Once, twice, three times a Lotte victory? 21st Women's Ronde van Vlaanderen, March 31st, 2024

Kopecky looks done.

Missed a couple feeds at least. The rate they now ride at requires such a great and constant intake of carbs that it might have played a role

But to me she looks a bit off anyway

It's on Discovery+UK. If you can access that...

Ah, dammit. That explains it -- I can't. I think maybe it's being shown on Flo bikes in the US. Time to download and pay for another app.

she was caught up in the first big crash, so maybe hurt, but theyre gapping her up this climb, which isnt what youd expect, and yep she looks done

 

[meat puppet]

Pedaling squares now. Adjö!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Looks like I jinxed Kopecky. Oops!

 

[Didinho]

23” at the top. Vollering pacing herself back to the front?

 

[Sciatic]

Who’s the rider in the front group who looks like a bobble head doll when she is climbing?

 

[Didinho]

Kopecky working for Vollering now I think.

Kopecky working for Vollering now I think.

that will be the day not sure why they would though, with Wiebes up ahead, they dont really want G2 to catch G1 do they ?

Having numbers is better, and Wiebes might not be strong enough, although she could also be the strongest.

Better have Vollering with Wiebes maybe. She was too far back at the Koppenberg but looks strong. And keep the pressure from behind so Wiebes doesn’t have to ride.

Persico maybe ? didnt get a good look at it as the director is following G2 more.

true but you bring numbers for Visma and Lidl with you, unless you drop them, which is what theyre trying to do now

 

[awavey]

Im surprised given the gap the cars are still sat in there behind g1

 

[meat puppet]

Kasia gonna boss this. Last paterberg tired w/kg take off imminent

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Well it's obviously not a foolproof plan.

 

[Didinho]

Comon Letizia. Hang on.

 

[glassmoon]

Demi is freeeeeeee!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Unfortunate mechanical for Curinier, who's ridden a fine race.

Demi's closing the gap.

 

[meat puppet]

This is infinitely better than the men's race

 

[awavey]

Well it's obviously not a foolproof plan.

tbf its kind of worked if Demi can make the junction across now

 

[Didinho]

Vollering chasse patatting. G1 will drop the pace soon.

Messing around at the front is helping her come back.

Vollering chasse patatting.

I believe it's called Mads patating after today 😉
Or maybe you have to be in front for it to count.

Smart and brutal move from Kasia to attack there
