[Alexandre B.]

Silin and Trofimov (Team Katusha) in the last Dauphine. Westra caught them in the last meters and won.

I was momentarily confused as to what sort of full *** we are talking about here

 

[happytramp]

I'm thinking of starting a poll to decide if the phrase "full ***" is being overused.

Evans afraid of losing time to Frank Schleck ahead of a 53km TT is just awesome

Taaramae was the race leader though, so Cofidis might have ridden for the gc,

That was a good one.

Yeah, and it is quite a short distance from the last climb to the finish so not really enough space to work over the rest

Can't find it now: downhill finish in the Vuelta that saw Nibali and three teammates manage to deliver the stage victory to (I think I remember it as) Lastras.

I'm sure one of you will remember the details.

Sagan won that stage but Nibali failed to beat his teammate to get bonifications.

It wasn't half as bad as today's meltdown. At least Sagan, Nibali's teammate at the time, won that stage. Lastras was second. Cannondale's tactical meltdown occurred due to one of Nibali's other teammates outsprinting him, so Nibali did not get a time bonus (not that it mattered as he finished the Vuelta in 7th (if I remember correctly).

Haha, Sagan won but Agnoli panicked and sprinted for 3rd and pick up the 8 bonus seconds instead of Nibali.

That was back when Sagan was a machine. First he left gap in front of himself to Nibali and Agnoli (I think) that Lastras had to close and in the sprint he was just chilling, looking to the side all the time to see if Nibali could come around Lastras and then kicked in the last 50 metres to Secure the stage win.

Thanks for the correction to my ailing memory (and also to the two that preceded you): that's why I couldn't find it, as I was searching for it as a win by Lastras (or some other Movistarite)

Yes, but as far as I remember the Katusha riders were cooked and just couldn't hold Westra's wheel when he caught them.

How does this compare?

Schlecks vs. Gilbert at LBL 2011?

And not teammates, but Roche and Criquielion frittering away their lead in LBL 1987: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlAMGnHx9-U
There is also a writeup of the race here: http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/1987-liege-bastogne-liege-161

 

[nepetalactone]

Schlecks vs. Gilbert at LBL 2011?

Gosh, just watched that again as it had been awhile (2011?). The Schlecks' tactical accumen really leaves something to be desired. What's the point of being in the winning move if you won't even try...?

Frey vs Agostinho, Tour de France 1970.
