hmm - so are we up for a new debate about which is better - GT's or the classics?

Waiting for Stage 3 .... and for Paris-Roubaix

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

the TLR body and Boom Body are not in competition, rather we both strive to organize great races.

..or we both have too much free time, or more likely are very good employees at our respected work places

Paris-Tours, Milan-San Remo, and the Scheldeprijs for me!

mmm... MSR might be a tad too tough, you're no cavendish

With his evasive posting style, and withholding of the truth, JV has contributed more to the perpetuation of the clinic than any other poster. Whether that's good or not, who knows?

BTW, where are my glasses?

Also, Hell is other people. That being said, Wonderlance is the Babe Ruth of CN forums.

Hehe. Libertine as a sprinter!

Oh the humanity!

 

[Michielveedeebee]

A little try for MSR, here goes:

With April and spring looming it's time for the first Monument of the season, La Primavera, Milano-San Remo.

The favourites for today's race:
Libertine Seguros (Team Enigma) - Very fast finish, but has trouble getting over Capo Berta

El Pistolero (Team Argue) - If he and his teammate D_T don't pull eachother of their bikes he might very well win this

Zamasailo (Team Italy) - This young and promising Italian will have a great team at his disposal with TheoSheva as road captain

Onem@n@rmy (Music Team) - This good climbing sprinter will led a strong team with the ever attacking Michielveedeebee (oh yes, I include myself in my own story ) and the strong Kvinto

Outsiders for victory: TLR - Thirteen - Mewmewmew - Jens Attacks - Boomcie

Great confusion at the start! The banned DAOTEC showed up, demanding that he was allowed to start. The officials Ferminal and Susan Westemeyer pulled him away. He kept screaming in a language unkown to mankind.

Under a bright sun the peloton took of towards San-Remo. After 10 kms Jens_attacks and Thirteen attacked, but the peloton, reminding her impressive victory from a breakaway only a week earlier, did not let them go.

The riders from the Argue Team decided to ride at a frantic pace, but on La Manie team leaders D_T and Pistolero clashed, and started fighting over the outfits the team should wear.

Their race was of course over. Due to the confusion this caused, mewmewmew, TheoSheva and Kvinto got away in the descent. Their lead expanded to 6 minutes until Libertine Seguros got his famous train on the rails.

The leading trio only had half a minute left when they arrived at the Capi.
Kvinto decided that the peloton had come close enough and he accelerated on Mele. Mewmew was the first to react, but the moment she got onto Kvinto's wheels she cramped up. Race over. TheoSheva on the other hand reacted a bit slower and got back to Kvinto. Due to his terrible climbing skills, LS commanded his minions to stop pulling and the lead got up to one minute by the time they had arrived at the bottom of the Cipressa.

Onem@n@rmy sent MichielVeeDeeBee up the road, with Timmy and Thirteen responding his attack. At the top of the Cipressa they had bridged the gap to Kvinto and Theosheva, with the peloton following on a mere 30 seconds. Kvinto gave his last bidon to VeeDeeBee and softpedalled to the finish. TheoSheva tried to go with the new leaders but after being on the front for so long he lacked the strength to react. He let the peloton catch him so the Italian team finally got to work.

VDB, Thirteen and TLR worked together at the front and close to the top of the Poggio Thirteen, who clearly is in Top shape, attacked once again. TLR reacted with VDB in his wheel.

Meanwhile Michele was tearing the peloton apart for team leader Zamasailo and pre-race favourite Libertine Seguros had to let go.

The peloton's deficit was only 15 seconds at the top of the Poggio, thanks to Michele's incredible pull. Thirteen's uncontrolled attacklust got her to fall in the dangerous descent of the Poggio. She escaped unhurt but her chances at victory in La Primavera were gone. At the bottom the gap had extended to 25 second. The Italian team was going full gas to take back Timmy and VeeDeeBee. Zamasailo was last in line with Onem@n@rmy and boomcie in his wheel. When the peloton got as close as 5 seconds Timmy attacked once more. VDB let go, hoping for a better result in RvV 2 weeks later.

