Ponferrada 2014 World Championships, Sep. 21st-28th

[phanatic]

Awesome podium; three of the most successful riders this season. Hopefully Sagan can rediscover his winning ways for next year.

 

[MBotero]

Epic ride from Kwiatkowski he played this to perfection.I'm glad he got this,fully deserved.

 

[GuyIncognito]

what a disgrace that kwiatkowski has to stand on a podium next to these two suckers.

Quite the opposite. They have to stand there looking ****ed. It's awesome.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

My goodness no one will shut up the Kwiatasssniffbandwagon now.

May the curse be with you!!!!!!

My thoughts exactly. Gilbert working like a madman and the others not even participating is just too sad. Gilbert seemed the best of these guys even.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Kwia should give Gerrans and Valverde the dirty sanchez right there on the podium.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Poland gives cycling class for the rest of the world. Taking the initiative, then Kwiatkowski attacking at a moment nobody expects, and then holding on..

 

[BigMac]

Buuuuuuhhhh. Suckiest WC since like, omg, like, ughhhh EVAAHhhh!

They all worked for 4 kms, then rested the last km for the sprint. Only Gerrans didn't.

Thank god for Kwiatkowski, otherwise would have been a Gerrans / Valverde 1-2

this!

ten chars

This. Thankfully the one guy that seemed to make a race of it at the end got the result.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Wheel sucker Gerrans gets what he deserves. Did not deserve to win that.

 

[Red Rick]

Valverde would have been worse.

Valverde rode exactly as he shoud've done actually

Come on BigMac, just give in to the Kwiat side and join the bandwagon.

 

[Suspicious]

I'm glad Kwiatkowski won. A great year for Polish cycling.

 

[Jancouver]

what a disgrace that kwiatkowski has to stand on a podium next to these two suckers.

He will be laughing at those two suckers from the top! Cant get any better than that

 

[Arredondo]

Disappointing factors:

Cancellara
Sagan
Costa
Spain's tactics
Dutch team in general

And props for Bouhanni, just shows he can do much more then pure sprinting.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Come on BigMac, just give in to the Kwiat side and join the bandwagon.

BigMac misses the Froome love-a-thon he has with Tank91.

Tough last few weeks for ol' Mac.

 

[Eclipse]

I'm not sure whether people are happier that Kwiato won or that Gerrans and Valverde failed to lol

(just kidding, everyone hates them)

 

[IronCQ]

Bravo Kwiat and poles. If this was left to all the wheelsuckers there, we would have slept until 200m. Bravi azzurri, with no punchers, this was the right tactic. No idea what Spain was going to do with 9 men, they just need 1 (Valverde) and leave space for other people with willing to ride. Belgium meh, Germany mah, GB....

 

[whittashau]

Thank god for Italy who at least try to animate the race, and nice work by Kwia for a nicely timed attack.

 

[trevim]

Gerrans what a disgrace of a rider. Sprint for whatever place it is. I'm sorry that Kwiatko has to share the podium with him.
Good job from Rodriguez/Valverde although the last climb looked too late.
Rui Costa didn't had the legs. Period. He should have been closer to the top10. Time to think about next season with calm and without the rainbow pressure.
Hats off to Kwiatko and the entire polish team. Well ridden, well timed attack and taking the win from Gerrans is a plus to me.
Breschel....Can he keep injuries away now that he finally seems to be back in top shape?

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Buuuuuuhhhh. Suckiest WC since like, omg, like, ughhhh EVAAHhhh!

Give it a rest.

 

[Sciocco]

I need Kwia in WC jersey for new avatar.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Disapponting factors:
Cancellara
Sagan
Costa

Cancellara isn't good on these coruses, no disappointment there. Costa was nearly taken down on the climb by Aru swerving. Seemed like Aru had a mechanical.


Can't believe I just defended that guy, but it's the truth.
Sagan, yeah.

 

[dlwssonic]

Gerrans is such a leech honestly. At least valverde took a few turns at the start
Gilbert looked surprisingly strong today
