Tour de Luxembourg 2012 : 30.05 - 03.06

[Fetisoff]

Profiles are rather unexciting http://www.aotdl.com/skoda-tour-de-luxembourg-2012/parcours-2012/les-profils/ and no TV coverage it seems ? Wonder why they bother organizing that race...

If we were to cancel every race that has no TV coverage, and has crappy profiles, we'd be left with UCI Europe Tour being smaller than UCI Asia Tour

you are aware that Luxembourg borders the Ardennes and not the Alpes?

according to your logic, we have a lot of races to cancel in Europe.

TV coverage may be restricted to Lux TV, here at least it is well covered.

For the rest, we speak about a race categorized in 2 HC and not a World Tour Race, so feel free to watch Roland Garros instead

With 50 km to go, Voigt attacked

He actually wrote on his twitter yesterday: "Guess Jensie Attack tomorrow", so no big surprise there

 

[Roude Leiw]

has now over a minute....

 

[Fetisoff]

Is there a ticker or something?

 

[Captain Sensible]

The presentation of Jakob Fuglsang and Fränk schleck was funny, when the announcer presented Jakob as the man who cried when felt for missing the Giro, while Fränk followed the example and cried while falling in the Giro.

LOL just reading that has made my day I was laughing so much even the wife had to ask what it was I had read.
