Sun 11th April: Paris - Roubaix, 259km

[staubsauger]

come on leukemans hold the wheel!

 

[Tom T.]

Boonen needs to be patient and let Sky and Cervelo bring this back...but no, he's chasing. With the energy Cance and Boonen are expending, there might be a chance for the likes Pippo, Hushovd or Flecha.

 

[Lyds97]

Boonen dragging Hushovd, Flecha & Pippo.

 

[The Sheep]

Leukemans I'm rooting for you

 

[Bala Verde]

Canc Solo.... Leukemans is doing great

 

[Pantheon of Greats]

47 km to go is a long way out for an individual attack.

 

[Publicus]

Go upstairs to check on my daughter and all hell breaks loose! Boonen has probably cracked psychologically. This is the third time Spartacus has done this to him.

EDIT: He is NOT going to solo the last 45KM.

 

[Tom T.]

George is gone!!

 

[Lyds97]

Go Leukemans!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Cancellara solo!!!

 

[The Sheep]

wow

 

[Spare Tyre]

Beautiful move by Cancellara ... Boonen at the back, smooth road ... great place to attack.

Now 21".

 

[trompe le monde]

come on leukemans hold the wheel!

That would be awesome if he could, but how can he keep up with the Swiss part-man, part nuclear reactor?

 

[ak-zaaf]

Well, what do we do now?

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

spartacus might just be gone. Anyone else and I would think 40km is too much, but spartacus

 

[issoisso]

Heh. Leukemans angry at Cancellara drafting the motorcycle

He has a point, though. It's a HUGE help.

 

[franciep10]

50 km solo if anyone can sustain it he can do it

 

[Francois the Postman]

extra terrestrial

 

[Bala Verde]

the 4 other favs should work together and get back to spartacus...

should, but will they?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Cancellara 45km against the wind

This must be impossible surely

 

[ingsve]

The biggest threat to Cancellara is probably the headwind. That will favour the chasers.

 

[balkou]

OMG, he's fantastic...

 

[Mellow Velo]

I can't see this lot working together.

 

[Pantheon of Greats]

This is not over yet.

 

[Spare Tyre]

The biggest threat to Cancellara is probably the headwind. That will favour the chasers.

If they start working together ...
