Ronde van Vlaanderen 2026, monument, April 5 (men's)

[Ulle97]

Are the cobbled wet??

 

[Tim Cahill]

Incident because they are acting like they’re about to head onto the muur rather than this home bargains cobble section.

 

[No Excuses]

Come on, Mikel

 

[Salvarani]

Bjerg has done well

 

[Squire]

Bjerg confirming that everybody starts looking like Marc Soler when on the front of the UAE train.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

First start for Mongolia in the Ronde today!

He's doing a good job in the break!! Top stuff

 

[KoopaCycling]

Back from food, i take it nothing happened this early on in the meantime

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Split on this first cobbled sector, but it shouldn’t be hard to come back

 

[the asian]

Sainbayar ftw. Come on boys.

Dude would have won by a mile if it was a horse race.

 

[Brullnux]

I've heard a rumour that Pogacar wants to attack on the first Oude Kwaremont this year. Felt like last year was too easy so wants a new record

 

[Squire]

Entire Cofidis team in the second group.

 

[Stelvio]

2006 Cancellara won and his chasers Gusev, Hoste and Van Petegem got DQed because they ignored the commissaires at a Train crossing with 10k to go, the group with Boonen behind them got held up.

There was also the 2015 incident where riders forced their way through the barriers just a few seconds before a TGV passed with no DQs

[QueenStagiaire]

Some riders are really desperate for their pee break, stopping next to the spectators

 

[No Excuses]

MvDP placing Remco as 2nd favourite

 

[Squire]

A shame there aren't any really strong riders in the morning breakaway. With this gap they could have gone quite far.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Drizzling again, with the two most nervous fights for positioning incoming before first Kwaremont and the Eikenberg

 

[dobrien]

I know it’s mainly for purists but for me not much in sport beats watching RVV and PR right from the start; I love soaking in the whole thing and watching the story unfold over the hours, watching the group inevitably thinning and the number of riders involved in each part of the race becoming fewer and fewer, seeing if you can derive clues early on as to who might be having a great, or bad, day, etc. And I really enjoy watching the workers putting in the hard kilometers; some phenomenal rides are done on these days that aren’t seen by folks only tuning in for the finale. Some editions are riveting, some are yawns, but I never tire of it.

 

[Boehmand]

Entire Cofidis team in the second group.

Except for Zamperini in the break

 

[search]

Zambanini throwing his stuff towards the kid just ahead of the car approaching from behind could have easily ended badly there

 

[dobrien]

Bjerg has done well

Yes he has! Nice ride from him today.

 

[Boehmand]

Some riders are really desperate for their pee break, stopping next to the spectators

"Hold this please"

 

[Brullnux]

30km/h winds with gusts of 50km/h is not easy conditions

 

[Boehmand]

A shame there aren't any really strong riders in the morning breakaway. With this gap they could have gone quite far.

Dillier could keep riding until the sun explodes

 

[Boehmand]

30km/h winds with gusts of 50km/h is not easy conditions

I wonder about that.

I read it, I hear the commentators saying it, but when I look at the grass and the trees next to the road, I see very little movement.

 

[memyselfandI]

Who we have this female duo in HBO Max live atm? No familiar voices for me..
