Lizzie did well to finish nevermind winning the thing.

Movistar won't be using the same method.

Imagine getting Norsgaard's jersey.
Meanwhile, her sixth was their best result ever in Paris-Roubaix; women or men. As someone pointed out up-thread; seeing Movistar drill it on the cobbles were certainly something new.

Why do they remove the DNA? I remember Sheldon being overjoyed because of getting a napkin of his idol with the DNA on it...
probably RedheadDane spoke of cloning fears again...

Glad this matter is finally being taken seriously!

TREK-Sega is paying the rest so that LD's prize is the same as the men's. That's fantastic for her, but not for the rest (unless their teams step up/can afford to step up).

Hopefully next year it will be equal price money from the promotor. Is it ASO still?

Maybe it's the special Movistar DNA? You know, the sort of thing Superman was missing...

Now I wonder what Doltcini- Van Eyck will be doing, cause some crazy German woman lunatic might think that two Schweinberger twins simply aren't enough!

I would actually love to get her jersey, cause she was definitely "dusty" at the finish. But some other crazy Dane has already offered 139 Euros for it, and 140 is a bit pricy for me.

Not everyone was as lucky as her though

Sad to hear about AvV's fracture. She has had some bad "breaks" in recent years but seems to come back stronger than ever each time.

Pro cyclists in being tougher than you #16483726

I’d be more like;

 

[42x16ss]

Pfff, Roger De Vlaeminck didn't even wear shoes.

RDV even had to slaughter and butcher his own breakfast. Riders these days couldn't even make the start line after a decent Steak

 

[42x16ss]

There's going to be some nerves in the men's peloton if the conditions are the same or worse after seeing that. Riders such as Vos handle a bike as well as the men.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

"There's no better person that deserves this."

To become Libertine Seguros' signature?

DEATH BEFORE DISHONOUR!

 

[42x16ss]

I was also inclined to say that the women have less skills, but I would like to wait untill tomorrow; maybe it’s as bad in the men’s race.

I'd be cautious saying that around someone like Vos. Think back to the 2014 TDF for a reference point

It wasn’t the style of race I was hoping for and it wasn‘t a winner I was cheering for at the start, but that was an iconic ride. Incredibly strong obviously but also very tactically smart in wet conditions. Great bikehandling to somehow stay up in some hairy moments… and all done gloveless with blood all over the handlebars. Chapeau.

Britt Knaven also visited her father's stall yesterday, but I don't think she got to use it.

What stopped her?

She didn't win the race for starters, and the pictures I saw showed her fully dressed, but I'm not sure what was going on.

You are only allowed to use the showers if you win? And I don't think being fully dressed would be much of an issue; might as well get everything cleaned...

I don't know what NXTGs policy is regarding dust and DNA

 

[BlueRoads]

How much did they get for the cleaned-not cleaned jerseys so far?

You can check out the auction here. An American bidder really wants Van Vleuten's jersey!

So Deignan said she got her first minute without going full. The others thought it was too early.
