Paris - Roubaix: April 14th, 2019

[Broccolidwarf]

As predicted, Mads P is ridning on pure rage...... but you have to wonder how long he can keep that up.

 

[rick james]

Break might go here

 

[rick james]

Crosswinds

 

[Laplaz]

Trentin and Politt on the attack

 

[Tigerion]

No Quickstep in the break?
Only sky and Bora chasing. Do they have riders in the 2nd group

 

[sir fly]

Tête-à-tête, isn't it?

Re: Re:

Bold prediction: Joseph Areruya to finish 92nd.

I predict DNF.

Not bold at all

I didnt use that word in my post

 

[pink_jersey]

Lampaert is in the third group.
Politt and Trentin already attacking.

Re:

Trentin and Politt on the attack

Yeah, very interesting with them up the road.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Where's Wout?

 

[rick james]

Who the sky rider at the back? Is this his first time on cobbles?

Re:

Think it was Ganna, but I might be wrong.

 

[sir fly]

Powerfull group.

 

[Gigs_98]

That group is immensely dangerous

 

[Laplaz]

Very interesting race right now

 

[Tigerion]

Going to be interesting to see if quarter of the peleton is dropped on this next sector of cobbles considering the speed of the race to date

Re: Re:

Showers predicted for Saturday in Roubaix so cold, damp and headwind. Usch!

Rain in the saturday before PR but a dry sunday. In other news, the Sky ist blue

Cobbles may still be wet; it's better than nothing

It won't be dusty and it won't be wet. With the headwind a big bunch might come together after Wallers-Arenberg. I can see a big group and outsiders attacking in the final.

The question is which team can take the race in its hands. DQSt looks doubtful after last week. I wonder what EF can do with Vanmarcke-Langeveld-Phinney.

 

[sir fly]

This 50" isn't that significant until they get over the Arenberg.
The watershed's going to be there, as always.

Anyone else finding this forum not connecting on and off?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Oh no Trentin flat!

 

[rick james]

Do any of the pro teams run tubeless for this race?

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Jumbo working in the peloton is strange, don't they have Eenkhoorn and Van Poppel in the break?

Not today, but often during the past week.

 

[Gigs_98]

Super unlucky for trentin
