Ronde van Vlaanderen: October 18th, 2020

WVA down... Damn... Nothing serious though... I don't think they should let Movistar participate in cobbled classics

EDIT: Movistar NOT at fault here, just WVA falling asleep from the slow pace...

 

[spalco]

Van Aert crashed.

His own fault it looked like to me.

But he seems more embarrassed than hurt.

 

[SafeBet]

Well at least this year one of his teammates is waiting for him.

 

[TomLPC]

Landed on the grass, but it's accumulation he does not need

 

[Faserr]

Havy crash into the ditch. He seems ok though.

 

[sir fly]

Some of them hit the ground only 'cause of the panic.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

He didn't seem to transfer his computer to the new bike, as so many others do.

 

[TomLPC]

Eddie Landis going for it

 

[ice&fire]

Eddie Landis going for it

Eddie's going for a contract

 

[tobydawq]

I think if he'd smashed into the ground face-first, and was currently on his way to hospital, then laughing would definitely have been wrong. He didn't, he's still in the race, and looks quite okay.

Of course.

 

[TomLPC]

Uh oh, the train is on the tracks, Eddie Bos brilliantly timed attack after all!!!

 

[Eclipse]

Next level timing from Eddie hahaha

 

[TomLPC]

Absolute abortion of a train stoppage/restart! 2/10

 

[SafeBet]

Lol EBH must have friends at the Belgian Rails. He knew what was coming.

 

[spalco]

Hahaha, railway crossing stope are always fun.

Great timing by ebh

 

[DenisMenchov]

Iq 200 move by Eddy Boss

 

[Red Rick]

And they say trains couldn't win in one day classics

 

[RedheadDane]

That was a fast train!

 

[TomLPC]

They're all on the path, does it matter with no spectators?

 

[richwallone]

That's just stupid... So they close it but the train isn't coming???

 

[Faserr]

Boassen hagen studied the train shedule before the race. Perfect preperation.

 

[Googolplex]

Was it red already for EBH?

 

[Eclipse]

That's just stupid... So they close it but the train isn't coming???

I think the train passed but they were supposed to wait for an official restart rather than kind of just pushing through after (presumably in case there was another train immediately after or something)?

 

[RedheadDane]

UAE guy getting caught on the wrong side of the barriers...

 

[richwallone]

I think the train passed but they were supposed to wait for an official restart rather than kind of just pushing through after (presumably in case there was another train immediately after or something)?

In that case that was a fast train... They only lost about 45 seconds...
