This. He stood still at the last climb and was unable to follow Roth or Jarrier in the flat run-in to the finish.

Given you called him a "no-name" in an earlier post, perhaps he dropped back to avoid winning and thereby offending your sensitivities

Good season from Boivin so far. I'd expect a bigger team to be looking to sign him.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Top 10

1 Roth
2 Jarrier

I think it was Boivin who won the sprint?

You might be right... .

This is his 8th top ten this season! I hope he sticks with Spidertech and see if they can sign some GC riders for next year and get some better Wildcard invites. It would be a shame for Steve Bauer's programme if they lose Boivin like they lost Tuft this year.

I'm so sorry about France3 Brittany stream being geolocalized.
The French are really chauvinistic. It was internationally streamed these last two years ...


I couldn't have watched it, this year. But at least you had the final 9 k's.

Missed it too, couldn't get away with a morning ride and watching the race! Solid effort and finish from Blain. Show's what some people know.

Why is everyone saying good job to Boivin when Roth won the race?

Because Boivin is quite young and to do in this race at such a young age is good achievement I guess. And probably many have him in their CQ Game too.

The winner deserves some credit never the less!

Anyway, congratulations to the winner. Don't really know him, but I've heard his name a few times before.

Ironically I fell asleep straight after Amstel Gold rather than during it. Hope there are highlights on cyclingtorrents soon.

Congrats to Roth. His team also showed strength in Boivin getting 3rd.

So close with the Demare pick.
