgroup , so definently missed some.

 

[Tuarts]

I reckon Degenkolb will win in Germany - Martin is doing a lot of work on the front on the climbs apparently.

[Zinoviev Letter]

Ireland, now with less than 30 km to go. The attacks in the lead group keep coming, particularly from Dan Martin. Irvine (Giant Kenda) was temporarily dropped but managed to work his way back on.

French stream: http://www.fromsportcom.com/v-2/10/0/v-300040.html

 

[The Sheep]

Devolder the only Vacansoleil in the first group

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

damn I guess all the dutch streams are geo restricted or not available.

 

[hrotha]

Ok, I'm watching the French and the Belgian championships. In about 20 minutes I'll be able to watch the Spanish race on TV. Now I need a Dutch stream!

 

[Havetts]

Joost Posthuma attacking from the bunch .

 

[Tuarts]

Still about 60 riders in the group at the German NC on the last lap.

A lot of splitting up in the French race - is it just constant attacking or is there any wind?

 

[Descender]

I guess it's pointless to ask for a stream for the Spanish one right?

[Havetts]

Gesink attacking!

Kruijswijk, LTD, van Ooien dropped. some struggling to hold on

 

[Moondance]

Gesink testing his sprint.... Looked pretty good.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Gesink attacks which drops Kruijswijk and Ten Dam with 3 laps to go.

But the rest follow. Course is too easy obviously

 

[The Sheep]

Gesink is an idiot or maybe Rabo are idiots
