'Dale Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 To change the subject slights.. Well, the ladies do race the spring classics.. but where is Vos, she hasn't been racing much.. and so far none of the classics???She's taking a lengthy time out to recover from a recurring hammie niggle
Nibali Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Tom Boonen out on his bike this morning. He left at 09h30 for a planned 150 km ride with 8 of his teammates on the Flanders course. "I'll see how long I can ride," he told the SportWereld paper as he headed off. Watch his Twitter feed for feedback after the ride... These guys are on another level of tough hey...
Gen Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 These guys are on another level of tough hey... That is no lie hey.
dev null Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 I am trying to convince my boy to move to Belgium after his studies so he can be part of this cycling culture. Maybe I can then go and visit him every now and then. It will be like going back to his roots. One can only try though. The Belgium weather will surely toughen him. You must be nuts to ride a bike in heavy crosswinds and on mud invested cobbles.

I'd rather move to SA You just described myself and my son to a T. He is exactly like that. Yes, we are from there a few generations ago. A certain cycling shop in Belgium has our surname.

tombeej Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 These guys are on another level of tough hey... Absolutely. Check Matti Breschel's tweet from Gent-Wevelgem:
Gen Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Absolutely. Check Matti Breschel's tweet from Gent-Wevelgem: from another planet..
dev null Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Is there somewhere a list of the riders for PR? I find only a list of the teams.
tombeej Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Is there somewhere a list of the riders for PR? I find only a list of the teams. I'm sure the teams will only announce final start lists for PR after the final casualty list has been tallied for De Ronde this weekend.
Nibali Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Absolutely. Check Matti Breschel's tweet from Gent-Wevelgem: Shiiiiiiiittttttttt... I will never again complain that I am hurting on the bike!

dev null Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 I somehow still favour Lars Boom for a podium or win at PR. Would like to see how he goes with the Rondte.
