[RedheadDane]

Anyone know if the horse is okay?

Anyone know if the horse is okay?

its up and now in group 2

 

[glassmoon]

Great to see Puck doing so well among the big names. Chapeau!

 

[Volderke]

So the race is done? Faulkner will win with 13K to go because women are sleeping (and ofcourse Fauklner is strong, but that should be another reason to chase harder / earlier)?
And Kopecky will say after the finish she had the legs to take Faulkner back, but they messed up with Vollering's chasse patate?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

That was a scary moment for Vollering!

I wasn't sure about Faulkner's shape after she's just returned from a bike holiday in Thailand, but she might still win this. It won't be easy though.

I mean, van Vleuten would be able to close this gap solo with all the other girls on her wheel, right?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Brutal Kopecky attack.

 

[Netserk]

Almost made it, but not quite.

 

[limak_]

In these conditions, men's race might be closer than ever before. Gravel looks as smooth as tarmac.

 

[RedheadDane]

Uttrup exploded...

 

[Volderke]

Finally, we have a worthy finale!

 

[Salvarani]

Cecile completely empty there, so close.

 

[Savant12]

Finally, we have a worthy finale!

Winner has been settled already.

 

[Netserk]

Cecile completely empty there, so close.

Unfortunate to dig so deep on the flat and slightly downhill part that she lacked the reserves for the little hill.

 

[Volderke]

Winner has been settled already.

Kopecky, yes, but I don't mind being a Belgian, and let's admit, here attack was spectacular.

 

[Netserk]

Winner has been settled already.

Yes, Kopecky is unlikely to lose now.

 

[RedheadDane]

The good news (for me) is that I have Kopecky for the prediction game.
The bad news is that so do a lot of others, and my other rider is Uttrup.

 

[Dk one]

Nooo, CUL. Well, she dared to lose, it cost her.

 

[F_Cance]

there's just no fun with this ineos-jumbo-QS superteam called SD worx. Boring money throwing competition

 

[glassmoon]

Did Kristen crash recently or before her attack?

 

[Didinho]

As a Belgian I’m supporting for Faulkner now.

 

[glassmoon]

lol

 

[Volderke]

hahahaha! Seems to be Vollering

the sponsor will like that finish photo

I hope they agreed on sprinting... Because it seems that Kopecky took Vollering with her when attacking, something she will now maybe regret (but on the other hand, she needed Vollering to catch Faulkner)

 

[RedheadDane]

They actually sprinted for it!

 

[Red Rick]

Faulkner might have won that for Kopecky

 

[glassmoon]

Demi won?
