The Olympic Road Race 2016. Rio de Janeiro. 253km

Fabian still hanging around quite comfortably.

What a great, killer course.

From a distance Kwia looks like he is in a mankini lol

 

[Billopoulos]

Is Purito on the front or at the back of the peloton?

 

[Rollthedice]

Maybe Italy should have attacked with someone else, like Aru. They have an excuse for not working now, but that means that their best domestique is useless and if the winner comes from the break I doubt Caruso has a good chance against the other riders there.

No chance for the Caruso break.

 

[PremierAndrew]

Valverde not looking so comfortable to me

Re:

That climb is a **** bigger than I thought from the profile.

A lot of people on this forum talked down the course.

Rally nice racing sofar, amazing views of the beaches. I´m hoping for a non favourit to win it by a gytsy move.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Roche getting back on there. Not sure if he was dropped or if he went back to the car.

 

[nightfend]

I can definitely understand why Sagan skipped this.

 

[Rollthedice]

If you enjoyed the climb watch the descent.

 

[benzwire]

I'm thinking Purito for the win then immediately retire. Drop the mic, peace out.

 

[SKSemtex]

Kwiatko, made a mystake. He looks good. Should have waited

Course,they do. Doesn't pay not to be a contrarian on such forums. They probably see themselves asthe gadfly on the donkey's backside but that was only the Brasilian futboler, Socrates.

Brotherton stuffing his face again. Bring back Kirby, all is forgiven.

 

[benzwire]

This terrain looks like a jaguar could jump out of the jungle and snag a rider. Great course!

I was thinking the latter. Looked to have got back on quite easily.

Olha que coisa mais linda, mais cheia de graca....

[Brullnux]

Spain have messed up, I feel.

 

[trucido]

Fabian on a good day.

 

[doperhopper]

[Hugo Koblet]

Is it Miguel Angel Lopez who's close to the front?

 

[woodburn]

Froome pulls off when it is his turn to pull.

 

[Punkan]

Cancellara still hanging in there. Impressive.
