I'm left wondering if we were all fish, whether the underwater sector would be as dangerous...

If there are otters in water, then yes.

 

[Didinho]

And beer. Wtf.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Biggest gap since Museeuw

 

[Danskebjerge]

Most boring cycling season since the era of Merckx.

If Mathieu's girlfriend follows Mathieu to the bedroom this evening, she will see Vermeersch just behind her.

Pedersen girlfriend would be alone, cause Mads would chase Vermeersch somewhere else

 

[Sciatic]

MVDP looked like a moth flying to a flame for a moment there

 

[Ricco']

My opinion is that holding the race on saturday values the Paris - Roubaix Femmes so we can watch it properly, but yesterday's race surely missed all this human audience on the fields.

 

[Ripper]

Dude's going to pull a Johan

Next year, if I wanted to beat VDP, I would simply not ride a crash-risky mickey mouse race a few days before the Tour of Flanders.

 

[ppanther92]

MvdP still rides the corners like a madman

 

[meat puppet]

Okay, missed it but don't think I missed much.

 

[proffate]

Largest winning margin for ages + fastest race ever?

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Hysterical anti chicane brigade: IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED!!! THE RACE COULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT, I'M JUST NOT SURE HOW???!!!

Me: Nothing happened...try decaf. Mathieu takes the win solo, regardless. Prolly fewer broken bones this year. Pity that, huh...

Hope she faces charges. Thats almost worse than Allez Omi and Opi - there I actually felt a bit sad for the girl, since she was just stupid/misjudging the situation. This was intentional.

E: but sadly often such things are only rated by the impact and since luckily nothing happened, I fear she will just get away.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

It seems some people take their chapeaus too literally.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

It was a big factor in Alpecin shredding the peloton so early to not have anything with chicane risk

...you know that they wouldn't have ridden the fastest pace every in P-R, regardless, how? Again, if we were all fish, this would have played out completely differently.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

If there are otters in water, then yes.

Fair point

 

[Unchained]

So, first they let the gap get to 2+ minutes, and then they start riding together. Genius.

Alpecin riders covered everything until the gap was 1:30..Pollit has had some juice all day but can't do anything with it,

 

[Peyroteo94]

My opinion is that holding the race on saturday values the Paris - Roubaix Femmes so we can watch it properly, but yesterday's race surely missed all this human audience on the fields.

Why are people trying to force people to like women cycling? Just should earn that and not always backing on the men to help their audience.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Looks like an interesting race

 

[fbjim]

Let us discount the immense impact that the chicane had on the race and simply agree that the chicane is incredibly stupid.

 

[Didinho]

Küng will stop riding with Pithie behind. Philipsen waiting on Vermeersch. Hope they can bridge.

Utterly egregious.

Deliberately trying to hurt a person.
