Re:

Germany should stop chasing. They've done too much already. Let Norway or Australia bring this back

Yeh we can expect Australia to take this.... Yikes!

Re:

Aussies riding in the true Gerrans spirit, do nothing to make the race exciting, never help anyone anywhere unless you absolutely have to, and then show yourself in the final 5 meters.

Ian Stannard - the mountain that rides...

Re:

Whats up with the tv feed? Aren't the americans supposed to be technologicaly at the top?

yes - if the technology is used for football, baseball, basketball, and nascar auto racing.

Re: Re:

I haven't seen Sagan once all race.
Come to think of it I remember making that exact comment in the finales of the last two worlds too. He becomes Zubeldia in the worlds for some reason

What did you expect him to do? I haven't seen any top contender yet, except Kwiatek, who has a nice bunch of workers with him in the leading group.

It's not a criticism, it's a comment.
Don't be touchy

At some point, "gerro" should sacrifice himself for Matthews. But I'd bet my house that he won't.

True. And I expect him to be even more invisible than the other favorites. He has the least amount of support.

Moreno missed his food.

 

[trevim]

Luckily no Van den Bergh or Terpstra to hand this on a plate to Stannard

It's often so rewarding. Only part about cycling I don't like.

He's not racing for a trade team, so no need to be seen until he wins the sprint

We actually got a good race here today.

 

[SeriousSam]

Viviani winning would be great because it would make so many people furious

 

[doperhopper]

well, there's the whole Zubeldia team in WC - France (the only visible, crashed Alaph')

 

[classicomano]

Gesink has Quebec 2013 legs, shame he has to kill himself.

 

[Kwibus]

Dutch still got 6 in the bunch and 1 in the break while doing all the work today. Respect for Jos van Emden.

I'm going a bit nationalistic today. They actually make me proud so far

 

[Roude Leiw]

Lol, the Italians/Dutch/Belgians shutting down behind

 

[Pantani_lives]

Apparently no one has watched the Vuelta, where Zubeldia was the most aggressive rider.

 

[Afrank]

Interesting tactics game at play in the peloton.

Re:

Still better than Stannard, although the hype would be unbearable either way

Yes. Great race by your men.

 

[b.broadhurst]

Kwiatkowski is strong!

 

[Gigs_98]

Hahaha Haller attacks. I can't believe this

Nothing wrong with being nationalistic for Worlds.
