Paris-Roubaix 2012 - The Queen of the Classics (257.5km)

[Ryo Hazuki]

80 is almost 100?? that's 20km difference lol. it's not almost 100

use your brain next time

you know what I meant. boom is always good in the first 200 km of a race

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Boonen looks very calm and unconcerned imo.

Like 2010, minding his own business away from the front

 

[Flamin]

Betfair thinks Ballon & Flecha have a better chance than Thor.

Flecha? That's pretty dumb.

 

[Kwibus]

Respect to Hincapie, vandenbergh etc.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Flecha? That's pretty dumb.

Coming back from injury, but still shown as much as Thor this year - diddly.

Remember PR last year?

 

[DominicDecoco]

Ballan being so clever here. What a move. OPQS is in all kind of trouble at the moment.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

The Ballan group is getting no leeway.

 

[Trofinios]

Flecha and Ballan soon caught.

 

[Epicycle]

The Ballan group is getting no leeway.

Steegmans is not allowing it.

 

[The Hitch]

Got a link?

It was on the tv before PR.

 

[DominicDecoco]

And now crosswinds!

 

[Trofinios]

Paolini looks solid.

 

[Publicus]

Surprised there was no crash coming out of that corner

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Echelons

 

[Caruut]

Ah, my link went dead between the track cycling and PR

 

[Trofinios]

Crucial moment now.

 

[DominicDecoco]

What a race this is, lads! Now we just need a bit of rain!

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Pozzato not doing very good today.

 

[gerundium]

echelons on this part of road and pozzato caught behind. P-R not going smooth for him so far.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Steegmans absolutely demolished the peloton!

 

[insideout leadout]

Sky and Rabo are doing well today.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Cobbles + wind = two of the easiest ways to turn flat racing into greatness.

Thor was pretty crap up to this point last year too. Yet he was super in Roubaix. I wouldn't read too much into his poor spring thus far.

 

[Moncoutie]

Any idea where degenkolb is?
