jcza Posted April 14, 2014 Share Suppose OPQS wasn't going to cock it up again. Cancellaras only chance was maybe to try get away with 20km to go but the attack by Sagan ended that plan. Even if he chased Terpstra I still believe OPQS would have secured the victory. Obviously Terpstra is currently on form. Well done Looking forward to the Amstel Gold Race The Dutch Classic Amstel Gold Race has a character all of its own: twisty and narrow roads, short and steep climbs, and crazed orange-clad fans. The first of three Ardennes Classics is a race to watch and one for the riders to add to their palmarès. The relatively new classic (this year celebrating its 48th edition) starts in Maastricht and ends with three circuits on the Cauberg. The first two times up the 1.5-kilometre climb splits the race into select groups, while the final ascent decides the race winner. Home teams Belkin and Giant-Shimano will go all out to make their presence felt in this race, but in recent years they have fallen short of the victory. Italians have made this race theirs since Erik Dekker last won for Rabobank and the Netherlands in 2001. DARK KNIGHT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted April 14, 2014 Share Fight for podium Sagan had several technicals and had to chase down the main bunch at least twice.Then attacked several times.He had good legs. And, importantly, had no teammates to back him in the final 2 hrs or so.So, superb top 10 spot for him.

Jakkals. Posted April 14, 2014 Share He has had 6 second places this year so far. Rainbow stripes does have impact on one i'd figure. however, nino has been winning all year last year with the stripes, just some bad luck yesterday. Costa should be one for the classics, not GT's. I hope Gilbert could regain some of the form he had in 2011/2012. was great to watch him animate the races. Think Impey will come good in maybe one of the classics.
