WT - Amstel Gold Race - Sunday 14 April 2013

[Netserk]

Spilak attacks. And caught...

 

[Roude Leiw]

Is Andy still in the race?

No, went home

 

[Netserk]

And Spilak attacks again.

 

[trevim]

Thanks for the info. I thought he would do better

Wrong

[Netserk]

Wrong

10

No I wasn't

 

[Don't be late Pedro]

Yeah, I'm not a big fan, either. I know cycling is one of the toughest sports to commentate on, but still.

It bugs me when he tries to do the faux Euro accents. AAAgh!

He tries to be too formal; almost as if giving a speech or reading a eulogy

You're right, it is as if he has written a script and then just reads bits out. He does seem to know his stuff for the most part but his delivery is pretty dire.

 

[wirral]

Nordog (according to Bri Smithy). I like it.

 

[Ferminal]

Astarloza/Weening FTW plz.

 

[Netserk]

Cannondale chasing.

 

[Afrank]

Cunego having a go.

 

[Swarley]

Cunego attacks on the flat!

 

[Pharazon]

Skyfail here... don't think there is anyone in the peloton from them

 

[jaylew]

Thanks for the info. I thought he would do better

In fairness to him, he was involved in a crash.

 

[Miburo]

So the second time it wasn't spilak but cunego ?

 

[Descender]

Achtervolgers is chasing the lead again... poor guy is always there but never quite seems to get it done.

 

[Der Effe]

Nordhaug ftw!

 

[Parrot23]

Shaping up nicely now.... Gotta take the race to Cannondale/Sagan....

 

[Swarley]

Nice advantage for Astarloza, almost 2 minutes and a half.

 

[xrayvision]

Cannondale, FAIL!!! Anyone else then Sagan pleaaase.

 

[SafeBet]

Break is now 1.40

 

[cineteq]

Cannondale, FAIL!!! Anyone else then Sagan pleaaase.

So did BMC - so it seems

 

[Carols]

is this on tv anywhere in the States? I can't find it on universal sports or NBCsports.

No. It will be shown on beIN on Wed if they keep it on the schedule.

 

[Parrulo]

BMC storming the cauberg!!!

 

[SafeBet]

Break is now 1.40