Alone, Timmy didn't stand a chance against the Italians.

This Primavera was clearly going to end up in a bunch sprint. Without LS contesting the sprint, this one was everyone's for the taking!
With 500 m to go Zamasailo was getting the perfect lead-out but as this was his first Monument as team leader, the young sprinter succumbed to the stress and went way to early with still 350 m to go.

Onem@n@rmy jumped out of Zama's wheel with 200 m to go and thought he was victorious! Raising his arms into the air, he realised he had just made the biggest mistake a cyclist can make. Cheering too soon.
Parrulo, who clearly survived the hills well(not the expectations!), really came out of nowhere to take the biggest win of his life!

Aw I only got 4th in Amstel Lolled

 

[Angliru]

this has to be one of the best posts ever on this forum. its hilarious, libertine as top sprinter riding for the big bullies and el pickle getting into a fight just because he wants to really made me laugh

I'm looking forward to the rest of the stages! Maybe after the season is over where there's a void of action and news he could give us a stage by stage.

 

[Anonymous]

tsk tsk onem@narmy losing a race like that was deplorable...
our team have a new rider....damiano machiavelli { the hard man, watch out if there is any argy bargy}
team clinic should also have a team polish working with raceradio

that'd be great.

 

[Havetts]

Great post Michiel!

 

[Libertine Seguros]

mmm... MSR might be a tad too tough, you're no cavendish

I'll claim I can do it, regardless of form, prevent my team's other sprinter who is in much better form from racing it, and then blow up embarrassingly in the race.

To be honest I felt like I did well to last as long as I did. Maybe I was a bit optimistic in saying I could do it, but I've achieved every other goal I've set out for myself so far. Roll on Scheldeprijs.

Awesome VDB.
___________________________________________________________

After the race boomcie was completely overcome with emotion, but still sounded remarkably lucid.

"I still can't believe I just finished 3rd in such a major race. I never knew I had this in me. Everybody feared Libertine, but I told my team to ride their own race and stay close to me on the Capi. When my DS told me Libertine had to let go I knew there were some chances for me. I decided not to respond to any attacks and let the Italians lead the pursuit. On the Poggio I toyed with the idea of attacking, but I wisely suppressed that thought.

In the sprint my positioning was sub-optimal and I had to pass a few riders in order to get into Parrulo's wheel. By then I had already wasted too much energy to be able to beat him on the line.

I'm just happy to be on the podium and will definitely enjoy the Champagne and podium girls."

The talented Belgian continued by commenting on the shape of some of his rivals and couldn't resist making an insulting remark about Dekker Tifosi.

"Some riders have definitely impressed me. Thirteen looked incredibly strong and VDB is also on track for the cobbled classics. With "Team argue" out of contention I felt really good today. I would just like to stress how nice it is to be able to enjoy cycling without having to listen to D_T's bull **** all day."

Absolute instant classic.

you are a cycling here imo.

veedeebee nice however if i keep losing you people gonna be in some serious trouble with the mafioso.

I will attempt to do so, just gotta hope I don't succumb to laziness.

Haha! Now that's a first. Lots of ppl have said I'm stupid, and sometimes I'd agree. But noone has ever said I threw away a monument.

But yeah, I thought I had it, and I really really really wanted it, but Parrulo was just too strong and he just came around me. He just came out of nowhere.

My main targets for the season are Giro Tour and maybe worlds after a rest.

Awesome. Safe from prosecution ánd badass.

 

[thirteen]

i will never stop attacking!

it is in my blood (along with some tequila, which is why i scored off the charts of the doping index). it is what i live for.

you will never be safe from my attack (well, as long as i'm on the bike ).

i will attack, attack, and just when you think you're safe, i will attack again.

just remember these three words as long as i am in the peloton: don't look back!
