People's Choice Classic: Adelaide East End Circuit, 51km

[Waterloo Sunrise]

I wonder which team will go too early and get swamped - usually 3 or 4 do it.

Sky are a given, but who else - Argos & Lotto would be amusing.

Lol you can tell Chris Anker Sorensen a mile off!

Gilbert's jersey is a bit odd.

Has anyone heard the "Feel the Rush" theme song yet this year? Have they dumped it?

no but let's wait for tomorrow maybe

 

[auscyclefan94]

Lol you can tell Chris Anker Sorensen a mile off!

Yes, it seems odd to see him at the front in a flat stage. He is all over the bike.

thought the same thing, how do you get to WT level and not looked at yourself in the mirror??

Ah, I didn't notice there's an extra thread for this race today, was wondering why nobody was talking about it.

 

[HiCadence]

Super happy now the start of the cycling season is my Christmas

 

[auscyclefan94]

Just letting you know, Adelaide is not that good a tourist destination. Bogan capital of Australia.

[spalco]

Excellent quality, legal stream, great crowds on the road, and most importantly finally road cycling again, what more can you ask for on a sunday morning?

 

[auscyclefan94]

We have to put up with those sorts of times all year to watch European races! Toughen up!!!

 

[HiCadence]

Haha i didn't think of that Aussie sorry! Bit selfish of me that!

 

[jens_attacks]

it was a nice breakaway
now let's see some speed

 

[burning]

Euskaltel is right at the front, will they participate in the sprint?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Euskaltel getting their leadout train organised!!!

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Is it just a criterium race, or is there some sort of hill?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Haha i didn't think of that Aussie sorry! Bit selfish of me that!

Being at night is advantage as well, because it means that work/uni does not interrupt races.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Is it just a criterium race, or is there some sort of hill?

No hills!!!! Criterium.

 

[bubblegum]

don't really understand the 'action' replays, completely get why lay people see cycling as boring

 

[jens_attacks]
