Right, because nobody cares about that race, which makes all the domestiques being blown away early, making it a long fight between famous riders, which makes most people think it's a good race, while in reality it's just because all the other riders are bad, not in shape or don't care.

Wasn't that the reasoning you used.

I think you're joking but otherwise, you're a worse troll than Crash Bandicoot.

By the way: Flèche Wallonne by far. There are attacks in that race, people just don't seem to think they count since they figure they will be futile (which they always end up being), which is a flawed logic.
There are also attacks in flat Tour stages. We don't count them because we're not fanboys like you. Scheldeprijs is a much better race than FW.

How surprising you have that opinion. How even more surprising you're floating that opinion after the first time the Scheldeprijs has been entertaining. How even, even more surprising that the most blinded, manipulative zealot on this forum are accusing others of fan-boyism... :rolleyes:

Well, todays Scheldeprijs was surely more interesting than any Flèche Wallone I've ever seen.

You've clearly never watched the Scheldeprijs then. 2006 was great for instance. Maybe you should start watching races where Valverde doesn't start.

I didn't think you cared about cycling before 2009.

Honestly, no I haven't watched that particular race much. The concurrent stage of Itzulia is a bit more interesting to me, whether or not Valverde participates (and whether or not he participates in Scheldeprijs...).

2006 Scheldeprijs was apparently great because Boonen won, and every race he won was great. There can be no discussion about this.

anyways? each race has certain merit..................ok to drink to excess ...if one falls asleep easy to catch
up with race finish...knowing not much missed
Perhaps because all of them finish with a sprint...

You really ought to get your period key changed.
