Re:

The broadcast is a disgrace. Burkina Faso style.

this in addition to terrible stream options and even more idiotic commentary ruins this race totally. argh.

 

[GuyIncognito]

IMO this is the best WC road race for years

It usually ends in anti climax Matthews

Precisely what I've been thinking. If Matthews wins this I'm going to be quite angry.
The man has never made a move in his life, he's Gerrans v2.0

Yeah. He is even worse than Gerrans in terms of wheelsucking. I've never seen him taking a pull.

I've never seen Gerrans take a pull either, to be honest.

That's not a jab, it's a fact. I've seen him win stages from breaks where he doesn't take a pull.
He would quite literally be the defending world champion if he had taken a single pull last year instead off freewheeling and gesturing 'come on, move around' whenever he found himself on the front of the final attack.

Re: Re:

Where IS Sagan?

There he is

Only rider I can like with winning after doing nothing. He allready lost sooo much by doing too much.

 

[The Blues]

Re: Re:

@Nibali
I don't think he'll feature too much in the finale, either. Also, he seems to be working for Viviani and Trentin right now.

Edit: Quoted wrong person.

 

[shalgo]

I fear this race will be like Geelong--lots of attacks only to be won by a Norwegian who has been invisible until the final 50 meters.

 

[Rollthedice]

This is like an American movie, lots of plot twists but the same expected end.

 

[sir fly]

A timely flyer is a strong possibility.

 

[TMP402]

Double Belarussian win!

That still wouldnt change the fact that the rest was awesome

 

[Brullnux]

Aus are there

 

[Afrank]

Kiry wants rainbow in all races he enters.

 

[BlackWhiteEagle]

And Kriistoff wins...

 

[GuyIncognito]

So, sprint?

Who wins? Australia? Germany? Norussia?

 

[Kwibus]

Lol! Belgian commentary when USA rider went.

Is that Brookwalter . I think so.... Wait it is Farrar. Reaction by other commentator "mother of god.... Mother of god.."

Matthews learned from the master.

Does anyone know if valverde is still there.

 

[Rollthedice]

Re:

Valverde third.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Re: Re:

Valverde third.

Is Lobato still there? Being serious, Valverde will lead out if Lobato is

 

[Brullnux]

Farrar is alive

 

[glassmoon]

Is that Farar? He can put Kiri on the ground... literaly.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Nice hair Farrar. For a second I wondered what Evie Stevens was doing here

 

[Carols]

Italy riding for Ulissi?

Re:

How cool would it be if Boonen just Flanders away on the second climb?

Very cool indeed.
